Definitions

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

 

Role-playing: Acting as someone or something else in a realistic fashion.  For example, you are a gamer that lives in your basement and plays on a minecraft server acting like a mythical being in a mythical world. ;)

Meta-gaming: Having your character knowing something that he/she would realistically have no way of knowing.  For example, You're a bar tender and you join in on a customer's conversation about being a medical expert.

Power-emoting: A similar fashion to godmoding, or being unrealistically powerful for who you are.  For example, if someone kills you, you say that your ghost suffocates them causing them to die and them let you have their belongings.

 

In-Character Information:

Complete the following biography on your character:

 

Full Name: Jack Shadow

Current Age: 22

Sub-race (if any): N/A

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): When I was young, at the age of 16, I had worked with my father at a lumber mill.  After about two years of working with him a fatal accident  occurred and he had been killed instantly. I was never too joyful from that day on...  Soon after I took command of the mill and grew to love inventions.  I would create useless tools to myself but I could always sell the crafts to miners or  entrepreneurs.

       At the age of 19 I left my widowed mother to find a home for myself.  I ended up traveling until the age of 22 (I plan to pick up the story their) to begin my biggest adventure yet...

Jack is a skinny, but strong, moderately sized brunette male.  He has a rigid face with many scars from work on his lumber mill and uses a self-crafted face mask that also works as a respirator.  There are also goggles located on his forehead for when he is welding/working with flames when crafting inventions.  He also has contracted a similar version of the Black-Spot Variation plague at the young age of 4, and visited the monks of the Cloud Temple to relive the harsh disease.

Ambitions for the Future: Get a place to live and invent creations for a living.

Personality: Dark/shy but friendly.

Skills: Inventing/innovating/creating items.

Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):   http://mcss.me/veal12

Any other details you wish to share about your character: N/A

 

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 would simply watch and see what the commotion is from a distance.  It would be a bad idea to get involved with the dark clothed figure and try and aid him/her at the capitol.  It would also be a bad idea to try and engage the figure and help the guards, in case they thought that I WAS aiding him/her.

 

 

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 longsword, how do you react?

 

Answer:  Upon witnessing the events, I would make haste towards the bandits and attempt to hail them.  If they react hostilely towards me, I would be prepared to lunge my sword through the closest bandit and attempt to rearm in time for the other assailant.  Upon defeating the bandits (if fate would so like to go that way) I would contact the old man in hope for a reward.  If they hailed without hostility I would then begin to commmunicate to them: "What are you doing to this elder?.  He does not deserve to be robbed!".  They would then begin to tell me that they had to make ends meet somehow, and I would gladly volunteer some coin to help the old man and hope for a reward from him.

 

 

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 look down at his wares and notice a particularly decorated war hammer lying awkwardly on the table.  "I'l take the hammer for say...  12 gold..."  The stand keeper looks at me wide eyed. "You're mad if you think i'l give up the weapon for such a meager price," pulling it closer to him.  I then withdraw a blade from my cloak and continue to barter,"It's 12 gold... or no gold...".  He stares at me about to scream and I pull the blade out further.  He quickly hands me the hammer in exchange for the gold.  I retreat quickly into some of the capital's back alleys just in time to escape the guards approaching the stand.

Unfortunately your application has been denied. Below are suggestions I have listed that you should implement into your application before reapplying.

 

Your meta-gaming definition still isn't entirely correct.

 

I'd still like you to expand on your biography. Adding things such as important events in your character's life or specific cities pertaining to your character's race may be helpful and easy to implement.

 

Describe your character in more detail. With what you have said I do not really get a good picture of how he looks, thinks, and acts. Add onto that and explain even the minor details. They can help a lot when describing your character in general. Painting the reader a picture when listing the tenancies and personality as well as look of your character can be an enormous help when trying to understand what your character is.

 

Expand on all three of your definitions and add more dialogue throughout.

 

Please wait 24 hours from this denial post before reapplying. If you have any questions don't be afraid to send me a message.
