*copypaste*

 

Minecraft IGN: Xaephros


Age: 14


Timezone: EST




Roleplaying experience: Started ~1.5 years ago and played on two RP

servers, The Ender Triumvirate and Gerbil Mountain. Both are closed now.


Have you applied to this server before: Yes. Denied because apparently you can't apply as a Kharajyr. Link: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/96088-muriance/




How did you hear about us: Wanted to RP again, browsed the MC Forums, found this page.


What do you think the server will be like: Co-op survival with an emphasis on RPing.


Read and agreed to rules: Yes.


Favorite rule: Always hated the servers where your character permadies

if someone kills it, so I guess it'd be "You don't need to permanently

kill your character when you die."




Roleplaying: A way of playing pretend without feeling like you're 5 years old.


Metagaming: Using OOC knowledge to help your IC character.


Powergaming: Being unfairly overpowered.

 

IC

 

Name: Muriance Hephaestus

 

Race: Dark Elf

 

Gender: Male

 

Age: 50

 

Backstory: Muriance was born into a wealthy family, and his father supplied him with everything he needed to become an elf worthy of high society. Although his family was traditionally a scholarly, sheltered clan, his father decided to give him a more practical education. Although he was still given a classical education, he was also instructed in everything from architecture to fishing to combat. He even learned some of the theory and history of magic, although he had never been so foolish as to attempt it without a guide. [N.B: In the roleplay, this translates to about half of the "base" learning stage of magic. Muriance does not have any skill in actually casting spells. I got the "learning stages of magic" thing from here: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/wiki/index.php?title=Magic) His father eventually decided to send him out into the world at the age of 50, to learn the skills necessary to survive in the world beyond his sheltered home. So, on his 50th birthday, Muriance bid goodbye to his family and set out on the Anthos Highway towards the lands of the humans.

 

Personality: Muriance is friendly and outgoing, with a sarcastic sense of humor. He retains a certain level of suspicion towards humans, having never been inside one of their cities before, but doesn't have a problem interacting with other species.

 

Ambitions: Muriance's primary goal is to better himself, whether it be mental and physical. He also harbors an envy of High Elves, and wishes to eventually be accepted into one of their cities. For now, though, he's content with just surviving and learning.

 

Special skills: He knows quite a bit of the theory of blacksmithing, or building, or even magic, but he has not had much of a chance to put any of his knowledge into practice. He adapts quickly to new environments, and is deadly with a bow.

 

Weaknesses: He is a sub-par warrior, never having much aptitude with a sword. Although he is strong and agile, he cannot put his natural advantages into use in combat. He is also very insecure about failure, and has a crippling fear of caves.

 

Appearance: His skin color is nearly pitch black. His hair is approximately the same shade as his skin, a very dark grey. His eyes are bright green, making them the only spot of color in his body. His taste in clothes is, predictably, black: his clothing is plain, with a woolen shirt and leggings and black leather boots.

 

Anything else: nothing to see here, move along

 

Screenshot: Still working on this. I'll post it as soon as it's up.
