Out-Of-Character Information Please fill out the following questions as accurately as possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate. Minecraft Account Name: riengo How old are you?: 16. Time-Zone: EST. Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Indubitably. What previous experience have you had in role-playing?: 3 MC servers, Ruined World, Shrines of the Ancients, and Year 2065. As well as extensive text only RP. How did you hear about the the Lord of the Craft?: Found it myself. Link any applications that you have previously made for the server: This page. Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If not, then please do so (link above): Done so. Have you read the Human lore, and shall you ensure you make use of it and follow it in your biography?: Yes! Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!: Role-playing: To take on the life of a character and live out their actions as they would. Not sure how to give an example for this, but... Bob joins a server, a regular guy. He applies, however, as a noble and grand knight, even though he doesn't act that way in real life. On the server, he always acts as this knight, helping those in need, et cetera. Meta-gaming: To take knowledge from out of character, and then use it in character (usually to your benefit). For instance, you are walking in the woods, and suddenly a bandit appears. He demands you to give up your money. You are in a skype call, however, with friends, and you tell them to come to where you are. Your friends metagame, by randomly heading straight to the forest, even though they'd never do that in character, to save you. It ruins good RP, and breaks the immersion completely. Power-emoting: Roleplaying without giving the other person a chance to respond, like instantly decapitating someone. In more detail, Bob, once a great knight, has fallen and become evil. Someone in the streets has a funny face, so Bob decides to kill him. He walks up to him, not even saying "Hi!", and goes: *Bob takes his sword and cuts the man's throat* In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Sebastian Zachary Theodore Current Age: 21. Sub-race (if any): Nope. Past/ History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Sebastian was born to a baker, who was the son of a baker who was the son of a baker. Naturally, he was expected to carry on the tradition. His father may not have been a royal baker, but he still had cooked, with palace bakers, for the emperor once before. He had always bragged about that, and his Class B citizenship he got immeadiately after. Probably no connection, but Sebastian's dad was always a bit of a romantic. Sebastian was an only child, being the son of a baker, even a prosperous one. Plus, his father didn't want to split his inheritance between multiple children. However, his wife died in childbirth, leaving the new child under his father's complete control. Surprisingly, Sebastian's father, who was very emotional, got over his wife's death rather quickly. It only took him 3 years to remarry, which was an interesting ceremony to say the least. The new wife didn't actually have any children, she was quite young, but it took a long time for little Sebastian to trust this new, strange woman. Of course, as custom, the dowry was put down into writing, so that Sebastian's father could not contest it. Later though, unfortunately, he was not entirely in his right mind when he wrote up in the presence of his new wife's parents. He, after writing up the inventory of his children and that of his deceased wife, gave inheritance not to his wife's parents, nor even to his new wife, but her sister, a cruel and hard woman. It is hard to explain what was going through his mind at the time. Still, she only checked in ONCE in a while... But it's never pleasant. Growing up, Sebastian was extremely excited about being a baker. After all, who wouldn't want to be surrounded by sweets and delicious food all day? However, he soon learned that you didn't really get to eat any of the food, and had to do boring stuff like haggle with customers. So, for a while, he lost interest. As a child, he was very well-mannered, which made him lots of friends... With girls. He tended to be shunned by the guys for his non-confrontational nature, though he learned to hide it by his teen years. Speaking of his teen years, this was when Sebastian's father began to crack down on him. He forced Sebastian into the role of a baker as fast as he could. Life was rather boring up until this point, they being simple folk who only knew the general gist of the law. Sebastian never had an extensive education, he was exclusively trained to be a baker. Of course, he resented it at first, but he actually found that he enjoyed baking quite a bit. However, it was just baking. You see, though Sebastian enjoyed the act of baking, he hated the business side of things. There were so many laws and regulations and restrictions and loopholes that he sometimes got dizzy just thinking about them. Half the time he didn't want to get up in the morning because he knew he'd be working the counter that day. Of course, it's not always that bad, most customers are the poor simply buying bread. Yet with the richer customers came more complications. He had to make sure he didn't "pressure" or "coerce" them into a deal, give them a fair prince, and make sure they pay the full price up front, because with only paying part of the price brings a WHOLE new dimension to selling. And don't even get him started onto selling his baked goods to the slaves whose masters send them to buy things... Finally, in his recent years, Sebastian has decided that he likes being a baker so much, and not dealing with people so much, that he's decided to be the best and he has set off for the Lenfarthing, where he heard Halflings had new, delicious, and interesting baking techniques that could make him better. And more secluded. Any money he finds each month he still sends back to his father, though he did leave with his blessing. His father was proud of Sebastian's advancement, and was happy of him trying to better himself, but also has made Sebastian swear and oath to come home and take over the bakery in case anything happens to him. Though Sebastian is still looking for permanent housing in the Lenfarthing, he is confident that if he looks long and hard enough, he'll find it. Of course, that optimism won't last for long, so recently he has increasing his searching for a house fervently. Ambitions for the Future: To become the greatest baker of all time, and to be world-famous. Personality: Sebastian, as his name would suggest, is rather prissy by human standards. He does all he can to avoid conflict, which is why he fits in with Halflings a great deal. However, despite his avoiding conflict, his close friends know he has a lovable, but slightly dark sense of humor. The main thing separating him from his neighbors is his delusion that he will become the greatest cook in the lands. He really does enjoy baking all the item, he usually simply bakes to forget his troubles. Like his neighbors, he loves a good story, but when he tells them he often can go a bit far, even inserting himself into the stories. Skills: He is an excellent baker, and not half bad with a frying pan when in a fight. Of course, that never happens. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Sebastian is a rather average-looking man, 6 foot 1 inches, not skinny, but also not quite fat yet. He has long black hair, which he tends to keep under his white hat, yet some still wildly creeps out and goes to mid-back. He wears a long-sleeved wooly light brown shirt, with a leather vest over it. He tucks the shirt in with a simple black belt. He wears pants the same shade of brown as his shirt, and wears leather boots. Any other details you wish to share about your character: Greatness comes from the strangest places... 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: Sebastian, terrified of this strange man, nearly falls over when he spots him. The city people sure are strange... Suddenly, Sebastian has an epiphany. What if he actually was going to do something wrong? I mean, he might be innocent and not doing anything, but... When he notices that the man is going towards the palace, but that there are guards nearby, he freezes up but soon makes up his mind. Not very confidently, but still. He lets out a slight stutter, "G-gaurds..." Yet the guards haven't noticed him yet. Then, "Guards! There's a guy in a cloak!" Most of the guards laugh at this strange man, but one of them notices the figure, and runs after him. 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: Sebastian heard the bandits from quite a way off. "Alright old man, we need a... Place to stay, see?" The old man shook his head and looked down. The second bandit cried out, "Do you know WHY we're hidin' in this forest oldie? You don't even want to know the things we've done to be out here! So I'd KINDLY suggest you move outta the way before," The bandit drew a second sword, "Someone gets hurt!" Sebastian felt even more disheartened at these words. The old man kept his wavering blade up, however. Then Sebastian, trembling, takes a few steps to the bandits. Suddenly, they turn around, spotting Sebastian. They burst out laughing when they see how much his blade is trembling, and his paltry leather armor. They take a few steps towards Sebastian, in their heavy gear... Suddenly, Sebastian throws the sword at one of their feet in surrender. Someone, in a one in a million chance, the bandit actually trips on it! The other is too dumbfounded by the... Well, dumbness of his compatriot. In a heartbeat Sebastian runs, grabbing the feeble old man's hand as he goes. He hears the screams of the bandits behind him as he keeps running away from the bandits... 3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colorful 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: Sebastian peruses the cooking goods that the small man has. He's a bit underwhelmed, to be perfectly honest. There weren't many cooking goods, besides a couple of basic pots and pans. One of them, a seemingly normal traveling cooking pot, caught his eye. It seemed to be lighter than the others, when he picked it up. The shopkeeper's face spread into a huge grin, as Balthazar examined it. "Aaaah, I see you have a discerning eye! That right there is a true beauty of cookware." Sebastian looked curiously at him, "What is it? It seems so light." The man replied, "A pot made of... The finest, purest... Mithril!" ".... What?" The man looked shocked, "You don't know what mithril is!? Why, the lightest, but strongest substance on this planet! That pot wouldn't smash if you hit it with your strongest sword!" Sebastian's eyes widened, "Really?" The man nodded sagely. "All for around 700 minas! Of course, you can negotiate as much as you want." Sebastian's mouth nearly dropped at that price-tag. He was about to exclaim that it was ridiculous, but... Well, he had just enough, and the pot was so light, and high-quality... He'll try to drive the price down a bit. "I'll take it, but for no more than 300 minas!" The merchant rubbed his hands together, "Come now, I have to make a living! 600 minas- Wait, I like you, and it's only a pot I suppose. 500 Minas. I'm sure you will enjoy the pot immensely!" Sebastian accepted this. After he had sold the pot to Sebastian, and Sebastian was walking away, he noticed that the merchant was packing up his stall... It wasn't until he dropped in on the road out of the city that Sebastian noticed the pot... Dented, on the ground. "GRRRAGH!"

Balthazar's eyes widened, "Really?" The man nodded sagely. "All for around 700 minas! Of course, you can negotiate as much as you want." Balthazar's mouth nearly dropped at that price-tag. He was about to exclaim that it was ridiculous, but... Well, he had just enough, and the pot was so light, and high-quality... He'll try to drive the price down a bit. "I'll take it, but for no more than 300 minas!" The merchant rubbed his hands together, "Come now, I have to make a living! 600 minas- Wait, I like you, and it's only a pot I suppose. 500 Minas. I'm sure you will enjoy the pot immensely!" Balthazar accepted this. After he had sold the pot to Balthazar, and Balthazar was walking away, he noticed that the merchant was packing up his stall... It wasn't until he dropped in on the road out of the city that Balthazar noticed the pot... Dented, on the ground. "GRRRAGH!"

Last year I discovered roleplaying, and have been actively been participating in it since then. I love puns and joking around, but I definitely know when it's appropriate to joke, and when it's not. -How much time could you be on the server weekly?:Probably an hour on weekdays, several hours on weekends. -How long have you played Minecraft?:Every since early January/late December. -What do you know about roleplaying? How long have you been doing it? What kind?: I love Roleplaying, and know about the pitfalls that most early Roleplayers fall into from personal experience. My mentor pounded a ton of mantras about metagaming and godmodding. I've been Roleplaying since January, I started out on forums, but soon moved onto games like Minecraft. Roleplaying is when you take the place of another person, usually in a fantasy-like setting, and live out their life, their triumphs and shames. You follow specific rules, like what I've stated above, to make combat and other aspects of the world fair. -What do you expect this server will be like?: I think this will be a great serious roleplaying experience, because I see that you are serious about roleplaying, unlike other servers, and I saw your Dev blogs on your YouTube channel, you seem like nice people. -What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:I played on the ruined world server, but soon it started to fall apart, so I left it to a sad fate. -Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules? What about the lore?:I do on all four accounts. -Name the 4 races on this server: Elves, Humans, Orcs, and Dwarfs. -How did you hear about us?:I saw you on the forum, and thought you seemed legit. -Did you vote?:Yep. -What was your favourite Law?:I like that you need to use actual skins that match your characters, unlike some servers I've played on, and the prevention of 1337 speak. -What was your least favourite Law?:To have a forum account to play, I know that it's lazy of me, but I like to keep my email inbox clean, but I don't know if you sends routine emails or not, so this dislike is a so-so. -What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?Riengo In-Character: -Character Name:Simon Arthur Labrenda III -What is your Race?: Human -Lordofthecraft.net/forum forum account:Riengo -Biography:Simon lived the life of a spoiled son of a lord for the first decade of his life or so, but at the age of 13 his father took him aside one day, and told him about the truth of the dangerous game of politics, and started to teach him how to be as cold as necessary to survive. Simon reacted oddly to this, he had always thought that his father had been a champion of the people, now he was telling him that he was a controller and manipulator of them. Instead of being repulsed, he was determined to keep his pristine image of his father. So, he convinced himself that what his father was doing was the only possible, sane course of action. So he now believes that cruelty is the norm. For several years he learned about the royal court, and how to survive in it, but little did he know his skills would soon be put to the test. When Simon was only 28, his father died, leaving him his title, his lands, and his position in the court. It was a miracle that he survived in the vicious place as long as he did, but as it turned out, it was not to last. One day, as the king was consulting his lords, a mysterious hooded man entered the room, without the guards announcing him. Before anyone could blink, he raised a crooked finger at Simon and said in a croaking voice, "You shall pay for the sins of your father. Your blood-stained lands, titles, and honor are revoked!" Simon almost laughed, but suddenly he couldn't speak, or even breathe. His stomach lurched, and he was instantly covered in a mist... Soon he disappeared. Of course, disappearing things need someplace to disappear TOO, and Simon ended up at the cloud temple, in only the clothes that he was in when he was teleported. Now he must set out to explore this new land, and make a fortune off of it, and possibly find a way across the ocean back to his home. He is bewildered, evil, partially skilled with a sword, in contempt for commoners, and afraid of any species that isn't human, because he hasn't seen any before. Not a great combination for the lands and their people. -Character Age:42, but he looks to be about in his mid-50's. -Character Appearance:Simon appears to be your average 50-year-old man, even though he's around 40. He wears a checkered shirt that somehow always seems clean despite whatever happens. His beard ends just above the middle of his chest. He has some hair left, but most of it has come out near the back. His only show of his noble ancestry is a sapphire ring with his family seal on it. He wears brown trousers, and black cow leather shoes. -Character Personality: Simon is completely unafraid to use other for his own purposes, if they are not of noble blood. He can be cold, cruel, and stubborn, but he is also highly intelligent. He can disguise his true feelings if he thinks it will help his cause. However, he isn’t COMPLETELY evil; he’s just very vicious in his own way, he won’t go out of his way to hurt people, only if it’s necessary, then he’ll do it without blinking. ((Which is why I’m not posting this in the villain forum…)) -Your ambitions: To regain his family honor, fortune, and secrets. Plus revenge on whoever destroyed his family's name.... -Can your character read or write?:He can do both. -Can your character mine?:No. -Are you a capable builder?Yes, but he prefers for others to do the work for him. -Can you wield a sword?:Surprisingly yes, he knows how to wield a sword effectively because he was taught when he was young. -Enjoy Farming?: No, he believes it's commoner's work. -Does your character have any special skills?: He's cunning, not charismatic cunning, but a kind of cunning like plotting in the dark, taking in information. -A screenshot of your skin: Here it is! -Other Information: Nope!
