I got chills watching the trailer. Or maybe that's just because it's really cold in my room...
Can't wait for the new map. Great trailer, too.

Glad to see you want to help the community but I recommend you spend some more time on the server before you post an application for a staff position. I mean, it's only been about 5 days since you joined.

um tl;dr???
tl;dr The next realm's name shouldn't start with the letter A. She's suggested the name 'Devulon' for the next realm.
Edit: I really enjoyed this. xD

I don't think any of us would appreciate being spoken to in such a condescending manner. As far as a community goes, the commenters have shown this is hardly an accepting place. There's such a simple rule to live life by: if you have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all.
Yeah, she's young, but she specifically asked for no invalidating comments, and y'all Dun Goofed and made real asshats of yourselves.
My personal advice to you, kallimar, is to not worry too much about labels, and understand you as a person changes over time. Just accept that you are a human being. Don't worry too much about the labels. Like who you like. That doesn't need to be a fundamental part of your identity.
Holy shieeet, I couldn't have said this better.

MC name:
RK9ify
Character's name and age:
Tristane Riscel - 29
Character’s Race:
Adunian
What magic/s did you learn?:
Fire Evocation and enchanting
Who/how did you learn magic/s?:
Tristane was always interested in magic as a child. Once he reached the age of 17, his mother, who was trained in the magics listed above, trained Tristane in the magical arts, until he reached the age of 29.
Offer an explanation of said magic/s you learned:
Fire Evocation:
Fire evocation is basically summoning fire into the physical world. To be able to evoke fire, one must be able to connect to the void. Once the mage has the ability to connect to the void, they will be able to draw out elements from the void. Summoning elements, such as fire, from the void takes up mana. In order to evoke fire, one must also understand its properties. How it feels, how it looks, etc. Evoking fire can also be dangerous as the mage evoking the flame can also feel it’s warmth and may be potentially harmed by it.
Enchanting:
Enchanting consists of applying magical properties onto objects. In order to understand enchanting, one must first understand what a mana-anchor is. A mana-anchor acts as a connection between the void, and spell being casted. This ‘mana-anchor’ is, of course, invisible. Once a magical property has been applied onto an object, the mana-anchor must be constantly fueled, else the object will lose its enchantment. The mana used to fuel enchanted objects are stored in gems. The larger or higher the quality of the gem, the more mana the gem will be able to hold. Once a mage gets hold of a gem, he/she must transfer their mana to it. Then, to refuel the enchanted object, the gem must be applied to it. When all the mana is used up, the enchantment fades. That’s why one must remember to recharge it every so often to avoid losing the enchantment.
These gems filled with mana have three different states;
-
Diminished: The gem can be filled.
-
Non-active: The gem cannot be filled because it’s lost all of its mana. The only way to re-activate the gem is to take the gem to an enchanter and allow them to examine and study it. This process usually takes quite a long time.
-
Broken: The gem is broken or has cracks on it. This gem cannot be fixed and/or filled.

I think he could be rather helpful to newer players. He's friendly and very approachable.
AfricanGlasses proved to be a little immature when I last spoke to him, but I doubt that will ever happen again.

The most chill, level-headed, and awesome dude I know on this server. Hugo would definitely be a great addition to the Application Team. He knows so much about the server's lore, it's just ridiculous. It's like he's gone through every piece of lore fifty times. I don't even need a LM anymore, anytime I have a question about any piece of lore, I go to Hugo.
Hugo is very friendly and approachable. New players that might be struggling with writing up a decent app could go up to Hugo and he'd do everything in his power to help them improve their application.
Take all the +1's I have. All of 'em
