Time-Zone/Country of Residence: I come from Victoria, Australia Eastern Standard Time.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I have a feeling that I’m going to love this server so probably around 20+ hours a week.
What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Roleplaying to me is like acting, where you become the character you create. You can choose to be good or bad, to help the innocent or prey on their weakness. It is to become a different person and speak as they should speak and do as they would do.
What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: My favourite games to play are roleplay for example: Skyrim which I spent well over one hundred hours playing as a High Elf who helped the innocent and destroyed the evil and power hungry. I haven’t actually played WOW but I did grow up playing Warcraft and have always wanted to play WOW but I don’t think my laptop can handle it :) I also played Diablo while growing up too.
In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-Gaming is when the player uses knowledge that their character does not yet have to give themselves an advantage in the game.
In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Power-Gaming is when the player attempts to maximise their character in the quickest way possible completely ignoring the role they are supposed to play.
What do you expect this server will be like?: I think it will be really fun. What I have read and seen of it so far tells me that there are different races and cities that you can choose to be a part of and so you are in a kind of alliance helping and protecting your people. It is definitely my kind of server.
What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I haven’t been a part of any servers before mostly because I have never found one that I really liked and I only started playing Minecraft at the end of last year and I wanted to focus on survival mode and try out some different mods before I played with other people.

Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and her life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): Arya Is a beautiful young Elven warrior of 19 years. She is tall for a Wood Elf; standing at 5.8 with tan skin, unusual jet black hair and piercing green eyes that brighten or darken with her mood. She wears traveller clothing to help blend into her forest surrounding and warn leather boots for comfort and agility. Arya is considered a great huntress because of her stealth and keen eye making her an incredibly skilful archer. She learnt her skills growing up from her father as they would hunt and gather in the forest to provide for their ever hungry family of five, all the while he would encourage her to learn and practice all that she could because one day she would have to survive this world without her father’s help.
At the age of 14 a freak fire spread through Arya’s small tree village in The Wilds, only a handful were killed; one of them her father. The family, grief stricken fell hungry quickly and so Arya, as their only provider was forced to put aside her heart break to once again feed the family. Her other siblings were still too young to venture past the protection of the village leaving Arya to enter the dangerous Wilderness alone. She learnt quickly to scale nearby trees to avoid the dangers of the woods below because she no longer had her father to watch her back. Her feet tread even lighter than before and she became a shadow amongst the trees. Her keen eye became keener and she was able to pierce the eye of every kill she made with her arrows so as not to devalue the meat that she could trade in and around the village for other necessities the family needed.
When her younger brother Delgan turned 11 she took him into the forest as her father had with her to teach him how to survive. Although he did not catch on the way Arya had, he was still able enough to follow in her footsteps and help to feed the family. She passed on her knowledge of the plants that could feed you or kill you and how to tell the difference. She taught him to set traps to catch food over night and to find eggs in nests while scaling the trees. And most important; she taught him how to use the bow and arrow to hunt for meat and protect against the monsters of the night.
When she turned 19 and Delgan was capable of feeding the family alone; she left the small tree village behind to start her adventures in the world as her and her father had always dreamed of. She wants so badly to explore Malinor the nation of her ancestors; especially the capitol city of Normander to bask in the glory of the Elven Nobles that reside there. Since her Fathers passing it is a rare occasion to catch a smile or a laugh on Arya’s lips as she has become very guarded, but she has a kinder heart than any you have ever met and is a very passionate person.
What is your Character's ambitions?: To travel to Malinor and visit the cities of her ancestors and see things that she could only ever dream of and to help people along the way. She also wishes to build a home of her own.
What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): The Bow and Arrow because it is her first choice when hunting.
What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Definitely Archery or her stealth through the forrest.
A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format):
Other Information about your Character: Arya is a survivor. She does not enjoy killing (even when hunting for food she only ever killed what she truly needed) but she will stand and fight if that’s what’s best for her family and friends.
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? She would stop about ten metres away from the group and ask the men calmly to “Leave the boy be”. If they refuse and ignore her she would ask again. After being refused twice she would not ask again. Arya would ready her bow and draw an arrow shooting the first man in the neck: dropping him instantly. Before the second man could even flinch she would have moved behind him with her sword pressed to his throat and she would tell him:”Pick up your friend and start walking”
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? “Hail fine Sir, I am wishing to replenish my supplies and am wondering what fares you may have for me?”
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?: She would take a couple of iron bars but the sword looks to be the prize of its owner so she would leave it be.
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? “Hail fine Tradesmen, please would you allow me to bunk by your fire tonight. I have lost my bearings and my stomach has been hollow for days?”
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?: She would offer her assistance to the town that gave her shelter and food. Her archery skills would definitely be of help to these people especially if she scaled the trees: she could take out many bandits from that height.
Thank you for considering my application. :)
