Do you hold any other staff positions?
No.

Why do you want to be a builder for the ET?
I've seen all the calls for people to join up the ET, especially as builders. I decided why not. I'm on a lot, and could do better with my free time on the server than grind mining.
-
What are some of your most treasured builds (screenshots if possible)?
Lots and lots of interiors. Lounges, ballrooms, kitchens, dining halls, bedrooms, ritual chambers, prisons. Here's an album, the builds I still have at hand have both TP and vanilla screenshots.
I also aim to optimise the lights in my builds. The goal is to have them fairly visible and non-obstructing on bright, while atmospheric and realistic on moody. There's a comparison pair of pics close to the bottom, and you may notice the lights optimised for my underground build.
I'm also using a material palette that doesn't take away much from the vanilla look of builds, but allows players to have conquest TP on without any out-of-place colours or blocks.
-
What MMORPG/video games do you play?
Used to play WoW and SWTOR. I'm one of those "BC WAS BEST EXPANSION" people. Other than those, a large amount of classics (HOMM 3, Civ 4, Diablo II, TES3/TES4, UT2004). And there's the good sprinkle of total war games and Paradox strategy games.
- Pick three of the following building styles, and show us a build, of yours, that corresponds to each choice: terraforming, organic, medieval, high fantasy, underground.
High Fantasy:

Medieval:
http://imgur.com/a/DPelZ - Compact medieval peasant hut with basement, ground floor and first floor.
Underground:
http://imgur.com/a/FQIw0 - Iblees cultists set up a place of worship in an abandoned wine cellar.
-
Are you an independent builder, and are you capable of handling all aspects of a build?
I consider myself as one, yes. But from all aspects, I'd obviously prefer doing interior work.
-
Do you know much about redstone?
I'm an archaic redstone user, learned its usage mid-2011. I can build coded locks, memories, pre-programmer circuits, but I may make them gross and large since I seldom use the more recent redstone parts.
-
How long does it take for you to complete a build?
Depends on size and whatsoever. I can finish up a regular sized interior within minutes though, I tend to build pretty fast. The underground build submission was completed in an hour.
-
Additional details (Do you know how to Voxel, World Edit, Craftbook, etc...):
I've used voxel before, but forgot everything about it. I've been using WE since 2011, including brushes. I could use some renewal to my craftbook knowledge, since the last time I actively used it was in 2014. I know worldguard.
-
Tell me a trick about building (eg: floating torches, custom heads):
1. Place an armour stand
2. Put on special player head on the stand
3. Replace bottom block where the armour stand is with solid block
4. Replace top block where the armour stand is with glass block
5. You have your nice and lovely display case.
+. Experiment around with replacing the block beneath the stand with a slab. Can put the head on different levels.
- Tell me a joke!
The animal dictatorship decides to hold a joke contest in the middle of the forest. They assemble a hundred-soul audience, and set the rules so: if all members of the audience laugh, the winner and king of humour is declared. If at least one doesn't, the one who told the joke is shot.
First to take the stage is the rabbit. He walks up, clears his throat then tells a fairly good knock-knock joke. Around half the audience laugh, so the organisers pat his back, take him away and shoot him. Next up is the fox, who tells one of the best jokes ever to be told, making all but one members of the audience laugh. The organisers say sorry to the fox, who's taken away to be shot.
After him comes the lion. He enters the stage snorting, and tells a terrible joke that leaves nobody laughing but the giraffe. The organisers turn towards the tall animal with perked brows.
"Why the hell are you laughing at this?"
"Hahaha, I finally got the fox's joke!"
*Note: The plagiarism of builds will result in immediate removal from the team, and a prompt ban thereafter.

Z3m is one of the Dwarven roleplayers with the goal to settle down and introduce newcomers to RP. If he is able to provide the same enthusiasm to all whose applications he handles, then that's a big +1.
Another +1 because he's Aussie and is active during the times the least AT are around.

I agree with both sides. Annoying, but shouldn't afk.
HOWEVER.
There's is one bloody capital that's completely underground and we can't even have simple RP without someone watching our back with gear every minute for the cascading monsters.

Compared to when I arrived here, the server's definitely doing better.
But that's a comparison between May and October, which is pretty much irrelevant.

Didn't receive an answer since, but I reckon it's unneeded as well. The proposal was made when the church/knights were on a rise in activity/recruitment, it's been more than a month and activity has been diminishing, myself included.
Feel free to move this to denied / archive it.

KorCo™ offers 45 Alchemist's shears for 650 minae, or 16 minae per individual one if the desired order is smaller.

Where did she belong, if not with elves?
Koralon walked pasted the two houses in Urguan where the around thirty Elgus lived. She passed a faint smile, knowing there probably is place for more, in the pantry or on top of the cupboard.

How would you dispense them? There's just so many ways to distribute them and even if all the little circlejerks get their own tome of power, there'll be arguing about whether staff were just with the allocation of certain tomes.

Still no way to make your own account on the wiki, as far as I saw ;p

Tables o'Magic
Enchantment tables on order! Only minae paid, no materials required!
Two years ago after carving thousands of headstones, I discovered something. If I boil a bucket of lava long enough and pour slag in it, it'll harden into a stone I can carve and adorn with diamonds. And if done correctly, the stone will have a unique ability: pile up a bunch of shiny gems on its top, smack it with a book and your sheets of paper will start glowing with magic!
Are you magically capable? Buy a KorCo™ enchantment table!
Brewing stands

Thanhium Studs
Thanhium studs on order. Only minae paid, no materials required!
For far too long have mages preyed upon the strong & courageous folk of these lands. Knowledge of science however will always remain superior to the knowledge of magica! After numerous experiments I devised a design for studs you can attach to your armour with almost no discomfort or dangers (SEE APPENDIX FOR SAFETY GUIDE! DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY MAY OCCUR). One stud is able to dampen the strongest of spells, and even nullify weaker ones! A couple of studs, even better!
Evil spells turn into mud when you wear Koralon's thanhium stud!

Your legs can nay longer carry your weight? Frent not and order a KorCo™ railway!
Empty runes
Empty runes crafted on order!***
*I'm a terrible procrastinator when it comes to skins. If you request a skin that I find interesting or challenging to make, I may complete it within the hour's turn. If I happen to be in the mood for skinning, I can complete your order the night you placed it. But if not, I may stretch it for weeks or even just don't do it. As a general guideline, the more minae/resources/promises you bribe me with, the more likely I'll force myself to open up novaskin / paint.net / clipstudio and finish your skin fast.
**Bulk orders are available for items I can obtain myself, and myself alone. EG, tools, horse armour, masonry items, bluesteel, enchantment tables, etc. Some of the popular items that are bound to provided items when bulk ordered:
Daemon steel / Aengul aurum blades - 1 upright staff for each
Black ferrum weapons - 1 windswept staff each
Iron armour - 1 set of leather armour
Diving helmet - 1 iron helmet, or 1 leather helmet
***Some items require materials I can obtain myself in a long, stretched-out period of time. This is mostly blaze rods for jewelcrafting. If there's materials on storage, I can complete an order within an hour or so. If there is none, you may have to wait a day or two.
Terms and Conditions:
GENERAL
I'm a human and I can forget things. This includes the terms and conditions section here, which means that I uphold the right to decide on matters that aren't handled / mentioned in the terms & conditions.
ON NAMED/SIGNED ITEMS
Named items are crafted completely on the staff's whim. This means that it's up to them to refuse the naming/signing of certain items, which I myself will accept as a decision, resulting in failure of completion.
I'm only modrequesting for item naming/signing if the item(s) are crafted from an event item (ET or GM approved item) or gems (flawless / refined ones). This doesn't mean the crafted item has to have some special property.
I'm not modrequesting for bulk-naming of items. Kills the whole point.
Starting from the grandaxe crown, I'm logging / documenting all named items (names & descriptions) for reference. All items crafted by Kor are branded by her (not mentioned on item but marked IRP).
If you order something crafted from an event item (ET or GM approved item) that has special qualities, you'll have to wait until a GM approves / signs the finished item.
ON THE CONDUIT OF TRADE
No trade will be conducted "OOC". If you hire Kor for work, she'll either do it in her private forge, the Iron Honour Smithy, the Doomforge or at a built-out and designated forging/working area you provide IRP. There's no mysterious delivery, you'll either provide a chest to be delivered to and invite Kor, or pick up materials from her personally.
As a rule-of-thumb, payment is handed over first, crafted item is provided second.
Any forum message sent in regards to trade or asking for an appointment will be considered as an IC letter (somewhat alike) sent with the same intentions. The same applies to IG private messages and skype messages.
ON RESPONSIBILITIES
I'm not responsible for any powergaming with items crafted by Kor. I define no lore in regards to any items Koralon crafts. All metals used by her are part of the server lore and are accessible for others. All special items used by her have to be event approved, and any effect transplanted to the finished product will be no different than the material's (sometimes slightly amplified).
Refer to the Thanhium uses lore thread for more detailed information on thanhium studs.
Aengul aurum is the highest-quality slayer steel. Refer to slayer steel lore and aurum properties against dark magic.
Daemon steel is the highest-quality black ferrum, which is a high quality steel alloy. Think of it as high quality steel you could access even in RL.
Detailed list:
Prices are given in terms of material price + cost of labour. Material prices are the negotiable current market prices of resources. Special fees apply to products produced with materials that aren't available on the wider market. All prices are rounded upwards to XXX5 or XXX0. Labour cost is usually 10% of the material price added.
For example, a diamond pick costs 3x diamond + labour cost. Taken that the negotiated price of a diamond is 15 minae, a diamond pick costs 1.1*3*15 =(rounded)= 50.
There'll be a list here if there's a demand for it. For now, it'll remain a short guide on prices and such. A showcase of skins may or may not be added soon as well.
THANHIUM STUD SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
Thanhium overheats as per lore. If a stud absorbs enough magic, it'll melt. With thanhic treated leather, or any decent armour this should work fine. But over-studding an armour can make it cold and brittle, and absorbing too much magic at once gets you burned or worse.

I think we're both right on this one. There were several models. I yield.
Never heard of a model that doesn't have to be primed. Just think of it, spark can't just straight-up lead to the load, since that'd need an opening too large.
Staff could just force people to at least prime their weapons in a one-emote-action. Taking a turn, for the least.

All a flintlock is, is a piece of stone that sparks when grinded against metal. You can make sparks in rain, albeit it'd likely take several tries.
Video for reference, you can even see that the metal covers the exposure hole to the gunpowder to help prevent the powder in the chamber from getting wet.
Nope.avi.
You have to prime a flintlock. It's not steel and flint, it's steel flint and powder in the priming pan.

My honest to God only qualm is you can't carry a loaded bow and crossbow around...the string would eventually stretch rendering the projectile non-fatal. A guns only real issue was when it got wet. Even that was solved with flintlocks because you can still fire a weapon when it's raining as long as the powder itself is dry inside the chamber. So theoretically someone could be carrying around a pistol with a cork in the end and it'd still fire....insta-projectile.
You have to prime a flintlock. You can't just carry it around with fine-ground powder in the pan.

Why not treat technology and its gadgets much like magic? With applications and such. The applicant would have to explain where they obtained the firearm from, with credible sources for that. And make it so that people can be blacklisted from using them as well, if they powergame.
