-What do you know about roleplaying? How long have you been doing it? What kind?:
I know that role-playing is being able to be anybody you want to be (with limitations and rules of course). The most recent role-playing experience I have had was from playing Garry's Mod. I would tend to be a drug dealer trying to make his living from selling marijuana and avoiding the police. Of course, in Lord of the Craft things may tend to be slightly different he-he.
-What do you expect this server will be like?:
My expectations and the reality of the server will be completely different and I try not to expect things from anything or anyone and instead judge them through the experience that they provide for me. However, in light of answering the question, I would expect this server to be a virtual world from which to live out a fictional mid-evil fantasy of a far away land.

I have played minecraft mostly solo with the occasional server game (hosted myself) with a couple of friends.

Of course, Always support something that has had a lot of work put into it.
-What was your favourite Law?:
I do not have a specific law that I favor, however, I do like the reality aspect of the game (hence the RP...). I think that if I had to choose one, it would be the fact that you cannot return to the location where you died for 30 minutes.
-What was your least favourite Law?:
None really. I am apprehensive however, if some of the laws may be abused (guards arresting new citizens for mild mistakes, etc.)

Zyde
-Biography:
Zyde was born on a small farm on the outskirts of The Great Kingdom of Oren. There he was raised by his mother and father. As a young boy Zyde was tasked with herding the sheep and cattle while his parents farmed wheat for the Kingdom. Zyde's family was not wealthy; however, they managed to afford basic necessities. Occasionally Zyde's uncle, his father's brother, would visit the family on the farm. Zyde would always look forward to hearing the stories of his travels. Nobody really knew whether some of the heroic tales his uncle told him were really true as he was a mysterious and elusive man, but as a child Zyde could not get the stories out of his mind. He loved them.
One day, when Zyde turned 12, his uncle came bearing gifts. He brought with him a copper sword and scrolls of ancient swordsmanship. The scrolls contained diagrams with short descriptions of stances and fighting techniques. Zyde's father, educated by his father before him, helped Zyde read through some of the short passages to better understand the diagrams. Zyde spent his free time learning the techniques of the blade. Every year his uncle would bring more and more scrolls for Zyde to learn. His uncle came one last time on Zyde's 15th birthday and left him a black and yellow outfit fit for a king. This was the last time Zyde saw his uncle. By age 16, Zyde had already mastered the blade and decided to craft a bow. He continued this until the age of 18 when his parents finally had enough money to buy a small plot of land for a house to live out the rest of their lives in a work-free environment. By this age Zyde had mastered both the bow and sword. He wanted to travel and explore the world, like his uncle. Zyde left his home and spent two years traveling.
-Character Age:
Zyde is 20 years old.
-Character Appearance:
Zyde has short brown hair and wears the black and orange outfit his uncle had bestowed upon him.
-Character Personality:
He is friendly, loyal, honest, and trustworthy.
-Your ambitions:
Zyde's ambitions are to make a living as a mercenary. He does not care much for politics (though loyal to his King) and instead prefers to be neutral to all parties in conflict. He would aid the side with the highest reward, preferring to see all actions as "just good business". However, if no conflicts arise Zyde would just have to perform labor to make enough money for a home. Eventually Zyde would buy a small home within the city walls and perhaps a small plot of land to farm cattle, sheep, and wheat. After Zyde has made enough money he would sell his home and his farm to open a barracks in the Kingdom. This barracks would be made to train soldiers in the art of battle. There will be dummies, simulations, target practice, and much more to help soldiers hone in on their battle skills.

Zyde is no scholar, but he knows enough to get by.
-Can your character mine?:
Yes.
-Are you a capable builder?
Zyde helped his parents build their new home. He considers himself a capable builder.

Zyde is a ferocious fighter. Although he prefers his bow over his blade, he is deadly with both weapons.
-Enjoy Farming?:
After a long battle, Zyde would farm as a way to keep his mind off of the bloodshed that transpired over the battlefield.
-Does your character have any special skills?:]
Friendly, loyal, honest, and trustworthy, Zyde has great public relation skills.
-A screenshot of your skin:
I was slightly confused with what skins are allowed or disallowed, however I would like to use the following skin:
If this is not permitted I will gladly use one of the predetermined human skins Lord of the Craft has kindly set out for their players.

I am a student aspiring to get a doctorate degree in Astrophysics. I love my dog :]
*Just on a side note, for some bizarre reason I was unable to post a reply of this application on your minecraftforum.net thread. I will gladly try again a few more times later. Please let me know if this is a problem.
