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?: - Roleplaying is when you become a character which is either already made or you make one up, and the character has to be made in accordance to the theme of the roleplay.
What’s metagaming?: - Metagaming is when someone uses information that they know, but the character shouldn't know. For example: "John somehow knew that there was going to be a raid the following night, and so he began preparing for it, not sure how he knew there would be one, but he just knew anyway." They may have talked about a raid out of character, but his character shouldn't have had that information.
What’s powergaming?: - Powergaming is when someone forces an action on another person. Instead of saying, "Koko attacked you, attempting to cut your arm off," if you were powergaming you'd say, "Koko sliced your arm clean off, leaving you with only one hand."

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.): - Koko was born a High Elf. He was raised as a High Elf until he was about 224, but then he left the High Elves. He was expected to be a Hiylun, and though it appealed to his nature, he refused. Koko did not want to be a high elf, he did not want to be in the "upper-class", he did not want to have attention...he just wanted to be Koko the elf. Kook-not knowing why- always had a secret hatred for Kalenz Uradir, but he ignored it, voicing it only a little bit before leaving the High Elves. Not really knowing what he now wanted to do with his life, he wandered around aimlessly for a long time, taking interest mostly in battle, as it was his speciality and his favourite activity. Koko and his sword were inseparable, and he saw the weapon as nothing less than an extension of himself, only stronger than his arm. After about two years, however, the Wood Elves decided to take him in, and he didn't have to hesitate at all. Not too long after joining them, Koko developed that endless curiosity that all Wood Elves share, and that only added to his ever-lasting thirst for adventure. He has a great respect for Dryads and Druids, and though he isn't quite so sure why, he's always trying to get a chance to learn something new from them. Now he lives happily with the Wood Elves in Thales, having moved out from Atgaard with the others. He is always taking up any and every chance that he can to protect his surrogate family against all threats, and never denying a fight, be it friendly or foul.
What are they like? (personality): - ...Koko is an idiot. He's a really nice person, he's kind at heart, his intentions are good, he will never harm those he loves...and he's also an idiot. He's skilled in battle, but otherwise he's a bit of a, "Whoa, where did I get this apple from?" type. Although he sometimes has sudden sparks of intelligence, most of the time it comes either too early or too late to be used in the situation, so instead of trying to use his brain, he takes his brawn to the limit.
What are their ambitions?: - He wants to further his swordsmanship, and he will always protect those close to him...or just anyone that he believes does not deserve to be hurt.
Do they have any special skills? What are their weaknesses? (Try to list a few of both): - I don't really know if this is a skill, but it's a difference. As opposed to most other elves, Koko prefers to use a sword as opposed to a bow and arrow. His weakness is math...or, well, anything that uses complicated logic, but he's ok with basic logic. He has also always been very unskilled with a bow and arrow, and is intimated by most high elves, but tries not to show it. Koko is secretly afraid of frogs and toads as well. Another thing that frightens him completely is blushing, as he always thinks that when one is blushing it means that their face is about to catch fire. His final weakness is...dancing. Koko cannot dance at all, he tried once and tripped, fell down, knocked a table over which in turn knocked another table over which in turn pulled down one of the curtains which was connected to all the curtains in the room...he was never invited to his thirty sixth cousin's birthday ever again. He's also always had a soft spot for Halflings, which can sometimes accidentally lead to bad things happening.
Give us a description of how they look?: - Koko has hair as white as snow. It's not too long, but it's not too short either, and it is extremely messy. He wears an old, worn out shirt that used to be white but has lost most of it's colour, and it's also torn in a lot of places. Koko has old, black, baggy trousers. Along with that, he has a pair of brown boots, they are slightly old, and the leather is worn out in a few places. Koko is also made of muscle and seemingly not much else...in terms of brains at least. He also wields a sword and has a brown, leather sheathe for it which is strapped to his back. He's also 6"4.
Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: - I'm so sorry, I tried uploading it hundreds of times but it wasn't uploading, again, I'm really sorry. Anyway, here's a link. http://tinypic.com/r/ir5qg4/8
