In your own words, define what the act of Roleplaying is:

Rooleplaying is when a person or group of people get together and do unscripted acting. Unlike preforming a play/movie, RP gives you the opportunity to do whatever you want, making it an enjoyable experience. Also, it isn’t set therefore anything could happen, giving it the feel of real life, only in a much more outlandish yet amazing way.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:

Metagaming is when one uses OOC information IC. An example of Metagaming would be if dwarf A tells dwarf B over skype, “Help! SEVEN ORCS AT THE GATES” then dwarf B comes rushing to the gates immediately afterwards with a group of other dwarves, ready to fight the orcs.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is:

Powergaming is a couple of things. Powergaming is roleplaying without giving the other player a chance to react to the powergamer’s actions. An example is say Bob walks up to Steve and says “GIVE ME YOUR MONEY OR DIE!” Steve: “Uhm.. no..” Bob: -cuts off Steve’s head in one swift strike, then steals his money and runs. The other type of power-emoting is when your character does something extremely unrealistic. An example is: *Bob attempts to kill the whole group of twenty bandits* Even though he said ‘attempts’, he still would do something extremely overpowered if he were to say /roll 20 over it.

In-Character:

Character Name:

Daenir Merilinor

What Race are you? (You may only be Human, Orc, Elf or Dwarf!):

Elf

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race):

Dark Elf

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.):

Daenir was born only a mere two years after Aegis fell. His two parents were important people that were hated by many, so to protect their only son, Daenir, they sent him off on a boat, hoping that wherever he ends up will be the right place for him.

After a few hours of sailing, Daenir ended up landing on a shore outside of a small camp that was near present day Normandor. Two dark elven women walked over to the small boat to find Daenir staring at them with his red eyes. He immediately began to cry for food and attention so the two women gave him shelter for the night and fed him a warm meal. After the cold night, the two women brought Daenir to the cloud temple, where the monks would care for him.

Once he had lived with the monks for a year, Daenir was adopted by an old woman who was starting a multi-racial orphanage. He stayed there for a large amount of his childhood and, at the age of none, the conflict began. Daenir, as everyone soon found out, didn’t mix well with other races. He always seemed to pick a fight with one of the young uruk or be seen insulting a human. Due to his rudeness, he was beat up constantly by the bigger orcs that were in the Orphanage. Daenir soon realized that he either was going to be picked on, or he could learn to fight. So he did just that, every night he would sneak out of his bedroom to go into the forest nearby to attempt to train himself to be able to fight in hand-to-hand combat.

Daenir finally decided to escape the orphanage with one of his elvish friends, Urdir, at the age of fourteen, which at this time he had become decent at hand-to-hand combat after all of his training, due to all of the other races that Daenir that thought were abominations to Asulon. Once everyone else was fast asleep, Urdir and Daenir snuck out of the orphanage as quietly as they could and made a run for the boat that would take them to the cloud temple. Once they were almost there and they thought that they were home-free, a guard walked up and saw both of them. In their panic, they both dove into the water and attempted to swim away. The guard then yelled “COME BACK HERE NOW!!!!” After yelling a few more times, the guard sighed and murmured something about stubborn children.

Daenir and Urdir swam back to the shore near the boat once they realized that the guard had not followed them. They both panted and plopped down on the sand, grinning at each other. “We haven’t gotten away yet” said Urdir with a sigh. “We should keep moving before we’re found”, said Daenir. After Urdir nodded his agreement, they both got up and began a jog towards the boat, this time being more careful when nearing it. They both successfully got to the boat without being spotted as soon as the sun began to rise. They talked to the captain and he said “I am goin’ to set sail in about an hour.” Urdir and Daenir then both nodded and went below deck to wait.

Urdir and Daenir parted ways once they arrived at the cloud temple docks. Daenir then wandered around a bit and eventually ended up taking a carriage to Oren. Once there, he asked around for work and was told by some dwarves that they were hiring miners. Eager to get paid, Daenir quickly said yes to the job. He followed the dwarves to a carriage that took the group of them to a dwarven city. Once there, Daenir was given a room with a bed, and a few picks. Then, he was taken into the mine and began his training as a miner. Daenir first began to learn techniques on how to mine out stone efficiently. After a few months of trial and error, Daenir was able to get some coal out of each ore he found, making the dwarves happy that he actually was bringing in ores. He then continued to mine stone out, giving the more experienced miners the chance to mine out the iron and even gold without breaking any stone themselves, making Daenir worth more than dwarves had thought he would be.

Daenir continued to be a miner for many more years, until the age of twenty-five, making him more stubborn then he was as a small child and making him much stronger as well. Daenir decided to leave the mine and go elsewhere because he believed that it was time for a change. He became well aware of the economy and different prices for items. He ended up owning many different shops during this time in his life and made quite a bit of profits off of reselling and off of his old ores from being a miner. He was able to afford a lovely home in Alras and was happy with his situation.

At the age of fourty-five, Daenir sold his properties to Alras and shops as well, believing that he should become more of an elf, because even though he had matured enough to respect other races, he still didn’t like to be around them contantly. He packed up his bags and began to explore the elven lands, hoping to find more elves that he could possibly relate to. He came across a group of elves who were traders that were in need of someone who knew prices and was also a miner. Daerin thought to himself “Well, that sounds a whole lot like me..” so he accepted their offer and became their miner.

Daerin left the group of traders a few years later and continued his travels through elven lands. He got into less fights while around other elves but still never lost his hand-to-hand skills or his mining skills what so ever and is always ready to fight in defense.

He now continues to explore around elven lands at the age of fifty and still tries to make coin wherever he can whether it be through mining, trading, or even guarding people using his hand-to-hand skills.

What are your Character's ambitions?:

Daenir wants to become the best he can be at fighting hand-to-hand. He also would like to become a wealthy trader and better at mining then he currently is. The last ambition that my character has is to fully explore all elven lands and he also wants to be able to be around other races and enjoy himself instead of get angered by his past.

*Orc 2 is too slow to react and is punched in the jaw, fracturing the bone and causing some blood to drip from his mouth*

*All of the traders draw their weapons and run up to orc 2, slicing and hacking away at him*

Orc 2: I nub be flat! *attempts to run away but trips and falls, giving the traders a chance to end his life after a few more swipes*

Orc 1: Keep yer money twiggie! *runs away as fast as his legs will carry him*

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?:

Guard captain: Right now actually, let us go.

Captain: EVERYONE WHO’S COMING, COME TO THE GATES!

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: Aiden_AJK

How old are you?: I am thirteen years old. I was born on the third of August.

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: U.S.A. Central Time

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Indeed, being american, I speak English quite well.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I love to play video games as much as I love acting and roleplay. I have a good sense of humor and like to help people and do the right thing. On previous RP servers I've been on I've improved many people's roleplaying skills. I hope to get even more acting and roleplay time in on this server.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: As much as my plans allow. On weekends at least four hours and during the week at least one if I'm not busy. Possibly up to 20 hours a week maybe?

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: I know that roleplaying is when you take on the life of a character that you create. You act out the character's personality and what you believe their actions would be in countless situations. Basically it's acting in a play except there's no script to follow. It's extremely entertaining because you decide the character's actions, not a playwright.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: Well, I used to roleplay on RuneScape but in minecraft I've roleplayed on Skyrim: TAW, Lordran: TLS, Irilith Cradle of Life, and Assassin's Creep V1 and V2.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Metagaming is when a player uses out of character information in character. Some examples are seeing someone's nameplate through the walls then going directly to them and killing them or talking with them. Another example is you hearing that your friend's friend is a dwarf on skype and for whatever reason your character hates dwarves. Going to that particular player who may be disguised and killing him would be metagaming.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Powergaming is when players don't give the other player a chance to react to their actions and when they do things that are impossible to do in real life. Examples are: *Steve punches Bob so hard that he flys through the wall and then dies* or *Joe kills bob in one hit!*

What do you expect this server will be like?: An amazing roleplaying experience based off of Lord of the Rings with a minecraft twist on it. I also believe it will have tons of battles and fights to keep it entertaining.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: Skyrim TAW, It went down, Lordran The Lost Souls Barely anyone goes on and I didn't like the staff, Assassin's Creep V1 It went down, Assassin's Creep V2, I have not really left, my spoutcraft just won't work well.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I have read them and I understand them.

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules: Of course.

How did you hear about us?: Browsing the minecraft forums and people's signatures.

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?:

In-Character:

Character Name: Aiden Redhorn

What Race are you?: Human

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): N/A

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.): Aiden was born in a small cottage in a big forest miles from any civilization. He learned from his father how to effectively hunt for food and other survival skills. From his mother he learned how to cook food and how to use his surroundings to his advantage.

Day after day he hunted, his brown eyes honing in on the animals while he kept silent in the forest with his skills of stealth. He grew to depend on his smaller body to slip through openings in the woods that most others could not. He would keep to himself and stay quiet. The only time he ever opened up to the world was when he was in the woods, solitary.

When he turned fourteen years old, he began to go with his father to nearest town, almost twelve miles away. In this town he stealthily walked around using his hunting techniques to his advantage. He learned countless things while visiting towns near him. For one, you shouldn't trust most people. Another thing he learned was to stay away from the guards, especially the drunk ones. ((He was only 14 at this time, keep that in mind))

On his sixteenth birthday his father gave him an expensive bow from somewhere in a city far away. Aiden cherished this weapon and brought it with him everywhere. He crafted a full quiver of arrows to go along with it. He practiced with it every day on a small target that he attached to a tree along with shooting the animals that he ate for dinner. He grew to make clean, accurate shots consistently. He knew that Asulon could be a dangerous place so he needed to be able to defend himself.

Two years went by and Aiden grew tired of the same woods and the same routine that he had done for all of his life. He packed a bag of supplies along with his bow, his arrows, his father's beloved chestplate of solid iron, which had been given to him from his sobbing father as a good-bye gift, and his hunting knife. From his mother, Aiden acquired an iron cooking pot and a variety of food. With his final goodbyes, Aiden slipped on his leather hunting boots and set out. Aiden explored the landscape and visited many different towns, trading his animal skins for food, arrows, and other items that an adventurer might need.

During Aiden's travels, he encountered many situations where his stealth saved him. One of the situations was when he was nineteen years old. Aiden had been following the road for five days, moving on to the next village. He saw a group of bandits in a fight with some orcs. Sneaking up, he heard them arguing over weapons and supplies. Curiously he got in closer. He then heard someone scream "Die you fool!" then the fight broke out. One of the bandits was flung back into the very bush Aiden was hiding in. He quickly looked around for anyone else nearby then ran. From this he learned that he shouldn't poke around with fights unless it's necessary. Now, at the age of twenty, Aiden roams the land helping when he believes he should and doing what will better himself. He now plans to continue adventuring and exploring Asulon.

What is your Character's ambitions?: Aiden would like to explore the land and learn as much as he can. He would also enjoy being a travelling merchant, selling his hides and flipping different items for profit. On top of those ambitions, he would be happy to master the bow and master stealth but he knows that will takes many more years of practice.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): Aiden's favorite tool is his extravagant bow and his sharp arrows. This is his favorite tool because it allows him to hunt animals effectively and fight enemies without the risk of close quarter combat and getting stabbed in the back (Literally a knife going into his back, not the betrayal kind).

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? One of Aiden's most skilled talents besides marksmanship is stealth. He learned this skill from his father and became more adept at the practice through hunting animals. When hunting, he quickly learned that if he didn't become more stealthy, he wouldn't be able to provide himself with food which would cause him to starve.

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

I believe I have it correct now.

Other Information about your Character: Aiden can be very deceiving and is good with nature.

Warrior 1: *taking the impact of the arrow* Gah.... *keeps charging after he quickly pulls the arrow out*

*Aiden attempts to cut Warrior 1's sword hand*

*Because Warrior 1 is injured, Aiden is able to throw off his aim but because he is better with a bow, he doesn't cut off the hand*

Warrior 2: *Back on his feet* I'll kill you! *screamed more loudly then intended*

*Guard Captain hears the commotion and runs over with three other guards*

Guard Captain: Stop fighting all of you or you'll be jailed!

*Warrior 1 ignores the Guard along with Warrior 2 and attempts to land a blow down Aiden's chest*

*Aiden attempts to jump back but it hit by Warrior 1's sword in the leg*

Aiden: Gah! Help me guards!

*The guards begin to fire arrows at the warriors*

Warrior 2: Bill, let's get out of here!

Warrior 1: Agreed!

*Both run and two of the guards begin to chase them out of sight*

Guard Captain: *walking up to Aiden* That sure was brave of you to do that.. good work. How's your leg?

Aiden: *Standing up* It's fine I suppose.. I'll just wrap it with some cloth.. I must be off now.. Goodbye.

Guard Captain: Farewell

*Both walk in separate directions*

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?

Aiden: Hmm do you have any arrows?

Merchant: Let me see.. *walks into a small tent behind the stall*

*While the merchant is in there, Aiden spots a lone man in black robes sneaking over to the tent*

Merchant: *exiting the tent* I do indeed have thirty arrows! I'll sell them for 200 Minnas

Aiden: *Still watching the robed man* I'll take it... *hands the money to the merchant*

Aiden: If I were you, I'd look at your tent entrance and call the guards.. *Aiden takes the arrows from the man's hands*

Merchant: Oh I see... Can you stay here while I get them?

Aiden: I suppose..

Merchant: Excellent.. *rushes towards a guard tower*

Aiden: *sneaking behind the robed figure* Who are you?

Robed Figure: *startled* Oh-Me-I-I was-was ch-checking th-this t-tent to s-see if it's s-stable.

Aiden: *pretending to believe him* Oh I suppose that's okay then.. *walks back to the stall then hides and watches the man again*

*The robed figure goes into the tent*

Guard 1: Is this your tent?

Merchant: *whispering* Keep it down! Yes, it is.

Guard 1: *whispering as well* I see.. Let me have a look inside.

*Guard 1 goes into the tent and yowls in agony*

Aiden: Oh no.. *rushes over to the tent*

Merchant: Ahh! *yelling loudly* GUARDS! HELP! THEFT MURDER!!!

Aiden: I'll take care of this! *kicks over the supports that hold the tent up, causing it to fall making an outline of the Robed Man*

*Guards 2 and 3 approach*

Guard 2: What's going on!

Merchant: The man in the tent is a thief and a murderer! Get him!

*Robed Figure attempts to sneak away but the Guards rush over and cuff him*

Guard 3: Your coming with me.. You there *pointing to Aiden* Get that guard to a healer as fast as you can!

Aiden: Alright. *goes over to the wounded guard and picks him up*

*Aiden rushes the man to the nearest healer*

Healer: What is it?

Aiden: This guard needs help! He was stabbed in the chest!

Healer: *inspecting the guard* I see.. place him here then be off!

*Aiden places the guard on a small table then walks away from the Healer's home, evaluating the situation he was just in*

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?:

*Aiden walks into the hut and sees the items in the chest, two iron ingots and a fine golden sword*

*He quickly takes the items and searches the rest of the hut*

*When he sees nothing else, he quickly hurries to the nearest town*

Aiden: You there, where can I sell some ingots and a sword?

Man: The blacksmith is right over there.. he'll probably buy them

*Aiden heads to the blacksmith*

Blacksmith: 'Ello what can I do for you

Aiden: I'd like to sell these items *shows the sword and ingots*

Blacksmith: Ooooo a fine weapon. I'll pay you five hundred Minnas for it.

Aiden: *with hesitation* Fine, deal

*Both men give their items to the other person*

Aiden: Good day.

Blacksmith: You too.

*Aiden leaves, happy with the deal*

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?

Aiden: Hello there fine men! Do you by any chance have some food that I could purchase?

Trader 1: *In a rough voice* I have some pork that I could sell to you.

Aiden: Hmm how much pork do you have and what is the cost for half of what you have?

Trader 1: I have ten pieces of this fine meat.. I'll sell you five for a mere fifty Minnas

Aiden: *thinks for a moment* Hmm I'll take it *goes over to the trader and gives him the money*

*Trader 1 gives Aiden the pork*

Aiden: Thanks. Does anyone have some arrows or know how to repair armor?

Trader 2: I can sell you fifteen arrows for one-hundred Minnas.

Aiden: Deal. *Aiden and the trader exchange items*

Aiden: Mind if I stay here for a night?

Trader 4: You can stay, the more the merrier or something like that..

Aiden: Right.. *Lays down on a spare bedroll and gazes at the stars*

-Suddenly a big bear growls from the trees nearby-

Trader 3: Oh no! Not a bear..

Aiden: *drawing his bow* I'll get it! With some help of course..

Traders in unison: *drawing their weapons* Get the bear!

Aiden: *shooting an arrow towards the noises* Rah!

Bear: *Growling* Grrr Grrraahhh!! *charges into the clearing and knocks over a tent*

*Aiden attempts to shoot an arrow in the bear's neck while the traders slowly advance with their swords*

Bear: *Getting slashed on the foot and having the arrow hit it's shoulder* Grrrrrahhh!!!! *lunges for Trader 1*

Trader 1: Ahhhhhh!!! *throws his sword at the bear's head and runs out of the bear's range of clawing*

Bear: *getting hit by the sword right in the jaw* Rrrahh.. Guh.. *stumbles around slashing at anything that moves*

Trader 3: *attempting to cut the bear's head off* Help me get it's head!

Aiden: *attempting to hit the bear in the eye with an arrow* Agreed! Hit its head!

*Aiden along with traders 2, 3, and 4 attack the bear in unison aiming for it's big head*

Bear: *Falling to the ground with little energy left* Guh.. Ruh..

*Trader 3 finishes the bear with a blow to the chest*

Trader 4: *panting* That was interesting..

Aiden: Agreed now I'm going to get some rest.. *Aiden goes to his bedroll and falls asleep while traders 1 and 3 skin the bear and take out it's meat while throwing the rest of it out into the woods*

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?:

Aiden: *Approaching the guard leader* I'd like to sign up to help defeat these bandits.

Guard Leader: Hmm alright.. What are you good at?

Aiden: Well I'm very stealthy.. I could be a scout if you want. I'm also a good marksman.

Guard Leader: Hmm I'll have you scout ahead then report back to me when we go to attack. You shall also be mixed in with all of the other archers.

Aiden: Alright. *walks over to his room in the town's tavern and sleeps until daybreak*

-Morning time-

Aiden: *yawning* Gotta... Get.. Gear... On...

*Aiden drowsily puts on his apparel and then grabs his bow and walks towards the Guards and volunteers who look like they are about to depart*

Aiden: I am ready to scout ahead.

Guard leader: Wonderful. We shall begin marching twenty minutes after you depart.

Aiden: Alright. *Aiden trots out of the town and goes to the camp*

*When the camp is in sight, Aiden sneaks past the sentries and looks around for a tent with armor or weapons*

*Aiden eventually spots one and sneaks down into it*

*Once inside Aiden counts their supplies and takes note of its condition*

*Aiden then sneaks back out of the tent and trots back to where he believes the guards are probably located*

Aiden: *walking up to the leader* Here is my observations: *Aiden tells the leader all about the camp; where the easiest place to break in would be, the armory tent, how many archers there are, and other things that would help the Guard Leader achieve his goal of killing all of the bandits*

Guard Leader: I see. Thank you then... Go join the archers over there *points towards a group of five men with bows and quivers full of arrows*

*The attackers continue on marching for another half hour before they reach the camp*

Bandit Sentry: Guards! Attackers! Emergency at the front gate!!!!

*Bandit Archers rush up to the towers located around the camp and station themselves on its sturdy wooden walls*

Guard Leader: Archers! Fire! Infantry, Follow me!

*Aiden and the other archers begin to fire all of their arrows at any bandit foolish enough to pop up out of his hiding place*

*The Guard Leader leads ten men over to the weakest part of the wall and orders two of the men to put up ladders*

*Once the ladders are up the infantry pack themselves at the bottom of the ladders while others quickly climb up*

Bandit Sentry: Over there! Up the wa- *Bandit sentry stays out of hiding for too long and is hit by a stray arrow*

Aiden: Ouch.. What a horrible way to go.. *shoots another arrow in the direction of the gate*

*The infantry make it up onto the wall and begin to fight the bandits that come to meet them*

Infantry Guard 1: Die you outlaw! *attempts to decapitate Bandit 1*

Bandit 1: *ducking down to avoid the blow* Woah! Die you guard! *attempts to stab the guard in the stomach*

*Guard 1 is hit but his armor takes in most of the blow*

-The fight continues like this for another three hours. In this time Aiden and the other archers go up onto the wall and surround the remaining bandits, trapping them in the leader's tent-

Aiden: Come out or die outlaws!

*The bandit leader along with his wife and two other bandits come out of the tent with their hands on their heads*

Guard Leader: Well Well Well... Looks like I've caught you.

Bandit Leader: Bah just get on with it. Take us away.

Guard Leader: Right.. Guards! *Two guards go up and handcuff all four people* Everyone else, Take the good items from this camp for the guard barracks in town then burn this 'camp' to the ground!

Guards: Will do!

*Guards begin to burn the camp to the ground while Aiden walks over to the leader to accept his reward*

Aiden: Err I do get payed for this correct?

Guard Leader: What? Oh yes, of course. Here you are *hands Aiden five-hundred Minnas*

Aiden: *accepting the Minnas* Thank you! See you around I suppose *Aiden strolls back to the town to have a drink and share stories about the battle with everyone*

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: Aiden_AJK

How old are you?: 13

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: U.S.A central time.

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I love to play video games as much as I love acting and roleplay. I have a good sense of humor and like to help people and do the right thing. On previous RP servers I've been on I've improved many people's roleplaying skills. I hope to get even more acting and roleplay time in on this server.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: As much as my plans allow. On weekends at least four hours and during the week at least one if I'm not busy. Possibly up to 20 hours a week maybe?

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: I know that roleplaying is when you take on the life of a character that you create. You act out the character's personality and what you believe their actions would be in countless situations. Basically it's acting in a play except there's no script to follow. It's extremely entertaining because you decide the character's actions, not a playwright.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: Well, I used to roleplay on RuneScape but in minecraft I've roleplayed on Skyrim: TAW, Lordran: TLS, Irilith Cradle of Life, and Assassin's Creep V1 and V2.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Metagaming is when a player uses out of character information in character. Some examples are seeing someone's nameplate through the walls then going directly to them and killing them or talking with them. Another example is you hearing that your friend's friend is a dwarf on skype and for whatever reason your character hates dwarves. Going to that particular player who may be disguised and killing him would be metagaming.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Powergaming is when players don't give the other player a chance to react to their actions. Examples are: *Steve punches Bob so hard that he flys through the wall and then dies* or *Joe kills bob in one hit!*

What do you expect this server will be like?: An amazing roleplaying experience based off of Lord of the Rings with a minecraft twist on it. I also believe it will have tons of battles and fights to keep it entertaining.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: Skyrim TAW, It went down, Lordran The Lost Souls Barely anyone goes on and I didn't like the staff, Assassin's Creep V1 It went down, Assassin's Creep V2, I have not really left, my spoutcraft just won't work well.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I have read them and I understand them.

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules: Of course.

How did you hear about us?: Browsing the minecraft forums and people's signatures.

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?: Yes, I was denied for using an older format. Here it is: http://www.lordofthe...-whitelist-app/

http://www.lordofthe...app-new-format/

http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/51684-aiden-ajks-whitelist-app/

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.minecraft...-p-s-e-r-v-e-r/): I will post this one after I post it here.

In-Character:

Character Name: Aiden Redhorn

What Race are you?: Human

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): N/A

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.): Aiden was born in a small cottage in a big forest miles from any civilization. He learned from his father how to effectively hunt for food and other survival skills. From his mother he learned how to cook food and how to use his surroundings to his advantage.

Day after day he hunted, his brown eyes honing in on the animals while he kept silent in the forest with his skills of stealth. He grew to depend on his smaller body to slip through openings in the woods that most others could not. He would keep to himself and stay quiet. The only time he ever opened up to the world was when he was in the woods, solitary.

As he turned fourteen years old, he began to go with his father to nearest town, almost twelve miles away. In this town he stealthily walked around using his hunting techniques to his advantage. He learned countless things while visiting towns near him. For one, you shouldn't trust most people. Another thing he learned was to stay away from the guards, especially the drunk ones. ((He was only 14 at this time, keep that in mind))

On his sixteenth birthday his father gave him an expensive bow from somewhere in a city far away. Aiden cherished this weapon and brought it with him everywhere. He crafted a full quiver of arrows to go along with it. He practiced with it every day on a small target that he attached to a tree along with shooting the animals that he ate for dinner. He grew to make clean, accurate shots consistently. He knew that Asulon could be a dangerous place so he needed to be able to defend himself.

Two years went by and Aiden grew tired of the same woods and the same routine that he had done for all of his life. He packed a bag of supplies along with his bow, his arrows, his father's beloved chestplate of solid iron, which had been given to him from his sobbing father as a good-bye gift, and his hunting knife. From his mother, Aiden acquired an iron cooking pot and a variety of food. With his final goodbyes, Aiden slipped on his leather hunting boots and set out. Aiden explored the landscape and visited many different towns, trading his animal skins for food, arrows, and other items that an adventurer might need.

During Aiden's travels, he encountered many situations where his stealth saved him. One of the situations was when he was nineteen years old. Aiden had been following the road for five days, moving on to the next village. He saw a group of bandits in a fight with some orcs. Sneaking up, he heard them arguing over weapons and supplies. Curiously he got in closer. He then heard someone scream "Die you fool!" then the fight broke out. One of the bandits was flung back into the very bush Aiden was hiding in. He quickly looked around for anyone else nearby then ran. From this he learned that he shouldn't poke around with fights unless it's necessary. Now, at the age of twenty, Aiden roams the land helping when he believes he should and doing what will better himself. He now plans to continue adventuring and exploring Asulon.

What is your Character's ambitions?: Aiden would like to explore the land and learn as much as he can. Someday, he wants to become a thief (If I get a villain app accepted I will probably do this) but until then he also has the ambition of being a good travelling merchant.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): His Bow.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Stealth

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

Other Information about your Character: Aiden can be very deceiving and is good with nature.
