Alright. If you can, that would be good.

Accepted. I'll send you the skin I had in mind once PMC is up. Unless you had one in mind?

Accepted! Do you have a skin in mind that you want to use?

I edited the post, we are now looking for someone to play Zoe, and someone to play her twin brother, Tobias. Please add who your applying for to your app, as well.

Yes, as soon as planet minecraft comes back up <.>

Edited.

(EDIT: Now looking for a person to play Zoe's twin, Tobias. Connor's eyes open to the crying of his newborn daughter, Zoe. "It's your turn.." Dash says quietly, rolling over onto her side. Connor rubs the sleep from his eyes, and swings his legs over the side of the bed, standing up, and heading towards the child's bed on the other side of the room. As he approaches, the crying grows louder. He kneels down beside the bed, and picks up his daughter, holding her in his arms. He slowly starts to rock her back and forth, and the crying slowly subsides, to be replaced by a silent giggling. Connor smiles back at her, leaning back against the bed. He yawns loudly and is about to close his eyes, when he is again assaulted by a infants crying. He looks down at Zoe, and seeing that she's asleep, looks up at the bed across from hers, where her twin brother Tobias. Connor carefully sets Zoe back in her bed, and crawls over to Tobias. He picks up Tobias, and sits on the edge of his small bed, rocking him back and forth. After a short while, Tobias calms down, and stares up at Connor. He smiles at Connor, and Connor smiles back. Connor leans back against the wall, slowly closes his eyes, and drifts off to sleep. ((OOC)) I am looking for someone to play my newborn daughter, Zoe, and her twin, Tobias. Information -Mother- Dash (Jimacat) -Father- Connor Larowin (Me) -Both parents are Human, so it would make sense if the child is human too -your father is the mayor of Mireton, as well as a Squire and a Bannerman -your mother is a footwoman to House Tarus Zoe's Traits -Zoe is kind and caring like both of her parents -is adventurous like her mother, so she may often hurt herself on her "adventures" -she is very smart like both of her parents Tobias's Traits -Tobias is kind and caring like both of his parents -when he gets older, he will be hard working -where his sister is adventurous, Tobias is cautious, and will learn to think before he acts If you would like to play the character of my daughter, just fill out this little application so I know a bit about you. Application 1. Have you ever role played a child before? 2. How often will you be able to play as this character? 3. What timezone are you in? 4. Which character are you applying for? If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Connor reads the letter which is passed on to him by one of the recruits, and nods to himself. He sits down at the table in the barracks, and writes a response to the new applicant. "Change, If ye wish to join House Tarus, meet with me in Indelwood as soon as ye can. We will get everything organized there."

Lieutenant Connor climbs out of the mineshaft, a sack of minerals over his back. He wipes a bead of sweat off of his forehead, and is confronted by a recruit. "Lieutenant, since Lord Ezekiel and Captain Amfionas are busy on business, I was told to give these to you." The recruit hands him several notes, salutes, and walks off. Connor sets down he bag of minerals, and reads over each note. He shoves the notes into his pocket, and heads into the barracks, where he writes a response to each new applicant. He finishes the notes, and ties them to separate ravens, and sends them off. ((I'll PM each one of you on the forums))

I like the Hotbar idea.

Connor reads over the two notes, and writes two responses, one for each applicant. They read, "I'd be glad to meet with you sometime soon. I'll send you a bird with details on the meeting."

Connor passes through the cities, checking the notice boards for responses. He is about to give up, when he finally notices one. He quickly reads it over, and smiles to himself. "Perfect. Now, just to send this man a bird." He walks to a nearby rookery, scribles a quick note, which reads "Hello, Evel. If you can, meet with me in Arethor or Mireton, and we can discuss this in person. -Connor"

Several notices are posted at the Cloud Temple, Arethor, and other small and large towns. They read; Hail, People of Oren! Mireton is in need of a skilled farmer or two, to manage the farms that shall be going up soon. If you are interested in the position, please leave another notice underneath this one. [[40 Farming needed, but also accepting 20 Farming]] At the bottom, it is signed by Connor Larowin, the Mayor of Mireton.

((Ha, I suppose that might help a bit. its TaylorStriffe We'll talk tomorrow))

Connor see's this note, and is interested immediatly. He whips out a small piece of parchment and a quill, and writes his response Dear Ser, I may be Interested in purchasing your armour. I would like to inspect it in person. You may choose the meeting place. Send a bird to me in Mireton. Signed, Connor Larowin Connor pins the note to the board, and walks away, deeper into Arethor

*Connor pulls a flyer down and reads it, thinking to himself. Ah, perfect! I could use a diamond right now. ((IGN TaylorStriffe))

*A bird flys off from Mireton, with a message reading; Hello. I'm interested in one diamond. Send me a bird, and we'll figure out a place to meet. Connor (IGN TaylorStriffe)

*Connor walks past the notice board in Glenwood, when a note catches his eye. He examines it closely* I have brown hair, as well as a good memory. Could I possibly...? *Connor ponders this* Perhaps it would be best to find out. *Connor leaves Glenwood, heading towards Arethor.

A flyer hits Connor square in the face, as he walks down a quiet path. 'Just my luck' he thinks to himself, as he ply's the flyer from his face. As he is about to toss it away, a insignia at the bottom catches his eye. He reads the flyer thoroughly, and thinks to himself another house looking for soliders. Hm, maybe. He stuffs the flyer in his pocket, and stalks off.

Heh, that would make sense, i suppose.

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? Answer: Connor walked down the path, the wind caressing his face, and weaving its way through his hair. The scenery along the path was beautiful,as was the day. His eye's wonder to the end of the road, where he sees an young halfling being harrased by two men, both of them armed. He stopped momentarily, wondering what to do, when a thought popped into his brain. He walked towards the two men, puffing up his chest, and sticking a hand into his cloak. When he reached the two men, he spoke loudly; "Just what do you think you two are doing?" The two men turned around to look at him, and he realized they were incredibly ugly. "What do you want? Can't you see we're busy?" One of them asked. "I want you to leave that halfling alone." Connor responded. One of the men smirked at his friend, and they turned towards him. "Oh do you now? Well, I'm sure we could do that for someone as nice as you." With the man putting emphasis on the 'nice', the two men lunged towards him, showering him with fists and knees. The beating lasted for several minutes, until the two men started to become bored. "C'mon, this ain't no fun anymore. Let's get outta here." With that, the two men left, leaving Connor to lick his wounds. The halfling ran over to Connor, helping to him feet. "Are you alright?" The halfling asked, concerned. "Yea, I'm fine," Connor grimaced as he spoke. "How about you? Are you okay?" The halfling nodded. "That was very brave of you to stand up for me." "It's what any decent man would have done. Don't mention it." Connor responded. "You have my deepest gratitudes. If we ever meet again, do not hesitate to ask for help." And with that, the halfling headed down the path into the wilderness. 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?: Answer: Connor crashed through the forest, breaking twigs and branches and climbing over large rocks, making his way through the dense pine forest. At the top of the hill in front of him, a small shack was visible. He made his way up the hill, faster now, until he reached the entrance to the shack. He knocked on the door, and when no one answered, push it open. A thin film of dust covered the floor, and the table. He stepped inside, closing the door behind him, which blocked off the wind. He shuffled through the shack, and stopped in front of a chest. He opened it, and was surprised to see it held a couple of iron bars, and a golden sword. He reached forward and felt the edge of the sword; it wasn't very sharp, but the iron bars could be useful. He was about to take them, when he thought of something; 'What if this was my shack, and I came back and my iron was gone? I probably wouldn't be very happy.' Slightly saddened, Connor closed the chest,exited the shack, and continued on his way. 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?: Answer: Connor strode through the town, following the ever growing crowd to the front gates. In front of the gates stood a armoured man, a sword at his side, and several more knights behind him. He was saying something about a large group of bandits down the road, and asking for any volunteers. Connor looked down at himself. He had no weapons or armour. 'But if I help them and they succeed, they will give me a reward. I could use some minas to make my way to the next town.' Connor thought to himself. He stepped forward, weaving his way through the crowd, and stepped before the speaker. "I would be honoured to have the chance to protect this town, my Lord." The speakers face, which at first was dull, lit up at the sight of his first volunteer. "I am glad to hear it, son. When we are ready to go, you shall be given some armour and a weapon of your choice." Connor nodded, and stepped behind the man, as he continued to try, and fail, to get more men to volunteer. Just as the crowd was starting to disperse, Connor spoke up. "Is this really what this town is made of? A bunch of cravens?" That caught peoples attention. " Your given the chance to defend your town, your family, your children, and you choose to walk away?" Some of the people looked down at there feet in shame, while others narrowed there eyebrows. "You should be honoured. You have the chance to defend your town, and show those bandits what you are truly made of. You can either help us, and get rid of the bandits, or be a craven, and let the bandits walk all over you." He stopped speaking momentarily, letting the words seep in. Finally, he spoke up again. "So who's with me?" At first, the crowd just stared. Then, one after another, men started stepping forward, volunteering to protect there town. The leader of the knights turned to him, his face lit up. "Thank you greatly, young man. When we destroy those bandits, you can have what ever it is you need, as long as it is within reason." Thank you for reading my application. If ANYTHING needs to be fixed, please let me know. I cannot wait until I can start roleplaying!

Can't you see we're busy?" One of them asked. "I can see. I'm going to have to ask you to stop, before I arrest you for attempted theft." The two men laughed, and drew there swords, stepping towards him, the tips of the blades pointing towards him. "Oh yea? You can't take us both on." Connor paused momentarily, and responded to them in his most persuasive accent. "Maybe not, but a squadron of Temple guards are more than enough to take you two down. When I give them the signal, my archers will shoot you where you stand." The two men looked at each other as frightened, Connor raised his fingers to his mouth, about to whistle. "Your lying!" One of them accused, but he didn't seem to believe him self. "Want to test that theory?" Connor sucked in, and was about to whistle, when the two men threw there swords to the ground, and ran away down the path. Connor smirked, and walked towards the small halfling.

They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond? Answer: Connor walked down the path, the wind caressing his face, and weaving its way through his hair. The scenery along the path was beautiful,as was the day. His eye's wonder to the end of the road, where he sees an young halfling being harrased by two men, both of them armed. He stopped momentarily, wondering what to do, when a thought popped into his brain. He walked towards the two men, puffing up his chest, and sticking a hand into his cloak. When he reached the two men, he spoke loudly; "Just what do you think you two are doing?" The two men turned around to look at him, and he realized they were incredibly ugly. "What do you want? Can't you see we're busy?" One of them asked. "I can see. I'm going to have to ask you to stop, before I arrest you for attempted theft." The two men laughed, and drew there swords, stepping towards him, the tips of the blades pointing towards him. "Oh yea? You can't take us both on." Connor paused momentarily, and responded to them in his most persuasive accent. "Maybe not, but a squadron of Temple guards are more than enough to take you two down. When I give them the signal, my archers will shoot you where you stand." The two men looked at each other as frightened, Connor raised his fingers to his mouth, about to whistle. "Your lying!" One of them accused, but he didn't seem to believe him self. "Want to test that theory?" Connor sucked in, and was about to whistle, when the two men threw there swords to the ground, and ran away down the path. Connor smirked, and walked towards the small halfling. 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?: Answer: Connor crashed through the forest, breaking twigs and branches and climbing over large rocks, making his way through the dense pine forest. At the top of the hill in front of him, a small shack was visible. He made his way up the hill, faster now, until he reached the entrance to the shack. He knocked on the door, and when no one answered, push it open. A thin film of dust covered the floor, and the table. He stepped inside, closing the door behind him, which blocked off the wind. He shuffled through the shack, and stopped in front of a chest. He opened it, and was surprised to see it held a couple of iron bars, and a golden sword. He reached forward and felt the edge of the sword; it wasn't very sharp, but the iron bars could be useful. He was about to take them, when he thought of something; 'What if this was my shack, and I came back and my iron was gone? I probably wouldn't be very happy.' Slightly saddened, Connor closed the chest,exited the shack, and continued on his way. 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?: Answer: Connor strode through the town, following the ever growing crowd to the front gates. In front of the gates stood a armoured man, a sword at his side, and several more knights behind him. He was saying something about a large group of bandits down the road, and asking for any volunteers. Connor looked down at himself. He had no weapons or armour. 'But if I help them and they succeed, they will give me a reward. I could use some minas to make my way to the next town.' Connor thought to himself. He stepped forward, weaving his way through the crowd, and stepped before the speaker. "I would be honoured to have the chance to protect this town, my Lord." The speakers face, which at first was dull, lit up at the sight of his first volunteer. "I am glad to hear it, son. When we are ready to go, you shall be given some armour and a weapon of your choice." Connor nodded, and stepped behind the man, as he continued to try, and fail, to get more men to volunteer. Just as the crowd was starting to disperse, Connor spoke up. "Is this really what this town is made of? A bunch of cravens?" That caught peoples attention. " Your given the chance to defend your town, your family, your children, and you choose to walk away?" Some of the people looked down at there feet in shame, while others narrowed there eyebrows. "You should be honoured. You have the chance to defend your town, and show those bandits what you are truly made of. You can either help us, and get rid of the bandits, or be a craven, and let the bandits walk all over you." He stopped speaking momentarily, letting the words seep in. Finally, he spoke up again. "So who's with me?" At first, the crowd just stared. Then, one after another, men started stepping forward, volunteering to protect there town. The leader of the knights turned to him, his face lit up. "Thank you greatly, young man. When we destroy those bandits, you can have what ever it is you need, as long as it is within reason." Thank you for reading my application. If ANYTHING needs to be fixed, please let me know. I cannot wait until I can start roleplaying!
