Out-Of-Character Information The simplest section of the application. Answer these questions so we can get to know you a bit more. Please do your best to correct spelling and grammatical errors, this is an RP server and writing is the main form of communication! What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: - Sentatus How old are you?: - 17 Have you ever roleplayed on a minecraft server before? If so, where?: - Yes, this server, about 2 years ago Have you applied to this server before? (Please link past applications): - I have and was whitelisted (under the same account name) but it would appear you have updated your servers or something as the previous application is no longer on the forum. I hope it is alright to reapply using the same character. How did you hear about us?: - Google search What do you think the server will be like? - A rigorous and reliable RP experience Have you read and agreed to the rules?: - Yes What’s the rule you agree with the most?: - "Damaging other player’s buildings is allowed only with RP reasoning, and is encouraged to only be done when the owner of the building is online. RP reasoning can include vendettas or sieges, as an example." Do you understand combat rules, and what you can and can’t do if you do choose to roleplay as a villain?: - Yes. Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense?(If so maybe we can help clear it up! You will not be denied for having a question on the rules): - No, the rules are clear. Definitions These terms are a major part of the server and in a few of our rules. Please define them so that we can get an understanding of how much you know about roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers or check on our wiki, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not those of another website or person! What is roleplaying?: - Roleplaying is a chance to be another person entirely, in a different world entirely. What’s metagaming?: - Meta-Gaming is acting in-game according to out-of-game knowledge. This can be disruptive in roleplaying experiences for everyone, because the point is that your character acts as if he/she were real, and not as if he/she was just an avatar. Actions which are based on outside knowledge rather than what your character would actually do is Meta-gaming. What’s powergaming?: - Power-gaming is playing in such a way that keeps other players from being able to act or advancein the game, rendering their experience less enjoyable; or making your character too powerful when they realistically should not be. In-Character Information Now you actually make your character - be creative but stay reasonable! Make sure they make sense and that you follow lore. Try to come up with a character that you actually want to play. What’s your character called?: - Malvegil, son of Thorion What race are they? (and sub-race if applicable): - Human, Heartlander What gender are they?: - Male How old are they?: - 30 Give us a highlight of their past, What life events make your character the person they are today? This is your character's biography. It is also required to include server lore when writing. (Names of towns, major server events, etc. Most lore can be found on our wiki.): - Malvegil was born into a minor noble family of Abresi. His mother died in childbirth so his father was his only parent. From a young age, he proved to be exceptionally bright and well-suited to the intricacies of human politics. He became his father Thorion's chief advisor and administrator at the age of 15. As a child, Malvegil spent most of his time inside, as he was very shy and the other children mocked him for his mother's death; it was considered unlucky and a curse. Nonetheless, he led a happy life until tragedy struck when Thorion was killed while hunting. Whether it was accident or murder is unknown, but fould play is suspected for reasons that will soon become clear. However, Malvegil did not take his father's place, as was his birthright. The night after his father's demise, a man came in the night to kill him, that the lordship might pass to an ambitious relation rather than a boy. (Malvegil believes that the man was hired by the usurper, and has sworn to avenge his father's death.) Malvegil escaped, fortunately, and fled to the slums of the city to hide and take on a new identity. Thus, for 13 years he went by the name Alarios Denemer. He travelled the country, studying under whatever scholars he could find, whilst fleeing the wars which ravaged the lands. What are they like? (personality): - He is very intelligent and able to do well in most fields, whether leading an army or running a business. Although physically fit and healthy, he prefers to study than to fight. Having said that, he is also a man of duty and knows that when the war drums are beaten people such as him must step forth to lead the banners. What are their ambitions?: - After he spent several years working odd jobs as a clerk, he departed with a small amount of gold; enough to travel the realm. This is exactly what he intends to do. He is a man of great ambition and is determined not to let the calamities which have befallen him stand in his way. Do they have any special skills? What are their weaknesses? (Try to list a few of both): - Malvegil is highly educated, and well versed in statecraft and philosophy. He is healthy and strong although by no means an exceptional athlete or warrior. He is a hopeless craftsman and can come off as aloof or scornful of the uneducated. Give us a description of how they look?: - He is 30 years old, of average human stature, with light brown hair and blue eyes. Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: -

In-Character: Character Name: Malvegil son of Thorion What Race are you?: Human What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): Southeron Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): Malvegil was born into a minor noble family of one of the Kingdoms of Man. His mother died in childbirth so his father was his only parent. From a young age, he proved to be exceptionally bright and well-suited to the intricacies of human politics.

(Malvegil believes that the man was hired by the usurper, and has sworn to avenge his father's death.) Malvegil escaped, fortunately, and fled to the slums of the city to hide and take on a new identity. Thus, for 13 years he went by the name Alarios Denemer. He sought out a place where people such as himself were welcomed, and found the University of the city to be such a place. Here he learned the various races' languages and customs, so he is at home amongst dwarves, elves, or men. He also learned of the arts of war and leadership, which he would rightly have learned from his father; and he learned of the arcane, the study of magic and spirits and light and dark. After he spent several years working as an apprentice to the scholars, he departed with a small amount of gold; enough to travel the realm. This is exactly what he intends to do. He is a man of great ambition and is determined not to let the calamities which have befallen him stand in his way. He is 27 years old, of average human stature, with fair hair and blue eyes. He very intelligent and able to do well in most fields, whether leading an army or running a business. Although physically fit and healthy, he prefers to study than to fight. Having said that, he is also a man of duty and knows that when the war drums are beaten people such as him must step forth to lead the banners. What is your Character's ambitions?: Malvegil still grieves for the loss of his previous life, and has vowed to restore himself to his former position of influence. How he will do this he has not decided; however, the wealth and opportunity of Aegis consoles him that there is hope. What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): Axe. It can provide wood, which is one of the most versatile resources available. What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Malvegil learned the arcane arts during his time at the University, so is quite skilled in Magic. A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format): Other Information about your Character: Open-Response-Questions Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond? Malvegil dislikes fighting and much prefers diplomacy. However, when an apparently innocent life is in danger, he knows that violence is necessary. He draws his sword and charges the bandits, fighting alongside the halfling until both the marauders have fallen. He then helps the halfling into the cottage and tends to his wounds before setting off again, having gained a friend. Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response? "Good morning, sirrah. I would like to see what you have to offer in the way of books." After a short period browsing but finding nothing of interest, Malvegil instead purchases a cask of fine wine (for this he has a weak spot) and leaves after thanking the proprietor. Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?: Malvegil briefly contemplates taking the contents--he looks around furtively, to see if anyone is watching--but then decides against it. Although the hut looks deserted, it may be simply in disrepair, or worse, a trap. And anyway; if he had stashed items of such a value somewhere, he would expect them to be left alone. He leaves without disturbing the chest's items, although mildly curious as to what the hut and the chest were doing out in the wilds anyway. Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond? Malvegil looks cautiously at the traders; they could be highwaymen in disguise, after all. When he has determined that they are relatively safe, he approaches, keeping one hand on his sword-hilt. “Greetings, friends,” he says, eyeing the lead merchant. “I have been travelling for many days and I have nowhere to eat or lay my head. Would you mind if I rested here for a while? I am afraid I have no money, but I would be in your debt.” The merchants agree and Malvegil spends the night with them. Early in the morning he moves on after helping them pack up camp. You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?: Malvegil ignores the offer. Although the prospect of a quick reward is tempting, he would rather leave uncivilized activities like bounty hunting to the mercenaries. Instead, he continues his travels and search for glory elsewhere.
