b]Out-Of-Character Minecraft Account Name: Mixwhelan How old are you?: 18 Time-Zone/Country of Residence: GMT+0 - England Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes, hard not to in its place of origin (unless you're counting latin in which case it's not the place of origin but you understand what I mean) Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I spend most of my time writing music and playing games. I'm usually quite open minded about what games I play, from FIFA to Skyrim and from Amnesia to Mass Effect, I try to play things from most genres to keep it interesting. I'm average height, blue eyes brown hair. I play the guitar, trumpet, banjo and ukulele and I'll be heading of to university in September. How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Right this moment I would be able to play most of the time, my time at college has just come to an end so I can spend whatever time I feel necessary. I usually am quite commited to my role so you'll see me on quite a lot. What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Role playing is the immersion of a player into the world of the game he is playing. On a mechanics level it's about creating a character and progressing through his story in the world, but on a personal level it's about living and breathing the world you inhabit. Learning its history, immersing yourself into its lore and becoming the character that you've crafted. What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: I've spent most of my life doing some form of role playing whilst gaming. From an early age I started playing games like Morrowind and Fable: The lost chapters and I grew to be a massive RPG fan-boy. My first non RPG game role-playing experience was on Garry's Mod, which consisted of modern day role playing and sims-esque realism. From then on I strived to find more traditional fantasy settings. Over the years I've played on games such as a modification for mount and blade and more recently I have gotten into role-playing servers on minecraft. My first server was by the name of Craft-Hammer. A server loosely basing its lore on Warhammer. I played for quite a while and (I would hope)showed that I could role-play to a level that I was made an administrator. I have experience in not only taking part in events but starting and maintaining them. This doesn't mean however that I'm looking to join your admin team from the get-go and I won't be pestering you about it. (honest) In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-Gaming is the act of Acting upon or claiming to have knowledge that your character does not know In-Character but you yourself have found out Out-of-Character. For example, claiming to know the location of someone who is hiding from you because a friend saw them and told you on skype. In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is: Power-Emoting is the act of forcing the action of another player in your RP. If you were to be in the heat of an RP battle it would be acceptable to say *Person A Swings his sword at Person B's Arm*, however it would be unacceptable to continue with *Person B cries from the pain and runs away from the battle* What do you expect this server will be like?: From the face of the website and reviews from friends it sounds like a well run and proffesional server with a lot to do and see. I can't wait to play. What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I previously played on the server Craft-Hammer, however I left due to an issue with the other admins which would be unfair to comment on in public. I also wanted a change in my surroundings and more of a player role than that of an administrator. Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, apart from the few that are more unique to the server they seem to be the standard set of rules that most servers abide to. Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules: I do, yes. How did you hear about us?: My girlfriend who is currently a player, Gemmylou. Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?: I already had an account which I was unaware of but I don't believe I've applied before. In-Character: Character Name: Garret 'Sparrow' Locke What Race are you? (You may only be Human, Orc, Elf or Dwarf!) : Human What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): Southerner Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): Garret was born under the hunter Harold Locke and the Seamstress Lara Contasoni. The couple were not wed-locked and the birth was seen as a humiliation for the contasoni family who force Garret's mother to refute him as her son and to leave Harold to care for the child on his own. Despite the trouble that his new son had caused him Harold loved Garret like noone else in the world. The two lived in a small hunting lodge on the outskirts of civilization where Harold would raise his son on his trade, teaching him how to use the bow and to blend in with his surroundings to stay hidden from his pray. Garret's first hunt with his father had the aim of killing and skinning a boar that had Harold had spotted killing the deer near their house. Harold and Garret crouched behind an oak tree watching the boar sniff along the ground searching for food. Today was Garret's time to kill the animal. He had watched his father kill before and was rather desensitesed to the 'gore' of skinning the animal but he had never actually made the kill himself. He drew back the arrow as his father held his shoulder reassuringly. The arrow felt like it was stuck to his hand, his heart was beating heavily and sweat started to appear on his brow. The bow started to shake and Garret looked up at his father worriedly as if to say "I can't do it". Harold moved his hand from Garret's shoulder onto his arm and held it steady for him. The bow stopped shaking but the arrow would still not hit the boar from this angle. Harold whisperred into his ear "Don't breathe", confusing Garret at first but as he foccused on his target once more he emptied his lungs and the world stopped moving. He saw the boar drooling at the mouth and following his gaze he saw a wounded bird bleeding from the wing on the ground. Without hesitation Garret's arrow flew from the bow piercing the lungs of the Boar that slumped down to the group in a heap after stumbling around gasping for air. Harold smiled at his sons achievement but was shocked to see him rush towards the corpse. Garret picked up the wounded bird holding it up towards his father, "It's a sparrow" he said. Harold looked at the boar lying on the ground, its eyes glazed and the arrow sticking its chest to the ground. They left the corpse and ran back to the house. That was the first time Harold had ever left valuable animal hide behind. In the small hours of Garret's 23rd birthday, his father passed away leaving him the lodge and his prized bow. Garret picked up the bow, some arrows and bread and walked away from the house not looking back. as he walked towards Arethor looking for a new life he passed the spot he had made his first hunt. Tears started to form in his eyes as he was just about to drop to his knees a flock of birds flew over head. Garret looked up to see at least 12 sparrows perch on the branches above him. He wiped his eyes and carried on his journey without looking back. What are your Character's ambitions?: In the short term Garret is looking for work as a hunter, being the only trade he knows. In the long term he wishes to master his craft and start his own lodge where he can train in archery and stealth. What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): He favours the bow for obvious reasons and can shoot with great accuracy but in close range combat he has been known to resort to using a sword as a side arm. What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Garret can empty his lungs when undisturbed and focus on a target from acres away. His bow can shoot with the force of a battering ram when he is unspotted, catching his enemy of guard. A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format, if you do not know how to acquire one, copy and paste this link into your browser: ( http://tinyurl.com/Lotcscreenshot ): Other Information about your Character: Garret wears green facepaint on half of his face and a green cloak on his back. While this is suitable camoflauge for the jungle and forests, he sticks out in snowy plains and deserts and does not use them for hunting. Open-Response-Questions Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond? Garret ducks behind some trees watching the situation unfold. Garret's mother leaving on his birth has filled him with skepticism. He watches as the event unfolds seeing the halfling beg on the ground. Garret is filled with pitty and a bit of embarrasment on his half but he is not able to take down the warriors on his own. He sneaks away without being spotted. Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response? "I need arrows, I can exchange hides but that's all I have, no money." Garret grunts. The vendor gasps when Garret pulls the skin of dead deers out from his satchel. "You're in the wrong place just go. Get them out of my face." The vendor shouts holding his stomach. Garret raises an eyebrow and laughs under his breath walking away looking for a tanner who might be more used to the sight of what his clothes are made from. Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?: Garret backs up from the chest and searches the hut. He inspects the chest more closely to see a wire as thin as hair attached to the lid of the chest he back away from the chest and cuts the wire with end of his blade which opens a trap door infront of the chest revealing a spike pit. Garret smirks, awarding his own skepticism Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you in the common tongue, how do you respond? "I need food, and I have iron to trade." Garret says removing his hood and revealing his face as a sign of trust. The trader, feeling threatened by Garrets bow and quiver, does not let him enter but brings him food and makes the trade. Garret sleeps outside the walls of the trading post and feels cast out as he usually is. You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?: Garret counts himself in, not turning down easy coin. The town watch seemingly outnumbered by the bandits allow them to strut out confidently as their leader comes forward trying to intimidate. A single arrow flies from the trees piercing the leader's skull sent hurling from Garret's bow. The Watch attack with the support of Garret's fire. Anything else you would like to say?: Hope this is enough for you! Thanks for reading
