Have you read and agreed to the rules?: - Yes What’s your favourite rule / the rule you agree with the most?: - Don't break rules established by lore Definitions This is simply so that we can get an understanding of how much you know about roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not another website / person's! What is roleplaying?: - Pretending to be someone else. However, you must fully express your created character, this means not only means simply playing the character, but understand to express emotion, and smaller subtleties that do not exist in just words.

I.E. you call someone by their name when you haven't met, or have knowledge your character should not have (unless the have learned obviously) What’s powergaming?: - Making your character too powerful in an RP situation. It kills the moment when someone just wants to win and not enjoy the ever-changing but fluid flow of roleplaying.

Her parents were of average wealth, however, they were constant seeker's of knowledge. Constantly seeking intellectual enlightenment, which led her well off eduction. Her parents had witness the destruction of the plague, but she had seen little of it. Her well off education enabled her to see the current 'imbecilic' society that often surrounds her. She group around her parents, constantly expanding her intelligence; however, as she continued to become brighter and brighter, she soon began to loathe the rest of society. Her parents were quite disconnected from society, yet Loriel was inquisitive. She visited miscellaneous towns, never truly becoming friends with people, she was at most, and acquaintance. She sets off permanently from her parents house to make a true impact in society.

She is very elitist, but prefers to keep it to herself. What are their ambitions?: - She seeks power, not direct power such as being a leader as a king/queen. But more deceptive power, she wants to pull the strings of the people around her. While wealth may be a subconscious goal, the true aspiration is bend the will of those around her Do they have any special skills?: - She prefers to use her beauty, wits, and education to elevate herself above others. She is untrained in all forms of combat, but is above-average in terms of physical condition and capable of running away/escaping. She has a partial education in Ancient Elven, but seeks to learn more. What are their weaknesses?: - As said, no combat training at all, as well as little trade skill, she truly does believe the pen is mightier than the sword! She is very independent with an inflated ego which she *attempts* to hide. If she gets in a fight, she will probably attempt to talk her way out of it. If that fails, she will probably run. If truly in a pickle, she will *attempt* to fight. Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Anything else you want to say about them?: - No, The app is a lot easier than it used to be! I do miss the situational story you had to create, it gave good insight into how the person was going to RP :/ Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: Did this one from scratch, I really think it matches the personality, see link Snowy background: http://postimg.org/image/mp4gk8fgz/ Fantastic, there you go. No need to write any more - simply post this on our forums (and on MinecraftForum like it says above) and wait!

First and foremost I enjoyed how you set up your post. It was very clear to read. However, I thoroughly disagree with a telekinesis mage using "energy barriers". I agree that a telekinesis mage should be able to move objects with their mind, but how can they create energy shields. Moreover, it seems like there is more of a focus on these barriers/shields than it is on mental the mental pull of objects. Whats wrong with the idea of the energy barriers? When I read about energy barriers, I thought it was a great idea, when I read the telekinesis part, it was a great idea. But then when I pieced the two together, it felt like a combination of two branches of magic. One being telekinesis, the other (forgive me for saying this) alteration from Oblivion. Though I know alteration in oblivion also had telekinesis in the alteration tree (I think), I also disagreed with that. Whats the difference between telekinesis and energy barriers ? To me, I feel like telekinesis is the ability to mentally manipulate physical objects. Meaning, the mage is able to mold and move objects to their needs. However, Energy barriers is a completely different idea. This one being a shield of pure energy (no physical manipulation, but rather "energy" manipulation). I feel as though someone could spend their entire life studying the ability to create a shield, and one could also spend their entire life around the concept of manipulating objects. Further explanation of why the two are incompatible (in my mind at least) Most magics operate on energy, or physical; though it is interesting to combine the two, I feel that it needs to be separated. If a telekinesis mage needed to create a shield, why wouldnt he just take a chunk out of the earth and bring it before him and his opponent. It also would probably require less energy that creating an entire wall of pure energy between you and your opponent. Take for example a meeting between a mage and a rober. Robin Hood's evil twin jumps out of the trees and demands ALL the mages money The mage declines Evil twin readies an arrow and prepares to take aim on the mage Stop here now, this is where a mage can go multiple ways. A telekinesis mage has a few options, while an ... alteration mage has a lot of choices as well, let me give you a few possible scenarios The telekinesis mage responds by quickly locating a pebble and attempts to fling it towards the arrow, in hopes of breaking it. OR The telekinesis mage decides to attempt to wrench to bow out of the persons hands using their mind powers. OR The telekinesis mage attempts to form an earthen shield from the ground, and place it between him and his target. Right there, the mage just chose three paths, each according to agression styles (Passive, normal, agressive) Now, same scenario, but now with a mage that is only but for wards and shields (alteration lets call it for the moment) The mage starts to form a U shaped shield. The arrow flies towards the mage, but the mage bends his shield and the arrow loops around in the semi-circle and starts to head towards the archer. The mage forms a wall of energy between him and his target, hoping that when the arrow is shot, it will merely bounce off and no one will be harmed The mage encases the man in an energy box, preventing him from getting out, or shooting the arrow. So what was the point of all that? It was to demonstrate that a telekinesis mage already has the tools he needs to get by, and doesn't need that additional energy barrier. In fact, I think you already have the premise to create a second branch, completely devoted to energy barriers. However, I feel like that as of right now, the mage would have an extremely diverse set of paths, that, compared to other mages, might seem overpowered. Take all those scenarios, now what you are proposing, is what should be given to one mage. I feel that your style of telekinesis, is denying what could possibly be an entire new branch of magic. And thus, preventing more depth from being developed. All in all, it was a great idea, its just when put together, its not like the glorious combination of: toast and butter, PBJ, or meat and cheese. It felt more like you were putting bbq sauce and mustard on a nice piece of steak. Sure each one may taste good on it by itself, but together it ruins it. Solutions? I believe that you should actually create another branch entire devoted to the ability to create shields (believe it or not, I think it has tremendous depth... look at the choice of scenarios. I only named three, and each one also appeared logical. If you need help with the U shield, just think it out before pm'ing me). While also keeping your current telekinesis branch, just remove the idea of energy shields. I too have spent time outlining this, hopefully you guys can see what I'm getting at. (Instead of having a reduced amount of depth in one branch, expand it out into two branches, and thoroughly explore it) Replying to you Q and A questions: Can't move the ground, ocean, etc (earth, water); due to too many particles I disagree, because I see no difference in removing a chunk of the earth, than picking a shield off the ground with your mind. Sure the mage might have to expend more energy carving out the earth before using it as a shield. But it would also allow the attacker to gain a slight edge when attacking. It also would cause the mage to get more drained, than supposing to pick up a decent sized rock, and not carve it out. Can't stop moving objects There are a few things wrong with this statement, first of all, that means when you start to manipulate an object, you lose control. For the moment you start bending it or moving it... well, exactly. I think higher mages should be able to stop faster objects, at the expense of more energy. Perhaps the mage can also "redirect" the arrow, instead of completly stop it. Think of catching a baseball with your hand. It hurts a shitload to try and stop it straight up. However, if you absorb some of the energy by drawing your arm backwards after catching it, it reduces the pain by a lot. Thus, the mage can redirect the arrow, for only a little energy (change the course of it by a little) This would provide the solutions to create the two branches as stated earlier, sorry for posting it later.

Lock the thread, I'm just going to personally apply to a few

Character Name: Alexandra_Aurora (Freddy_krueger) Race: Human Sex: Female Age: 28 Bio: Don't be cheatin, and read the post ! A young woman walks up to the board, and tacks on a large sheet of paper Greetings fellow citizens of Asulon, my name is Alexandra Aurora. I am a young woman seeking refuge in a passive guild. I seek not to be affiliated with other pugnacious people. I am well educated and offer a common, but helpful set of skills. I am skilled at farming (54) as well have experience in cooking (35). I seek to supply my Order/Guild/House with delectable delicacies. I also expect the Order/Guild/House to have over 7 members. In addition to cooking scrumptious foods, I am also a wandering merchant. I travel to various towns buying their specialties for the cheapest prices. I then proceed to a new city and offer them less-common items. However, due to a recent misfortune, I have lost my wealth. Lastly, seek a mentor to train me as master farmer and cook. I look forward to meeting interested ambassadors of the Guilds! I hope to see everyone in game!

Thanks for the support guys. I hope to see you in game!

What is up everyone! I tried out LOTC many months ago, but was discouraged by the lack of people I met. However, I'm giving it another shot! Despite my fun and unique IRL, it is sometimes nice to be able to escape to a world such as this. So why should you even care? Well, first of all I'm pretty awesome and unique. Friends call me Frebreeze, that's right, the airfreshner! Secondly, I love my bros. Not just bloodline, but bros as in close friends. I'm from Southern California and I enjoy surfing and swimming. I used to do waterpolo, but I'm just not YOLKED enough to continue it. I know my avatar is just too dam sexy, feel free to comment (Picture from summer junior year, going into senior year). Moreover, I am posting this just to try and meet some people so the world of Asulon won't be so lonely! Break the ice, and add some spice --> A term I thought of in my early high school years. It's a good phrase to go by. Pretty much means be outgoing and different, but in such a more awesome way. BTW I enjoy pretending to be barney as well in public, stating the words: Awesome, Legendary, Suits (I have walked around just for fun w/ me friends in a suit). Not much to say, but really... you should get to know me

Out-Of-Character: Minecraft Account Name: Freddy_Krueger Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?: No How old are you?: 16 Time-Zone/Country of Residence: Pacific time, USA Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Definitely Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: Sophomore in high school who used to play RPG’s (I used to also play Team Fortress 2 competitively) and am very interested in roleplaying. I do waterpolo and swimming, as well as take classes at a college. How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I would say about 2 hours a day, probably a total of 15 hours a week What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: Roleplaying is when one pretends to be a specific character. This newly created person then earns a name for himself, and gains a personal backround history. You effectively create a whole new life for yourself. The thing is though, you can't bring the other life into the roleplaying life, its supposed to be an entity of its own. Though I have never role-played before, I am hoping to become just as experienced as you guys ! In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. Metagaming - Using resources to gather “illegal” information about someone. This means that you used your real life information (or whatever other forms) to cheat and learn about someone else’s ingame life. An example would be me knowing someone or something without ever meeting them in game Powergaming - Is when one becomes power hungry and seeks to be the very best (Pokemon reference +1 !). It is a person who makes their character overpowered and is unkillable, or is extremely powerful. What do you expect this server will be like?: I really have no idea of what to expect, I am hoping it will be a wonderful place. I am picturing it to be a server that has four general areas and within those areas are perhaps cities or city-states. And that all the characters would behave like the would as a real entity (not a person playing a computer generated being). I am hoping to make a large amount of friends (hopefully pertaining to my race too) and work with them. What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I used to play on SuperFunTime but it has changed to much for me. I have been playing MC since middle alpha and the server has gone from complete survivability to almost creative. Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes How did you hear about us?: I was searching for servers in Minestatus and I found yours, I have experience voting. Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you? Yes number : 2432 What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?: freddy_krueger In-Character: Character Name: Finym Taralom; but all my friends call me Finny What is your Race?: Elf Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): As a young boy I lived beneath a tree which was adjacent to the lake. I had many friends while growing up, but as time went on, everything changed. My friends slowly grew apart from me, they spent more time together, and less time with my. I began to feel a bit lost, and I created a small and tight group of friends. Together, we left home and became a traveling group of boys at the mere age of 16. We eventually learned to live of the wild, honed our combat skills, and often dueled together. I eventually became the greatest shadowrunner of them. From my kingdom a shadowrunner is one who runs like breeze on a cool autumn day, and strike like a venomous viper in the dark. One day, our group was ambushed by a group of slavers, and they sought to bound us in shackles. All of us tried to get away, but I was the only one successful. I have now walked for many days and am seeking refuge in your wonderful kingdom of Aegis. As of right now I am nearing about 23 years old and have sun bleached brown hair. My friends often like to refer to me as a fish, for I enjoy the water much more than the average elf. I enjoy the shadows as much as I do the light, but do mind extreme heights. Though many know me to be quick to talk, I am not so ready to unsheathe my blade. Living on my own, I have been forced to eat the slimmest of items, causing me to be less than average size, but don’t let that fool you! After leaving home at such a young age, I have little knowledge on how to read and write. My fingers are always itching for some more money, and have seen the pockets of many. Though talented with daggers, my hands have seen some action with bows Your characters ambitions: I am seeking a group of travelers who will come with me and live as I had lived before. I wish to find refuge in the trees, and a home by the water. In addition to my trained skills I am quite brilliant with what our kingdom called, redstone. I am ready to defend my race and support our cause. Out in the Wilds, your character comes across a small cottage. Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two bandits. What does your character do? At a first glance, I stiffen up and recall my terrible accident back in my old domain. Though my gut tells me to run like I did with my old friends. Shouting out to the bandits, I ask what they do. They hear me not. I decided to stealth-fully approach from behind. Twirling my dagger, I step forth from the shadows and the shinning blade slits the first mans throat. The second bandit turns toward me and I am terrified at what to do next. Untrained in direct combat, I initially seek out cover back in the woods. Yet I am unable to run away, leading him around a tree, I swing my leg around, causing his knees to buckle and he falls to the ground. Once more I whirl my dagger in my hand, shortly ending the blow with a knife sticking out of his body. Bounding over to the beaten Elf, I help him up and asks if he would like for me stay the night with him. Nightfall was soon on us, and the swishing on the river lulled me to sleep. In the morning I wake up, only to see a note on my bed, “Thank you for disposing my enemies for me, signed-- Your Friend” I began to think to myself if I had done the right thing, perhaps this wasn’t really the elf’s house... Your character walks up to a shop in the middle of Al'Khazar. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer? Greetings ! I am seeking the seeds of a white tree that will grow to be about four blocks high. In addition to the first order I would like to buy a a starters kit consisting of: A crafting table, stone set of tools, and a furnace . A screenshot of your skin: In attatchments Other Information:
