Out-Of-Character Information
The simplest section of the application! Simply answer these questions so we can get to know you a bit better.
What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: - Silveth (Decided to use other account besides Prothas)
How old are you?: - 14
What time-zone do you live in?: - Pacific Standard Time (PST)
Have you ever roleplayed before - if you have, how?: - No, I have not.
Have you been on any other roleplaying servers?: - Not yet.
Have you applied to this server before?(Please link past applications): - Yes, one application. Link to previous application: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/103504-prothas-application/
How did you hear about us?: - A friend.
What do you think the server will be like? - An immersive fantasy world where I can progress my
character and pick up some new tips about role-playing, as well as have some fun in general.
Have you read and agreed to the rules?: - Yes.
What’s your favourite rule / the rule you agree with the most?: - The rule that states that you must both agree to combat or role-play up to combatting/PvPing. The reason I call this rule my favorite is because it allows you to not have scattered PvP fights where everyone dies randomly, just like a factions server; and it adds a fair advantage to enjoying your time rather than restarted your 'journey' every five minutes.
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?: - Pretending to be someone or something else; something that will most likely never happen on an everyday basis. To go into a different land, like a fantasy, a myth; to experience the unknown at your will, any time, whatever the cost may be. You get to do whatever you want, just like a dream. You get to "role-play" as whatever you want, an imaginative world of wonder.
What’s metagaming?: - Metagaming is using out-out-character context to get an unfair advantage in-character through means of Skype, team-speak, etc. Basically using knowledge that your character has not received through roleplaying to your advantage.
What’s powergaming?: - Powergaming is when you don't allow someone to write a proper response to your emote, and/or something ridiculously impossible that they would not be able to be involved in or prevent said role-play.
In-Character Information
Now you actually make your character - be creative but stay reasonable! Make sure they make sense and that they follow lore. Try to come up with a character that you actually want to play.
What’s your character called?: - Joseph Zanin (Joe for short)
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Human, Northerner.
What sex are they?: - Male.
How old are they?: - 22 years of age. (as of now.)
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Joeseph grew up in Salvus where he watched his family waste away in slavery and sadness. As a young boy he didn’t understand, but when he slowly reached maturity, he watched in pity as his father worked and worked, and then pitied himself because he’d be doing the same. Joe had no intent on becoming like his father, or like anyone in his family. They were all workers, farmers, slaves, and lumberjacks. He didn’t want to be that. He wanted to support himself, but not this in way. He wanted a real home, not someone else’s. He wanted a happy family, not to watch it through a window. When Joe reached 17, he had decided to leave. He had little to no money, but he knew he could do it. He’d spend nights at Inn’s and days doing random work, and he’d travel around Anthos. He began to make some friends, and in that, he got information.
When Joe found out his home, Salvus, had been destroyed and he couldn't believe it. He ran to his homeland, only to find the ruins of a once beautiful place. His family, he had no idea where they were. Maybe they were dead. He had no goals anymore, nothing to return to if he failed. Joe was all on his own now.
What are they like (personality)?: - Joe is a strong willed character, when he sets his mind on something, he does it. He understands what it’s like to be on his own, and he knows what it’s like to be a slave. And so he tries to give to the poor when they need it.
What are their ambitions?: - Joe wishes to settle down in a nice home, where he can grow his own food and have a shop where he can make his own money. He wants to settle down with a wife and a few kids later, but initially he just wants to support himself.
Do they have any special skills?: - Joe hasn’t learned much in his short lived life, but he knows ordinary skills such as woodcutting and farming.
What are their weaknesses?: - Since Joe is so strong willed, and he doesn’t notice other things. He’s ignorant sometimes because all he wants is that one thing, he’ll do anything to get it, his family.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Long brown hair (For a male.), he’s got lighter skin, brown eyes. Tall, muscular (from working.), and some scars.
Anything else you want to say about them?: - Nope.
Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: -
