aron.

*sees the poster, leaves a small note pinned to it* I have no bird at the moment, but I am interested in this work. Drop by Solace, to see examples of my work, and we can sort out the details.

*A small note is hung on the wall before you*

Making a farm, but don't have the livestock to get started? I am an experienced farmer, and trapper. If you supply me with the string, i can make traps, and catch any animal you choose. I'll even do it for free. Send a bird to me, Aron, should you require such services ((aidanhd500))

Danny, why did you change your forum avatar. I enjoyed watching the two fellows looking at each other

Updated! Added more pictures and expanded a few answers

Thank you to all my friends, for supporting me. It means a lot :)

What is your favorite building style?: I enjoy creating medieval buildings, and towns. The offer a nice old fashioned feel, without getting too much into steampunk. I also, very much enjoy basing creations of buildings i see in real life, around my own city, and over the internet.

What are some of your most treasured builds? (screenshots if possible):

One of my most cherished builds is in the spoiler below, titled solace church. You can also find pictures here: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/68361-new-solace-church/page__p__542788#entry542788

This is the spawn i helped build on a minecraft server:

This is a fort i built a year ago.

Please provide screenshots of any medieval builds strictly you have built and a description of each:

Solace church

Large cathedral (this is a bigger version of Solace church. It was much too big to implement practically)

Salvus

The gazebo and gardens, along with some houses in this picture were made by me. (not the inns)

Solace arena

Hightower library

All of the pictures above have been built in the server.

Winter city housingThis is a small town i made up in a couple hours. It's a small winter town. Artorus Elendil is hiring me to implement some of them in game.

As a builder, what makes you unique and stand out from the crowd?: Standing out is hard to do with such an abundance of builders. I think the best i can do to stand out is give my constant willingness to try new things, and learn from those who are more experienced. I think working on the build team will offer up new friends, mentors, and ideas. Everyone has the potential to become better as they continue to work, and i really think i can grow as a builder, if given a spot on this team.

How capable are you of building with the least amount of preparation as possible? If I were to ask you to construct the remains of an ancient settlement, would you be able to handle it on the spot without being babysat? (there is no right or wrong answer): To be honest, without anything to work off of, i would not be able to do so with lightning speed. If given time, I could think something up to start off of. Once i have an idea of what it is that i am trying to build, and where i am trying to go with it, building becomes fun, and rather quick.

Additional details: I plan on adding more pictures of things i have already built in and around Solace, as soon as the server is back up. I also plan on applying for [actor], eventually. Thanks for reviewing my application.

*Aron sees the note listed by his friends, and thinks to himself*

"I guess I'll give them a design or two"

*aron quickly draws up what looks like a house, with a stickman standing out front waving. He then pins it to the board*

"That ought ta' do!"

*signs his name below his drawing*

*Aron walks past and sees the young dwarf's request*

Aye, I can cook your food. Tell you master I am fit for the job ((80 cooking))

((send me a bird. aidanhd500))

*a bulletin is posted in churches and temples across the land*

Hail. I need a priest capable of marrying me, Aron, and my fiance, Wocket. I will pay for this service, if needed

Artie takes up his place next to his father playing with whatever random object Aron gave him this time, looking up at everyone who comes in with a big grin.

(( Is that a shot at my babysitting skills? ;P))

((did you pick that skin))

(( The more skins, the marrier. I will still take in any skins))

Baronvo may be against Salvus' participation. But, if he will let me, i would like to donate Solace's arena for all fencing, and battle events. All up to baronvo, really. His kingdom

Note to self... "do something nice for queen Kyral"

*a bulletin is posted up, in a major city* I am seeknig a tailor, to make me some new clothes. I will pay well if i like it. Post a note back up, if ya' wish to inquire. (( some fancier clothes. Kind of like noble clothes, but not over done. I attached my skin file, for any takers))

*You notice a bulletin* Plenty of houses for sale in Salvus, a kingdom of the holy oren empire. A market city, with plenty of shops to buy, and buy from. Short walk from the Cloud temple, and horses leading to other locations, such as Arethor, and Ildon. Send a bird to Mayor_Aron ((aidanhd500) for information.

(( i can post pictures, if anyone is too lazy to come check it out))

(( how would one rply, go about curing this plague?))

*you see a bulletin posted on a bord*

"Hail, have you noticed a strange virus sweeping its way through the lands? It has been affecting, plants, animals and all walks of life! There are few reported cases of humans and other races contracting this sickness as well. If you have any information on where it's coming from, or anything that may help to solve what's behind this, you are urged to contact me, Aron ((aidanhd500)). Stay safe, wash your hands a' plenty, and cover yer mouth when coughing."

*You notice an example of a contaminated flower pinned to the note*

Roleplaying with jester is always a blast, and adding him to the event team will further his limits to make the server a positive experience. Great rp'er, so i'll give him a +1

Aron has come to peace with the untimely death of Kali. Though He never knew her in health, he vows he will help Lancel raise Artorus, and will do anything he can to make sure Artorus grows up to become the best man he can be.

*Aron tickles baby Arty's* feet "Your mom would be happy to know she gave birth to such a happy baby"

"Just wish she didn't give you the middle name of that lion" *Aron shakes his head* "Man, i hate that Lion!"

Safe to say the battle's off? anyone?

Waita go vaq! Really appreciate how much work you put in for our better enjoyment

Two elven weeks ago, you were planning to burn Arethor to the ground. Now you are peaceful and loving? revolutions (expecially those with the means to do damage) Don't just die down over night, and succumb to the empire they hated. Icly, we have every reason to be worried of your existence! The scout reports only add to this ((i myself have visited sabbett icly)). When it comes to ooc, you have some member walking around, telling everyone their intentions. So you claim to have no intention of revolting? Both Ic and OOC we have every reason to fight you guys. You look scary :c

EDIT: ((don't kill doone, He's in Asulons greatest boy band D:))

What a lovely arena for this event to take place in! Though, who ever designed it, was not in his right mind, and forgot to make himself a V.I.P seat...

sounds great

@Domainoft - I'd like to point out his not-very-small signature saying "Like to see me on the FM team? Think I'm helpful? Click here to see my Forum Mod App!" It is definitely dominant. If the people who judged these applications, thought that support was necessary, then they would have something, somewhere, letting applicants know, to let their friends know, so that the friends can come +1 them.

@Hylian - The force is implied, because you can see if someone read your message and at what time. You may not be yelling it, but it is there. If someone would just read the message, and leave it alone, it would make you feel not-so-good, and one day, "So why didn't you +1 my FM app?" I just isn't good.

@Everything/Everyone - Everyone has their own opinion, but mine is, if you DESERVE a position enough, someone will either spread the word, or see your application and think "HELL YES!", and at that point, and only then, should you be RIGHTFULLY supported. Some/All people are not coming here and supporting you, because they think you'd be amazing, they are doing it because "Whyy notttt, He sent me a message and all I have to do is type '+1'" and then does the support REALLY mean something? No, it is just a +1. Like I said, if the checker of this application thought support was HIGHLY needed to get the position, he/she would let the applicants know. I am not saying (once again) that you may not deserve this position, I am only saying, in my opinion, and possibly other's, it looks bad that you have to ask for support, OR it is just bad to ask for support. I am 9/10 going to stop posting on this application, to avoid a flame war, but I wanted to let you know how I felt about everything, and bring the PMs to the checker's attention. I am not +1ing or -1ing either. Good luck!

i agree with him. PMing everyone comes off as needy

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: i play many rpg games such as skyrim and i very much enjoy diving into the character and acting as if were them. i am also in improv so that will provide a fair boost to my roleplaying abilities.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:It is stepping out of the boundaries within that are set within the game, and applying outside information to your character's speech or actions. and example would be calling someone "peter" when there is no indication in-game that this is his name

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Power-gaming in roleplaying is different from power-gaming in rpgs. in roleplaying acting upon a player that gives him no chance to defend himself is power-gaming. Example: *Joey Swings sword and kills carey*

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): None

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.): Aron had an easy upbringing. many of the children around him fell victim to bandit attacks and became orphans but he had to happy, loving parents, marry and willy. His father, willy, was a renowned poet and would always tell Aron of great adventures in the cities he would go to. Arethor, Solace, Normandor, "they are all such vast cities filled with the strong warriors and people of Asulon. Where most kids would see adventure of a vast, greater world Willy saw oddity, and would always ask questions such as "doesn't it get crowded" and "if there were to be a fire, what would the people do then? hmmm?". Aron was a paranoid little boy, this can mostly be traced to his mother, loving and caring as she was, she would not let Aron anywhere near fire or anything that can burn. This as you can imagine, was a rough part of Aron\s upbringing, but he loved his mother all the same. Towards Aron's mid teens he became interested in construction and architecture. This was a happy time in Aron's life, but every sunny sky has a dark cloud, and for the Wizenhoff's, this was the mental state of Willy.

Months had gone by and Willy had started acting from strange, to done right crazy. towards the end days Marry would try and talk with him on many occasions, but Willy was to far gone. A husband was lost. A father was lost. One year went by, catering for Willy in his mental state, he couldn't remember Marry, or Aron. Marry let Aron go out far less often during that time and treated him worse than a baby. The financial problems of the family were grave and the prime location of their home, in the farmlands south-west of the cloud temple were unable to yield any crops. The day came where Aron had to go make a life for himself, the support of his mother would not last him another year, so at the age of 19, Aron began preparations to leave within a fortnight. The day Aron was leaving his father sickness became to much, Willy, was about to die.

Marry rushed quickly to the nearest herbalist to get medicine for here quickly fading husband. Once she left Aron sat down and explained what he is going to do. "Father, i hope some part of you can hear and take pride in your only son. i Plan to head for the wilderness, just east of the cloud temple , I have learned the ways of woodcutting, and I am sure i can find someone to teach me how to blacksmith and mine. But leaving my mother at a time like this would not be fair of me. My own life will have to be put on standby to take care of mo-" Willy grabbed his only son by the shirt and said, with his final breath "If you stay here, you will grow crazy, like me, and paranoid like your mother. Find a friend to travel with, for protection. you are no swordsman but i can tell you that you are an exceptional kid, and can become an amazing architect if you set out to do so. I love you, son"

Aron leaped out the door, and ran, with tears filling his eyes, towards the cloud temple, to find a companion, to travel with.

What is your Character's ambitions?: To build a magnificent house and learn how to blacksmith

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): A axe, it is the only tool he can use without cutting off any of his body parts

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Kindness and creativity

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format, if you do not know how to acquire one, click here: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/51343-how-to-obtain-your-skin-screenshot/): http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/2434/20120529102139.png

Other Information about your Character: He is very clumsy, he just doesn't know because he has never had to do any hard labor.

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? Woah! what can i do? i am unarmed and have no fighting skill what so ever. I need to find help, someone else can stop them. He then sprints to Aegis keep to find help from any near by warriors. after convincing a warrior and returning they find the halfling on the ground, beaten and helpless. Aron helped him up and walked him to his home. The halflings name was jesse, and his mom asked Aron if he wanted to stay the night. Aron accepted this offer and got a good nights rest.

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? "Yes, hello. I don't suppose you have any books on the art of blacksmithing, do you?" "let me just see what I got here, nope, hmmmm, *under breath* art of woodcutting, nope. umm, crafting, for the crafty crafter, nope. erm, OH! here we are, tyrone smith's guide to blacksmithing, that will be 50 minas" "WOAH! i don't have anywhere near that amount of money. I will be back soon with the minas to buy that book." "okay"

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?:

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? "Oh praise the lord, I am starving and this is the first camp i have seen in days. Do you have any food?" says Aron, overwhelmed with joy. "we have some bread on the table, next to the fire" said the man "THE FIRE!!!!! PUT IT OUT, YOU WILL BURN DOWN THE ENTIRE CAMP!" "Woah! calm down buddy, it's under control" "unless it's in a lantern i hardly believe it's under control" the paranoia from Arons childhood was returning, and his fear of fire was the top on the list of fears. While at a safe distance from the fire the man, Kano, and Aron exchanged stories and Kano was able to calm Aron enough to sleep in the same area as a fire.

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?: "I can offer you my support, but not as a warrior. i am unfit for battle and would serve as good out there as a cooked porkchop. is there any other way i can assist?" "no, me and my men can go down and do it ourselves". Aron had a rough time sleeping that night, then recalled to his childhood that for some reason bandits never attacked him, they only attacked parents of kids who will grow up to be exceptional warriors, with vendetta's. (hope someone else got that reference)
