*Glances at the note, a large smile on his face. Digging into his pouch, he places a piece of parchment under the man's note. Nailing it down hard, he steps back soon afterword.

"Furor Flame, I would happily invite you to join the Silverblade Bannermen. We provide food, shelter, armor, and weapons. You will not only have a purpose on the battle field, but you will fight for one of the richest, most nobles houses, in all of Asulon.

Signed,

Peter Chivay, Officer and Bannermen to the Silverblade forces."

*The coat of arms of the Silverblade house is stamped at the end of the parchment, as well as details entailing on how to join the house's men.*

(( If you wish to join, follow this thread here. If you have any questions, I would be happy to answer them in a PM on the forums. ))

(( The plot is 'temporcfort'. Is it not obvious that something went wrong here? ))

(( The fact that you are pushing for this to be removed, baffles me. You claim that is it just 'horrible RP', when I have to completely disagree entirely. The fact that it is there, should be taken in-character and that is just what we are doing. Yes, many of the points don't add up, such as vikings being in the desert, and it may just be 'temporary', but the fact of the matter is, is that it is there now.

I don't see why this warclaim should be cancelled, if anything, we should let the RP happen. If no one is there to defend it, no one is there, and we are allowed to take ownership.

Instead of abruptly stopping RP which some members have worked extremely hard to come to fruition, support it.

Although it may look that I have a bias standpoint, simply because I am on the invading side, I would defend this warclaim all the same, even if I was not part of the Subadai.

But we are all entitled to give our opinions, so, I respect you for having one and will not disagree any further. ))

*The Ambient sounds of chanting can be heard in the distance*

Borya grins under his face-covering, nodding at the news. Slowly propping himself off the floor, he maneuvers his arms into his long sleeves. Now, bowing in the Khagan's direction, "As my Khagan wills." Returning to his tent, Borya now begins to adorn his tinted armor, fixing the helmet tightly upon his head. Reaching down, he places his two axes into the small notches at his side. Stepping out of the tent, Borya simply stares to the right, in the direction of the Volsung fort. "The ocean is the blue blood of histories battles, and we shall soon fill its coffers." He mumbles to himself, remembering past events.

The Warbands, have been summoned.

Wonderful guide!

Very informative, professional, and, well, all the makings of a good guide.

(( Formally requesting for this to be updated.

With SKiddles and I activity recruiting, I think it is only fair that this be 'revived' so that our new members may be displayed on the roster.

As of right now, I have.

Bannerman| Occupation | MC Name

Peter Chivay | Farmer, Axeman, Lumberjack | sheumgal

Thomas Chivay | Blacksmith, Swordsman | Xxusmcsoldier8xX

Rodrick Gaerhart | Swordsman | crazyguy1916

Mathus Oftsea | Swordsman | danroth9

Possibly some more coming in, as well. I would gladly create another more formal roster/recruiting thread, just so upper-silverblades don't always need to be bothered to constantly keep track of recruits and the like. ))

A blacked out name appears.

April 12, 2012

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name:sheumgal

How old are you?:16

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: I am currently in the Eastern Standard Time Zone, as well as living in the United States.

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:Yes, I have an excellent grip of the english language, and all of its necessities.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I am a mature teenager, that has been RPing for upwards of three years now. I accept everyone, and can be rather picky when it comes to RP. I seek perfection in all RP scenarios, whether I am the winning party, or the losing one.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Upwards of 24-36 hours a week. I do have school, so that will subject my time. However, I will be as active as possible.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you:Considering I have been Roleplaying for upwards of three years, Roleplaying had created its own definition for itself. However, if I were to narrow it down it would most likely be something like this: Roleplaying is the act of taking yourself out of a normal perspective, and putting yourself into an entirely new pair of shoes. You will now need to act according to a character, and you will be that character, in any and all situations. With that being said, whether you feel you yourself would act a different way, you are to act onto what you have developed that character into. Whether it be a coward, or a brave fanatic.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?:Much of my Rolepalying has been done on Garrys Mod, as well as Minecraft. I have been a Head Admin on several RP servers, on Garrysmod. In-terms of Minecraft RP, I have only done it slightly. My friends and I set up a small server, where we had around 30 of us that would just play around in a medieval setting, making politics and subterfuge the main ways of Roleplaying.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:Meta-Gaming is the act of using OOC information, In-character. One example, would be, hearing a hint on Ventrillo that something is happening. You, hearing that information, would run to exactly where the sight is.

Another example, would be coming to the aid of your friends, in a time of need. Your friend, telling you that location, and you running half-way across the map, to help fight with him.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Power-Gaming is the act of forcing an action, onto another player. In-such way, that gives the opposing party, 1. No chance to react and 2. A forceful action that they may not want to do.

One such example, would be when you are about to mug someone. Instead of attempting to hit them in the back of the head, you simply run up and saying that you hit them. Killing them instantly.

What do you expect this server will be like?:I expect this server to be an ample RP experience. Combining the best aspects of Minecraft, with the wonderful invention of Roleplaying.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:The only Minecraft RP servers I have played on, was HGN’s Minecraft RP, as well as KsU’s Minecraft RP. I left them, because they became extremely inactive, and other members lost interest.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?:Yes, I have. And will abide by them accordingly.

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules:Yes, and if I were to break any of these rules, I would accept all due punishment.

How did you hear about us?:[/color]I heard about the server from a good friend, that is currently part of the Teutonic Knights.

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?:http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/50382-sheumgals-application/ I was denied, due to making my character too evil, in his back story. (I believe)

Have you posted this application on our minecraft forum thread yet? If not, just finish it up on here and then copy + paste is over there. (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/832121-%E2%96%91%E2%96%92%E2%96%93-the-lord-of-the-craft-%E2%96%93%E2%96%92%E2%96%91-enter-the-world-of-asulon-o-f-f-i-c-i-a-l-l-y-t-h-e-n-o-1-r-p-s-e-r-v-e-r/):

In-Character:

Character Name:Titus Mallus

What Race are you?:Titus Mallus is a human male.

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.): Since Titus was a young lad, he had always worked on his father's small plot of land. Whether it was tilling the fields, or even as simple as feeding the chickens. As the days progressed, he grew tired of a simple farmers work. Now, 23 years of age, a semi-muscular physique, strong stature, hazel eyes, and brown hair, he began to think of what he could possibly do after such a simple life. That is when the day came, Titus, while plowing a small field, had spotted a company of banner-men, moving across the long road. He dropped his plow, his jaw, dropping in succession. He was in awe of the soldier’s armor and knightly appearance. After such an event took place, this soon opened another chapter in Titus’ life. The one, of an aspiring swordsman and soldier.

Soon after, Titus had created himself a humble wooden sword, using whatever he could as practice with his swordsmanship. Whether it be hitting a small fence post or even using the side of the house. But, Titus’ father, was not too keen on this new ‘hobby’ that Titus had taken up. Wanting him to take over his farming business, Titus’ father sent him to sell the farms wares, at the nearest market. Being in the Renatus, Titus decided to venture to Arethor, the beautiful capital of the region. This only made Titus grip further onto the dream. After he had sold the wares, he thought long and hard on what his next move should be. Late at night, Titus returned home placing half the money earned from selling the wares, on the doorstep of his small house, accompanied by a note. This note held the reasoning of Titus’ leaving, and what he planned to do with his life. A small satchel of coin, his silver tongue, and swordsmanship are all Titus had left, as he set out for venture, in new Alras.

What is your Character's ambitions?:[/color]Titus’ ambitions are to, possibly become a banner-man for a nation. However, is still willing to live a humble and honest life, if he can’t fulfill his dream.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc):Titus’ favorite tool, would have to be the sword. As it was the most used, during his time practicing at home.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?[/color]Titus is very good at talking his way out of a situation, as well as swords-play. He tends to focus on these two things so much, other areas of his person, tend to be lacking.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format): Cloaked Peasent

Other Information about your Character:Titus is generally friendly, and would not do harm onto others. Although he is an ample swordsman, he is most certainly not the best. And having not seen any real combat, would most likely lose to a swordsman of higher experience, and caliber.

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? Titus Mallus peers onto the situation unfolding, shaking his head. "Arg... fuckin' bastards." Slamming his hands into his pockets, he continues on his way. "I'd teach um' a lesson if I had a damned blade... yeah, yeah I would." grumbling under his breath, to be sure that the armed men don't hear him.

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? Titus Mallus chuckles lightly, his eyes, lightly up at the exotic wares that the merchant has presented, saying “Eh... not sure’ sir, I don’t think a lowly’ fella’ like me can afford any ah’ this!”

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?: Titus slowly maneuvers his head, to peer through the doorway. He tilts it to the left, then the right. A large grin appears on his face, "Haha, appears to be my lucky day..." he states, softly under his breath. Taking small, quiet steps forward, he finally reaches the chest, taking the items with a large smile, dawned upon his face. Sneaking back out of the place, Titus quickly turns tail toward the nearest city, eager, to sell his new found wares.

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?Titus Mallus’ face lights up with hope and anticipation, seeing as the men are greeting him in a tongue he is familiar with. Titus gladly accepts their help, not taking too much of their items, only what he feels is necessary. Titus, now filled to his heart content, states "Why... thank ye' lads, I ain't never seen a kindness like this! I swear... Titus Mallus will repay ya'!" Quickly propping himself up, and leaving the camp. Once more, spouting out, "I swear it!"

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?: Titus Mallus' face glimmers with excitement, as he hears the town guard gather help. "Bought' time I get to do somethin'!" Titus quickly runs to the scene, heeding what the reward would entail. “I’m tellin’ ya’... this is finally me’ chance to get noticed!” Quickly looking around the group of people that have gathered, nearly shaking with excitement.
