Please excuse my typical first questions Have you restarted the computer? Have you restarted the client? Do you know how to fish in Minecraft? Are all of the particles turned on in your video settings to see the particles in the water for the fish? Have you tried fishing in other spots or ensured that you aren't landing your bobber on dirt? Have you attempted using a vanilla client if not already doing so? Sorry for the typical kind of IT inane troubleshooting questions. Feel free to entirely disregard this as I expect you are well aware of all these things and hopefully can debug your issue to this level on your own before deciding its a server issue.

I agree! Additionally since nine bars of Ferrum make up a single Ferrum Block, then we can safely assume 1 bar of Ferrum is one ninth the weight of a block of Ferrum. In that vein, a Ferrum Chest plate, forged from 8 Ferrum bars, would weigh 6,488kg. I also think that one person should not be able to hold an entire cubic meter of stone, seeing as that would weigh nearly 2,600kg. Extrapolating that to an entire inventory of stacks of stone this would weigh 5,990,400kg, or 6613 tons. Actually.. I like my Ferrum Axe not weighing approximately 2,400kg. I now disagree as I consider math and physics.

I personally do not believe this would work because I feel that the staff team would become a server-wide popularity contest in part, rather than simply looking at a player's aptitude for the job.

I still think the character is a little bit large perhaps consider making him a bit smaller still? Aside from that I see nothing that merits this app worth denying. As always this may be be revoked for severe lore breaking among other things, enjoy your stay in Menorcress.

~The height of a fully grown Mori’Quessir is on average 5'6" - 6'2", a child entering adolescence would not be this tall or weigh as much as an adult. ~The only reason he would be called handsome by a female would be to seduce him, compliments don’t exactly get paid out without ulterior motives. Rather they would be more likely to call him ugly if they did not care to waste their time with him. ~He would almost certainly be known to be weak by all who know of him if his usual raiment covered the majority of his body. ~His rebellion would swiftly be quelled, the first beating might be painful though the message would be clear. The second would be much more brutal, possibly even leaving him with open wounds across his entire back and other parts of his body. Were it to occur again I have little doubt the skin would be torn brutally across his back and the rest of his body and he would be left bleeding in an alley. Every beating after would get exponentially worse culminating with sacrifice if he would not conform and be a ‘proper’ Mori. ~Mori take many years to even become slightly more resilient against sunlight. In a period of two human years the more light that he could handle is not going to be noticeable. Not only is it painful, but it also causes blindness for many days and possibly even a week or more depending on how severely the eyes were damaged. Extended exposure or repeated severe exposure could even leave permanent damage to the eyes. Slowly over a space of two, possibly even three or more decades (Mori Year Decades) would a Mori become even noticeably more able to withstand light. It would take many years, easily surpassing a decade in Mori years before you would be as fully accustomed to light as possible. If you believe my judgement of this application was unfair, or that any of my points of denial were invalid you can PM me about them. You may reapply after 12 hours have passed and any necessary changes have been made to the application.

There are three reasons as to why this is denied. I am ordering them in descending order of Importance. ~Firstly, your characters age shows a lack of comprehension of the Human-to-Mori years relationship. Please look back at it, identify your mistake and fix what is incorrect. ~Second, the size of the character does not fit with it's age what-so-ever. A 30mYear old Mori would never be nearly fully grown as you have described so far. The tallest Mori only reach heights of 6'3" or maybe in a very rare case 6'5-6" tall, on average it is more 5'4"-6' tall. The possibility of a child being 5' tall at 30mYears old is impossible. ~Finally, I am just going to tell you this bit of lore. During the ritual of birth the parents give the child both the public, and the private names. The priestess presiding over the birth as well as the parents of the child all know the private name before the child is even aware it has one, much less decide upon his/her own. If you don't agree with my decision or you feel that I am wrong about anything I have mentioned feel free to PM me about this.

~A newborn is not technically a playable character, please fix the age to fit a more reasonable age. ~You have to have a name, get it from your parent or create it yourself with your parent's approval Please fix these simple things and either change the title to indicate the changes have been made or send me a PM.

Since we are sending players to represent us are they going to be asked to stay in character during the Minecraft Olypmics? I support Option 3 btw

Minecraft Account Name: Amethain Character Name: Haelrayne Alean’ndar Miiystra Race: Mori’Quessir (Obviously) Gender: Male Age: 74 (Mori’Quessir), 370 (Human) Appearance: His form is formidable even at his fairly young age, occasionally he is mistaken for an adult and stands taller than many already. He stands at a surprising 6’ (182cm) tall, towering over some of his shorter kin, but equal to or taller than many of his kin. He grew much quicker than most and also has ceased growing taller at his young age. Usually his attire is a kilt-like garment covered in the colors of his house. This leaves his toned body visible, proudly displaying the results of many hundred weeks of running, fighting, and climbing. He is might seem small, though his entire frame covered in dense, powerful muscles, attributing to his weight of nearly 148lbs(62kg). Hael's right iris is a golden amber color that seems to glow and give off its own light, the left eye is a piercing icy blue color, both of which are set in a pale gray colored sclera. He is often seen with a dismissive look on his face, hooded eyes and sometimes a sneer of disgust depending on the person whom he is addressing. Personality: He is a calculating person, never taking a risk unless it is absolutely necessary. He rarely makes snap decisions, unless he is certain they will have no negative effects on him in the future. He keeps close tabs on most everything he does, even small things to how many bottles of a poison he has prepared. He prides himself greatly on becoming the best poisoner in time, though he can afford to wait and learn. He is fiercely competitive and rather jealous, occasionally these traits get into fights and often he sustains many minor injuries. His jealousy knows no bounds, he will do almost anything to hold on to or obtain whatever his desires are set upon. Biography: The child Haelrayne Alean'ndar Miisytra was born unto Vieraen Alean'ndar and Num'rinith Miisytra along with his twin sister, Rikal. Hael and Rikal are near-identical twins the main difference between them is their sex, though their colorful eyes also define them. The Mother of Hael and Rikal, Vieraen, died when they were still but young children; their father, Numrni’th, was forced to leave them to live alone on the streets whilst he went off to fight in a war. These years toughened Hael greatly as he he fought to survive among the harsher side of his people. He had been raised primarily in a soft home, not experiencing the hardships faced by those living on the slums and on the streets. All this quickly changed as he learned to steal and attack others to keep life and limb together. His main escape from the rigours of living among the commoners was to the roofs of the city and his harp. Climbing came to him naturally, he trained hard to make it almost his second nature as he scampered about the roofs of Menorcress. He is at home clinging high above the ground hanging on to slight crevices in the stone of the caves where a slip would be potentially fatal. Olarae always told him he would die by falling, maybe she was right, but it didn’t matter, he never stopped climbing. As Hael entered the middle years of his adolescence he was ripped once again from all that had become familiar. Just as he was thrown into a harsher environment as a young child again he was faced with a seemingly impassable obstacle. He awoke to find darkness all around him, the sound of a myriad of creatures running on the cold dark rocks. Scratching sounds echo throughout the large cavern as all sorts of dark leviathans scurry about him. The cavern was large with a vast expanse of water filling most of it, much like many caves Hael had previously explored, though this one was totally unfamiliar to him. He walked about the dark cave searching for where he might’ve been brought in from. The cave has many, many tunnels weaving in and out in no particular manner and finding his way home seems hopeless at first. As his eyes rove through the dark he sees a slight glow is emanating from the floor inside one of the larger passages. As he approached the golden dust shone a yellowish aura in the near vicinity. Hael approaches cautiously to examine the powder only to find is just the spores of a common mushroom disturbed and their light fading on the ground. Glancing about he sees none of the mushrooms, only the spores lay here on the ground. Assuming they had been used as a light source by whoever left him here he ventures into the tunnel beginning his long arduous journey back towards his home. He does not find his way easily, nor is it without its toll. He develops a great weakness during the near decade he was missing from his home. Upon his return to Menorcress this frailty quickly came to light and it has become one of his greatest kept secrets apart from his personal studies. He returned to Menorcress only to be confronted by an old nemesis, Xemn’Vus. During his absence from the city Xemn had revived the cities guard, the Kyorls. Hael had no idea of the changes that had happened within the Kyorls or the whole city. Most notably of all these things would be the rise of Duskryn and the resurrection of the Miiystra house. He soon returned to his rightful house of Miiystra and currently lives in the near-deserted Miiystra compound. Your characters ambitions: To serve the Mother in all things, and be willing to take any and all punishment doled out by the Mother for his actions. He also seeks always greater power, though never openly in the female dominated society. Why does your character do what he/she does? Hael’s decisions are primarily founded upon malice and pride, though lust and jealousy also play into many of his decisions. What moral boundaries does your character adhere to, if any? Do nothing for oneself if it is not in the Mother’s will, eradicate those whom She says to kill. What are some notable strengths and weaknesses of your character? Dedication is by far his most notable attribute, if he starts something he will finish it. He studies plants and their possible uses, though he uses them in less than honorable ways. He is a fighter, though no where close to being the best. He relies more on his poisons and reflexes to win a fight. He tends to use many of his own poisons on himself to determine accurately their effects on a body. Oftentimes depending on the size of the doses it can leave him near exhausted and unable to fight. He sometimes uses a type of drug that leaves him in a fog, unable to concentrate on anything for a decent period of time(more than like 20s). He uses this to clear his head and relieve stress, though it leaves him complacent to most things that would certainly be stopped were he lucid. What role will your character play in Asulon? A strong-willed person, who will stop at almost nothing to reach his goals and protect his assets. Is your character loyal or a backstabber? He is fairly loyal to those whom he trusts rather well, though is likely to turn on them in a moments notice if they happen to interfere with his goals. Are you familiar with all server/villain application rules? Yes, I am Evils to be considered for? 1, 2a, 2b & 4 Why do you as a player wish to and think you deserve to play as a villain? I do not believe that any player ‘deserves’ to play a villain, but rather it is a privilege designed for the sole purpose of providing fun and possibly unique RP to the community. I believe I have done so in the past and would appreciate the ability to do so in the future. ===Roleplay Related Questions=== As your character wanders the back-streets of Menorcress, you sight a cloaked figure lurking in one of the shadowed nook behind the Brothel: a rustle of cloth is heard, and the figure ushers you in with a skeletal finger. The hooded figure imparts information involving a conspiracy to overthrow the House of Miiystra, and offers you a hefty sum of coin to partake in the planned attack. How does your character react? The dim light from the red lamps of the city cast dancing shadows about the two as they quietly converse in the ill-lighted alley. A mere glow is all that covers the two as they speak behind the brothel. There is a slight hum in the air as voices and sounds echo throughout the immeasurable vastness of the caverns. The traitor speaks, his voice sounds as a blade upon the whetstone; its sound harsh and its message honed for destruction. “Natha stath klew'kinnen d'dosst draeval, lu'dos zhal dro 'zil natha valuk. Nau velendev mih rath xor rath'argh’d a l'Miiystra qu'ellar” (A few hours of your time, and you shall alive as a king. No longer held back or dishonored by the Miiystra house.) Hael nods pensively as the words sink in, there is a threat against his family. This old man is a part of the plot, and an example must be made to subdue the rest. Hael speaks using 'we' to slightly align himself and ease the tension that hangs so thickly between them. “Lu'oh mzil gareth ph'udos nin?” (How many strong are we now?) The response does not matter, this man will die for his treachery he thinks to himself. Hearing the man’s response he turns to leave as his hand falls to the hilt of his blade. As he goes to take a step he stops as if he forgot something turning his head to speak with the man once more as his body tenses to strike, though he needs one vital bit of information. “L'Yathrinen zhaun naubol d'nindol, 'bgualyiz?” (The priestesses know nothing of this correct?) As the man affirms the guess the sound of a blade being drawn is heard while Hael spins and thrusts it into the traitor’s body pushing him back until they smash into the wall. The blade buried deep in the old man’s abdomen Hael brings himself closer to whisper into the man’s ear. Hael’s voice rings out as a knell to the dying man as blood pours from his open chest. “Dos el whol og'elendar qua'laen l'Ilhar lu'qua'laen ussta fuma, Miiystra. L'amith dosst vaen miserable munat.” (You die for treason against the Mother and against my family, Miiystra. Enjoy your last miserable moments.) As the life drains from the man’s body Hael marks him with the pooling blood as a sacrifice and drags him out of the alley into the streets. He leaves the body in the better lit stone paths to be consumed by spiders and whoever else might be hungry enough. As you turn the corner into a dimly lit alley, a pair of young female rothe (slave/cattle) instantly run up to you. They are begging for a donation of either coin or bread. How does your character react? As Hael walked around the corner he sheathed his blade that is now clean of the traitorous blood it had recently spilt. The sight of two slaves running towards him causes his mood to almost immediately sour as he assumes he is being sought out for something. Their plaintive cries for food or money reach his ears as they approach quickly. Looking them over he sees nothing to worry about, the young females pose no immediate threat and he decides to point them in the direction of some fresh meat. Nodding his head back in the direction he came he says plainly “Over there, there should be some free food for you. I left a good amount.” With a small sparkle in his eyes he adds, “Just look for the old man, he will provide your meal.” As they scurry off he stands just by the corner to hear their cries before dashing off and ascending to his rooftops. Once on top of the roofs he begins running towards the edge of the caverns where he hears a small commotion brewing. Two guards try to break up a fight between your acquaintance and two members of another qu'ellar [house]. Your 'friend' slays one of the guards as he approaches, causing the others to draw their arms. How does your character react? Upon finding the source of the noise Hael peers down into the lit street below l seeing his soon-to-be dead ‘friend’ strike down one of the Kyorls. As much as he dislikes the Alean’ndar they do fight well when they are prepared and have strength in numbers. Seeing two of their ilk teaming up just to fight a single male amuses him greatly. As the three armed fighters close in on his ‘friend’ he knows the outcome and just leaves the area letting the fool be slaughtered for his crimes. Your character finds him/herself watching the Alure d'aphyon: the several fighters within the void maze wield only sticks as they prove their prowess as warriors by battling to the death. One of fighters happens to be a close companion of yours, and you witness him being strategically cornered by three of the other fighters and beaten to death. While the crowd cheers in celebration of the violence, and the death of your friend. How does your character react? As the scene unfolds before him all Hael can think of is how pathetic this ‘friend’ is. He let his foes corner him and is now about to die by their hands. When the man no longer moves, the last ounce of strength drained from his broken body, Hael stands and cheers with the rest for the stronger of his kin, glad that some weakness had been purged from his people. He even might go so far as to offer the winners a drink at the Torchlight later on. A male and female rivvil [human] and a rivvil child seem lost amidst the alleyways of byr'shuk [outsider-market]. The woman walks with a long staff, and the man appears to have a scabbard at his side. How does your character react? As he approaches the humans his eyes rove about them assessing if they are a threat or not. Upon nearing them he notes the lack of a blade in the man’s scabbard and his fears are slightly assuaged seeing as these humans abide by the laws of the city so far as he can tell. Though speaking with those whom are not among his kin is distasteful; he typically does so without visible aggression as he was commanded by the Yathrin. “If you are searching for the ship it’s just around that corner and should sail shortly for the Cloud Temple.” Hael says simply as he points off in the direction the docks. As the child hides behind the female Hael cannot help but think of how pathetic the openness of the child’s fear is. The woman begins to thank Hael for his advice, but the man speaks over her, silencing her, “Thank you my friend.” Hael strives not to visibly grimace at the mere thought of being a human’s friend, much less the male speaking over a female. He gives a curt nod to the humans before striding away as his face contorts into a picture of confusion mixed with fury. Hael glances back to see the child staring off after him as it is led towards the docks with the couple. A thought enters his mind as they pass out of his sight, `Perhaps the young could be salvaged and raised correctly if in a proper environment.` He does not dwell on the confrontation for long before the entire event and idea vanishes completely from his mind, like smoke in the wind. A Screenshot of your skin:

I still think the application itself is sub-par, but upon speaking with the applicant about the character I believe it has been well enough thought out and worthy of being accepted conditionally. The Terms: You will have a 1-2 week Trial Period. During this time I want you to fully play out your character as best you can. Try to stick to the lore, and the subtle differences between Mori and everyone else. Specifically, Do not go into daylight, glowstone light, or other very bright lights without a veil(Can be on your skin, a derpy looking pumpkin, or even something simpler just Rp'd). I will probably not be the only one Rp'ing with you, and others will be giving me their opinions on you role-play. If it is satisfactory at the end of the trial period, then you will be fully accepted into the Mori. However, if you prove to be lacking in the quality (Power/Meta-Gaming, Blatantly Breaking Lore, etc.) during the trial period. (Or just terribly breaking lore whenever after) I will promptly revoke your privilege to play the Mori character. If you agree to these terms go ahead and register and modreq your characters Race to Mori. Otherwise, you can try to put a bit more detail and length into the application and try again for a full acception. NOTE: My decision does not cover the VA part of the Application, that will be confirmed by Dusk or Respiren.

~~ Heterozygous simply means a dominant and recessive Allele. Heterozygous Definition If the eyes are different colors I would assume you mean Hetero-chromatic. ~~ It is very short, I can hardly imagine this character much less would I care to come in contact with such a under-formed person. ~~Mori are fastidious groomers, if he intends on being noble appearing unkempt is quite counter-productive. ~~He is a proud Mori, therefore he has ones whom he generally serves... ~~This is incredibly short and I see almost no personality. All I see is he is proud. I see nothing on many other aspects of a person's personality such as; is he outgoing/reclusive, mature/immature, dominant/deferential, apprehensive/confident. I would like to see a great amount more detail in this area. ~~I see no biography here, I see a short description of his past. It merely talks of his parents abandoning him and the rest is simply nonsense about him finding a knife and talking of him taking years to learn how to use it. ~~What of his family? Will they not recognize him upon his return and reveal who he is? Did he know anyone in the past, could they identify him? ~~Who trained him in the art of a blade? Slicing pigs and cows is incredibly different from fighting another being. Also training yourself you cannot possibly expect to have the skill or tact of those who hone their skills upon one another. ~~ He prefers not to kill unless he has to. Yet, multiple times you talk of killing without a second thought. Just look in the spoiler here Your own reason for wanting a VA. The answer to the second of the VA questions. The answer to the Fourth VA question. ~~Near sword mastery upon pigs as far as I can tell from your bio. I will be rather blunt with you and I understand you have been playing a Mori character for a while. I think the application is pathetic, just like your prior one. I would certainly have denied it had I taken charge of it. Hearing of your prior role-play I am severely disappointed in the quality of this application. This Application is...

I have nothing personally against PVP'ers themselves, I just feel it detracts from role-play in many circumstances. There is nothing inherently wrong with PVP at all.

From what I can tell and have personally seen that resembles House Flay in some ways...

This application is being conditionally accepted on a trial basis where you will be evaluated and allowed to develop your character in the current setting of Menorcress. I am a tad bit wary of how the character was able to grow up without ever experiencing the darker side of Mori Life. I would have preferred it to be more of a facade and not her true personality to be so naive, but we will see how it plays out and it should provide an interesting aspect to the roleplay as she develops in Menorcress. You will have a 1-2 week Trial Period. During this time I want you to fully play out your character as best you can. Try to stick to the lore, and the subtle differences between Mori and everyone else. Specifically, Do not go into daylight, glowstone light, or other very bright lights without a veil(Can be on your skin, a derpy looking pumpkin, or even something simpler just RP'd). I will probably not be the only one Rp'ing with you, and others will be giving me their opinions on your character. If it is satisfactory at the end of the trial period, then you will be fully accepted into the Mori. However, if you prove to be lacking in the quality (Power/Meta-Gaming, Blatantly Breaking Lore, doesn't fit with the culture at all etc.) during the trial period. (Or just terribly breaking lore whenever after) I will promptly revoke your privilege to play the Mori character. If you agree to these terms go ahead and register and modreq your characters Race to Mori. Enjoy and Welcome to the Mori'Quessir!

((I understand there should be some time for the men to rest and resupply. However, if they fall in battle they are not likely to be fighting in a few weeks or even a month depending on how severe their wounds were. Some men probably would be rendered useless and unable to fight ever again. Sure, this would happen on both sides, unless they were sent home to be tended by the monks or respective healers for their nation. My point is, if they were injured to some great extent then they would not be fit for battle and possibly would/should die from the injuries unless relieved from duty and sent to get proper care.))

((I would just like clarification, this is one long continuous assault if I am not mistaken. So any men that fall in battle should not be participating in further battles along the length of this crusade. I am not sure how many men you would have left when you reach the farther cities or continents. I do not think even all the fighting men of Oren could accomplish this without a bunch of them fighting in every battle regardless of outcomes or previous fatalities. I personally think this is ridiculous from a manpower standpoint. The army plans to take on a small number of large cities and then an entire nation. Would someone mind explaining how this can be done without 'recycling' players and characters?))

((Your statement seemed to mean a more extensive grasp on the language, though still you shouldn't know it at all if you weren't taught it. If you wish to expand your vocabulary and knowledge of the Mori Language you have to learn it through legitimate In-Character RP.))
