    How do you wish to work for the wiki?

    My work would mostly follow the flora/creatures section of the wiki, since I have been actively working on it these past few weeks, and would like to add onto more in the coming future.

     

    Have you worked on the Lord of the Craft Wiki, or any wiki before?

    I have been actively working on the flora wiki and quite enjoy reading some of the flora made by players.

     

    Which lore are you most familiar with?

    I am very familiar with the flora wiki, and have been working on a herbal document for new players and old ones to use when doing herbal healing/poison making ect and has shown a lot of interest from the community members, I plan to continue working on the wiki even if I am denied.

     

    Please provide an example of a wiki page you are not satisfied with and list aspects that could be improved

     

    I am unsatisfied with how the flora has mostly gone under appreciated by some of the wiki members, and how they breeze over some of the written work without double checking if players or staff added the correct information needed before posting them to the main flora wiki, some examples would show that players have rushed into completing their flora lore and made the mistake of not properly going through the backbone so you end up with pages that look like this.

    While writing this I have gone through and updated at least five flora pages already, three of them look something like this, why this is significant is because when I first joined the server I breezed over the wiki for a bit and having not known any of the old maps/What LM Approval meant left me quite lost and I had to have people explain to me what some of these words meant and what these places actually were in my own preference I would like the wiki to take the extra time to look over the pages and look at it in the perspective of a new player. I finish this off by explaining my main ambition for 2018 and this coming summer, which is to ensure new players are satisfied with the flora wiki, that they would be able to clearly follow and understand what each flora's purpose has and how they are able to use it in roleplay.

     

     

     

    Please provide an example of a wiki page you see as a model example and list your reasoning

     

    https://wikia.lordofthecraft.net/index.php?title=New_Player_Guide

    As a fan of helping new players around Atlas, I understand how overwhelming everything can be especially to some of our younger community members, what I have come to understand is they don't bother to glance over the helpful links for new players as often as some of our older community do, because when applying for a whitelist on the server they are told to look at some races they might want to play and base all information on that. My goal is to be able to have an introduction book made in the actual server that is given to all new whitelists on the server providing the new players with a soulbound book that links to pages on the wiki, why this this page stands out is because not only does it go into roleplay areas, such as aging, applying, a timeline, even short lore stories of races. But in my own opinion It should be the first thing we show to new players who maybe struggle with understanding the roleplay commands ect.

     

     

    Please showcase your abilities with either A short writing on a subject of your choosing, or An example of an 'other' (Already completed wiki pages are a plus!)

    Why are you pursuing the route of Monkhood?:

    My childhood is an experience I relive every day. Chaos and anarchy is all my ears hear; the sounds of war as men clash their swords without warning. In the darkness I am left defenceless and to the mercy of those who might have been the last remaining good within atlas; I was blinded by my parents who followed the path of Iblees, believing it to be his will to leave their own child sightless. In the now eternal darkness I fled, seeking protection and teaching at the Temple where I could help any who suffered like I have.
    Which sect do you wish to join?:
    My studies included medicine, I aim to follow the moons path as so many have before me
    Do you agree to abide by the three laws of the Triumvirate?:

    I Evangeline promise to abide by the laws of the Triumvirate.

  3. The hooded mistress let out a cheerful giggle, as her eyes traced the words with interest, her fingers followed the words on the parchment as she spoke aloud the poem, her face turned a sour glare as the woman concluded the speech, the note within her hands became a crumpled mess of splotched ink, with the flick of the woman's hand the once beautiful parchment would send it into the brightly shining campfire."How easily a castle turns into ruins by just  allowing a woman to speak her mind, how long the bear suffered endless torment with no proper care, how it begged to be slaughtered to end its pain, only to collapse from the pressure, the woman who was filled with such pride allowed herself to become so blind, hath Iblees touched this woman? or did she do such things with her own consent, for her dancing bear now turned beast, seeks revenge and redemption, may her hands forever stain red with the blood of her own wrongdoing, may the void show no mercy to this woman." moments passed as she remained  quiet in the darkness, until her body seemed to shiver at the cold breeze, once satisfied with what she had proclaimed to the greedy flames of the light, she would saddle her horse beginning to journey towards Renatus-Marna to seek the maestro. "Foolishness and greed is a mans beast, yet a woman who fell for these attributes still plays prey,  has she shown us the true colours of her skin?, or is there more beneath her pale sickly skin, for she is no more a heretic than the common bar wench, for her dancing bear still crying forevermore, as the music that once soothed his ears now only brings on misery, how a woman who acted like such a beast can still play coy without remorse, may the men who still respect her see the succubus in its true form, and may Iblees devour this soul for his own, for he hath finally found his queen, may she reside with him in the void for eternity." the woman chanted as she rode upon the cantering horse, through the dimly lit roads allowing for it to echo the eerie forest grounds, only to finish with the sounds of pounding hooves on muddy path roads.

    Past the wall is 1.0 or 2.0 I always forget. 

     

    Athera was East of whatever map got eaten by the void.

    Axios was South of whatever map got eaten by the void.

    Atlas is North of whatever map got eaten up by the void.

    7.0 is West of whatever map got eaten by the void.

     

    The wall was constructed by a Ice Spirit that was apart of a deity of spirits worshiped by the Ottoman Empire like Human Nation that was here originally. This Empire was direct descendants of Horen like the Hall of Urguan and Forest of Malin events in the previous two story line maps. This wall was constructed to hold back the void that was spreading from the fallen map that Iblees had conquered after destroying the Cloud Temple and so on.

     

    After the wall falls, we're going to have to dive into the ruins of the ancient Ottoman Empire ruins, ha those horse statues near Haense? who knew, to try and find an answer as the void and a undead or some dark horde is pushing across the map. And thanks to the mixture of ET, nations are actually going to get destroyed as it swarms through, which is why no REAL NATION was allowed to start there at the beginning of the map.

     

    The Horde is going to push across the map and the Descendants have to work together or get annihilated. 

     

    This Horde is most likely going to be led by a Lich-King version of Horen, which would add onto the previous story line DLC pack that LOTC is running on right now. For all of you that didn't know, Horen got beheaded well fighting Krug and then Krug was kidnapped/killed by Iblees shortly after. Horen's body was never recovered so yea, Lich-King Horen.

     

     

    Short Version:

     

    Wall falls, Lich-King Horen comes through. He leads undead horde of destroyed Ottoman Empire through the map conquering nations and destroying free build.

     

    @Xarkly give me a better challenge.

  5. The fea-orc stood about idly, letting her lazy eyes skim over the lines of the poorly crafted poster, reading them aloud slowly with a fiery determination to try and understand the scribblings on it. She strokes her chin a few times throughout the exertion, eventually raising her hand to her ear to wiggle a finger around within it. The orcess withdraws her digit, now coated with a thick layer of ear wax, to drag it across the parchment to spell the word 'NUB'. Content with what she had accomplished, she turns about to pace off into the sunsent with heavy steps, knowing no pure man would want to lay hands on an overgrown goblin.

    Alright Creamy we're gonna need more than just an in-character paragraph, this is more like an introduction rather than a planned event scenario that we're looking for. This part of the application is meant to allow you to show us your potential to be a good ET and while the other two events are much better, you need to expand this first one a lot lot more.

     

    Understood, I will work on it now changes will be made in gold!

    Group/Nation: Dwarven

     

    Have you ever held a staff position before?

    No

     

    Have you ever been banned before?

    No

     

    What style of events do you feel you enjoy creating?

    Horror with a psychological twist(Such as Hannibal, The Shining and Silence of the Lambs.), Adventure/Quests that take you into worlds unknown, I feel as though every time I write an event I have to look at it from the perspective of a person who will be participating in the event to determine if the outcome will be successful. As far as writing events go, I truly enjoy ones that take longer to solve/finish as more people have the chance to join in and take part.

    As someone who is fairly newer to Lotc, I have only seen the end of the world event, pvp ones, and the Krugmas ones as well as the ice maze (which I didn't do). I can see that staff try to make events in which multiple players can participate in and that they allow multiple races to enjoy it. While I encourage events where a group or party of players can engage in there are some however such as dances, quests to fight giant monsters I see them mostly secluded to a single nation or area of the map which means during the event players will have to run the already huge map to partake in it, creating events should mostly encourage others who come from a multiple ranges of nations/clans or even organizations to have a good time. While still making it accessible for them to join the event during the beginning instead of showing up halfway or even when it is over, my main passion for writing my ideas comes from the idea and goal that everyone should be allowed to have fun, not just single out nations for events but to try and encourage new ideas that may have not already been thought up that go into sometimes sensitive areas by bringing a light onto it. So, in summary, I try to be as creative as possible and to step out of my comfort zones because really, you need to adapt to new situations in order to experience something new.

     

    List three factors you feel play a part in quality event and expand upon them

     

     

     

    Setting the stage for your audience:

     

    What is performance when there is nobody to watch it? Exactly the reason a playwright explores different environments, emotions, characters even themes is so he is able to capture the audience using a range of effects and personalities for each character so that the audience is always thrown off guard by the actors performance. For an event to be good one must be able to carry it without notes on a script, to improvise an event should it face an unexpected turn. But it is a way to ensure that the event is always left on a cliffhanger before revealing a plot twist; you could even latch onto people's interest using it to your advantage. You should be able to entertain and interact with a wide range of characters and leave them talking about the event for days still in awe of how it was carried out. This is something those who have a true passion for entertainment will always try to achieve.

     

    Hands on experience:

     

    I have seen most events being severely one-sided where one puppetmaster controls the strings. For example, the ET run a performance event (music, dancing or even the theatre) and instead of allowing players outside the team to be extras they only allow people on the team to carry out the event and partake in, this example is one most of you know where during every shakespeare play the woman role was always played by a man. My idea would be allowing hired actors to participate with the staff as if it was a real drama performance. While the outcome and performance are phenomenal it would leave players feeling as if they just wasted their time on nothing, if the event was always one-sided. The rebuttal being oh we have events where players can fight monsters or creatures played by ET actors so they already have a hands-on experience. I would say that these events were planned out within 10 to 15 minutes and are just there purely for players to write lore stories of how they killed a drake, dragon etc I want to expand on those ideas to allow a larger portion of the community to participate in large-scale events that I would hope took a few days to plan out/build rather than someone just disguising as a mob and rping being killed. An important idea both in real life and here is that you can not exclude people for long, it will give them the negative idea that they will never be able to engage in anything either because it’s locked to a specific race like player created events or because as most of you guys know we live in multiple time zones we need to start allowing the planning and creation of large scale events to attract more roleplay/players and those who participated to come forth with new event ideas to make Atlas more enjoyable as we see it now its a huge map adding some new areas wouldn't hurt.

     

    Darwinism strikes again:

     

    The ability to adapt to your environment is often very important when hosting events as there can be numerous limitations and faults either during the event or prior either being yourself can no longer host the event you must either postpone it or.. Have someone take your place which I am sure no person wants for their own event, but not only do we run into problems personally there are sometimes clashes within events either a fight breaks out in character or even the usual spam of ooc we see flooding the chat either an argument over something minuscule, or someone just trying to ruin the rp for the others while this is always an issue where the worlds clash and collide, one should know better than to lose one's temper instead ignoring the problem and moving forth with the event for the participants who actually want to enjoy themselves. What one must always remember is there is always another solution to the problem, and you should not let it/others change how you would proceed with your event should it run into issues simply breath and think of how you can change the situation in your favor for the better. Not only can conflict change the situation of an event but by a player for example doing something irp that would catch anyone off guard (eg You are leading players on a rescue mission to save a monk from the clutches of a demon, your team and you successfully take the monk away from danger but someone in your group ends up killing the monk.) the roleplay itself would take a turn, as an actor you would have to adapt the story so one would seek the path of revenge for the monk that was killed. You as the actor could say that a traitor is with the group so what was a rescue mission ends with you killing that which has betrayed you.

    The main point one always needs to remember is to always remain calm, remember there is always a solution even if you fail to see one you can always ask for help.

     

     

     

     

     

    Which member(s) of the team would you attempt to emulate, and why?

     

    I have not been on long enough to.. Sort of leech onto a specific staff member.

     

     

    Provide three event scenarios of the styles you listed above

     

     

    Whispering Willows

     

    An elderly figure sat masked before you, his hand remained out stretched as you notice, mushrooms, vines entwined within the fingers of the mysterious man of nature, as you approach him, his voice would send a chilling message through the users ears, his voice would be creaky and seemed to draw every word on for hours. He made no movements as he spoke remaining cloaked beneath the black veil.“Do ye believe en tales uv magical creatures tineh tings tat’ be shinin loike ah star, ay these beh teh creatures dat live onleh en teh whisperin willows. It beh a magical place tat’ onleh shows ets roots evereh tousan’ years... If ye beh luckeh enough teh follow teh whisperin sounds uv tes’ tings ye will find wonders beyond yer wildest dreams’, an' tey say tat onleh tose’ wo are uv pure art’ and moind will be able teh understand teh words uv teh creatures’. Ye can nae beh an ol’ man all ye be earin is teh sound uv chimes ahn whistels’. If ye beh up fer teh challenge ye must foind teh first clue”The figure would scratch his beard, looking up to the stars for a long moment. He would turn his gaze back down to you to finish speaking, his eyes now filled with what seems to be stars. "Find the fallen star of the west. There you will find a test of heart." He would say, pointing to the sky to show a shooting star heading for the ground, a blazing trail behind it before it would suddenly grow ever closer to the ground before vanishing behind the trees. A few seconds later the ground would rumble beneath your feet, if you were to look back to the old man you would only find empty air where he once stood.

     

    Loves the last bite

     

    Though many men are born with a pure heart, those still fall into the desires of these beasts.  These Women their voices resemble that of silk and gold, smooth as if they were sent by the gods to do favors for men.To allow them to succumb to their desires before they meet a fatal end.. Why is this tale of woe so important you may ask? A plague. A vile disgusting beast has been pursuing the blood of young males. There remains left torn open or even burnt till they are left. Almost unrecognizable. We call people and urge them to protect themselves from these. These beasts of sin must be brought to justice.

    You descendants of these lands are to be warned of the dangers. It would appear as if the beast has left a path. A hidden bread trail for those of you who are capable of anything will be rewarded for slaying the beast. Or beasts…

     

    *Following the Bread trail*

     

    Examining each of the body one would take notice of roman numerals. Carved into the bodies flesh itself or left on a torn journal page. They may have one to three sets of numbers those who are able to decipher the coded messages would find that they spell out certain coordinates, could it be the lair of the beast or. A trap. As you follow through the bushes and stumps of rotting wood, and flowers the scent of rotting flesh lingers through your body growing more potent as you approach what looks to be a large eroded cave. As you near the entrance scattered bones and skulls would take you off guard as they formed a sort of pathway into the cave courageously you enter, as darkness and a sense of isolation follow you closely as if it was a parasite leeching off of your fear.

     

     

    Lost temple

     

    Forgotten through the ages left to rot in ruins, stood a temple adorn with gold, diamonds its beauty would send anyone to perform their greed like desires to steal the temples jewels and artifacts but one should think twice about stealing from this place it is told that any jewel or item stole from the temple would only find misery. They would be cursed if they did not return the jewel within a month those brave enough to take such items would notice that they themselves would be drawn to protect the item, be it desire or addiction, they would stop at nothing to protect the item going so far as to murder their own kind for fear of them taking their precious away. Who you ask is responsible for this curse whos temple walls only brings misery to those who fall prey visitors will notice the excessive use of gold for it would be none other than Grimdungan an ancient god of greed.

     

     

    Why do you wish to become an Event Team Actor?

    I'd like to say beforehand that even if i am dismissed for ET i will still always try to bring event ideas to the staff, being denied won’t stop me from being creative my passion is writing and i won't let this keep me from bringing creativity into the server, my main reason for wanting to join ET is simply to pursue my writing passion by showing off my creativity in the team, how well i can work under pressure even when given difficult events to plan out all with different themes i want to prove myself capable of more than what I am now.

     

    What are your strengths and weaknesses?

    could start with what everyone says teamwork, and communication is a strength any functioning human should already have but it would be repetitive, in my eyes I can offer my creative abilities to think outside of the box to bring new ideas as the ones I wrote above into fruition, I can adapt to new situations as in role-play scenarios eg Villain, Hero or even the classical Dame in distress. As I have shown in my roleplay I can handle many characters and differentiate all of their personalities so they are each specific and unique in many ways. I can roleplay all sorts of characters, for example i currently have Camilla la Bambina who's a mafia daughter where i focus on an italian/mafioso style of roleplay, whereas my other character is a necromancer. So I have experience in areas that require both character emotes and environmental emotes.

    For the most part I’d say that I tend to lose the string in a sense, I often work on three different things at one time so I can save time and effort by just doing it all together. So because of that I sometimes lose interest fairly easily while attention is something I struggle in. I will always put important things such as planning events and homework first, as I do take pride in my work.

     

    How much time could you give this position in the foreseeable future?

    I try to be at least three to four hours on each day from Sunday to Wednesday, even in school I try to get on. As my weekends are Friday and Saturday throughout the week, total at least twenty eight hours more, if I stay up.
