Out-Of-Character Information
The simplest section of the application. Answer these questions so we can get to know you a bit more. Please do your best to correct spelling and grammatical errors, this is an RP server and writing is the main form of communication!
What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: - Rawdawg
How old are you?: - 17, 18 in less then a month
Have you ever roleplayed on a minecraft server before? If so, where?: - I'm afraid not, however I do have a large amount of experience with role play via DnD hybrids as both Gamemaster and player.
Have you applied to this server before? (Please link past applications): -
No
How did you hear about us?: - I was looking into possible minecraft servers with a LotR setting. This looked to be mature and well organized then most if not all of the others on google, so I came here. I am aware that the server lore is its own making.
What do you think the server will be like? - Hopefully it gears toward an older audience with mature and majorly serious role play and unity. If this is not the case and you don't think I will enjoy this experience then please don't hesitate to deny my application.
Have you read and agreed to the rules?: - Yes
What’s the rule you agree with the most?: - Many previous servers I have looked at do not specify the severity of 'walking the line' and therefore lack the proper psychological downplay that says "If you do something that a moderator doesn't deem fit for comfortable gameplay, then your banned". You make that clear in your rules and I respect that.
Do you understand combat rules, and what you can and can’t do if you do choose to roleplay as a villain?:- I understand completely.
Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense?(If so maybe we can help clear it up! You will not be denied for having a question on the rules):- Your rules are very solid and therefore I hold no question as to their meaning.
Definitions
These terms are a major part of the server and in a few of our rules. Please define them so that we can get an understanding of how much you know about roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers or check on our wiki, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not those of another website or person!
What is roleplaying?: - Roleplay is the act of becoming the intended character that one has set for themselves in an immersive style.
What’s metagaming?: - In regards to role playing it is particularly described as using knowledge as a player over the knowledge of the character. Say, for example, that as a player I knew that the apple was poison through out-of-game hints but my character has no way of knowing so I choose not to eat the apple based on player knowledge and not character knowledge.
What’s powergaming?: - Powergaming is preformance of getting to a particular goal within a game through any means necessary via skipping the fun bits such as story and bypassing the mechanics and so on. Otherwise its an improper way to play a game as it strips any and all manners of fun just to get to the end result.
In-Character Information
Now you actually make your character - be creative but stay reasonable! Make sure they make sense and that you follow lore. Try to come up with a character that you actually want to play.
What’s your character called?: - Daedas (Pronounced Day-I-dus) Orivan Alkayden
What race are they? (and sub-race if applicable): - Human - Northerner
What gender are they?: - Male
How old are they?: - 23
Give us a highlight of their past, What life events make your character the person they are today? This is your character's biography. It is also required to include server lore when writing. (Names of towns, major server events, ect. Most lore can be found on our wiki.): -
(Note that my time scaling may be off, and if so I can make the necessary adaptation to Daedas's past to accommodate the lore's time scale.)
Born in the final years of Alstion, Daedas was forced to fight at the early age of ten against the Undead horde that threatened the existence of Oren. In the early battles, Daedas grew familiar with the workings of blade and bow, becoming ever stronger until the Undead horde broke through Alstion's gate when he was but fifteen. Hope seemed gone at that point and it was only through the love of his warrior father that he survived the fall.
After waking in the smoking carcass of Alstion, Daedas could only watch as his father, who had sacrificed himself for his son, turn into an undead. But Daedas could shed no tears at that moment, for he had shed to many for one person in a lifetime. In one swipe he ended the creature that inhabited his father, and left the city under sunlight.
The following years of Daedas's life were harsh and he could only make his bread through the use of his blade, becoming a sellsword. He has fought for many a people but has mainly kept to himself, sharing words only when necessary.
What are they like? (personality): - Daedas's is quite silent but will speak when necessary. He is quick witted in the comings of combat with an average amount of knowledge to lifestyles of different cultures due to adventuress job as a sellsword. He is stern and holds himself very solemnly.
What are their ambitions?: - His wishes are merely to survive doing whatever work he can in regards to mercenary activity. He hates the undead utterly and will not hesitate to take a job to kill undead over something like bandits.
Do they have any special skills? What are their weaknesses? (Try to list a few of both): - He is extremely proficient in the way of the sword and equally skilled in bow. He also has decent knowledge in horse care and riding for transportation. As his personality, his charisma is weak and he has no friends, making him a loner. An additional weakness would be his hatred for undead for he will not stop till he has rid them out of his sight even if his life is in danger, though he is not so blind as not to duck from a skeletons arrow.
Give us a description of how they look?: - He stands a good six feet tall with slightly tanned skin from his travels. He has long brown hair and dark blue eyes in addition to several scars from both Alstion and his occupation.
Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: - I have made a custom skin fitting my minds eye of the character. The scars could not be added as due to the limitations produced by the limited boundaries of minecraft skinmaking.
Good luck and thank you for applying to the server!
