Definitions

In your own words
define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:

 

Role-playing: The act
of assuming another identity in order to fit a fictional or different world and
play a role. For example instead of adressing myself as Katalion I adress myself as Amras. Also I act as Amras and separate myself from Katalion.

Meta-gaming:  I consider meta gaming as an apropiate set of
non official code that helps you play the game efficiently.Though not the only game to play the game it is in most games the most commonly used and taught. For example the meta-game in World of warcraft states there must be a dps, healer.. etc. Of course these guidelines are not to be followed obligatory.

Power-emoting: An
action done by the roleplayer and it is expressed by text instead of in game
actions. Very useful and adds to any roleplaying experience. Another pwer emoting definition could be the projection of in game actions using  a special text language.For example *Amras gets accepted into LOTC* or *Amras drinks an elvish coke*. Though this may add to the experience of the rp, power gaming can lead to the contrary.

 

In-Character
Information:

Complete the following
biography on your character:

 

Full Name: Amras Yávëtil

Current Age: 112

Sub-race (if any):
High Elf

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):

 Born of a sentinel and a loving mother, Amras grew up in the outskirts Haelun'or

 

 Born of a sentinel and a loving mother, Amras grew up in the outskirts Haelun'orthe guidance of the ways of the house of galleon(not taught by royalty but influenced by its culture), his childhood was one of books and reading and bathe himself everyday with knowledge from ancient times. Has a segregation believer and a strong enforcer of elf right to dominate and rule he was
displeased with the current governance of the realms of the elves. This strong ideal was reinforced strongly by a scarring event; The death of his loving mother Caladriana by human bandits. Hes emotional and rational influenced ideals set the tone for his current life.

 

 

As a 30 year old elf he trained sometimes on his bowman skills and enjoyed farming but his true passion, the Lore made most of his spare time more ocuppied. He currently resides anywhere he can find knowledge and books. With a deep hatred hidden inside for humans he finds himself dealing with this race almost daily. He is in love with the forest still so he does not go very far from his homeland but stays far enough so that he can maintain a low profile and someday jump into the politica scene. He right now maintains a residence somewhere in the  elven forests reading and gathering knowledge.

 

(Dont take my lack of storytelling for a lower writting skill, I just feel a lore lovers life can be quite un eventful until he has some kind of political position or ranking).

Ambitions for the Future: Enforce the domination of the high elves along all the realms and achieve power through knowledge and wisdom. Not really aspires to rule but rather to achieve his views through anyone. Though he knows its slow process he is willing to the little things to one day get to the top of his potential. He also wishes to be a pupil of High Elf Mage Kalenz Uradir

Personality: Quiet, patient and condescending to everyone around him.
Though he is very loving of his own keen he believes in the segregation of
races and the supremacy of the high elves as a right since the days of Ellir. He is strong willed  and 
wise in most of his decisions.

Skills: A decent archer and strategy man with potential. He is also a lore lover and
prefers to stay away from the front lines of battle where he is most useful as
a tactician. A fluid speaker  with the potential to be a great orator. Loves politics and complex goverments. Also shows interest in exploring topics like telekinesis.

Any other details you wish to share about your character:

 

Im still learning most of the lore and I want to develop this character as a Lore master and and strong High elf supremacist. Personally I see this RP server as  true challenge for my wrting and acting skills. Im pumped and ready to enter the world and make it a better experience, meet people and just have the greatest minecraft time Ive ever had.
 

 

 

Open-Response-Questions

Each question in this section must be
answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.

 

____

 

1. As you walk through the
deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize
that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?

As I see the events
unfolding infront of me I stand steady, as a current traveler but high elf none
the less I approach the event and greet my kinsmen. The elves, knowing im of
theyre keen, gladly invite to join this affair. “I would join in the mocking of
an elf when there are no other dwarves or humans to mock “. My fellow elves
stare blankly and just nod half willingly. One of the elves responds a few
seconds later “ Surely you are an elf of strong ideals,  but its only a fun business we have with this
wood elf. “. I nod and toss a half smile as I salute and carry on my traveling
through the outskirts of the High elvish stone walls. On the way back to my current resident I think of unity amongst elven people and how can this be achieved. I spent all the night thinking of the mocking a wood elf.

 

Answer:

 

2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across
a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading
coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?

        Knowing he is not of my race I inspect
the man from mid distance as I call for a response from the ill man. “Please
help me “ the man says. I unwillingly help him to hes feet and grab the puch of
gold coins with two fingers and quickly press it against the man’s chest. “Old
man, though my pitty for you may save you this day, a better care of the places
you wander too may save you next time”. The man unresponsive just thanks me for
helping him and offers a reward.” Here elf, I hope a few coins can pay for you’re
troubles”. Wanting to carry on through the woods, I just turn my back and walk
gracefully away only to warn the old man once again.” Hide you’re coins and be
on you’re way back to home for elven woods are less fair with a human and his
stick droping he’s earnings around this smooth leaves and grass.” I wonder away
and quickly forget about the encounter".

 

 

 

 

(The currency is Minas but for the sake of the question I use the term gold coins)

 

Answer:

 

3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored
carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your
character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion
involved).

 

Answer:

“Tell me merchant,
what trinkets would you trick into buying today?”..”Trinkets? My good elf I’m
here selling knowledge and that is no trinket to any wise being of this land”.
I inspect the books that he shows to me and smiles as I take some coins from my
pocket. “ Forgive me merchant for I mistook you for a mischief dealer rather
than a salesman of such potent artifacts, now, I don’t intend to haggle with
you so state you’re price and I will take away half of the books you carry”.
The merchant responds eagerly “10 coins in total from these three books, if you
don’t mind paying such a fair cost”. I pay the merchant and bid farewell as I
but the books on a bag I carry hanging from my right shoulder”

Not a bad first attempt, but there are a few mistakes.

 

• Your definitions for meta-gaming and power-gaming are incorrect. 
• Your biography needs to be expanded upon slightly. You should add some events or descriptions of your child life so I get to know your character better.
• There are some blatant spelling and grammar mistakes, brush through the application and fix some of them.
• Your ORQ's need to be expanded upon slightly, adding detailed dialogue and actions of your character so I can better understand your knowledge of how to role-play.
• Here is the High Elf wiki page if you wish to learn more about High Elves: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=High_Elves
