What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: CyanTortoise
How old are you?: 19
Are you aware the server is PG-13 (You won’t be denied for being under 13): Mhm.
Have you applied to this server before? (Please link all past applications): No.
Have you read and agreed to the rules?: Yes.
What’s the rule you agree with the most?: I like the limitation on impossible structures, as it makes the game feel more 'real.' Usually, when such things are created for the sake of ease and efficiency, it can break immersion and upset the ability to roleplay.
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): Just to clarify, once my character has died in battle, he loses all memory of everything after and including the initiation of the fight?
How did you find out about Lord of the Craft? Just browsing Google.

What is metagaming?: Using outside knowledge as the player to influence the in-game actions of the character.
What is powergaming?: In short, cheating. It is the exploitation of the character's in-game world in order to do things that go against the conventional rules of the game.

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.):
Bazg was born in the heart of war. His tribe at the time, small as it was, was raided by a neighboring, stronger tribe. His father was cut down and beheaded, and his mother was captured for use as a potential mate. Bazg himself would be taken in by a surrogate mother within the raiding tribe and raised as a natural member, to further bolster the ranks of the clan. As he grew older, he was often forced into conflicts with other captured children, in order to cull the weak from the pack. At this, Bazg became exceedingly successful. However, the elders of the tribe began to notice that, although Bazg fought with all the ferocity and savagery of any typical Orc, he did so silently, without the characteristic challenges and screams of rage. Disturbed and intrigued by this interesting characteristic, the elders branded the boy with the sigil of the Undead, to mark him as unnatural and otherworldly.
From that point on, Bazg became, even more so, a pariah of the tribe. Forced to live on the outskirts of the settlement, he was nevertheless left alone by those who feared his superstitious moniker. Eventually, whispers and rumors of the ill-luck of the boy made their way to the ears of the elders. Desiring an end to such evil, they made their way to the boy’s resting place, to destroy what they had created. They were too late. Only a sudden, far-off, haunting scream of rage alerted them to Bazg’s location. He had found his surrogate mother and father, and caved in their heads while they were sleeping, finally releasing his unforgotten rage in a howl of unnatural fury. By the time the elders had reached the lodge of Bazg’s surrogates, he had disappeared into the desert, leaving only the mark of the Undead carved into the wall of his former home.
Personality Traits:Bazg remains, as his background suggests, uncharacteristically silent and brooding for an Orc. Nevertheless, he retains an undying ember of rage, which can spark an intense and frightening berserker rage when provoked. His general demeanor is one of cold disdain, as he holds both Orcs and other races in mistrust. In short, Bazg suffers from a primitive from of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Ambitions: What Bazg truly wants, whether he realizes it or not, is a family. He has been cast out and hated by all who would normally be called his brethren. However, in his anger, he pushes down this desire in favor of martial skill, desiring to be the best at combat so as to never have to worry about betrayal or enemies ever again.
Strengths/Talents: As stated previously, Bazg is known for being unnervingly quiet during combat. This gives him a slight, if short lived, edge for stealth, though his height and aggressive style usually alert the enemy beforehand. He is cunning, of sorts, with a survivor's desire to live and win. His detached nature leaves him cold and calculative, gifting him with a mind for stagey should he ever explore that option.
Weaknesses/Inabilities: Bazg, though less prone to the Berserker Rage than his brethren, experiences a much more wild and explosive kind when provoked. His Rage takes control, and he is unable to gain a level head without either completely eliminating any surrounding threats, or through continuous, calm urging. This Rage can trigger even out of combat, as long as some memory or feeling of the past is provoked in some way.
