  1. 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?: Silvertread How old are you?: 20 as of writing this. Geez, time flies. Are you aware the server is PG-13 (You won’t be denied for being under 13): I am indeed! Have you read and agreed to the rules?: I have. What’s the rule you agree with the most?: Frankly, all of the rules covering harassment and the ruining of others’ RP. We’re all here to enjoy ourselves, let’s not ruin the fun for someone else- you wouldn’t want the same to happen to you. 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.) None! How did you find out about Lord of the Craft? From a friend, Bowduim. We were discussing how we used to rp a lot through Minecraft in a skype call, and he mentioned this server. 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?: A form of impromptu theater and storytelling, using characters often created in advance, with a linear and continuing storyline. What is metagaming?: The use of OOC (Out Of Character)-gathered information In Character, when your character would have no way of knowing the information In Character. What is powergaming?: The performing of Overpowered actions, creating a character with unreasonable amounts of skills, and forcing actions upon other players, such as auto-hitting or auto-dodging. 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: Johann ‘Long John’ Stahlmann-Nacht Character’s sex: Male. Character’s race: Human (Heartlander). Character’s age: 31 Winters. 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.): Johann Stahlman-Nacht was born, roughly 31 winters ago, in the undeniably Human city of Petrus as third son to Margot and Steyn Stahlmann-Nacht. Always out on the streets in search for adventure he spent more time on the cobbles than under a roof; much to the dismay of his parents whose elder sons were both eager learners, apprenticed to some of the city’s most skilled craftsmen. His parents were not rich, not by far, but scraped together what they had to afford him an apprenticeship from one of the city’s street physicians when he turned fourteen, sending him off to live with the man in the naval city of Port Vydrik as soon as the apprenticeship was agreed upon. There, he quickly found himself fascinated by the craft, although he had to learn most of his knowledge from hands-on lessons rather than books or teachers as the street-corner physician was both an alcoholic and an extremely lazy man, sleazing off whenever he had the opportunity. By his own 17th day of birth, Johann had taken over most of the work within the physician’s business, and had amassed quite some skill in surgery despite the incompetence of his tutor. Tired of a meager pay whilst he himself did most of the work, he spoke out against the physician. Soon after, he and his few things were kicked back onto the cobbles. With his return to the cobbles came another call from his youth: adventure. Alone and still wet from the rain on the cold streets, he pawned his few things to a broker and turned to the one thing he was taught to do: surgery. He signed up on tired legs with the motley crew of the trade galleon Golden Wind as their surgeon and cook. In the following fourteen years, he learned three things: that he hated the open ocean, that strong alcohol was the best remedy for any ailment (except seasickness, much to his own dismay- swearing worked best against that), and that he thoroughly enjoyed his job. Coming to these realisations, he saved whatever coin he could and joined the first ship back to his homeland. So it was, that after fourteen years, he set foot on the stone cobbles of Port Vydrik once again, this time prepared for anything. Personality Traits: Often darkly mooded and with an affinity for curses and alcohols, Johann can easily be mistaken for an unfriendly man, however he is far from that once you gain his trust. From that moment onwards, he will act brotherly towards you, however he can still seem distant at times, having seen a lot of hardship in his life. Johann does not care for politics or fancyfolk, and will strongly appreciate those that agree with him in his no-nonsense policy. He prefers it when those he talks to do not hide their motives, and are honest about themselves. “Lies don’t get you anywhere but the grave.” He also reinforces this in his practices: he is brutally honest about his treatments. Because of this disposition, he is strongly suspicious of High Elves, having found that they always have several more motives beside the one that seems apparent. Ambitions: To find work, a home, and perhaps eventually even be able to live out his days in peace. However, he is not shy of adventure and adrenaline. Strengths/Talents: Skilled Surgeon Steady Hands & Feet Clever Weaknesses/Inabilities: Alcoholic Gambling Addict Sailor’s Vocabulary A Practical Man Short Appearance (List the extra details of your characters appearance, IE; height & weight): Appearance, please provide us a screenshot of your character’s skin (If you need help, see our screenshot guide here): Easily recognisable by his bushy black beard and equally messy hairdo, Johann has the look of a weathered sailor. However, this could not be further from the truth, as he carries a slight spring in his step and his deep green eyes are full of life and lust for adventure. Often times, he can be seen wearing a long vest made from calfskin dyed red, his most prized possession. Under this, he wears a simple shirt, once perhaps white but stained with age, and a pair of simple brown trousers adorned with a leather belt equally weathered to his appearance, matched by a pair of leather boots and simple gloves.

      You don't even have to play the character you apply with - that's just so we know you understand the server! A friend of mine stopped playing her application character after less than a day, and just switched to an entirely new one. Don't worry about it, you can make a throwaway character to apply.

      Thanks a lot for the help! :D The major issue for me was to come up with an interesting backstory for my character, which I'm finally getting around to writing. I should have my app up before the end of the day!

      Or, y'know, two months later because I completely forgot to post the application.

  3. The walls of the Temple shook, layer upon layer of rugged stone and mortar trembling under the unrelenting assault of the warp-storm. The priest stepped forward, the senses of his cloth-wrapped feet aflame from the rubble-covered floor, and laid the huge tome on a table covered in rock-dust, a single candleflame flickering as he cleared his throat. Another tremble rumbled through the Temple, sending it's bookshelves toppling from the walls. The priest did not care, even as aeons of knowledge were crushed under rubble and dust all around him. With a shaking hand, he cleared the leather binding of the tome before him of grey powder. "Server lore..." He mumbled, the words sending a shiver of terror down his spine. "Where do I begin..."

      Thanks!  I was wondering something, actually: how does magic work on this server, and is it possible to start out a character with some knowledge of how to wield it, or would that character need to learn it IC?

      Magic is a bit of something outside my comfort zone. Theres Dark Arts and there is Arcane, kinda like bad and good. You'll have to read up on each magic yourself, because Im kinda rubbish at explaining it XD. Also yes, you need to learn it ICly, your char can't have any knowledge of how to use magic when you apply.
