As a possible fix to the alienating new player thing.

What if we gave new players a lot more monk-bread then they get now. And have it so Monk-Bread takes forever to go off(or not at all)

When I first started watching this, I found myself sighing and shaking my head. However, as the video went on I became more and more excited. Because now picking a profession is not just viable for rp, it's now viable for time-saving; the normal player is not going to go through all that hassle just to make an iron sword, rather they're going to buy it. Suddenly becoming a blacksmith and spending time as one is a useful career choice.

I'd love if you could do something to help along the non-crafting professions like being a bard or thief or so on. I have no idea how you'd do that but I'd love to see it.

10/10 Because Tibbers scares me.

I like how the app is at the moment. Looking back on it I sort of enjoyed that anticipation in constantly refreshing the page. I will say one thing though, when an applicant is accused of stealing or copying someone elses definitions of Metagaming and so on, a link to the original content should be posted. On my first app I was denied for copying the definitions even though I wrote them myself and had no way of knowing where the 'original' was.

I like this one: Racism is allowed in-character, but make sure you don't do it out-of-character - it can only be towards other in-game races.

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?: - Dunetis Alvorus

What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Elf - Dark Elf

What sex are they?: - Male

How old are they?: - 119

Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): -
Dunetis was born and raised in Malinor. Dunetis has always valued his family quite highly. Despite growing apart from them later in life Dunetis has kept good ties with his family. Even as a young lad Dunetis prefered to take the easy option out, often coming up with clever excuses as to why he was not the optimal person for the task. Despite being generally proficent with a dagger Dunetis tends to avoid combat, often seeing it as the "most awkward and difficult option" to take.

One thing Dunetis does value, and always will value, very highly(aside from monetary gain) is the "benefits from being with others" which is just a fancy way of saying having friends.

What are they like (personality)?: - Dunetis is a rather swuave gentlemen. One might even describe him as the dashing rogue type. He's one to generally disregard rules and guidelines for the easier and more efficent.

What are their ambitions?: - Generally speaking monetary gain.

Do they have any special skills?: - Dunetis is very adept at talking his way out of situations.

What are their weaknesses?: - As mentioned above Dunetis does not like fighting, even to the point where not fighting is more likely to get him killed. (I'm not sure if that counts as a weakness per say, more of stubborness. So just in case he's also a horrible sword-fighter, he literally can only fight with a dagger)

Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Dunetis is average height, with purple eyes and Silver-Grey hair. Despite being of a similiar mind in regards to fashion as most dark elves, Dunetis tends to dress rather plainly when travelling about.

Anything else you want to say about them?: - Not really, that's essentially it.
