Out-Of-Character Information

 

Please fill out the following questions as accurately as
possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate.

 

 

 

Minecraft Account Name: nnooaahh9

 

How old are you?: 15 years old

 

Time-Zone: Eastern

 

Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I
have read the rules.

 

What previous experience have you had in role-playing?: Not
much for roleplaying, mainly because I have never found a true role playing
server before. I enjoy making personas for myself in regular minecraft servers,
just for fun, and I find roleplaying to be very enjoyable.

friend, who got me very interested in the server.

 

Link any applications that you have previously made for the
server:

 

Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If
not, then please do so (link above):

 

Have you read the Human lore, and shall you ensure you make
use of it and follow it in your biography?: I have read the ancient lore, and
most if not all of the modern lore. I have mentioned a few different items from
the lore in my biography.

 

 

 

Definitions

 

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

 

 

 

Role-playing: Role-playing is the act of assuming the role of
a specific character and deciding what they do or say. The best role players
are people who are completely immersed in their character, and know how to lose
and win fairly without over powering their character. They can stay in
character no matter what happens.

 

Meta-gaming: Meta-gaming is the process of using information
obtained and acknowledged in OOC and applying said knowledge to affect your
character in IC. For example, should you know of an upcoming raid OOCly and
then act accordingly in RP without RP knowledge of the situation. Another
example of meta-gaming is breaking immersion of character and doing something
your character would not normally do.

 

Power-emoting:  Power-gaming is behaving unrealistically and
giving your character unrealistic and sudden advantages with no context or
supporting roleplay. For example, being pinned down and randomly pulling out a
dagger, and using said dagger to insta-kill the assailant. While a dramatic
example, it’s a valid one. Another example is forcing another character to
perform a specific action without asking for confirmation of the action, as in
a man is being robbed, and the robber steals money from the man without a
reply.

 

 

 

In-Character Information:

 

Complete the following biography on your character:

 

 

 

Full Name: Lucio Magni Adelban

 

Current Age: 20

 

Sub-race (if any): human

 

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

 

Sunny and Lucio were separated at
birth. When sunny was born, Lucio was born 2 minutes after, and the wet nurse
decided to separate them. Both were made aware of their father’s identity at
the time of his death, but they never met, as Lucio did not visit his
homelands. Lucio wandered for a long time, striving to survive by himself.

 

Finally, he stumbled into Oren. He
resorted to earning his way into a guard force of Oren. He fought long and
trained hard to obtain average skills with the sword and with the bow. The job
was not rewarding, however, and he became unsatisfied and disturbed with his
job, because of all the thoughtless and pointless murder committed by the
guards.

 

Eventually, Lucio abandoned his job
and began mining in the iron mines, working long and hard hours. He had found a
clock hidden in the rubble of a cave in, with the name of one of the miners on
it. Lucio is disturbed by the realization that many men die without any
recognition so he quits. He goes in search of work, When he heard of a man who
was a Kill on Sight in Salvus; Gat Collard “Sunny” Adelban: The Brittle Man. He
was curious as to the reason for identical last names, so Lucio decided to go
in search of “Sunny.”

 

Ambitions for the Future: my ambitions are to finally
come face to face with my family ties, and understand my ancestry. Also, if any
kinsmen still live, I would like to reunite with them to learn my family’s
past. I have ignored my ties for too long, and it has come back to haunt me.
Also, the cruelty I saw in the streets of Oren need to be put to a stop.

 

Personality: Lucio is sarcastic, obsessive, overly
jealous, and meticulous. He loves to fight, and is very passionate about
anything he gets attached to. He is hard to understand, but is loving to those
who understand him. Very curious, Lucio rarely takes no from anyone, and even
though he is very shy at times, he is increasingly stubborn. He doesn’t take
things at face value, and often tries to understand things that are above him.
While sometimes slow to take action, Lucio will fight until he dies or his
opponent does when provoked.

 

Skills: slightly above average swordsmanship, and
sub-par archery. A basic understanding of the written language, and of history.
Long distance runner, although slow for sprinting. Average stregth, resorting
to use of daggers and short swords.

 

Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your
skin): Blonde, blue eyes, blond beard, pale white skin. http://imgur.com/uK7HAWP

 

 
 

Any other details you wish to share about your
character:

 

Twin brother to Gat Collard “Sunny” Adelban (Jtheo2106), son
of James Adelban and Poppy Leafhelm (Twiddlepop).

 

 

 

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. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a
dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he
is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do
you do?

 

 

 

Answer: I chase after him waiting for him to tire out, while
arming myself with my dagger. When I get close enough to make sure there is no
escape without a struggle, and yell for the guards to come quickly. I question
the person as to his intentions, and I stall while the guards come running.
When the man tries to dash away into the dark alleyway, I follow quickly behind
and throw my dagger at his back, knocking him down and injuring him so that I
can catch up. Finally the guards arrive and are able to help me detain the
dark-clothed figure.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come
across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it
stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two
heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with
leather armour and an iron long sword, how do you react?

 

 

 

Answer: I will stealthily sneak up from behind, and grab one
of the bandits. I will then hold him at dagger point, and promise to hurt the
bandits if they do not leave the old man alone. I will ask them to drop their
weapons, unfortunately resulting in the other bandit attacking me, severely
injuring my left forearm, and causing me to drop my blade. I will then yell at
the old man to escape while I distract them, punch one of the bandits in the
stomach, and sprint away. I will barely get away, with a bad scar as my only
reward.

 

 

 

3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when
you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the
stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says
that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is
willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain:
your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).

 

 

 

Answer: I spy the man, glancing at his wares. I immediately
approach him, noticing the delicious pastries in the corner of his display
case. “How much for those?” I ask the man, my lips already dripping with saliva
as I stare at the food. I salivate frequently, and the merchant can see the
hunger in my eyes. “300 minas for the whole sack,” he says. My eyes grow wide
in shock; who the nether would expect that price. I know he wants to haggle, so
with a sly gleam in my eyes, I demand it for ten minas. The merchant is equally
impressed that I would risk shooting so low, but I can tell he wants to make
some money today. “200,” he starts, “Final offer.” I shake my head and began to
walk away, intentionally making each and every step dramatic, hoping to entice
him to think again. “Alright! 150!” he exclaims. I run back in a hurry: not a
wise move. “80 minas and we have a deal?” He responds immediately, “I will only
go so low as 120.” Fine by me; I just saved 180 minas.

Your application has been...

 

 

 

Hello! After reading through your application, I've decided to deny it for the reasons listed below. Don't be discouraged, however, as I'm sure you will be able to fix it!

 

 

First off, your biography was good, but I would really like it if you expand a bit on it, especially the first paragraph, it's rather bland!

 

Secondly, and this may sound stupid, but I need Jtheo's confirmation that he has allowed you to play his brother! So, please, let him send me a PM and all will be fine. But don't let him eat me, again! :(

 

Finally, your Open Response Questions, actually only the first and second one, need to have dialogue. I want to see your full roleplaying capabilities. Also, I'd much rather have you write them in third person, as that is how we roleplay on the server!

 

 

 

As I said, an amazing application, I was sad when I had to deny it.

 

 

Please re-apply in 24 hours from this post or face instant denial. If you have any questions, feel free to pop me a PM!
