Out-Of-Character Information
What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: - SharpPencil
How old are you?: - 16 years old
What time-zone do you live in?: - Eastern Standard (US & Canada)
Have you ever roleplayed before - if you have, how?: - When I roleplayed, there were three main chats. There was Shout (Appx: 55 blocks), Local (Appx: 25 blocks), and Whisper (Appx: 3 blocks). You would use these chats depending on how you wanted your character to sound. You would then use OOC (Out of Character) chat to communicate with players out of RP. To emote, you would use an asterisk (*) and then speak in the 3rd person. If you didn’t mean to say the previous line or accidently messed something up while tpying, you would type ((void)) to let the player know you did not mean to say that.
Have you been on any other roleplaying servers?: - I have been on one roleplay server with a relatively small community that a couple of my friends put up.
Have you applied to this server before?(Please link past applications): - No, I have not.
How did you hear about us?: - I heard about Lord of the Craft whilst talking to my friends in school about minecraft. I heard about all of the fun and cool adventures about it and thought it would very be interesting.
What do you think the server will be like? - I think the server will be like Lord of the Rings...but better. Creating your own character and having them interact with various other players is a very interesting concept.
Have you read and agreed to the rules?: - Yes, I have.
What’s your favourite rule / the rule you agree with the most?: - The rule that I favorite and agree with the most if definitely the rules about PvP. I very much enjoy the idea of having to retrieve the other players’ consent before attacking each other. It adds a fair and fun element to the game and makes it so people do not create out of character issues.

Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): -
Astron Bersaunas was born in the outer boundaries of Abresi. His family resided in a rotted shack with his mother and father. About two months after Astron was born, his father had left the house due to unstability of their financial issues. Astron was raised by his working mother. She had worked as a seamstress and made so little income, she could barely put one loaf of bread on the table each day. When Astron peeked the age of 17, he realized the deficit they were in and promised his mother he would help all he could. He went into the town of Abresi and wandered around asking townsmen how to build and use simple tools such as pickaxes. shovels, hoes, and axes. Astron was extremely greatful for these men teaching him these skills. The next day, Astron set out to cut down some trees in the outer boundaries of Abresi for lumber and sell them in the main town. Astron was receiving some revenue from doing this so he continued to do other things such as planting and selling wild flowers. Soon, Astron was making enough income to help his mother with expenses. They were now able to put two or three loaves of bread on the table everyday, but were still relatively poor. Using some extra lumber, Astron was able to repair some of the rotted wood on their house. Astron’s mother was very pleased and greatful that he has been doing this. They have been able to have steady income and keep food on the table. On evening, Astron was contemplating on new ways to make revenue. He decided to purchase glass bottles and jars from inside the town and go to the outskirts of Anthros to fill them with water. On his way to the water sources, he was greeted by Elves, awed by the underground structural genius by the Dwarves, and frightened off by the terror of the Orcs. After filling up the bottles and returning them to Abresi, he began to make more and more money. Although he and his mother were not as poor as they once were, they were still poor but managed to obtain more and more income. As a result, Astron currently is a working man at the age of 18 and is receiving money to support himself and his mother by selling lumber, water, and flowers.
What are they like (personality)?: - Astron has a neutral personality. He is very polite to people and respects anyone he encounters. He has a positive attitude and is usually smiling. Astron tends to be very willing in negative situations. If someone yells at him, he will apologize and ask if there is anything else he could do.
What are their ambitions?: - Astron’s ambitions are to keep working in order to support himself and his mother.
Do they have any special skills?: - Astron learned various trades from townsmen around Abresi. Some of his skills currently include planting, cutting down trees, selling water in town, and is learning how to farm.
What are their weaknesses?: - Astron’s weaknesses are negative situations. He does not enjoy to feel like someone dislikes him. He wishes that he could be friends with everyone and people are usually nice to him.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Astron has a pale face with shaded red lips. He has long black hair that falls in the back of his head and rises to upon the side of his head. He has a neutral expression but tends to smile a lot. He wears a red shirt with a leather coat with pockets to hold his various tools. His pants are somewhat torn but are in well condition to work in.
