What’s your Minecraft account name?: tannaku How old are you?: 18 Are you aware the server is PG-13: Yes Have you read and agreed to the rules?: Yes What’s the rule you agree with the most?: No metagaming and powergaming, because without it can roleplay is easily ruined. And I need to work on the minor infractions. Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense?: Nope; thanks! How did you find out about Lord of the Craft?: Conversations with former friends who couldn’t get past your whitelist (two are unrelated). Link(s) to past Whitelist Applications (If applicable): You got me. Definitions What is roleplaying?: The main type of interaction in LotC where users create a character and play through a story that responds to current global and character lore. The player has to live through the character they have created whenever in-game. What is metagaming?: Using outside or out-of-character information to influence in-game decisions, when realistically your character would have no knowledge of said information. Some offenses are worse than others, like knowing people’s names before being told versus 21st Century Paul Revere on TS. What is power-emoting (powergaming)?: Either raising your power level to over 9000, or failing to give other players the ability to respond to your roleplay actions, which throws fairness out the window. Along with Jeremy’s neck. :P In-Character Information Character’s name: Minerva Hampton Character’s sex: Female Character’s race: Human Heartlander Character’s age: 23 Biography: Time was never invented. Olivier de Savoie died in 1523 because time was never invented by men. I was delivered in The Year of No Sun, or otherwise 1524. It was funny, really, because without the sun no one knew what time it was. People ate, drank, beat their wives, and slept (probably in that order) at different times of the day or night (if there really was a difference between them at that point), and for my first year the world shoveled ash along with the snow. Everyone looked up as if there was something to see. No one was in control. In 1526 the plague hit the land like a curse and the world like always was a trying house of cards. Guy de Bar was dethroned by John Frederick Horen. I remember as a child seeing the grand ships of Courland surge into port, where their goods would be unloaded by strong men with strong backs, and sold on the market for profits that would go to powerful men who controlled armies and taxes. But then the storms would come, and I would see the ships get dashed against the rocks, as in control as a fool riding a saddled swine. I would see my mother beaten when ships crashed or the taxes got raised, maybe even lowered, and I was told to hold my tongue. I wrote it all down instead. My childhood was unremarkable, as I had too many books and no control over my surroundings. By 1540 I moved out of my parent’s house and set out in the world to find that foothold. I had read books. I had knowledge. I could bridge the gap between man and nature and forge dominance into something eternal. Surely... something indefinite, unable to be destroyed or altered, contested or otherwise challenged; that was the ultimate form of control. What men or money or disease or ash or death cannot change I will create. And they will know I rule. Personality Traits: Minerva is observant, ambitious, smart (sometimes arrogant), obsessed, and overly passionate. Ambitions: Minerva wants to manipulate eternity through X, thought to be the ultimate form of control over men (meaning humanity, but she has a grudge also) and nature. Strengths/Talents: Minerva excels at writing and functional design, is aspiring in architecture and potion-crafting. She is adept at exploring and theorizing. Weaknesses/Inabilities: Minerva is bad at killing things and can hardly fight with conventional weapons. Appearance: Minerva stands at average height with good posture. She has purple hair and eyes, sporting drab black pants and dirty shirt with red suspenders. Skin: http://i.imgur.com/4EKievK.png[/img]

Very cool!

I wish I could give you a rep for that but I'm all out for today, lol!

Really liking some of the stuff so far, but I'd love more details! I haven't been here long, so I really wanna know how it *felt* when it happened!

Could you explain more? Why was he thrown out of his seat? What made him 'de Menace'? You have aroused my curiosity!

What are your favorite Moments from LotC? Action sequences, dialogues... what made them so great and do they still hold out today? Share below!

Hey everyone! I'll keep it short: I'm just a person trying to live life and have fun. I want to develop and learn how to express myself, and I feel like I can do that here. I've already looked well around to know I'd like to stay, so you all are stuck with me whether you like it or not! ;p Who are you all?

Imartia Basic Information Age: 88 years Gender: Neutral Race: Dark Elf Status: Living, no titles Description Height: 6 feet Weight: 135 pounds Body Type: slender, average Eyes: violet Hair: gray-blue, black Skin: grey-violet Health: damage to memory centers, stiff in the joints Personality: reserved, passionate, brave, loyal, conflicted (that's the 'alignment' trump card) Life Style Alignment: chaotic neutral, determined usually by current loyalties Job/Class: vagrant Special Skill(s): able to read and develop circuits Flaw(s): difficulty with long-term memory, prideful, non-conciliatory (personally) Fighting Style: sword, duelist History (the abridged version) Abandoned as a pup, he was found by Muriel, who lived in the Middle of Nowhere, with her husband, Eustace Bagge--just kidding! Kidding, kidding, it was only a joke, now put that knife away.... Proper pronouns are they/them/their. Imartia--if that's really their birthname, who really knows--was a servant to the Haelun'or who found out too much about the rebellion about to take place and was seduced into biting in to a golden apple by an enemy agent. Unfortunately, Imartia was just one of those few it affects, and so their memory was lost and they slept for about 50 or so years somehow making it to the Cloud Temple in Vailor. So maybe not unfortunately. That actually seems like pretty good luck to me. And the fact that even though their clothes were eaten up pretty bad, they are still not revealing! Now all that's left to do is figure out what comes next.

Out-Of-Character Information 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?: grimmeral How old are you?: 17 Are you aware the server is PG-13 (You won’t be denied for being under 13): Yes Have you read and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I have What’s the rule you agree with the most?: I agree with the rule against cyber-bullying and discrimination. I think it is noble to promote civil internet interactions here. 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): In terms of pedophilia, necro, etc: can a character possess these flaws and can these acts be implied to have happened without the acts ever having been RP'd? Or are the subjects entirely off limits in every way? For instance, if you were indicting someone who was actually innocent and wanted to arouse mob justice could you accuse the character of these things or do you have to find something else to accuse them for? How did you find out about Lord of the Craft? minecraftservers.org Definitions Feel free to Google the answers or browse our forums, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not those of another website or person! What is roleplaying?: Using a persona to create action in a narrative context. To me roleplay is about making interesting events happen for everyone, not something only you like. What is metagaming?: Using knowledge gained out of character to influence RP actions. Like reading someone’s application without meeting their character and then greeting them by name. What is powergaming?: Assuming absolute influence over a situation or not letting other characters affect your actions or their outcomes. It is to say what you do is absolute and perfectly executed with no chance of failure or apprehension. In-Character Information Now you actually make your character - be creative but stay reasonable! Make sure they make sense and that they follow lore. Try to come up with a character that you actually want to play. Character’s name: Imartia Character’s sex: Neutral Character’s race: Dark Elf Character’s age: 88 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.): “Take a bite,” he’d said, leaning in close with the apple in hand, poised just in front of their mouth, a dimple of light reflecting off its shiny golden surface. The surrounding air began to grow hot. It was not supposed to be like this; a servant’s royal duty forbid that, commanded virtue. The Silver Enclave had already given them a chance despite the darker skin tone. If anyone found out this would be a serious betrayal to the Haelun'or which Imartia swore their heart to. But he continued on with a convincing touch, until no thoughts could be formed and memories supplied to fight against it. Imartia bit into the apple. It was a 50/50 shot, to be sure, but it had worked--the now sleeping body slumped to the floor. The wood elves would thank him for this necessary evil. Rebellion would come soon but not soon enough to recover from the information this one had come to acquire--if they had been able to deliver it. So it was nothing after all. The future now seemed secure, and perhaps he would even be selected for the new position that had opened up in the last few minutes. Infiltration would be made much easier with that convenience. He thanked the Gods no violence was necessary and spent the night arranging transportation to move the poor soul somewhere safe out of the state. Imartia slept in a dreamless sleep spellbound by the effects of the golden apple. It no longer mattered: the journey from Thales to Athera and the servant’s education in strict schools almost from birth. Friendships, animosities, successes, failures--they all seemed to have melted away and given to slumber. When Imartia awoke, it was at the Cloud Temple in Vailor, many years later. The monks in Athera had upon receiving the body acted as if it was dead. For years Imartia laid in a tomb. When the Isles of Vailor were chartered and the new Cloud Temple was constructed Imartia was received in the same varnished black box, unchanged except for the slight decomposition of clothing. After a couple decades in silence Imartia finally woke up without any memory, but that would have been expected. They were whispered their name, and were left to stumble out of the temple and into the golden sunlight’s gaze. [For the record no sex happened because I know that’s against the rules--but there was some PG-13 PDA goin’ on in whatever corner that was.] Personality Traits: reserved, passionate, curious, loyal, conflicted, sentimental, innovative Ambitions: discover life in an unknown place, gain a position of service once again (natural ambition, although no memory of past dealings) Strengths/Talents: good chance of being able to calm someone down, duelist with high potential, unable to be intimidated in most cases, thoughtful judge, can read, able to develop circuitry Weaknesses/Inabilities: gets sick from eating meats, can’t remember hardly anything, difficulty remembering new facts and names after so long, highly susceptible to all effects of magic and potions Appearance (List the extra details of your characters appearance, IE; height & weight): Height: 6’ Weight: 135 pounds Skin: grayish-purple Eyes: violet eyes Face: slender features and smooth skin, mostly androgynous, medium-length black hair covering ears Clothing: a ruined burial uniform mixed with old servant’s garments, half-eaten by moths, but still decent, black hat Stature: small frame, stands straight most of the time with formal composure Appearance, please provide us a screenshot of your character’s skin (If you need help, see our screenshot guide here):
