Out-Of-Character Information What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: King_Of_Hearts How old are you?: I am fifteen years of age. Are you aware the server is PG-13 (You won’t be denied for being under 13): Of course. I have read the rules. Have you read and agreed to the rules?: Certainly. I've read the rules to the last letter, and give my word to follow them accordingly. What’s the rule you agree with the most?: I'd most agree with the rule that forbids the spreading of propaganda against staff members. It puts the staff at odds with one another, and might eventually lead to loss of staff. Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense?(If so we can help clear it up! You will not be denied for having a question on the rules): Certainly not. How did you find out about Lord of the Craft?: I've heard about LoTC from many good companions of mine and heard mostly good things about it. Definitions What is roleplaying?: Roleplaying is essentially putting yourself in somebody else's shoes. Except that somebody else is your creation. You decide what they do, what they say, what they're like, and the decisions they make. What is metagaming?: Metagaming is the act of obtaining RP-pertinent knowledge through some OOC method (I.E. Skype, PMs, texting, etc.) and illegally putting it to use in roleplay. What is powergaming?: Powergaming is, to put it simply, the act of acting out something that would give your opponent absolutely no chance to combat it. You're essentially overwhelming them to the point that they have no chance to react. For example: Bob Bobbington VII easily blocks Benedict Cumberbatch's attempted strike. He kicks him in the balls, stabs him in the kidney, proceeds to leap over him and stab his mother in the face, then uses his sword to slice his head off, killing him instantly. In-Character Information Character’s Name: Cyrus Magnuson Character’s Sex: Male. Character’s Race: Cyrus is a Human. Character’s Age: Cyrus is twenty-six years of age. Biography (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add server lore, and events that happened to your character so that they don’t contradict history.): Cyrus was a simple village boy, living with his dear father and mother, Ferghus and Annabelle Magnuson. As his father was a blacksmith, one day he saw it fit to teach his young 13-year-old son the ways of this beautiful metalworking craft, and luckily for Ferghus, Cyrus took an interest. A very deep interest in fact, for he would not leave the forge that day. He continued to tinker with the different tools and equipment, hardly eating or drinking whilst doing so. One day, a couple of weeks later, Cyrus came home as usual, but he wielded an odd-shaped, uneven knife. When his father asked where he had gotten the knife, Cyrus answered with a jovial, childish "I made it myself, Daddy!" Ferghus was proud. More proud than he could've ever put into words. To him and Cyrus both, this was the start of something beautiful. From that point on, every day Cyrus smithed and smithed and smithed, under the watchful, yet helpful eye of his stoic father. Eventually, when Cyrus was eighteen years of age, a grown man in his opinion, he decided to leave the house to pursue his career. His mother was practically hysterical (and at that point Cyrus thought she was overreacting). But if his father was against it, he sure didn't show it. In fact, Ferghus loved the prospect of his dear son having a taste of the wide-open world, meeting new people, making new memories. He knew it had to happen someday, that his jolly ol' boy would grow up. Ferghus shed a tear from his eye, as he watched his son go, with nothing but a rucksack filled with clothes and blacksmithing supplies, to do just that. Personality Traits: Cyrus is a greatly friendly, sociable individual, and is hardly seen without his classic white-toothed smile. Ambitions: For the most part, Cyrus' main ambition is to be remembered by many, to die with friends by his side. To mean something. Strengths/Talents: His upper body strength definitely works to his advantage. Despite his brute-like, imposing appearance, Cyrus is also a very philosophical, intelligent man. Also, from years of metalworking with his father, he has exceptional smithing capabilities. Although, there are still some things he can't make. Weaknesses/Inabilities: Cyrus has the tendency to, if provided enough of a motive, be pugnacious and start fights with certain people. He is also capable of holding extremely long-winded grudges, some lasting for years. Appearance (List the extra details of your characters appearance, IE; height & weight): Cyrus would look to be about 6'4", and weigh around 190-200 pounds. He is of a muscular, broad-shouldered build, again, from years of blacksmithing and metalworking. He has a short, yet bushy brown beard framing his smile-worn lips. The hair upon his head is of a silky, straight, malleable texture, and carries the same color as his beard. Upon further observation, one might find that his eyes are of a color reminiscent of that of shining emeralds. Appearance, please provide us a screenshot of your character’s skin (If you need help, see our screenshot guide here): Just a bit of a side note here....I wasn't entirely sure about the blacksmith thing, so I decided to put it in in the off chance that I'd be allowed to have a character of this calibre. I expect it to likely be denied for obvious reasons, but again, I'm not entirely sure. Whoever reads this, thank you dearly.
