    What do you believe are key factors for a successful event? 
     
    I think that there are many key aspects to making a successful event. Those following aspects would be:
     
    1. The Theme.
    I think that it is incredibly important to consider the mood and theme of the event planned. The theme should most likely be unique and entertaining for a large variety of players. All player's have to be considered when creating an event, and not simply plan one that you would enjoy to take part in. After all, not every one thinks the same way. You would also need to understand that a good event introduces a mood or feeling into their minds. For example; an event could make the player/character feel happy, sad, angry or even confused. Of course there are many more examples of mood that an event could be introduced and it is important that all of them are taken into consideration.
     
    2. Timing.
    A successful event would need participants to fill it. Without a majority of players and characters taking part; their would be little point in holding the event. As part of the planning, you would have to take into consideration of the most popular player timezone. Not only this, but the most busy time of the week, or month; when players are most likely to be on. Map's can often be large, and players are everywhere, not all in one place. Insure that when holding an event, that there is a larger amount of people online, so that it's more likely to have more participants to your events. Surprise is also important to make the player's and their characters feel as if they have been caught at an inconvenient time, and would show how they as a person would react.
     
    3. Reasoning.
    The Event Team has a reason, for the events and for it's existence. However it's important that when creating an event or even holding one; that it has a purpose. For example, if suddenly a large beast walks up the stairs of a majorly populated city, and struts inside a tavern, there would be absolutely no reasoning. Alongside the idea of this "beast", there would need to be a back story, or a side lore. These things needs to be understandable to all players, not to mention easy to adapt to. As well as the idea being simple, it would need to be well planned and detailed for entertainment. Perhaps there is a war party, leading down the road, marching to battle. Suddenly a pack of Hyena's appear from out of the undergrowth, and their teeth are dripping with saliva. No doubt that this would be well planned, however surely even Hyena's would be terrified of possibly 100 men in armour, stomping and shouting down the road? It has to have reason, and be intelligent. Perhaps a landslide might be more realistic or reasonable compared to a pack of ferocious animals preparing to assault a war party.
     
    4. Size.
    Depending on the main idea/theme of the event you would need to realize how many people would be needed to act as the characters, animals and/or creatures. Once a party of Event Team Actors had been gathered, remember that known populated area's are key places for these events to take place; and often don't need to be a surprise. Warnings can be given before hand, IC or OOC.
     
    5. Setting.
    Once an idea and theme has been developed, with a lore or back story the actors should be able to hold the event easily together. Communication and co-ordination is crucial to the event, and descriptions of the area would probably need to be given to add to the setting. Remember to make sure to place the acted characters in places that are unique. Just like a normal character an actor would need to immerse themselves with this new one; to add to the setting of the event. 
     
    6. Location.
    Like I said before, the whereabouts of the event will need to be decided accordingly to wherever it is more likely the theme would take place. In addition to that, the amount of players around or near that area would be taken into consideration to allow enough people to enjoy and participate. Events are about experience and entertainment, to introduce something new into the lives of characters around their world.
     
     
    What type of events are you most interested in creating?
    I am interesting mainly in creating events that will increase the entertainment level when travelling between lands and cities, towns and villages. I'd be creating events that may come across to be partially disastrous or unexpected, or something strange to come across.
     
    What strengths could you contribute to the Event Team?
    For the amount of time role playing on this server, and meeting new people and their characters; I feel that I still have much to explore. It's an adventure, both IC and OOC and I think that by understanding what people's characters are like, and having an enjoyable time with them I could introduce unique events. I have never applied for any staff application because I enjoy the fact that I am still a player, learning and exploring way's to improve my experience. I myself have taken part in a few events that have inspired me to continue on. These memories have stayed with me and I hope to do the same for other people.
     
    On top of this I think I am understanding. People will make mistakes, I have made mistakes; and it's important to forgive these sorts of things. I know I would probably correct those mistakes, or let the person know what they have done wrong in a kind and understanding manner. This way, I can decrease conflicts in RP. I like to say I am a kind person, and love to meet peoples characters. Allowing myself to meet these characters, not depending whether or not our characters will end up getting along with each other; or even seeing one another again. It's all part of the experience, and to me that's important. I'm patient and won't rush people when they are busy or need to leave. I'll wait for them, or understand if they need to leave in the middle of something. There is no rush to do these things. I am confident in my role playing experience and can adapt to create a new character and use that character in a unique way, and differently to any character I have ever had before.
     

     

    Create three distinct RP scenarios/events that you, as an actor, could create for others (one paragraph each):
     
    The Blind Boy (1 Actor as the boy.)
    As the player walks down the road, nearing the next populated area; he hears a grunting, sobbing noise around him. Nothing more happens for a few moment, until a small child stumbles out of the undergrowth and onto the road ahead of him. His eyes look dilated, and tears stream from them. His knee's and arms are scratched from obvious collapse. He holds his shaking hands before him, calling for help; whimpering softly to himself. The boy is helpless, blind; and unaware of where he is. How did this boy become blind, will anyone help the poor boy, and how will they react to the situation?
     
    Landslide (3 Injured people, a man digging on the scene.)
    As player's arrive at the scene, alerted by a horrific and loud sound of rock and wood splitting. Bark snapping and the faint sound similar to sand sliding down a dune. A man, covered with dirt and seemingly only slightly injured digs around in the mess. As the player comes closer to the surprising scene, battered arms and legs are visible beneath the dirt. A man's chest and face has been recently uncovered, his eyes open only a squint. Something heavy crushes him down. The man spots the players and cries out desperately to help, waving his arms out to them. These people will die if help does not come soon, and suffocation is evident for those trapped beneath the dirt and debris of rocks. Rain begins to fall, the dangerous area becoming more and more prone to another possible slip. Something must be done, and fast. The player has the opportunity to leave, and not risk his own life or take the risk and help these people.
     
    Bats. (1 actor for bat, 2 actors for sickly men around the area.)
    A tiny, miniature bat has been seen flying around town. With it, usually clutched to it's clawed feet are small berries, yellow and red with stripes. It enjoys the company of human beings, flying into populated area's and watching. It seems friendly, and with it's tiny being seems cute and noticeable to be a unique bat. The bat would occasionally fly down, perching itself close to people, or perhaps on the shoulders of others. It sits itself, cleaning and making faint grunting and squeaking noises. It occasionally eats, shuffling around on the person's shoulder. Two men, individually walk through the area, complaining of a horrible rash and itch. The men's health drastically decreases and they begin to panic, losing motor functions in their bodies. Each time the bat flies away, lazily scratching it's claws into the skin of the characters, it goes to retrieve more berries for it's meal. The bat itself is harmless, but those host to the bat's claws suddenly begin to experience the same medical illnesses to those of the sickly men. Who will pick up on this, and how many people will fall ill to the bat's deadly claws first? What could it be that makes the bat's claws so fatal?
  4. Noah sits silently inside their room. His eyes with dark circles beneath them. Tears roll down his cheeks, splattering onto the floor between his two feet. The household is quiet, silent, eerie. No rumbling of feet, no high pitched laughter from the two playful children. He sits inside the lower bunk, his legs dangling off the edge, barely touching the floor. His lower jaw trembles, his hands shaking with adrenalin. His brother, Des; lays on the top bunk; clearly as distraught as himself. "Is mummy re-really gone, D-Des?" he stutters, desperately trying not to burst into a frenzie of tears. Noah shudders, wiping his eyes with his arm. "I th-think so, Noah." he says, barely a whisper. Noah looks down, depressed; confused, and shaking. He lays back on his pillow, burying his face deep into the soft material. It horrified him to think of a life without his mother, without the comfort of her arm around him whenever he needed it. He felt desperate and alone now, knowing that his mother would never come home from her walk, never be able to give him that comfort he so desperately needed now. Opening his eyes, rolling over and staring at the ceiling of the bunk; he whispers to himself. "Goodbye mam'." His eyes dry from tears now "I love you." he takes a breath, shuddering "I alweh's  will."

    Character name: William Sunfeather
     
    Char Bio (one or two paragraphs): William was born and raised in House Valois. Although he was not relative to this family, his parents had good and technical relations to them. Growing up as a human male, training with the other boys, his father and brother; he quickly adapted to the basic skills needed for the time being. Over time, Will's boyish body became more muscular as time went on, his hair long and rarely brushed. Spending a great majority of time in the Valois establishment, he never returned after his arrival in Asulon, where is step-mother had disappeared, and his father also. By this time, Will had reached that age of 16, and was over average in his athletic build. He learned to survive in with his brother and friends in Salvus. Trading between cities by selling game from the Wilds.
     
    Now, at the age of 19; William is built, however still keeping an incredibly handsome complexion. His green eyes are unnatural, obtained from his birth mother; and his hair sits long and scruffy on his head. He speaks softly, calmly; and still has the ability to entertain those around him. His build as stayed relatively the same in the time spent hunting, not building; not decreasing. William now searches for a greater purpose to serve, one that he understands and would die for. After being comfronted by a stranger in the uniform with a bear emblem on the torso  his new path was laid out in front of him. At the point of giving up, he now had a choice, one that he had been waiting for his entire life.
     
    Char military history: William joined a local vigilante guild named the Occulta, this is a private organisation. This only required stealth and the ability to use a sword, however his skills were rarely inserted into this job; and often simply ended in fights or assaults. He trained personally in House Valois for 8 years, to learn the basics of taking orders, hand-to-hand, and sword fighting. His skills with the bow are average.
     
    Reason for joining: Having the order explained personally to him, and his need to turn his life around; Will thought greatly on the matter, before deciding fully how much he had appreciated the opportunity. His life could now be turned around, on the right track, the right path.

    Pledge of Loyalty: I, William Sunfeather, do solemnly swear to serve the Ildician Order until death or release from the binds of this vow. I shall use my skill to protect the grand leaders of the Adunia and in turn the people they lead, I shall bring honour to my race and my Order, and I shall prove myself worthy to hold a position among it. If I am to forsake this oath, may my head be swept from my body and my remains left to rot, never to join my forefathers in the lands beyond. I swear this oath upon my life and all that I hold dear, before the leaders of our race and the [god/gods] above.

  6. *Looks up from his work as a bird lands in front of him. He smiles, taking the invitation from the red bird. He reads it for a moment, then his eyes widen, his mouth drops and he leaps from his chair. He swallows, fumbling with his bandages as he pulls them loose. He leaps into a tub of cold water and screams out to his brother "Get th' soap Tybaro! I'm goin' to a wedding!"

  7. I can assure you that it is far from an April Fools joke. Everything in that OP is being done, and will be going ahead. The first parts of this shall be beginning in the next hour or so - beginning with the removal of status updates and the OOC forum.

    I sincerely hope your joking, honestly, if this is a joke; I would incredibly irritated, even more than I am now.

    This is a mistake and frankly, joining a ruined server will be harder for you then for us.

  8. I believe we should still have the ability to local chat, and message another player. It helps us communicate easier without having to open an internet tab at the same time..not all players have stable internet and/or cannot have the internet open the entire time we wish to be on the server.
    Though some of the idea's are equally good, I ask you to please re-consider stripping the players of local chat and messaging.

    The fact that you even consider making the server non-whitelisted is absolutely terrible. Hundreds, perhaps thousands of people will join the server, most of which un-educated and pvpers only wishing to either grief, troll, spam or try rp but fail miserably. Yes you will get more people to join, but the right ones? I don't want to join a server filled with hundreds of terrible rpers, even if they are joining to rp at all.

  9. That was a really interesting read, though I have only been in light RP with your character once before. I really enjoyed learning more about your character and life that he has experienced.

    Definitions

    In your own words, define what the act of role-playing is: Roleplaying is taking something to a whole new level. It consists of extreme realistic acting. To role-play you must take up a role, act it sensibly and stay true to who your new personality is.

    In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is: meta-gaming is a type of realistic gameplay. As the time is set long before the "players" time, The character you are roleplaying as the character would have no idea of the ways of the present time of the player.For example, it is sharing information to another person when the character has no realistic way of knowing such things. Such as sharing co-ordinates or telling someone how to get past something over skype or foreign communication software such as phones or computer applications etc.

    In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is: This is simply another way of role-playing. Power emoting, is when you are roleplaying and you are attempting to achieve something, However the opposite "power gamer" continues to throw down those attempts. For example; you say;"Bowman fires an arrow at the unsuspecting victim" and the opposite player responds with; "Knight dodges arrow and throws spear into the heart of the bowman". Or *Knight aims sword at bandits neck* and the bandit replies; *Bandit pushes sword away and stabs knight*. Power emoting is to type out your actions as if you were doing them.

    In-Character Details

    Character Name: Sade Carthos

    Character Race: Human

    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: I come from the lands of Solace, My birthplace. My name is Sade Carthos. I know my mother and fathers names, however they were murdered when I was a young child. I do not remember their faces but I remember their killers face perfectly. His stern face, crooked cheekbones. I would never be so lucky to avenge the death of my family, at least not for many years. I was sent away to Asulon soon after, however, I did not want to leave. It was not my choice. My brother would not let me stay here as long as there was a blade eager to taste my blood. It was lucky he sent me so soon, both my servant and my brother were slaughtered as they slept. Now, I am the last of my bloodline and now a new king rules the throne that my father once sat upon. I fear that if I should return home I will be treated undoubtedly as the rest of my family was.

    On my travels in these strange lands I was taken in by a simple farmer and his family. I housed myself under the sturdy roof of a barn. I worked as a farmhand, tending to the animals and working off the land. It was hard work and for 6 years I stayed with my new family. Even though we did not share blood, I loved them as I loved my previous family, and to this very day I know they loved me back. The work made me sturdy, well built and athletic. I did not know much about combat, I remember only vaguely the art of battle that my brother and father once taught me. My hair has grown long and almost reaches the base of my neck. The blonde strands curl at the ends. I could defend my new family from predators. However I could not defend my own father from the illness that took him from me. It was soon after that my half-sister would become ill as my father was. I new I couldn't stay. I took a vow to never rest until my family bee cured from this illness. And so, I traveled far from my home to the unknown land that stretches out before my feet.

    What are your characters ambitions?: To avenge the death of his family and find a cure for his new sister and mothers illness.

    Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here: 2uop0zm.jpg

    Is there anything else you would like to say about your character: Sade Carthos is sensitive however he still carries his arrogance that was passed on from his father. Nothing will walk over him, At least, Not without a fight.

    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? I hear the small mans deep voice call to me. I know my goal is not here with the dwarf, however my thoughts sadden as I notice how desperate he really is. I turn and face the man. I do not stare, nor treat him any disrespect. I have seen his race before, once. Along the road to where I am now. I greet him politely and unfortunately my voice stumbles as it once did as a boy. I repeat my greeting again with a controlled voice. He smiles, "its been a long time since someone decent has responded to me." I look down at my feet and smile, "and I am decent, You would know?" I reply. "Aye, I would assume so lad." I shuffle towards the man and ask; "Can I see your goods?". The dwarfs expression lightens. "as you wish." W

    You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?

    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 defenseless man. What does your character do?: I am surprised to see the old man crumble to the ground. He moans quietly, He stares into my own eyes. I see fear, the same fear I saw in my fathers eyes as he slipped from reality. A pile of Minas has piled at my feet. I crouch down and roll the Minas around in the center of the palm of my hand. The Minas could almost definitely aid me in my quest to find a cure. However I would be committing a felony, Stealing from the weak. I would not do such a thing. I could not. I lay down my own walking stick and scoop the coins up in the hands. The old mans first impression of my actions left him bowing his head sobbing. I Pour the coins into the pouch and lay it in front of him just enough for him to see it. As his head lifts I hold my hand to him. "thankyou" He whispers softly. I help him to his feet and put the stick in his hands. Saying nothing, I turn to walk away but he cries; "wait!" I turn and face him, His free hand extended, holding a singular gem. I smile at his offer. "Be safe, these roads are hard. Keep that purse somewhere hidden." I take the gem from the man and turn to walk away, no more words are spoken and I do not turn back.

    You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? After spotting the ork and the dwarf I know that Orc's are excellent warriors and I would be foolish to engage him with nothing but a knife. I stand like still on the road, the Orc's aggresion and the Dwarfs arrogence do not mix, I can see that as long as I stand here and do nothing, the problem will escalate and blood will be spilled tonight. I cautiously step forward and on my first few steps the Orc's head snaps toward me. Staring me down. The Orc speaks a language I do not understand. I stand my ground and say nothing, do nothing. The Orc seems to have become irritated and moves toward me. Before he takes another step I shout out to him; "stay you ground, Orc" He seems to understand my word, However I have no way of knowing if he is startled simply by the way I am responding or not. "I do not know what is going on here, Nor do I want to, You will both carry on your separate paths and speak not of what happened here again." The orc spat at my feet and I tried hard not to show my undoubted fear. The Orc turned and stormed toward the dwarf, growling foreign words toward him before pounding off into the wilderness. The dwarf looked my direction and smirked; "thanks lad. He wont be gone for long though. These roads are dangerous at night, Best be careful." "I will, fear not little friend" With that I crunched along the road passed the dwarf and said no more. I needed off this road, I did not want to stray into another complication like that again.

As the time is set long before the "players" time, The character you are roleplaying as the character would have no idea of the ways of the present time of the player. To know a new location you must follow someone instead of simply obtaining the co-ordinates from another player. Or even read it somewhere else. For example, it is sharing information to another person when the character has no realistic way of knowing such things. Such as sharing co-ordinates or telling someone how to get past something over skype or foreign communication software such as phones or computer applications etc.

    In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is: Power emoting is to be a sensible gamer as you speak out your actions. A power-gamer is someone who attempts, usually without failure, to gain power over another. When power emoting, if the result becomes inevitable that you will fail, do not power-game. Power emoting is to speak your actions before another player. This is simply another way of role-playing. Power emoting, is when you are roleplaying and you are attempting to achieve something, However the opposite "power gamer" continues to throw down those attempts. For example; "Bowman fires an arrow at the unsuspecting victim" and the opposite player responds with; "Knight dodges arrow and throws spear into the heart of the bowman".

    Character Name: Sade Carthos

    Character Race: Human

    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: I come from the lands of Solace, My birthplace. My name is Sade Carthos. I know my mother and fathers names, however they were murdered when I was a young child. I do not remember their faces but I remember their killers face perfectly. His stern face, crooked cheekbones. I would never be so lucky to avenge the death of my family, at least not for many years. I was sent away to Asulon soon after, however, I did not want to leave. It was not my choice. My brother would not let me stay here as long as there was a blade eager to taste my blood. It was lucky he sent me so soon, both my servant and my brother were slaughtered as they slept. Now, I am the last of my bloodline and now a new king rules the throne that my father once sat upon. I fear that if I should return home I will be treated undoubtedly as the rest of my family was.

    On my arrival to Asulon I was taken in by a simple farmer and his family. I housed myself under the sturdy roof of a barn. I worked as a farmhand, tending to the animals and working off the land. It was hard work and for 6 years I stayed with my new family. Even though we did not share blood, I loved them as I loved my previous family, and to this very day I know they loved me back. The work made me sturdy, well built and athletic. I did not know much about combat, I remember only vaguely the art of battle that my brother and father once taught me. My hair has grown long and almost reaches the base of my neck. The blonde strands curl at the ends. I could defend my new family from predators. However I could not defend my own father from the illness that took him from me. It was soon after that my half-sister would become ill as my father was. I new I couldn't stay. I took a vow to never rest until my family bee cured from this illness. And so, I traveled far from my home to the unknown land that stretches out before my feet.

    What are your characters ambitions?: To avenge the death of his family and find a cure for his new sister and mothers illness.

    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? I hear the small mans deep voice call to me. I know my goal is not here with the dwarf, however my thoughts sadden as I notice how desperate he really is. I turn and face the man. I do not stare, nor treat him any disrespect. I have seen his race before, once. Along the road to where I am now. I greet him politely and unfortunately my voice stumbles as it once did as a boy. I repeat my greeting again with a controlled voice. He smiles, "its been a long time since someone decent has responded to me." I look down at my feet and smile, "and I am decent, You would know?" I reply. "Aye, I would assume so lad." I shuffle towards the man and ask; "Can I see your goods?". The dwarfs expression lightens. "as you wish." W

    You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?

    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 defenseless man. What does your character do?: I am surprised to see the old man crumble to the ground. He moans quietly, He stares into my own eyes. I see fear, the same fear I saw in my fathers eyes as he slipped from reality. A pile of Minas has piled at my feet. I crouch down and roll the Minas around in the center of the palm of my hand. The Minas could almost definitely aid me in my quest to find a cure. However I would be committing a felony, Stealing from the weak. I would not do such a thing. I could not. I lay down my own walking stick and scoop the coins up in the hands. The old mans first impression of my actions left him bowing his head sobbing. I Pour the coins into the pouch and lay it in front of him just enough for him to see it. As his head lifts I hold my hand to him. "thankyou" He whispers softly. I help him to his feet and put the stick in his hands. Saying nothing, I turn to walk away but he cries; "wait!" I turn and face him, His free hand extended, holding a singular gem. I smile at his offer. "Be safe, these roads are hard. Keep that purse somewhere hidden." I take the gem from the man and turn to walk away, no more words are spoken and I do not turn back.

    You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? After spotting the ork and the dwarf I know that Orc's are excellent warriors and I would be foolish to engage him with nothing but a knife. I stand like still on the road, the Orc's aggresion and the Dwarfs arrogence do not mix, I can see that as long as I stand here and do nothing, the problem will escalate and blood will be spilled tonight. I cautiously step forward and on my first few steps the Orc's head snaps toward me. Staring me down. The Orc speaks a language I do not understand. I stand my ground and say nothing, do nothing. The Orc seems to have become irritated and moves toward me. Before he takes another step I shout out to him; "stay you ground, Orc" He seems to understand my word, However I have no way of knowing if he is startled simply by the way I am responding or not. "I do not know what is going on here, Nor do I want to, You will both carry on your separate paths and speak not of what happened here again." The orc spat at my feet and I tried hard not to show my undoubted fear. The Orc turned and stormed toward the dwarf, growling foreign words toward him before pounding off into the wilderness. The dwarf looked my direction and smirked; "thanks lad. He wont be gone for long though. These roads are dangerous at night, Best be careful." "I will, fear not little friend" With that I crunched along the road passed the dwarf and said no more. I needed off this road, I did not want to stray into another complication like that again.
