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 addressing myself as Katalion I address myself as Amras. Also I act as Amras and separate myself from Katalion. Meta-gaming: Meta gaming occurs when a player takes an action based on knowledge that the character shouldn’t know or can’t know. It ruins the rp and is frowned upon. An example of this can be when a player’s character is an orc miner that suddenly knows many things about elven culture and lore without realistic access to writings. Power-emoting: Power emoting occurs when a player uses the emoting language to do an action preventing the other individual from reacting or does an action that is unrealistic with lore, his character or the physics of the world. Example: *Joe runs toward him and breaks Billy’s neck before he can even blink.”In-Character Information:Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Amras Yavetil Current Age:101 Sub-race (if any): High ElfPast / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Born of an educated father and a traveling charity worker mother Amras was raised in fairly unconventional circumstances. Raised in a combination of places due to the professions of both parents Amras was influenced not only by High Elf traditional culture but has been exposed to cultures of all elven sub-races. Though he would later differ from the philosophical views of both parents he quickly gained a love for books from his father’s small collection. He adored stories from Past events and battles in Aegis and tales of the conflicts between the races that inhabit Asulon. From his mother he inherited a kind approach to beings and a serene disposition to help those in need. During his still young filled 20’s he traveled to Menorcress with his father as he was interested in the studies of the culture of the Mori. In a time where the region was plagued with small skirmishes over domain and to this day is still contested, he’s father was almost killed in the feud the ensnared the region. Amras saw from afar the different conflicts inside the elven races and from this time on he would dedicate his thoughts to refining and uniting the elven races through a philosophical supremacist view he would later adopt. Most of his time in high elven cities he was spent in the reading of literature, manuals, history and the all-round gathering of knowledge. In his mind grew his dislike for the “impure races” and most of this thought went in accordance with the High elven culture to which he owed his heritage and would call home after his father stopped travelling and settled in the outskirts of Haelun’or. His supremacist position grew exponentially though he identifies himself like a revolutionary thinker in terms of reorganizing the current High elven government to what he calls the Wise Reform. Amras in his present 100 years of life has already developed a good sense and understanding of the political, historical and philosophical backgrounds of his race and is in deep frustration of the current government system often rejecting the effectiveness of the council and its activities. He is showing an interest in war and geography and recognizes that if he is too one day play a role in the history of elves in Asulon he must also learn of such topics. A promoter of education and philosophy he knows that his base of operation and goal residence is Sylvenor and plans to develop even more his mind and refine his metal prowess to one day enter the political scene. Ambitions for the Future: -Become a leader politician and spread his views- Unite the elves and reform the current government system through him or other entities- Keep growing in all areas of knowledge and philosophy and someday hold the title of Lore Master- Cleanse the current elven realms of impure races and revitalize the elven population and they’re pride as special beings. Personality: -Quiet and thoughtful -Very condescending with any who speak with him and can be lovable sometimes but is mostly thought to be a bit arrogant-Behind his views an essence of he’s mother’s teachings remain and his empathy to suffering can be a weakness to his strong personality-Though a firm believer in his views he is also a person who listens and loves solving disputes between his fellow elves Skills: -A good learner of lore -Good speaking abilities and good communicator -A strong and agile mind(not in a magical way) -Decent archer -A strategist with potential for war planning Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Amras is 6 foot 10 inches tall with white hair and blue eyes..http://minecraft.novaskin.me/skin/174067/Brett-Perea-High-Elf (updated) Any other details you wish to share about your character: Amras is interesting because the way I think of him is a multi-path character. I still don’t know where he will end up being. Maybe he can change his views or be a Tyrant. He could enter fully the political world or simply be in the background influencing the population. He could be a teacher or a diplomat. I think he is an exciting character and the success of his ambitions may not be his only true desire. I’m ready to enter the world and develop him and be somebody important and part of the lore.Open-Response-QuestionsEach 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 in front 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 their 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 it’s only a fun business we have with this wood elf. “I reply “Mocking and elf is mocking yourself, do not mock yourself but rather improve the part of you that is being mocked. For wood elves are part of the elven body though to me a deformed limb is to be cut, as long as it is part of the body treat it like the whole”. The guards seem to ponder and think of what I just said and stop the activities. One of the guards extends his arm to my shoulder and says” Well said my dear elf” He salutes and so do I as I walk off the area. 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.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? Answer: 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 he’s feet and grab the pouch of gold coins with two fingers and quickly press it against the man’s chest. “Old man, though my pity 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 your 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 your way back to home for elven woods are less fair with a human and his stick dropping he’s earnings around this smooth leaves and grass.” I wonder away and quickly forget about the encounter". On the way back to my current resident I find two sentinels questioning locals about a robbery perpetrated by a human disguised as an old man and how he stole a certain amount of coins. I quickly stare at the ground and revisit my meeting with this old man. I run to the guard and say “ I may know where he could be sentinel but I fear I was fooled by the man’s disguise.” Guard: Is there anything that can help us track him down? Amras: He was wearing an old coat with brown markings and although I didn’t see his face entirely I can now conclude he may be the man you are looking for. Guard: Good, take us there now. Amras: yes of course follow my lead. I lead them to the location of my meeting with the ruffian but he was not found… Amras: Never trust a human…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). Tell me merchant, what trinkets you would 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” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxforbraynz 251 Share Posted April 5, 2013 A pretty good application and I believe you'll fit in with the High Elves just fine. One thing that could use improving is your grammar, though that will improve during your time here, I'm sure. Aside from the skin problem (which has been fixed), this is one of the more accurate High Elven applications I have seen. Places you referenced in your lore are from Asulon. We've moved to a new continent called Anthos. I'm sure you'll adjust just fine though. Though the places are outdated, you did get correct that the Elven government just underwent an overhaul. Welcome to Lord of the Craft! Please wait patiently for a Global Moderator (GM) to whitelist you. After that, your adventure can begin! Have fun!
