Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:

Ghosts are a copied image of the previous life as a mortal. Most dead bodies will not turn into a ghost and have a mirror image of the soul if they have not died in an unnatural or brutal way. If you died from natural cause, chances of becoming a ghost will be very slim. An example in which you might become a ghost is if you were brutally stabbed many times and then your head is proceeded to be chopped and hanged up on a wall or tree to show shame and used as a prop to show fear. As a ghost, there are three stages. Each will be explained. These stages are haunt, revenant and poltergeist or spectre.

Let us start with haunt. Haunt are the first stage of ghosts, these ghosts have no natural powers and are willingly the weakest of the ghosts. They do not realise they are dead, and have forgotten the death. They will go on to the daily tasks which are done as they use to be in the mortal body and will have hallucinations of doing things when they cannot actually touch the mortal realm or reality itself. So, I will give a pre made example. You can imagine a guard. He may go on to guarding in his daily life and making sure things are in order. He will try and communicate with people and will think they are communicating when it is just a hallucination. This is an example. Most haunts look depicted with black and white. Now, the second stage is Revenant. Revenant are ghosts which have found out they are dead with solid proof or evidence as a haunt. Example, you are going on with your daily life and you find your body or you find your grave. They might be confused and deny it and make an excuse, but eventually will learn they are dead. This will mostly get the ghost upset and angry and will help you get in touch with the world. This is normally when the delusion has broken up. This means, as you are old enough and master these powers, you can do so. These powers are going visible and invisible at will, changing appearance or forms and are able to appear to be floating. These revenants mostly appear blue. Now, from here on you are able to either become a poltergeist or a spectre. Let us start with Poltergeist. Poltergeist are ghost that have stirred up enough hatred and anger and will be very violent. Most of the poltergeist look with a very strong red colour, ashy appearance or completely black eyes. They will normally haunt a specific person and bring bad luck to them, suicide thoughts and so on. (All ghosts can do this, but some like poltergeist can bring bad luck). They will be able to psychically harm you, such as giving humans scratches or throwing objects and so on. They are very aggressive and will probably dealt with caution. Spectre are ghosts that have calmed down and accepted death and will attempt to go to the afterlife by using mortal help. Most of these are peaceful and will be shy and non violent. You will barely be able to see one of them provoke someone for no reason unless they are provoked. Spectre have a look of luminous blue colour. In general, ghosts do not communicate with others  and are mostly independent thus they do not have a leader. This is what ghosts are and how they react. 

Ghosts can't actually die, but they do have weaknesses. One of the weaknesses are bright light and magegold. These objects or substances can drive out any unwanted ghosts. In the case of banishing a ghost to the afterlife, they can call a Cleric or Shaman and completely banish them forever. (NOTE -: This is banishment, they aren't killed as they are already dead). These are some weaknesses, for spectrals in general, light magic can also be something to harm any spectral being or used to drive them off.

Ghost also have some red lines, following are that. -:

They cannot cross any gold barriers. Ghosts can float, but they do not fly around. Ghost cannot control or posses a living object or person/animal. They can only use ghost magic, and they cannot use fire or any other type of magic. Once the person is dead, they are dead and IF they become a ghost they cannot be revived or become alive once more. Failing to do any of this is not following the ghost lore and you must follow it.

(I would like to apologies for any grammar mistakes, my English isn't very good as it is not my first language but I can manage).
Do you have a magic(s) you are dropping due to this app? If so, link it: Nope.

Have you applied for this creature on this character before, and had it denied? If so, link the app: Nope.

BONUS QUESTION - Why do you wish to escape being haunt and start as revenant? -

I would like to skip being a haunt as it seems boring and I like interesting role play. Not saying it isn’t interesting but I do not like the way of going on with my normal life and role playing with no one  as I have no physical touch with the world. Being a revenant will give me some powers and ability to be touch with the world as I break delusion. Now, a role play reason would be seeing my body in a near by lake as it flows through the rivers at Sutica. (Killed by Thain for this or TheElvenMage thx bb).

I understand I died currently, and I died for my own options. If you can, postpone this application until a week has gone by and I can be patient and wait.

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?: XOXP

How old are you?: 14

What timezone are you in?: BST. (I live in London). 

Are you aware the server is PG-13 (You won’t be denied for being under 13): I am 14, I also have parental permission. (My parents are big fan of LOTR).

Have you read and agreed to the rules?: I have, obviously, read all the rules and to make sure I skimmed through it the second time so it is clear. The rules are mostly common sense and everything every person should abide to. I do not recommend anyone to break the rules.

What’s the rule you agree with the most?: No hostile or toxic behaviour. I do not agree to this rule as it is the first in the General Rule, it is due to something which has affected me in the past. Being rude or toxic towards someone for either something OOC or for something IC and bringing it OOC is wrong in many ways and is in a way bullying. OOC and IC are contrasting and should not be known to be the same.

Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense? (if so we can help clear it up!): I am clear with all the rules and I have made sure to read all the section, even if it is boring. I do not wish to be banned once (or if) getting whitelisted.

How did you find out about Lord of the Craft?: I watch youtube a lot, like.. a lot! Eventually, I started to watch Lord Of The Rings and read a bit of the book. (Only read partially one of the book). Eventually, I found the minecraft version recently and didn’t have the courage to do so. (I also am skilled in another role play server, but it got boring thus I wished for a change). 

Link(s) to past Whitelist Applications (If applicable): This is my first and hopefully last application.

Have you logged into the server yet? (You cannot be whitelisted without logging in at least once): I have logged on twice, just in case you know.

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! Plagiarizing will result in the automatic denial  of your application!

What is roleplaying?: Roleplaying is taking in a character and acting it out. Mostly it is a fantasy and isn’t considered to be real. It can, in some cases, be different from how or what you do in your normal lives and it is pretty fun. You can take up being a knight, a king or a dark mage. You can literally go on to be whatever you want. (However, server have limits).

What is metagaming?: Meta gaming is using out of character information to have more of a chance in character. Example, you found out that there will be a rebellion out of character. You use that knowledge in character to kill those who will rebel when not knowing it IC. Also, some times it is very small, but people say others names when they have not been introduced and thus it is meta gaming.

What is power-emoting (powergaming)?: Power gaming is doing something others cannot do or if others do not have a fair chance. Example, being able to read someones mind and force them to do whatever you say when they don’t wish to. Also, if you go on to *stabs in heart and cuts neck* without giving the person a fair chance to defend himself. That is where the /roll command comes in a good way. Example, *ATTEMPTS to stab John* (you then roll a 10, and the person who you are stabbing counters and rolls a 20. You loose and the person can defend himself and counter the attack.). 

In-Character Information

Biography  (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add three references to the server lore.): (where does your character come from?; where have they traveled to?; what year were they born in? et cetera.)

You might be thinking, El’Drask is a weird name for a human, he would think opposite. Being born on 1559 in Courland, where his mother and father cuddled up together in the small house they were able to afford. This family looked like no other family which would have massacre and war. His farther fought in the Orenian Empire at the crushing victory against Urgan. Telling El’Drask this story, it didn’t end very bleak as once trying to occupy the dwarven fort Khro’Noogak they had retreated. It was amusing at the same time but it was something he was proud of. Proud of? Proud that they lost? No, he was proud of his father for risking his life in such war. After all, a retirement for him was good enough. This gave him the start of an ambition, to be a swordsman or knight fighting for the lands of Courland and the Orenian Empire making his family proud. When his parents weren’t looking, he would go out with his friends fighting with small sticks found in a big branch tree. The birds liked to carry along there and rest, as they tweeted a small rhyme. He wasn’t strong, but he would act strong. For him, his goals were more than he wished to happen. Eventually, his farther put down his dreams as he knew it would not be possible and tried to introduce him to something else. Many things, farming.. learning how to ride a horse and so on. His farther was scared, scared of loosing him. He eventually put an end to this nonsense, and he grew up to not be the warrior he wished to be. He still had friends, many who gave up dreams long ago. He did the same. What happened in the end? He became a travelling merchant! He would not sell much, only would go from Felsen to Courland. It was decent and he had a living to make up to, even if it wasn’t much. All he would sell is some clothes, scrap and other shite. He was able to once make a food stand and be a butcher with his uncle at Felsen, but he gave up that very quickly.

His story seems boring, from a young boy trying to achieve high to someone who became a travelling merchant. He still is, but something happened.. something wrong.. He hadn’t really been further than Felsen, so he travelled past it on a very.. very.. long journey. Where did he end up at? Istria. Istria seemed like a normal place, not very surprising. He got into a deal, a deal with a figure in the corner. Following him, into a small deep alley way within the market stalls. The sound was loud and there was a big crowd. Once arriving at the end, guess who it is? Something trying to mug him. He brought his stuff, and all he had is a few silver. He was petrified of what might happen to him. He tried to make a deal, but that is when he had those dreams.. He never really had a true fight. You might think this is going cliche, guess wrong. The mugger tried to tackle him, and as they both fell he was knocked out unconscious. Waking up, his big patch had been destroyed and his stall had been broken. From then on, he had witnessed reality. The realm around him isn’t as it seems. He had decided to go back to Fensen and only make short trips from Courland to Fensen. This is the story of the travelling merchant.

Personality Traits: (what are your character's quirks?; habits?; likes and dislikes?) Always holds both his hands together. Decent swordsman and likes fishing. Dislikes going out on rainy days.

Ambitions: (what does your character aspire to be?) A knight or a soldier.

Strengths/Talents: (what is your character really, really good at?) He is able to persuade people to do things. Example, persuading people to buy his items when they’re at his stall.

Weaknesses/Inabilities: (what is a skill that your character needs to work on?) Running and doing chores for others.

Appearance: (what does your character look like?; how tall are they?; hair color?; scars?) Brown hair, pale skin, blue and grey shirt, no scars and green eyes. 

Skin: (please provide us a screenshot of your character’s skin; if you need help, see our screenshot guide here.)
