Anything you'd like us to know?: I await to partake in jolly cooperation with the Order!

Out-Of-Character Information The simplest section of the application. Answer these questions so we can get to know you a bit more. Please do your best to correct spelling and grammatical errors, this is an RP server and writing is the main form of communication! What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: - DemocraticPuppy How old are you?: - 17 Have you ever roleplayed on a minecraft server before? If so, where?: - Yes, actually this one, Rise of Kings, Wayward Realms, Lands of Conquest, Averian, and Arithia Have you applied to this server before? (Please link past applications): - Yes, and I was previously accepted a little over a year ago as can be seen https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/85624-human-southron-democraticpuppy/#entry744438 there. I was actually curious as to whether I could simply make this application so as to let the staff know I wish to be re-white-listed, as -- like any person -- I don't wish to make an application for the server since I know -- unlike just any person -- that I can RP at a high level. How did you hear about us?: - Common knowledge throughout the MCRP community What do you think the server will be like? - Mostly I expect an enjoyable RP environment where there will not be any OOC issues overshadowing the RP -- or that's what I intend for the server to be like for myself. Have you read and agreed to the rules?: - Of course I have, just like I read through the terms and agreements section for my iTunes account ;D But seriously, I've done enough RP to know what I should and shouldn't be doing. What’s the rule you agree with the most?: - Probably the ban on descriptive sexual roleplay and Fade to Black enforcement. I've seen that kind of stuff tear servers apart. Best to just keep it out 100%. Do you understand combat rules, and what you can and can’t do if you do choose to roleplay as a villain?:- Don't plan on being a villian regardless, but yes, I do indeed understand, and the combat rules make sense, PvP does tend to simplify matters. Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense?(If so maybe we can help clear it up! You will not be denied for having a question on the rules):- Nope, everything's dandy over here Cap'n. Definitions These terms are a major part of the server and in a few of our rules. Please define them so that we can get an understanding of how much you know about roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers or check on our wiki, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not those of another website or person! What is roleplaying?: - A form of escapism used by people who want to get out of the grind of daily life and experience a life that would otherwise be impossible with the mind's creative capabilities, like a knight in a magical kingdom, or a space warrior in a galactic age, but more accurately, it's taking on a role you imagine to have some good ol' fashion wholesome fun. What’s metagaming?: - Using the knowledge you have acquired through external means of the RP taking place and taking advantage of it within said RP, something that should not physically be possible in the second, RP world created. What’s powergaming?: - Disregarding what the players around you are thinking, feeling, or trying to accomplish, and rather going out of your way, and your character's abilities to succeed at something you shouldn't because either you senselessly feel they should without the necessary ability or knowledge, or because you simply do not want to "lose". In-Character Information Now you actually make your character - be creative but stay reasonable! Make sure they make sense and that you follow lore. Try to come up with a character that you actually want to play. I fully understand if you guys want me to create a second application after this one including an In-Character biography, I just want to ask on this first attempt whether or not -- judging from my OOC application, former accepted application here, and reputation as a good RPer to a vast number of the MCRP community -- I could be accepted without having to do all the extra writing. I'm just looking to enjoy some RP and currently with my job, social life, and other responsibilities I'd rather not spend the time writing an essay on a new character. You're going to have to give me quite the benefit of the doubt when I say this but I will read the lore, that much I solemnly promise. I enjoy reading and it's a pleasurable leisure activity of mine, so worry not on that front. Oh, and I tried attaching my RP skin, but it really didn't want to work for me. I eagerly await your judgement. What’s your character called?: - What race are they? (and sub-race if applicable): - What gender are they?: - How old are they?: - Give us a highlight of their past, What life events make your character the person they are today? This is your character's biography. It is also required to include server lore when writing. (Names of towns, major server events, ect. Most lore can be found on our wiki.): - What are they like? (personality): - What are their ambitions?: - Do they have any special skills? What are their weaknesses? (Try to list a few of both): - Give us a description of how they look?: - Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: -

Ah thank you very much!

I hate to be a nitpicker but I was accepted (The link to my application is below) but I still have not been white-listed by a Game Moderator. Like I said, I probably should not be bothering with making a forum thread about it but I was interested in playing and have found myself unable, so if this could get resolved I would greatly appreciate it! http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/85624-human-southron-democraticpuppy/

[b]Out-Of-Character Information[/b] Please fill out the following questions as accurately as possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate. Minecraft Account Name: DemocraticPuppy How old are you?: 16 Time-Zone: GMT -5 Eastern Seaboard, United States Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Yes I have What previous experience have you had in role-playing?: I have role-played extensively on the Rise of Kings server How did you hear about the the Lord of the Craft?: A referral from a friend and fellow role-player Link any applications that you have previously made for the server: None Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If not, then please do so (link above): I will after filling out the remaining information and posting Have you read the Human lore, and shall you ensure you make use of it and follow it in your biography?: I had read what I assumed to be the human lore page, even if it didn't seem like the correct information but I do promise to abide by the restrictions and capacities of the lore I read. Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!: Role-playing: The act of playing a character that is either a creation of yours or a biographically preset character that you are asked to play (I.e. If you portray a person IC son, you follow the type of personality set out for you), that in either scenario, you are expected to act, feel and think like at all times, not letting OOC (Out of Character) thoughts disrupt you. Meta-gaming: The act of using information gained from an OOC source that you then used to benefit your IC character in some way (I.e. You heard on OOC chat that there was a plot to kill your character at a certain place and time and for that reason you stray away from that area at that time solely based on your illicitly gained knowledge.). Power-emoting: The act of setting your character up in a position where it is impossible for you to be toppled either due to you playing the game specifically for the purpose of "Winning" or because you refuse to accept your loss (I.e. Running in Iron Armor whilst in an RP fight; simplest example I can think of). In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Timon Fleetmark Current Age: 23 Sub-race (if any): Southron Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Growing up as a child Timon lived a rather dull, unadventurous life which now looking back on it, probably set him up for the life he would later live, but more on that later. As previously stated Timon never grew up with many traumatic experiences Sometimes his family would fall on hard seasons but for the most part Timon was spared anything to really mar his life. He never went hungry and he never got extra either, none of his family did of which included his older sister Tiyra and younger brother Tiash. All of the children would work the family fields with their father Tigon from dawn to noon, retire separately to play or read and live out their lives in general peace. Even though Timon did have two siblings and they were always close he never really was a sociable lad mostly in part because his family was a frontier homestead on the very cusp of each human civilization there was to be had! Eventually Timon would grow a keen interest in the use of bows, swords and hunting gear as a whole as a new way to provide for his family, an involving way that did not require bending your back over a hoe for hours, sometimes to no avail. Timon tried showing this to his other siblings, both of whom did not understand his interest in these martial skills, instead accepting the farming life they were born to. It was only his mother, Tysha, who understood Timons troubles. He yearned to be free from the oppressive yolk of farm life and explore the land, meet its people and learn what there was to be learned! After a (Not so peaceful!) talk with his family, Timon was sent off with the love of his family, his dream and his clothes on his back, never once looking behind him to the past he left behind. Now just a young man in the large world Timon is looking for what friends he can, skills he can learn and knowledge he can be taught! Ambitions for the Future:[/b] He plans to start a guild for people like him, small homesteader young men who want more in life, including excitement, joy and the thrill of songs and fighting. Personality:[/b] Very open-minded, thinks about situations before he forces himself into them and overall a very polite and gentile young man who wants to help the people he can and befriend those who would take him. Skills:[/b] He strives to be an expert with both a bow and a sword and makes up in determination what he lacks in raw skill and talent. As well to this he already has an adept use of the farming hoe having been working with it his entire life. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b] Added in the attached file below Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b] [b]Open-Response-Questions[/b] [i]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.[/i] ____ [b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b] Answer: *As Timon watches the figure lurk through the dark and sinister city alleys he also thinks to himself about multiple things such as 'Who is this man' 'Why is he doing this' and most importantly 'What should I do?!', as he ponders these questions to himself Timon comes back to reality and makes a decision on the matter at hand after some careful thought. After a few long strides up to the guards Timon greets the man he assumes as the guard captain, due to his splendid armor style, with a curt nod and gives him his customary hello* Guard Captain: "And what be it you be needing this day eh?" Timon: "I was taking a stroll about as I normally do during these hours to calm my mind and I saw a rather loathsome figure briskly walking to the emperors living quarters, actually he may still be there...either way I just wanted to inform you good men on the situation and let you know that an issue may occur!" *The Guard Captain shakes his head disapprovingly before looking back up at Timon as if he were a complete fool* Guard Captain: "Ya blasted idiot, this entire time ye've been rattlin' off hes probably been making his damn way to the palace!" *The Captain then roughly shoves his way past Timon, beckoning his men to follow. After watching them run off with a confused "Hmpf" Timon figures his job is done and he may continue his nightly walk.* [b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b] Answer: *Upon carefully overlooking the entire situation Timon sighs to himself inaudibly and retreats to the edge of the clearing to begin thinking about what to do and why he would do it. After careful deliberation Timon decides the most prudent course of action is a stealthy one and in accordance to this thought picks up two rocks, of about the same size. Upon taking one rock in hand he winds up and tosses one of the rocks, aiming for the bandits center mass, succeeding in hitting one of them.* Bandit 2: "Bloody hell was that?" Bandit 1: "Do I look like I fookin' know? Go search it yer damn self!" *The bandit that was hit by Timons rock then begins to search back in the woods aimlessly. A moment or two after the bandit disappears in the brush, Timon carefully paces his way through the clearing towards the bandit still harassing the old man, neither of them noticing him as they are both too absorbed in each other.* Bandit 1: "I aint gon' lie...we could kill ye' right now...and be done wit' it o' ye' can jus' give me what I came all the way out 'ere fo'" *The Old Man looks at him with a cocky grin and scoffs* Old Man: "Your scare tactics will not work so easy here my thieving friend..." *Right as the bandit is about to speak Timon brains him with the second rock in his hand and while the man is going down, pulls out his longsword rather awkwardly but succeeds in cutting into his neck arteries making his life blood drain into the grass fluidly and the eventual death of the bandit* Old Man: "Eh....thanks laddie, wasnt really necessary to /kill/ him though..." *The Old Man scratches his head looking down at the body sullenly* Timon: "On the contray my withered friend, he is necessary for the next action I perform!" *As Timon cuts the rest of the sinews of the bandits head off and spikes it on a hardy stick from the cottage, the Old Man shakes his head in both disapproval and confoundment as Timon works* Timon: "Now...we wait..." *And so they did until the second bandit returned to see his old cohort with his bloodied head on a spike, after a moment of staring the bandit decides the better of the situation by troting off into the woods again, after watching him off Timon turns to the Old Man, both of them inside his home.* Old Man: "Well damn I say it, thanks lad, you've been a real blessing." Timon: "It was a pleasure to help one of whom has trouble defending himself...but if I may ask, what were they looking for?" *After a few moments under the stony glare of the Old Man, Timon speaks again* Timon: "Well then...perish the thought! Like I said, it was a pleasure to help!" [b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).[/b] Answer: *As Timon sniffs in the city air, he realizes why he left his homestead for the excitement of the city! Here was a place where you could do what you wish, see what you want and lo and behold, buy what you damn well could! After a confident strut over to the merchants stall Timon listens to the man ditter on about the items he has to sell and where he got them from...* Merchant: "The finest wares on this side of Asulon(Anthalos?)! Furs from beasts long thought extinct! Spices from lands that only rumors are spoken of and hell even a Dragons Tooth!" Timon: "My good man, you presume to tell me you sell these wares at a /reasonable/ price?" *Timons leans forward as he speaks and when he is finished, winks hopefully at the man* *The Merchant responds in a boisterous and obnoxious tone* Merchant: "Of /course/ so my friend! Everything at a discount, this I swear by all faiths and denominations...across Asulon(Anthalos)!" *Timon then taps the counter three times with his fingers along with a happy smirk* Timon: "Well my good wares-man friend I am sold and so is your Dragons Tooth!" *After fishing through his pouch for his money purse Timon weighs the bag in his hand thinking* Timon: "How much did you say again...?" *The Merchant's response, all together not that quickly and with a slight stutter, comes out as this...* Merchant: "U-...For you my friend...four hundred Minas!" *Timons shrugs with both his shoulders and eyebrows and tosses the man his Minas pouch and takes the tooth. It is only later that night, as he inspects the 'tooth' further that he realizes that the item is in-fact a War Boar's tusk! Now knowing his folly, Timon contemplates what he will do now that he has no money and only a tusk to show for it...*
