Well, I'd like to say that I'm a nice sort of guy, although I can get angry if provoked enough. I like to play video games, I've been playing them since I was 5 and I've always liked RPG games.
How much time could you be on the server weekly?:
I could be on the server anytime past 4pm on weekdays. I can be on the server at anytime on the weekends. I have no set sleeping schedule so I can be on the server whenever I'm up essentially.
What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.:
To me, roleplaying gives a whole new depth to any game. With enough imagination you can assume the role of your character, almost as if you're in the game yourself. It can be be extremely fun and entertaining for hours on end, trusting other people roleplay as well.
In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are.
In my view, metagaming is where people use external information they found elsewhere besides the game, to benefit themselves in game. Such as obtaining information not in game (which would mean not in character) to benefit themselves in game (in character). I believe people who powergame are not experiencing the full extent of roleplaying, in my own opinion this can be quite annoying.
What do you expect this server will be like?:
I expect that this server will be extremely fun. I've heard of this server from a friend, and from what I've heard it sounds like an amazing server.
What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:
I've played on many servers, the most recent being 'mcnsa.com'. They've all been Vanilla servers with no roleplaying to it. I'd guess that this is why I have gotten so bored of them and left them recently. As I love to roleplay and from what I've heard of this server, I won't be disappointed.

Yes I have.

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):
This is the beginning of the story of an elf. His story started when his parents first met. His father was a Dark Elf who traveled with his companions throughout the land. One day they happened upon a village in the vast forest of Malin. His father, who was normally reclusive, took quite a liking to Aewoynn. His father was gifted in the looks department, so it did not take long for Aewoynn to take a particular liking to his father. His father had noticed this, and many moons had passed since he had felt a woman's warmth, so he let his lust get the better of him.
His father and the father's companions left early the next morning, before Aewoynn could even catch his name, as she hadn't bothered in the midst of their encounter. Aewoynn found out in the coming months that she had be impregnated, she hadn't had anymore encounters so she knew that he had to be his father. Now more than ever she regretted not catching his name, as chances are in the vast world of Aegis her child would never meet his father, let alone know his father's name.
The day finally came when the child was born, it was a long and painful labor, and at many points the midwives did not expect the child to live, but finally at the crack of dawn the child was born. An exhausted Aewoynn picked up the child, who was about average size, and knew she had to choose a name before she let her heavy eyelids fall. So she chose the name of Sigmoad, the name of one of her ancestor's who founded the village she resided in.
Sigmoad had a relatively easy childhood, as the villagers took pity on Aewoynn and gave her many gifts to help with raising Sigmoad. These donations were not enough though, and Aewoynn often went unfed just so she could feed Sigmoad. Sigmoad learned this and soon picked up the skill of hunting so that he could feed his mother and himself without having to rely on the villager's help. Sigmoad often went days in the forest, in rough weather or not, to find game to kill. This helped him grow into a man, as he learned self-reliance at a very young age. He soon grew into a ragged, muscular young man, mostly due to his time spent hunting.
Pretty soon Sigmoad was overcome with wanderlust after hearing many stories and tales of the land outside Malin. Once he had visited enough villagers he trusted and had their promise that they would take care of his mother, he had decided to depart the next day. Sigmoad told Aewoynn of his decision and while she did not like it, she understood. He reassured her that he would come back someday, but he felt that he had to do this, by some subconscious need.
This is where the current chapter of Sigmoad's life begins. With his departure of all he's ever known, what will become of him?
