Interesting. Would be curious to see, so best of luck. I refrain from +1 because I dislike the idea of new nations, but best of luck to you anyway.

Accepted. Journeyman Engineer rank.

Maybe in the future, or you could go for Royal Herald, and possibly combine the jobs afterward. Few edits: Yes, wait for the position to be chosen. Application Form will be written up soon, but if you've already applied, don't worry about it.

I'll put my points on my ideas here and be done. I won't argue for them, I just hope they stop to make you think. I think the credits are great for starting people off. It's a decent idea. HOWEVER ------------------ The ability to BUY said credits is the most horrible, HORRIBLE idea I've ever heard. Gamers everywhere with any experience with the online community know the worst, WORST thing anyone can do is as follows... Allow players to BUY power This is a HORRIBLE idea, because then, when it comes down to it, It's NOT Skill, Time, Effort, or determination, the qualities of a good player, that results in a player with good skills. It's about who has MONEY. And that, THAT is my complaint, you are putting a nice little short cut around things that common players must do, GRIND. You basically are stating, 'If you have money, then you are important and better than everyone else. Congratulations.' And even as I may try, I cannot TELL you how astronomically TERRIBLE that is. -------------------- That is my point and idea on the credit system. I will not argue about it. If you don't like me ideals, fine. But I wont change them, so it would be pointless to comment on it. If you do, Well, Good for you, maybe some change will happen.

Out-Of-Character: -Minecraft Account Name: Kale_Forseth -How old are you?: 16 -Time-Zone/Country of Residence: EST, USA -Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes, it is exceptional. -Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I am a generally average 16 year old, except addicted to Minecraft, with a sense of humor. I generally get along well with anyone who doesn't mind me(Some people just can't stand me... Maybe they're allergic?). Outgoing often with what I do, and often end up the peace-maker. -How much time could you be on the server weekly?: 6-7 hours week days, 10 hours saturday, 8 hours Sunday. Total: 48-53 hours. -How long have you played Minecraft?: Since patch 1.5 -What do you know about Roleplaying? What is it?: A lot to say the least. Roleplaying is the act of being someone else, ideally someone who you want to be that you cant. A perfect role-playing senario is where you ARE that charater, and there is nothing to suggest you are someone else. -What do you expect this server will be like?: I belive it will be firm on it's belief in role-play aswell as a experiance I won't forget. -What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: Lord of the Craft. Well, I'm Applying again aren't I? -Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes. -Name the 4 races on this server: Orc, Elf, Human, Dwarf. -How did you hear about us?: I've been playing for a while. -What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?: Royal Engineer Kalen Forseth In-Character: -Character Name: Kale_Forseth -What is your Race?: High Elf on race card, he is a Human in Role-play, but turned High Elf through arcane magic. -Biography: Kale Forseth is a offset of Kalen Forseth, The Alrasian Royal Engineer. They are one in the same, and it shows in the appearance. Kale Forseth has always been in Kalen, always waiting, always lurking. The events that transpired to put him there are not important, for only he knows the truth. Kale is the dark side of Kalen, forged through meens unknown, he came to possess Kalen for a time. Kalen eventually escaped from his grasp, and he began to plot his return. The need became ever greater as Kalen made contact with a ascended, not knowing of Kale's presence, but feeling him there. The time came where a event would occur that should Kale stay, he would be forever destroyed. As Kalen was walking to the north along the road of destiny, a sudden wave of darkness filled his vision, and he gasped for breath, but suddenly it was lifted. Kalen whirled around, taking in his surroundings like his training told him to. He saw nothing. As he walked away, a weak figure, cut to early from his host, crawled away into the night. He is Kale Forseth, and this is his tale. -Character Age: He is the same age as Kalen Forseth, 213 years old, granted long-life from his High Elven side. -Character Appearance: Kale Forseth looks like his counterpart, Kalen Forseth. His skin is slightly darker, and his eyes have a red tinge to them. He wears the Alrasian banner due to the fact he is keeping up the illusion he is the Royal Engineer. His hair is long and over shadows his left eye, hiding a scar that runs the base of his skull. He walks with a military gait and posture, but his eye betray a hunger only revenge can satisfy. -Character Personality: Kale is a ambitious, grudge holding charater. He feels as-if he is pure evil, and that his sole purpose is to replace his former, weaker self Kalen Forseth. He is sometimes over-ambitious and does not relize the limit of his own strength. -Your ambitions: Kale seeks revenge upon his former comrade for betraying him, even though un-knowlingly. He wishes to wreak chaos and discord where ere he go. -Can your character read or write?: Both, Kalen was well learned, and he is Kalen's counterpart. -Can your character mine?: Yes. -Are you a capable builder?: Very Capable, he is a counterpart of Kalen, a architect of Alras. -Can you wield a sword?: Very well. -Enjoy Farming?: Food is a invaluable resource, and Kale learned quick. -Does your character have any special skills?: He is stealthy, and a keen liar. -A screenshot of your skin: -Other Information: Yes, it is Royal_Engineer_Kalen_Forseth's Alternate account. I felt like this would add curious new Roleplay for my charater. Thanks for your time!

Not bad, Charles. Accepted, Journeyman Engineer. Welcome!

Why do you wish to join the guild? I want to join the guild, because I'm very interested in redstoneing, I live in Alras (Windmill at the big farm *.*) and I like it to help other people with defence-systems, door-circuits etc. I'd also like it to have some friends in the city! Further I can improve my redstone knowing! I hope I can be useful for the guild. Greetings Haradrias Impressive! I must say, you are very decent with redstone. I accept you to the guild as a Journeyman Engineer. I will tell you though that currently I cannot manage the guild asmuch. I am working most of the time on the castle and other projects. When the castle is completed, then the guild will become one of my first priorities. I do hope to see some great things from you Journeyman Engineer Haradrias!

Applications are now Open!

Soon! I am holding Application processes back UNTILL I finish the guild house!(not to worry! Half done, looks amazing already!)

Minecraft User Name: 501warhead Character Name: Kalen Forseth Background/History (Chronologically and must be at least 1 paragraph long, but no longer than 4 paragraphs): My childhood was a dark one. My father was murdered by his own blade at the hands of one of his friends, and I was forced to watch my mother killed with my father's pride and joy. I ran from my childhood home, never to return. I was found by an elf named Atles, a leader of a group known then as the Pathfinders, composed of High Elves. Through much time, and arcane arts, I became almost a High Elf myself. I quickly ascended the ranks and became his equal, we were brothers in arms, inserperable in nothing else but death. He was killed on the night of Peara's fall, and I watched it happen. My concious was split into many fragments, and I ran like a wild beast through the woods. Memories of blood haunt my dreams still. I pray to this day that it was animal blood. My first clear memory was of a dark night, I was resting. In my sleep a deep, foreboding voice spoke in words I do not even know how to say, nor do I think I could replicate such noises. When I woke, my body was not my own. My body pledged undying allegiance to the ones who killed my brother in arms. I commited many cruel acts under this, and I still to this day do not know how I escaped such a horrifying existance. I pledged never to lift a blade in harm to anything innocent, and have been on the road of repentance ever since. Good Deeds [Atleast 4 Occations]: 1) I was a Oren Ranger in my past. I was on a patrol with the commander, Nords, when we stumbled upon a robbery. I hunted down the crook to his base, where he and his fellows tried to kill us. We rescued the items and returned them to the owner. 2) I led the Wardens for a while, during which I preformed many good deeds. I helped build the jail they have there and keep crooks off the streets, I donated to Malinor to help the innocent, and I vowed to protect them. 3) I have helped to construct Alras, putting many back-breaking months into construction. We have made housing for the poor, and offered shelter to the shelter-less. 4) Upon the roads I met a group of bandits. They were feirce and were in the process of robbing someone. They did not get what they wanted and were about to kill their vicitim when I lashed out. I did not kill them but mercifully tied them up and left them there for the Oren Guard to pick up. 5) The only true memory that was of my own when my body did not serve me. Toward the end of my servitude I was told to kill the son of a family, slowly, before their eyes, as they would not submit. I approached the building, and grabed the son, and was about to, when for the first time in months I had my body back. I put the son down, and told the family to leave quickly. I rest easy knowing they lived. Character Flaws/Weaknesses: 1) My charater feels as if he owes a debt to the innocent, and may be hesitate to attack anything he feels has not done wrong. 2) My charater has a dark half, though in recent times has been deeply suppressed, possibly even destroyed. He fears it will resurface and attempts at all times to suppress it at any cost. 3) He still has haunting memories of his past, and sometimes they overwhelm him, even to the point of passing out at times. Why you belong in Theologist/Scholar/Warrior/Commerce?[Explain the abilities of your Character]: 1)Scholar 2)Warrior 3)Commerce 4)Theologist My charater does not like violence, and tries to refrain. If it comes down to it he is a fierce fighter and will protect the ones he loves. He is a architect, and is skilled with redstone. He enjoys reading, and meditation. He knows the economy decently due to his work in Alras, but he does not like to ponder to much the universe. He belives their secrets will come as the world continues to evolve. Rationale [what is your characters mindset, why does he go out of his way to help others]: My charater feels as if he owes a debt to the world he has helped darken. He feels as if everyone has been effected by him, and that the world would be better without him, though he does not accept this. He is a forward thinker, and is very brash at times. He decided he could fix, or atleast attempt to mend, what wrongs he did. How do you determine right from wrong [At least 1 paragraph]: My charater feels as if violence is wrong, and only the most pure of evil should this tactic be used on. He is emotional at times and may take it over the top, but he feels as if anything that is done with good intentions is right, unless the coarse of action is wrong. Evils are plainly listed, but sometimes even good can be turned to evil, and sometimes evil turns to good. Lies are sometimes nessassary to help the greater good. My charater also feels as if withholding the truth is worse than telling a lie, unless it is a good reason. What are your characters views on the following statements (At least 1 Paragraph): 1. Cephalus defines ‘justice’ as speaking the truth and paying one's debts. Socrates quickly refutes this account by suggesting that it would be wrong to repay certain debts—for example, to return a borrowed weapon to a friend who is not in his right mind. The truth is something we are all born with a right to hear should we wish to, and not remain in our shell. Justice is best represented by the scales. To balance out what has been wronged with a correct punishment. Should someone steal, the punishment should match the crime. Debts should be paid should the debt in mention be to someone who might misuse the debted item(s). 2. 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous misfortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them? It is nobler to oppose a sea of troubles. Should you simply sit there and take misfortune, you will be miserable all the days of your life upon this world. It is better to try to deal with your troubles and end them, or yourself, than to slowly be eaten away by the misfortunes of this life.

1) Human, appearance and traits as a high elf 2) Alras! 3) Capitol

*Stops for a second to wonder why we're parting over a dead mans corpse. Then relizes he's a evil dead man and continues to do the limbo*

Entry(Clickly!) Entry. Enjoy. *Backs away slowly*

*The tall, elvish like man chuckles* So, you remake the rangers? Perhaps I should ask for my old rank back? LT hmmm? No. That life, and horrible blood stained title has passed from me, I NEVER want to hear it again. I send my best of wishes to you, enjoy cleaning the name of the Oren rangers. Just don't clean it with blood like we tried to do. -Anonomus letter

*the man softly chuckles* You bring back the rangers. Interesting. Perhaps I could joke about and ask for my old rank back? Ha. No, but Hayden would not beable to tell you the full story- he was never more than a recruit. Enjoy new Oren Rangers, I hope you can clean the name, just don't use blood as we did before. -Anonomus letter.

I wastaking someone to be roasted alive in lava :S

Hello!I'm Warden-Guidehighborn Kalen, and I'm here on behalf of the wardens and will be looking for different materials or items depending on our need. Currently on our list of items: Obsidian, 30 each. NEED ALOT. Glowstone, Price not set, need a decent bit. Iron, price will vary depending on overall need. Darkwood Leaves, for a building project, price will vary depending on need. Gold, Price varies upon need. As you can see, prices will vary upon our need and the sellers value of said items, but we are always looking for more and more and I shall update this list as our needs expand. To sell said items please send Grandhighborn Blackthorn((Benjaminkayeight)) A message and he will see to it if there is a need. May you walk in wisdom, Warden Guidehighborn Kalen.

My honest opinion on the matter, There should be strategic points that armies can take and hold that are close to the enemy or have some relevence, that wars can be fought over these and end over these if they wish, but wars should not be one giant battle, that is not how wars work. It would be interesting to have say, a large tower near the dwarven kingdom that when inside increases say damage done and lowers damage taken, so it helps the dwarves at the start but can be turned against them. This would add a strategic feel to wars instead of mindless people running about swinging swords. May you walk in wisdom, Warden Guidehighborn Kalen.

Thanks!Looking forward to magic then and (Hopefully!) Joining the mages guild.

Question, Slayer, should we be accepted to be a magician, and we join the guild, are we still allowed to be part of other orginizations?(Such as say one of the leaders of a workforce/guard/or military faction) Or would mages that join have to be devoted utterly and completly to the guild and training new and aspiring magicians?

Let me straighten a few things out. Algoda was NEVER taken from command, he was, and will be untill he personally steps down, the leader of the kingdom of alras. I am NOT the leader of a warband, as one person put it, I am one of the leaders of the Wardens, the elven military. I am the diplomat and the advisor of the other leaders. I did not lead the elven army into the kingdom to take it over, as a matter of fact I was the only warden there, and was there only to show my support for syrio. The only, ONLY, change that has been made was rasun steped down as overseer, and Syrio stepped up. More progress has been made now than in a long time, all of which, I might add, Algoda was quite pleased with. The nation is growing quite prosperous, the elves have donated quite alot to alras and it is quite nice at this point. I am personally helping, at this very moment, the kingdom of Alras grow and flourish, and I do wish to see more people come to live there.
