Out-Of-Character Information Please fill out the following questions as accurately as possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate. Minecraft Account Name: nnooaahh9 How old are you?: 15 years old Time-Zone: Eastern Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I have read the rules. What previous experience have you had in role-playing?: Not much for roleplaying, mainly because I have never found a true role playing server before. I enjoy making personas for myself in regular minecraft servers, just for fun, and I find roleplaying to be very enjoyable. How did you hear about the the Lord of the Craft?: From a IRL friend, who got me very interested in the server. Link any applications that you have previously made for the server: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/90656-human-the-broken-clocks-application/ Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If not, then please do so (link above): Have you read the Human lore, and shall you ensure you make use of it and follow it in your biography?: I have read the ancient lore, and most if not all of the modern lore. I have mentioned a few different items from the lore in my biography. Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!: Role-playing: Role-playing is the act of assuming the role of a specific character and deciding what they do or say. The best role players are people who are completely immersed in their character, and know how to lose and win fairly without over powering their character. They can stay in character no matter what happens. Meta-gaming: Meta-gaming is the process of using information obtained and acknowledged in OOC and applying said knowledge to affect your character in IC. For example, should you know of an upcoming raid OOCly and then act accordingly in RP without RP knowledge of the situation. Another example of meta-gaming is breaking immersion of character and doing something your character would not normally do. Power-emoting: Power-gaming is behaving unrealistically and giving your character unrealistic and sudden advantages with no context or supporting roleplay. For example, being pinned down and randomly pulling out a dagger, and using said dagger to insta-kill the assailant. While a dramatic example, it’s a valid one. Another example is forcing another character to perform a specific action without asking for confirmation of the action, as in a man is being robbed, and the robber steals money from the man without a reply. In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Lucio Magni Adelban Current Age: 20 Sub-race (if any): human Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Lucio was born as a twin to Poppy Leafhelm the fiancé of James Adelban: his brother was Sunny. Sunny and Lucio were separated at birth almost immediately. When Sunny was born, Lucio was born two minutes later, and the wet nurse decided, wrongly, to separate them without consent of the parents. This decision later paid off. Poppy Leafhelm died soon after her sons where born, leaving them alone in the world. However, their mother did not die from childbirth, but was in fact murdered. This event would come into play later. Both were raised unaware of their true heritage, and both were made aware of their true identity at the time of their father’s death. Their father, James, had hung himself after avenging their mother. Despite their past being revealed, their counterpart’s existence was never revealed, and they never met. Lucio did not visit his homelands while Sunny did, and instead ignored his past out of fear for the unknown and denial that the people who raised him weren’t his real family. Lucio wandered for a long time, striving to survive by himself in the wild and live off of his own harvest. He felt betrayed by the people who raised him; why had they not told him before he was nobility? Lucio became a somewhat skilled hunter as he roamed the lands of Asulon, hiding from the life of privilege he had been destined to obtain as an Adelban. He typically preyed upon smaller animals, like squirrels and rabbits, but as his novice skills drifted to mastery of the art, he began killing larger game, like bears and bulls. Finally, Lucio stumbled into Oren. He resorted to earning his way into a guard force of Oren, partly thanks to his years spent hunting wild animals and ferocious beasts. He fought long and trained hard to obtain average skills with the sword and with the bow. The job was not rewarding, however, and he became unsatisfied and disturbed with his job, mainly because of all the thoughtless and pointless murder committed by the guards. He was particularly traumatized by the blood lust of the men around them and their lack of morales. Eventually, Lucio abandoned his job and began mining in the iron mines, working long and hard hours. In the irons mines, at least, death came from natural occurences rather than the point of a blade. It was during one of these mining expeditions he found a clock hidden in the rubble of a cave in, with the name of one of the miners on it. The name engraved on the clock was long faded and unreadable. Lucio realized the mortality of the situation: that in these mines he would toil relentlessly and never receive recognition. He realized that if one day he were to be buried by rocks with no one to help, he would also be buried under the burden of time, disappearing into history like a whisper never mentioned. Lucio wished to change the world, to make his own name and defy his past. He went in search of work, seeking a purpose in Anthos: somewhere he would belong. He wandered into Kingston where immediately he was greeted by a “Kill on Sight List.” He thought mindlessly it could only mean more violence, until he saw a name on the top list. “Gat Collard Adelban: AKA, the Brittle Man.” He was skeptical. Was this his brother, or an imposter simply using the name to gain more renown? He felt he had found his purpose, to uncover the truth of his family name, and most importantly, to locate the man who could be his relative, or his greatest enemy. Ambitions for the Future: my ambitions are to finally come face to face with my family ties, and understand my ancestry. Also, if any kinsmen still live, I would like to reunite with them to learn my family’s past. I have ignored my ties for too long, and it has come back to haunt me. Also, the cruelty I saw in the streets of Oren need to be put to a stop. Personality: Lucio is sarcastic, obsessive, overly jealous, and meticulous. He loves to fight, and is very passionate about anything he gets attached to. He is hard to understand, but is loving to those who understand him. Very curious, Lucio rarely takes no from anyone, and even though he is very shy at times, he is increasingly stubborn. He doesn’t take things at face value, and often tries to understand things that are above him. While sometimes slow to take action, Lucio will fight until he dies or his opponent does when provoked. Skills: slightly above average swordsmanship, and sub-par archery. A basic understanding of the written language, and of history. Long distance runner, although slow for sprinting. Average stregth, resorting to use of daggers and short swords. Surprisingly good skills at hunting and tracking his pray. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Blonde, blue eyes, blond beard, pale white skin. http://imgur.com/OWTc9oM Any other details you wish to share about your character: Twin brother to Gat Collard “Sunny” Adelban (Jtheo2016)[[jtheo2016 allowed me to play his brother, and MonkeyCoffee is witness]], son of James Adelban and Poppy Leafhelm (Twiddlepop). 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. 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? Answer: Lucio chases after him waiting for the man to tire out, while Lucio arming himself with his dagger. When Lucio gets close enough to make sure there is no escape without a struggle, he yells “guards, Come quickly! There is a murderer!” While waiting, Lucio questions the person “what is it that you are up to, lurking in the shadows like that?” The mysterious man snickers “do you think I will tell you?” and slips away. Lucio follows quickly behind and throws his dagger at the dark-clothed figures back, knocking him down and injuring him, resulting in Lucio catching up. Finally the guards arrive and are able to help Lucio apprehend the dark-clothed figure. 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 long sword, how do you react? Answer: Lucio stealthily sneak up from behind, and grab one of the bandits. He then holds a bandit at dagger point, and promises “I will slice his throat if I have to, drop your weapons and leave that man alone!” The bandits pause, quickly regain composure, and the one that is free says “what is one weak kid against the two of us?” The bandit in Lucio’s grasp elbows him in the stomach, causing Lucio to release him. The other bandit swings his sword, severely injuring Lucio’s left forearm, and resulting in Lucio to drop his blade. Lucio yells “escape while I distract them, old man!” and punches one of the bandits in the stomach, sprinting away. Lucio barely get away, with a bad scar as his only accomplishment, and regret visible on his face. Him hears a cry in the distance, and knows he has failed. 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). Answer: Lucio spys the man, glancing at his wares. Lucio immediately decides to approach him, noticing the delicious pastries in the corner of the man’s display case. “How much for those?” Lucio asks the man, Lucio’s lips already dripping with saliva as he stares at the food. He salivates frequently, and the merchant can see the hunger in Lucio’s eyes. “300 minas for the whole sack,” he says. Lucio’s eyes grow wide in shock; who the nether would expect that price. Lucio knows the merchant wants to haggle, so with a sly gleam in Lucio’s eyes, he demands it for ten minas. The merchant is equally impressed that Lucio would risk shooting so low, but Lucio can tell the man wants to make some money today. “200,” he starts, “Final offer.” Lucio shakes his head and begins to walk away, intentionally making each and every step dramatic, hoping to entice the man to think again. “Alright! 150!” he exclaims. Lucio runs back in a hurry: not a wise move. “80 minas and we have a deal?” He responds immediately, “I will only go so low as 120.” Lucio was fine with that; he had just saved 180 minas.
