Definitions This is simply so that we can get an understanding of how much you know about roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not another website / person's! What is roleplaying?: Roleplaying is the act of portraying yourself as a fictional or nonfictional character. To transfer your mind into another world so that you may demonstrate a person or creature from a different time and or world. In order to role-play a character you must know how your character acts, thinks, and his or hers quirks. Popular games that use these aspects are L.O.L, Elder Scrolls, and Dungeons and Dragons- a tabletop fantasy role-playing. What’s metagaming?: Meta-gaming is when you know about something, someone, and or somewhere, that the character you are roleplaying would oblivious of. But that information further benefits your character in an unjustified, non-role-play accurate standard. For example you know that your enemy has a poisoned tipped blade so YOU know to avoid it, you should avoid it anyways but you know demonstrations sake. What’s powergaming?: Powergaming is an act of making a certain action upon another force or character without the other character having a chance to respond to it. It is a bit like a sneak attack.

How old are they?: 160 Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Pauvre âme was the son of a farmer, his father a simple loving man with a large heart. They lived in a small merchant town on the edge of Malinor. His mother died on the night of Pauvre's birth. Having no knowledge of his mother he constantly asked his father what she was like. Thus his father sat him down on the cold nights and told all the wonderful romantic stories he had stored from his past. As Pauvre grew he became increasingly fascinated with all the floras he and his father grew. He did numerous experiments on them seeing if he could increase the rate in which they blossomed, or possibly combine them to get something new entirely. This was very unusual behavior for a child a young as 7. His friends always fascinated with what new ideas he had and making wagers on whether they would work. Soon they tried to join him but were immediately lost. But as the years past more and more farms came into existence. This was bad for his farther's sales, they began going into dept and being wood elves didn't help either since they had no respect in the area. Eventually Pauvre had to leave his beloved school in order to help his farther make ends; but it wasn't enough, they simply could not compete with the larger farms. Then the tax collectors came with a grave warning, "Have the money ready tomorrow or consequences will be held." The next day they came for their money, needless to say they had none. So Pauvre's father turned to him, "Son, go and leave me." "Father, no I can't," "GO! I've lived my life, I've experienced love and raise a wonderful son. But now its time for me to go, and reunite with your mother." "But." "Use the back door." with that he returned to the tax collectors. "Do what you have to do." They raised their torches and set fire to the small hut. At the sight of the flames Pauvre began to run, but not before hearing his fathers scream as he burned alive. Pauvre watched the flames through his blurry eyes, tears stinging the burns he had sustained on his fore arms. Listening to his fathers screams, then the building collapsed, and the screams were smothered until they were no more. Years later Pauvre, now age 20, got a job as a stable hand. He tended to the horses, and made good tips. During his time here met an elven woman by the name of Vaible, she was a couple years older than Pauvre. She to was a stable hand. They soon fell in love and wedded, this went on for about a century. The time they spent together seemed like it would last forever. Vaible became a teacher and Pauvre became a librarian, reading the most fascinating books over the different races and their traditions. The destruction of aegis and the great collapse. So when the arrival of the new race titled Bohra came about, Pauvre headed north to study them, trusting him Vaible came along. The trip went horribly wrong, Pauvre did not expect for this new race to be hostile towards Vaible and him.The Bohra struck out at them, stabbing Vaible in the stomach, Leaving a gaping hole in her side. Retreating to a cave fairly close to them, for shelter, Pauvre held Vaible in his arms tears streaming down his face. She bled out in his arms, drawing in her last few breaths she said three simple words, "I love you." When Pauvre returned he grew sad and lonely, waking up each morning looking over at where she use to lay. Staying pent up in his library losing his grip of his sanity, he grew further and further away from society. "I am tired of the deaths, tired of not being able to protect the ones I love." And with that he joined elven military he became very skilled with a bow, but his small stature refused to let him wield a sword. But he became very skilled at treating wounds and illnesses with herbs he found whilst foraging for food with the others. He became a major reliability in the field. But when he returned home he returned to his books. He became increasingly fascinated with the art of alchemy. What are they like (personality)?: - Pauvre is a sad and very depressing elf. He often starts things then gets intimidated at how big the project is, but he never quits. When he is around others though he forces his self to be more cheery knowing that his sorrow spreads. Ever since the death of his wife he has grown more brittle, so he often stays secluded away from others. But like a butterfly coming out of its cocoon he is becoming more social. He is one poor soul, in fact Pauvre âme translates from french to, poor soul. He always has a high concern for others, especially his friends, so that he does not have another loved one lost. He has a constant fear of losing someone. What are their ambitions?: - Pauvre loves the world of art, he likes to imagine that behind every painting and sketch there is a story it tells. He also likes to farm in his spare time for the nostalgic feeling of his father. But his thirst for knowledge and knowing how the world works is really what drives him forward. Do they have any special skills?: - Pauvre is a skilled farmer and is able to take care of a horse if need be. He has the very basic skills of an alchemists, but really needs a teacher to help him improve. What are their weaknesses?: - His psychological weakness is his const ant fear of losing someone and getting hurt. Physical weakness is, basically every thing. His thin arms are only skilled at pulling back a bow, that's it. (If you really want to kill me, close range attacks are the way to go.) Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Pauvre is very small, even for a woodland elf coming in at 4 foot 6inches ( 1.3 meters). His dark green cloak loose and flowing being to big for him, torn and tattered at the sleeves and legs. A belt tied around the waist so it won't get in the way. Underneath is a dark aqua shirt that is in very good shape compared to the rest of his clothing, being tailored to him by his wife it one of his proud possessions. His hair coming well past his shoulders, is tied up in a warrior tail in the back. The front of his hair is let down displaying its length, the left strand colored a faint green. He mostly walks around bare foot, not because he is poor but because he choses to, he never was a big fan of shoes. Above that he wears aged leather pants, but underneath all of it he wears light weight chain mail armor. His cinnamon colored features hide his thin beard making it nearly unnoticed. His large dark brown eyes with a hint of red, make him noticeably sad. Anything else you want to say about them?: - Though he can be trusted by many, he is quite secretive. Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: - Thank you for reading, and your consideration. Fantastic, there you go. No need to write any more - simply post this on our forums (and on MinecraftForum like it says above) and wait!
