Definitions
In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is: Role-playing is to take up the life of another, acting as they would under circumstances that may occur within their life. You must act according to their emotions, background, personality, physical abilities and mental abilities.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is: I had to search up to find this. I believe meta-gaming is taking information learnt outside of character and using it within character to your character's advantage.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:Also had to search for this one. Power-emoting is acting in ways that your character could not physically or mentally act. It is also forcing other players to role-play in a manner not comfortable to them.
In-Character Details
Character Name: My character's name will be Will Evaer.
Character Race: Will shall be a Hobbit/Halfling.
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:
Ah, Will. Will is now thirty-five and enjoying life. His hair is slightly long and brown, he isn't too tall, nor to short. Ain't too skinny, nor too fat, either. He is just Will. Plain old Will. His full name is actually William Evaer, though none know him as that. To them he is also, just Will. He has a short beard, and long bushy eyebrows.
Will can hold his emotions intact fairly easily and doesn't ever seem to be sad. He is a happy fellow. Yes, that is what he is. Happy. He loves a good laugh, slapping his knee and bending over, chuckling madly. Sometimes his laugh makes others laugh. It is quite spectacular. Now Will, he may be a fun-to-be-around halfling but... he also enjoys his quiet time. He can usually be found outside his house, in his front garden, smoking his pipe.
What are your characters ambitions?: To live life to it's fullest potential.
Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here:Well, I asked my friend and he said he'd help me out. He made a skin based on how I described Will and created a render using a program called, Novaskin, I believe. Here is the render, oh and I cannot put the skin on just yet as my account is yet to be made premium.
Is there anything else you would like to say about your character? He will speak like this,
"'Ey there lad, 'ow ye been?"
"Oh, t'as good. Well, see'ya la'er!"
Rather than,
"Hey there lad, how have you been?"
"Oh, that's good. Well, see you later!"
Open-Response-Questions
Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?
As the Dwarf yells, Will glances towards him. Saddened, he tries not look again, but cannot resist. He looks to the Dwarf once more, walking towards him. He throws towards him a few minas. The Dwarf looks to him, a little shocked at the generosity, "Th-thank yer, friend."
Will nods, forcing a smile. He continues walking, trying not to think about it too much.
You’re in the Cloud Sanctuary late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. The only present monk is fast asleep, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
[These poor Dwarves!] Will's eyes open a little wider at the sound of shouting. The Dwarf snarls at the Orc, taunting him and daring him to move. Will grimaces, scared of what will happen next. He does not want to witness death. Will fumbles, regaining his balance and running away, not looking back. He hears a distinctive 'THUD' as he makes his leave, reassuring himself a brawl has not occurred.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: Will grits his teeth as the fall happens, waving his hands in the air in a frantic attempt to stop the man's drop. The man hits the ground and minas rolls around all over the place. A few children run over, ignoring the old man's state they pick up some minas, sniggering and running off. Will is a little frustrated, he tries to help the man up but struggles. After a little while of stumbling and staggering, a few guards come over, helping the old man to an easier place to rest. He smiles at Will as he is carried away, a few teeth missing. Will waves.
