Picture of Skin:

Out-Of-Character Information Please fill out the following questions as accurately as possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate. Minecraft Account Name: SunderedHeart How old are you?: Nineteen. Time-Zone: Australian Eastern. Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Of course. What previous experience have you had in role-playing?: I've been an avid role-player for several years. I've done both table-top and forum role-play, but this will be my first time to Minecraft role-play. How did you hear about the the Lord of the Craft?: I was searching for role-play boards and forums when I came across Lord of the Craft. Link any applications that you have previously made for the server: This is my first application. Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If not, then please do so (link above): I will shortly! Have you read the Elven lore, and shall you ensure you make use of it and follow it in your biography?: Of course I have, and yes, I do. In particular I've found the lore on dryads to be very interesting, and I've discussed with Ever the possibility of my character becoming a dryad after my acceptance. Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!: Role-playing: Role-playing is when you step into the shoes of another character, taking on their personality and traits and interacting with other characters in a fantasy world. Meta-gaming: Metagaming is the use of information that is out-of-character in in-character contexts. This could be something as serious as avoiding characters played by players you don't like out-of-character, or something as simple as knowing someone's name before they tell it to you. Power-emoting: Power-emoting is an emote which forces an action upon another character, leaving them no options or alternatives in how they respond. For example, saying "Alenna strikes the man with her sword". Instead, an emote like "Alenna slashes at the man with her sword". This leaves the options open for the opponent to respond rather than forcing a hit on them. In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Alenna Njassa Current Age: 94, still young by elven standards. Sub-race (if any): Wood Elf Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Born and raised in the elven capital of Asulon Malinor, Normandor, Alenna was raised to care for and respect nature. Whenever she wasn't helping her parents by cooking or cleaning, she loved to roam the forests outside of Normandor. She felt at home and comfortable in the boughs of a tree, and helped the foresters tend to the trees. Her parents encouraged this behaviour, both being wood elves and both sharing and respecting her attachment to the forest. Although raised to be somewhat of a pacifist, despite her parents' best attempts they could not quell her defensiveness over trees and the forest. Being forced to leave Asulon after the destruction of the beacons was a little traumatic for Alenna. She was heartbroken to see the trees and forests she had tended to so lovingly left behind to wither and die. As they sailed away from Asulon, Alenna could be found sulking and moping at the deepest part of the elven ship - not wanting anything to do with the uncaring waves around them. Alenna began to recover on the isles of Kalos and Elysium. There, able to lose herself in the comfort of the trees and forest again, her wounds began to heal. However, she could not grow attached to these forests as she had those at her home. She knew their stay would not be permanent, so kept herself at a distance from the trees even as she cared for them. Alenna made a solemn goodbye to the forests of Kalos as they left, not left in despair but quiet loneliness. As they made their final arrival at Anthos, Alenna once again settled into Malinor with her family. However, she seemed unable to grow attached to these trees. She almost felt as if something somewhere else were drawing her away. She packed her meagre possessions and quietly left one afternoon, determined to seek it out. Ambitions for the Future: Alenna wishes to search for whatever it is that she's being drawn to. But her overall ambition is just to live a quiet life, in tune with the forest. Personality: Alenna is often mistaken for shy, but she is often just reserved. If she does not feel like she has anything to say, she prefers to stay quiet and listen to others talk than talk herself. However, when she feels that her precious trees or forests are under threat, she can grow aggressive and even hostile very quickly. Skills: Other than tending and caring for the plants of the forest, Alenna has very few skills outside general household cooking and cleaning. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Any other details you wish to share about your character: Nothing, aside from I plan to have her become a dryad in the near future. Open-Response-Questions Each question in this section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point. ____ 1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react? Answer: Feeling somewhat defensive about the situation, Alenna approaches the high elves warily. Ignoring their scathing comments as they turn and see her, Alenna kneels by the child and offers him her hand. She speaks softly to him to comfort him, before leading him away from them and into the forest, perhaps to her favourite tree. Hoping that the high elves did not follow her, she would clambour in the boughs and tell stories to the boy until she was certain they were gone. Then she would lead him back to Malinor. 2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do? Answer: Alenna cringes at the sight of the fallen man - but not because of his situation, but of the broken wood in his hand. What would possess someone to tear an arm off of a beautiful tree to use to walk on? Steeling herself, she averts her attention away and looks off into the distance as she continues to walk, swallowing to calm her nerves down. 3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved). Answer: Strolling through the forest contently, Alenna stumbled upon a small clearing in which a camp lies. Curious as to what the disruption in her forest is, she tentatively approaches the campsite, to be met with a bodacious merchant. He hawks his wares, showing off this, that and the next thing, but a small sapling, dying but still alive, catches her attention. She speaks up hurriedly that she must have it. The trader laughs loudly, saying that's his pet, not for sale. She repeats herself, her tone more demanding that she must have it. "It is dying! It needs the care of the forest! she protests, growing more angry as he continues to refuse. After reaching a heated impasse, both glare angrily at each other. Finally deciding the trouble was not worth it, the trader hands the poor sapling over to her, telling her to begone before he makes her begone. Satisfied by the encounter, she scurries away into the forest to nurse the sickly sapling back to health.
