Have you ever been banned or received a strike? If so, link the report: I have not.
Do you hold / have you held any other staff positions?: I have held the positions of Tech Team, Media Team, and Event Team (as an actor and co lead).
What MMORPG/video games have you / do you play? (Past and Present): Excuse the list:
What are your characters? Are you willing to sacrifice any to become a Event member?: My character is Arzota Shadeleaf. He can become an event character only if extremely necessary. I've two others, Hilan Athna and Shae'tan which are already technically event characters, and who I would happily put back in such positions.
What race / group do you think your events would best cater to? If none in particular, give an example of the type of group that your events would entertain.: Everyone says they'll focus on one group mainly, I've played here long enough to know the intricacies of each niche so I believe that any party (Be it Pve obsessed, Rp oriented, or Dungeon related) could be catered to by my events.
What do you believe are key factors for a successful event?:
A Good Hook: Without this, characters and players aren't interested whatsoever. A hook is what determines the course of event. Bad hook? Bad event.
Enjoyment: Over all, even if the ET must sacrifice their own time, the player's enjoyment comes first. You are a tool to the people as an actor and so long as that is the case the expectation to make the populace happy is paramount.
Story: Whether it be a short 5 minute tale or epic week long escapade. A good story has four things. A beginning, a middle, a twist, then an end. To make the event memorable, there must (at least) some hint of these elements.
Challenge: When something challenges a player to think, they become involved both mentally ic and oocly. Give them something just challenging enough to elicit a response, but not too challenging as to make them give up any hope of winning.
When was the last time you saw a event?: On this server, it was feral elves event some time ago. Else, Benbo gave me a rather interesting welcome back event with Knox the day after my return.
What strengths could you contribute to the Event Team? Are you knowledgeable in lore or great at organizing?: I've been around for about three years with a short break as of recent. I know lore, history, strategies from Dungeon Mastering, and like to focus on chain events. The ET is as large as ever, and I believe I may fit in with the pool of talent already present therein.
Why do you want to be part of the ET?: Its as simple as this. I want to tell stories again.
Create three distinct RP scenarios/events based on LOTC lore that you would organize.
These are pitches to the Managers and Ouity, not to the community. Note: Not all of the group must be handled at once. Eg: 20+ people via 5 person increments in a dungeon.
(Each of these written in skeleton format due to fluidity of players)
1) For 1-3 person: Mage of the East
2) For a group of 5-10: “Never feed him after midnight”
3) For a group of 20+: Flight of the harpies
How long do you plan to stay in the ET?: So long as I’ll be had, I can’t say for sure but so long as everything is as stable as it was last time, I’m ready to put work back into the team.
Tell me a joke: A dyslexic man walks into a bra.
