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?: - Rialpicto
How old are you?: - 15
Have you ever roleplayed on a minecraft server before? If so, where?: - I have role-played on several MC RP servers in the past, listing in chronological order ; Gildorym (For around 12 months), Averian (For around 3-4 months), Wayward Realms (For around 3-4 months as well). Overall I have been role-playing for about 1 1/2- 2 years.
Have you applied to this server before? (Please link past applications): - No, I haven't
How did you hear about us?: - I have mostly heard about this server due to chatter on TS3. I have also a few friends who play here, by a few I mean one, Zammie. As of late, I decided to investigate the server due to the fact the current one I play on, the staff prefer to play Dota 2, rather than admin the server.
What do you think the server will be like? - Personally, I am hoping for an RP experience which will allow me to fully express my character ideas in a way which will not limit me as other servers have done so.
Have you read and agreed to the rules?: - Yes, indeed-a-rooney.
What’s the rule you agree with the most?: - No hugely descriptive sexual roleplay, because this in my opinion means that characters cannot abuse the fact they are in sexual orientation with a powerful person to allow their character to become a ridiculously powerful person, despite their background/origin.
Do you understand combat rules, and what you can and can’t do if you do choose to roleplay as a villain?:- Yes, I do.
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):- No, I believe I have a grasp of it.
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?: - Role-playing, is the act of assuming/imitating the position of another person, whether they be fictional or non-fictional, the idea of it, is to get into the mindset of the person and act how they would do.
What’s metagaming?: - Meta-Gaming, is the use of OOC information IC in order to change the course of RP.
What’s powergaming?: - Power-Gaming, is the mentality of making your character a dangerous person. Through role-play this is often done via the method of not allowing your opponent in RP combat for example the chance to defend themselves fairly against your strike, eg: A: *A smashes B over the head with a mace, bashing his brains in and killing him instantly*

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.): -
As a child, Sammy was born into the harsh, northern climate, in a small settlement of which the main produce and work was farming. Taken into the life of a pauper in the world of Aethera, he was taught by his father how to sow, tend and reap crops in the harsh climates of this land.
Sammy being of a rather adventurous nature, would sometimes sneak off work with his father to climb about on rocks and cliff faces in his youth, allowing him to get a sense of belonging in the rocks and crannies of the landscape as a young boy, but he would always try and make up for it by bringing his mother and father something back from his little trips into the mountains. Sometimes it'd range from things like small amethyst crystals he'd find in little piles of rocks, or sometimes it'd even be a few fruits, he'd found on a barren tree. Just the little things can turn a bad day into a good day, he'd think to himself as he did so.
As he grew older, he learnt slowly how to use a longbow. Taught by a hunter who'd pop by ever often and sell goods to the town, he'd ask for lesson, with a bow his grandfather had crafted him before he'd passed away, giving it to Sammy as a "Right of Age" gift so to speak.
So, every time the hunter stopped by, Sammy'd, little by little, develop his skills as a hunter.
He aged, and with him so did his skills with a bow and, after the hunter had moved well on from the little town of Snowy Fields, he'd developed a knack for catching and killing game with his bow.
By the age of 28, his parents had both passed away of natural causes, he decided that it was his time to fly the nest. He took what little he owed, a few Minas he'd earned from selling the pelts and meats of his kills, and he set out towards the capital of the Realm, Aunenburg.
Never to return to the his small childhood home, far north of the hustle and bustle of the city again, for it's fate was sealed when he left, but that is another story for another time.
What are they like? (personality): - Sammy, has a good sense of when not to get into a fight, due to his extensive hunting trips at a young age, he has the ability to keep a calm, clear mind when he has to fight, but prefers not to do so.
He can be rather chirpy at times, especially when introduced to mead, but alot of the time, he prefers to keep himself to himself, being a rather withdrawn and shy person.
What are their ambitions?: - Sammy's ambitions are not exactly the most exciting. He simply wishes to be able to earn himself enough money to be able to sustain himself independently.
Do they have any special skills? What are their weaknesses? (Try to list a few of both): -
Sammy's strengths are, as I have said;
He is very good at keeping a calm mind in situations of stress due to his constant hunting in his youth.
He is rather skilled with a long bow.
He can be rather stealthy.
Very good with heights.
Fast.
Weaknesses:
He's unable to use a sword, he can only use small knives and hunting knives.
He's not useful in head on combat, he's very weak in head on combat, he prefers, if he must fight, to flank his enemies and attack them from angles they wouldn't expect.
He's very shy, and struggles to talk to strangers, especially women.
Unable to swim.
Very weak in head on combat.
Give us a description of how they look?: - Sammy Kent, is a human northerner of around 5'8", due to the fact, that lack of food in his childhood has stunted his growth. His eyes are a green colour, which slight flecks of gold and his hair is an auburn brown colour, he will usually wear a black cowl around his head and neck, and his clothing is rather typical of a pauper, he wears long green robes, to help him blend in with the shrubbery. He has a small goatee on his chinny chin chin.
