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?: - Roleplaying is playing the role of another character, it can be anything from acting to being someone like the Superman in a video game.
What’s metagaming?: - Metagaming is something like if you die and you say in OOC "Hey guys there is someone sneaking around our base and he is an Assassin! Watch out!" That would be Metagame. Or is someone says some RP information OOCly, and you take it into IC matters, that would be Metagame.
What’s powergaming?: - Powergaming is forcing an action onto another player for example /me Stabs the man in the gut then stabs him in the head to kill him. You would not give him time to react to the fight so that would be powergaming.

It all started off.. When I was a child we lived in Alras it was a city of merchants, my guardians would try to make me have the best life I could have, well we were not the richest around, but we found our ways to survive for the time being. We lived in a run down house, it was infested with all kinds of living things but they were more scared of us them we were of them so we would use that to our advantage I would use them for entertainment when ever we had nothing to do, I would chase them around until they were smart enough to hide in a crack or a hole in the house.
When Jothen was 13 years old my mother was walking home from her low-paying job she then heard someone following her, she would almost start to job as he was worried, then within a split second someone was right behind her sprinting towards her so she would run as fast as she possibly could, it was a Thug trying to steal what money we had left, but I guess it was not her lucky day, well lets just say the Thug had friends, we only found out when we could smell something that would small like rotten flesh, Dad could not stop crying for weeks when he found out, I'd tried to help him feel better but it would not help the situation he would just keep whimpering about mother.
About a month later he would start to recover from the situation that went on and he wanted to start training Jothen in swordsmanship for self-defence, Jothen would think he knew why dad wanted him to do this, dad did not want me to end up like mom did, when Jothen first felt the sword it seemed like then sword had extra Steel attached to the end of it because it felt really heavy! Dad first taught him how to hold then sword with great might and grip, then about two weeks later after training day after day, he would then show Jothen how to swing a sword, we would train on broken planks or anything else they could find around the house, at first it would seem really easy to swing a sword but it would do nothing to the broken plank, but when Jothen saw Dad swing the sword Jothen felt uneasy for a quick second. It would chop right through the wood like nothing, whenever he did that it would scare him each time but after awhile he would then calm Jothen down and we would keep training day after day.
When he turned 16 he wanted his Dad wanted him to get a job to help pay for the food, so each day he would walk around the city of Alras looking for some work to be done, then he would walk up to this guy, in a hood and a coat, he would ask for a job or if their was anything that he could help him with, the hooded man would then reply with, "Yeah.. Yeah yeah.. meet back RIGHT here right at the peak of night, then will explain the Job... And the reward." Jothen would respond to the hooded man saying "Alright." Jothen would try not to sound startled because it was close to the same place my Mother was killed, as I was leaving he would then grab my arm and whisper in my ear "Bring a sword..." Then he would rush off within a split second. Jothen would then rush back to the house bringing the good news to his Dad when he got home he opened the door and came rushing inside, but... No one was there... Jothen then called out for my dad wondering where he went, then he saw a note saying "If you care about your family, you /will/ come to the meeting spot.. Don't do anything you will regret." He would stare at the note in shock wondering what just happened, he would then rush outside looking for his dad but there was no sign of him, his heart would then start to race as he would try to calm myself down, he would then rush over to the corner of the room grabbing his sword and sitting down not knowing what to do, Jothen would then mutter to himself, "come on! Don't be scared he is still alive and they will not hurt him as long as I do what they say." As he would think to himself the time would fly by. It was starting to get dark outside, he then rushed outside slamming the door and sprinting back to the meeting spot. When he gets to the meeting spot he dose not see anyone but a shaded figure in the dark and said to him, "Good, you are not late... It would be a shame if you were late.." He would then scream out, "where is my father!?" Then A shaded voice came out from nowhere and it said, "who says we have him? Heheh..." Jothen then screamed out "give him back, I know you have him! !" then the shaded voice again spoke saying, "silence! You will speak only when spoken too!" A halfling would then rush up behind him and attempt to him him with what looked to be like a battle shovel , he tried to turn around but was not fast enough and was hit in the back of the head and is now unconscious, they would then blindfold him and the person with the spade mutters, "good night... sleep tight.." they would then drag Jothen into a warehouse and set him in a cage (Two hours later) Jothen would start to wake up, he would slowly open one eye and he wondered why he was in a cage then all of a sudden he felt a massive amount of pain at the back of his head so he would instantly grab the back of his head and scream in pain as he would start to tear up. He would then hear a voice come out of nowhere, "are you ready?" Jothen would look around and mutter, "ready for wha-?" then the cage drops into a darken area then it would split open like a box and he would be free, Jothen would then scream out "where am I?!" But he would no one responded, but then lights flickered on, one by one until the room was bright enough that he could see where he was walking. He then stumbled along a sword, he wondered why it was just sitting there, he would then bend over and look at the sword for a second before picking it up, then out of nowhere he heard growling, he could not really make out what animal it was, so he was hold his sword in his right hand and look around, then in a split second a Wolf pounced onto him from his left side, he still has the sword in his hand but it would be hard for him to stab the Wolf, so he would elbow the Wolf in the nose and stumble to get back on his feet, when he finally was up he then saw that the Wolf was gone, then the he heard a voice come from the shadows, "Don't speak unless told to!" Jothen would then take a deep breath as he had looked death in the eyes, then another voice came up saying, "If you want to live... Follow the torches, or we can always sell you into slavery hehehe.. The black market loves fresh meat..." Then in a split second the room went into complete darkness, but there was one light about 30 ft away from him, he would then slowly walk towards the light as he would ready his sword, when he would get close, the light would go out and another light would pop up it was about 50 ft away this time he could see a figure in the distance, it looked like it was on its knees, he would then slowly make his way up to it, clenching his sword also shaking as he was extremely scared, as he was about 10 ft away, he saw it was human and the body was shaking, the voice would then come up again, "if you want to live, stab that creature in the chest! Think of it as, trading a life for a life..." Jothen was scared, he did not know how to react to this situation, he then would ready his sword in a stabbing formation, and would puncture into the chest of the human, but then he would take off the mask of the hostage... He then found out this it was his dad... With his dads last dying breath he said, "I...I-it's o..okay w-w-we all.. make mistakes.. *coughs out blood* I... I love you.." his dad would then be kneeing with his arms bound to two stakes in the ground with blood gushing out of his chest, Jothen would be speachless and we would start crying and sobbing as he would then feel a sharp spear enter his chest.... He would then hear voices in his head saying "Jothen... Jothen? Are you okay buddy? Jothen!" He would then wake up it was really dark, but he saw that he was in his house again and he look to see his dad trying to wake him up, "Jothen, you okay? You looked like you were having a nightmare." Jothen then replied with, "thank the lords! You are alive!" Jothen would then hug his dad, "where is mom?" his dad then started to sound strange, "mother oh, haha she is on her way back home why do you ask?" Jothen immediately replied with "why do you sound so strage? Is mom alright?" then his dad responded with "yes, she is all right... you just never really ask about her." Then they here the door open, Jothen would then rush towards the door to see his mother, "mom! you are home!" Jothen would then rush up to her and give her a hug as he would then say "I love you mom and dad, what is for supper?" They both laughed and and his mother replied with "oatmeal, as always" Jothen then smiled and said to his mother and father, "thank you." His and father would look confused and his father would then say, "for what?" Then Jothen reply with, "being the best parents ever!" And from thereon out they lived a happy-poor life. THE END! Sorry for the cheesy ending I felt pressured by the time limit that I was given.

Other comments/questions: I have a quick question, you know the question "Have you ever roleplayed on another minecraft server before, is so where?" Well, you guys are really one of the ONLY minecraft seriousRP servers and the only times I did RP on a minecraft server was with a group of friends. I also liked the old question better, I felt it was more fitting. "Have you ever Roleplayed before? If so where? (This is what I think, so please do not reply with a rude comment, we each have the right to think what we want to.)
Sorry if I was late to post this, I had a busy day today.
Thank you Crazy Cat Lady for the help on the way through.
