Thanks for the help. It seems to stop lagging if I wait a few moments when I log in, but I will try connecting to that other IP, thanks!

Thank you both, I'll try everything listed above and get back to you as soon as I can. I'm swamped with homework and other things at the moment. :P

Hi, I've recently been having problems connecting to the server... I know it's not my base connection because I can connect to other servers with a higher ping rate than LoTC with no problem at all. I've also been speaking with my friend who lives not far from me, and he can connect just fine. I'm having problems typing in game, and anything related to speaking or movement. I also have a video of what happens when I log in if it would help to upload it. Thanks, and sorry to be a bother! -williamsrocks55 (Iaewon Grisham)

Iaewon emerges from the group wearing simple leather armor that has been dyed black. After stopping, he stands and looks out over both the people of Malinor, and the people of Darkhaven. He turns to the residents of Malinor and begins to speak. “As we stand here making the choice of a lifetime, I see not two groups of mali, but one. If Malinor, no, if mali as a whole are to be regarded with any respect from other races we must take a stand, involving war or not, in union.” He pauses and appears to think for a moment. “To all mali I give my bow and my word, for I will fight for each and every one of you, not to mention this nation. Thank you.” He then steps back, staying behind Azel, and looks around at all the people of Malinor.

In-Character Details Character Name:Iaewon Grisham Character Race:Elf 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: (Indent) My name is Iaewon Grisham. I am 27 years old, and alone. At a young age in the town of Elandriel, my mother become obsessed with Mori' Quessir, leaving me in charge of my two younger siblings. My father join the Malinor Sentinels after I was born. From taking charge of every fathomable aspect of my life at a young age, I have learned to keep my true personality and emotions hidden, even around friends, which can be a problem sometimes because of my rare short brown hair. As my siblings get older, I plan on leaving the house to adventure on my own. (Indent) Just recently, I met a group of elves about my age while practicing my archery skills. I stopped to talk to them and learned that they have interests similar to mine. The only difference is that they are interested in the Malinor Sentinels. To my surprise, they too are planning on leaving Elandriel. Since I met them, I've been teaching my siblings how to act in the real world, on top of practicing archery with my small group of friends. At the moment, my siblings are as ready as they ever will be, and my friends are at the verge of leaving. What are your characters ambitions?:Iaewon would like to become an adventurer, and become a high class archer. When he grows old, he'd like to run an archery school to teach new elves how to shoot.

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? "Wares of all kind, anything you could possibly need right here!" I stop and look over at the small dwarf running a small secondhand shop. I've had a long journey from Elandriel, and I need to stock up on supplies. "Hello dwarf, might you have any arrows in stock?" "Well I believe so, let me check for you." I watch the dwarf as he walks back to his storeroom to check for some arrows. I don't have an immediate need for arrows, but I figure I might as well become friendly with one man in the city. After all, I do need a place to stay for the night. "Why yes, I do believe I have a few here for you." The dwarf says. "Thank you, I'll take them all." I say. "Might you know of any place I could stay for the night?" I ask the dwarf. "Hmm. Yes, I might know of a few places." 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? I'm walking down the road to visit my two younger siblings in Elandriel, when I hear a small skirmish going on. "Give me your lunch money little dwarf, or I'll he forced to use force." "I've told you ten times too many you big bumbling Orc, I don't have any!" I hear the victim say. I round the bend in the road carefully, and I pull out my bow and notch an arrow on the string. I look at the scene and it's exactly as I expected, but the Orc is looking away from me, giving me the advantage. I look at the dwarf, and his jaw drops. The Orc turns around and I say a bit too late, "Stop right there Orc, or I'll shoot you where you stand!" "Hmm, looks like I've get myself in a peculiar situation here, haven't I?" The Orc says, with a slight quiver in his voice. "I'm giving you one chance. Turn and walk away, never bother me or this dwarf again." Without another word, the orc glares at the dwarf and stomps away making sure to show his might. Once he is out of sight, and earshot, I look at the dwarf. "I suggest you hightail it from wherever you live otherwise that orc will make you his dinner. You may travel with me if you'd like." "If you wouldn't mind, I think It'd be a good idea to stay with you my friend. My name is Rragh." 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?: I am passing through a trade route between towns when I see an old man pass next to me. The man reminds me of my father so I pass him without saying a word. Once he is out of my peripheral vision, I hear a stick snapping, and the sound of a man hitting the ground. I turn, and I see the old man in a heap on the ground next to his walking stick that snapped in half. I start walking towards the old man, and lend him my bow to use as a walking stick. I pick up his coins and carry them while helping the old man to the next town. Once we are there, I buy him with my own money, a better walking stick, and leave him with the walking stick, and his coins with a simple, "You're welcome."

(Indent) From recently leaving my old home, I am in a good mood, and walk over to the shop keeper. I ask to see if he has any arrows, for my stock needs to be replenished. He does have a few arrows, and I buy them from him. After the sale, I ask him if he knows of any place I could stay for the night and if there are any quests available in town. I thank the shopkeeper for his services, and tell him that I'll try and recommend friends. You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf.

I really do feel for this dwarf, and I decide to help him. Quietly, I get my bow out and notch an arrow on the string. I call to the Orc to stand perfectly still. When the orc finally complies, I tell him to leave the scene as quickly as possible, or I will be forced to injure him. 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.

What does your character do?: (Indent) This old man reminds me of my father. Though I would really like to take the man's money and walk, I pick up the man's coins and fix the bag. After this, I let the man borrow my bow as a walking stick to bring him back to his home. I do all of this without saying a word, and leave the man at his home saying a simple, "You're welcome."
