What race are they (and sub-race)?: -
Halfling (hobbit)
What sex are they?: - male
How old are they?: - 17
Give us a brief description of their life - their
story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - As a
Halfling I have had a simple life. Born and raised in a small town with other
Halflings alike. My father was the towns smithy, so I have learned a bit of
that trade, and am more skilled then most hobbits in the trade. My mother was a
brilliant cook, so because I loved her cooking so much, naturaly she taught me
how. Some day I would like to own a a warm home cooked food resturaunt, but my
need for adventure, keeps me from settling down long enough to do so. He has
lived in Anthos for his whole life with his loving parents, he is excited to
begin his journey as a new yound man, making a difference in the world.
What are they like (personality)?: - As
I said in the story, I am adventurous for a hobbit, I do enjoy a nice winter
night by a fire reading a good book, and drinking fine apple cider. I find
myself caring for others, and whenever in need I will put others needs infront
of mine. When I find a house, I will have an open door for anyone in need (as
my mother said was the noble thing to do). I am wise. I won’t jump to
conclusions, and I will solve any problem in front of me be it in a physical
manor or not.
What are their ambitions?: - I wish to
start my own pub a cozy wood pub for everyone to enjoy a warm meal. I also wish
to learn in magical arts, I have respected the men and women who practice
magic, if used for good.
Do they have any special skills?: - I am
a magnificent archer compared to the rest of my race. I did the hunting for my
family because my father was too busy in the forge. I am of course a cook, and
a mighty good one at that, I can satisfy your empty stomach with anything you
give me.
What are their weaknesses?: - My loved
ones in danger, and fire. I cannot stand fire unless it is in my wood burning
stove keeping me warm. If my loved one where in danger I would do anything,
even end myself for them.
Give us a description of how they look (not a
screenshot yet!)?: - Gibbian is a hobbit standing at 3’ 11”,
he has dirty blonde curly hair in a mop down an inche or two above his
shoulders. He wears a shiny blue overcoat, for he wanted to dress well to start
his adventure away from home. His coat covers an also new green loose fitting
shirt, a gentle green, similar to drying grass before it has lost its moisture.
Of course he doesn’t where shoes, for there is no need that’s to his hobbit feet.
His pants are clean and warm, a light tanish brown that Gibbian adores. His bag
is always on his back, carrying what is needed, and whatever else he can find
that will fit in.
Anything else you want to say about them?: -
Gibbian always will offer food, like any good proud Halfling and hobbit, he
will invite you into his home (if he finds one to claim as his own) Give you a
fine ale he crafted, and some fresh bread, and maybe some milk if he can spare.
He is very nimble on his feet, a fast runner, and a brilliantly agile young
man. He plans on keeping a journal of his adventures, and possibly selling a
copy to a cities library, allowing young children to enjoy his tales.

I have quite an eye for architectural theme and building aesthetics, so thank you for adding it.

In-Character Information
What’s your character called?: - Chamomile Octavia, her male alias is Chronos Octavian. She's sometimes nicknamed Moth due to her speed and weapon.
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Human
What sex are they?: - Female
How old are they?: - 20
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Moth grew up on a small farm on the outskirts of a city, the name of which she didn't bother to learn, and soon forgot either way. Her mother was very kind and proper, a regular housewife who wanted none of this "adventure" buisness in her daughter's head, and so taught her to knit and clean. Her father wasn't around often, being more than busy with his farm. In this fashion Moth grew, a humble little child, not too beautiful or plain. But she was skilled with her knitting needles, nobody could deny her that. Her doilies and scarves were perfectly knit and the pride and joy of her parents.
Soon however, this newfound skill earned her parents money. And of course, in celebration, they adapted the skill of the invalids, or drinking. Growing corrupt and greedy on the wine and money, Moth's parents made her work harder- and harder. They were not bad people, to be sure, they fed her and gave her wonderful clothes and soaps and whatnot- but refused to let have her freedom. In retrospect, this was foolish of them- Moth was nearing 16, and the hormones absolutely refused to let her be quiet, giving her a rebellious streak across her otherwise shy personality.
She managed to live two lives, one at night, training battle skills in her room with her lovely metal knitting needles, and one come the sun, knitting away all day, for 4 more years. But when puberty left her, the damage was done. Under the light of a full moon, she dressed in her more utilitarian clothes, chopped off her hair, and bound her chest to disguise as a boy. Packing bread, yarn, a tinderbox, and a satchel of coins, she ran away, taking her chances in the night.
What are they like (personality)?: - Moth is quiet and introverted, but she has what people call a "third eye" to see into people. She can tell right from wrong, her morals being as sure as a compass and precise as a clock. Being born into a humble family, she is tempted easily by the offer of influence and riches, but she wouldn't trade the universe for her freedom. She's fierce if not shy, a lion in guise as a lamb. Kind and considerate, she is selfless and frequents homeless shelters, orphanages, and medical centers to hold the hand of somebody sad and cheer them up.
What are their ambitions?: - Moth would love to become somewhat wealthy and respected, and move to a house in the mountains or near a lake- somewhere with nice scenery- and raise an adopted child or children. She wants to die of old age in a beautiful place, happily and with her grandchildren surrounding her and holding her hand, and maybe a spouse kissing her forehead.
Do they have any special skills?: - Her knitting needles. Seriously, it's like they're part of her, she can fight with them, poke a fire, make a sweater, use them as leverage to open a locked door, handholds to climb a tree- if she can think of it, she can do it with her knitting needles.
She's pretty fast, and can blend into a crowd, making her hard to chase.
What are their weaknesses?: - Her attack style is very agile and open, relying on her reactions to carry out attacks. If even for a nanosecond she is confused, that leaves her open for an attack.
Being raised by a housewife she thinks herself inferior to men and tends to shy away from them, even when disguised as one.
Moth is extremely frightened of drunkards and drinking in general, and cannot stand by the thought of not being able to control her actions.
Moth isn't confrontational and prefers to do things indirectly. When confronted, she tends to flee.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Chamomile is described by one word- average. She has mouse brown hair, not straight but not curly, choppily cut just to below her ears and hugging her neck and the sides of her face. Her eyes are mellow green-yellow, reminding you of grass in springtime and not much else, darting around like a cornered cat. Her nose is small, cute and angular and dusted with freckles. Moth's mouth is small and pink, the lips pressed together tightly and chapped, cut from her habit of biting them. She's wearing a slate gray shirt, finer material than the passerby would care to observe, and if you know her well you'd realize inside the sleeves are one little compartment each, a metal needle snug in its cloth blanket. Along with the shirt is a leather vest, buttoned up and plain, not serving much purpose, and a pair of gray pants and leather moccasins. Then you notice she has a gray, shapeless messenger bag, and suppose it simply has some essentials, bread, water, money, et cetera.
Anything else you want to say about them?: - I'm not sure what items could represent the knitting needles- any ideas?

He has wanted to see the world due to his fathers constant stories of the dwarve's amazing underground cities, the easily adaptible humans who live in large cities, and the muscular orcs that thrive in a desert, but the stories where rare because Allanon's father was constantly out traveling to unknown places. As he was reaching the age of 14 his mother and father started to teach him different necessities such as shooting a bow, hunting, fishing, healing herbs, brewing, and how to fletch and make arrows. Once Allanon reached the age of 20 which is the age of elven maturity he told his mom and dad that he wanted to go adventuring and start a family, but due to the curse of Ibleem he knew he would have to wait until he was older due to his young age and infertility. Still though he is determined to live a life full of adventure and heroism with friends of all races although he is aware of the hostility between the races.
What are they like (personality)?: - Allanon is a lively man and is easily excited. He is overly friendly and doesn't take well to liars, but that is only if he catches them. He is also well rounded and does not think any race is better than the other. He also never has been seen disrespecting his elders, and wishes to make more friends than enemies.
What are their ambitions?: - Allanon wishes to become the most well known adventurer in all the realm. He also wishes to become rich and start a family after his first 3 centuries. He also wishes to find his father who has gone on another adventure and journey with him. Since no one knows where his father went he plans to find friends and acquaintances and travel with them.
Do they have any special skills?: - Yes he is very good with the bow and was taught by his dad how to fletch and make arrows. He is also able to sneak at night due to his dark elven heritage. He also knows how to brew healing potions.
What are their weaknesses?: - Allanon cannot persuade another worth his life. He is also very bad at using a sword, dagger, or any close ranged weapons. He also does not yet know how bad the real world is. He has been taught skills but have never put them to use in a life or death situation.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - He is finely muscled due to his dark elven heritage. Long wavy white hair. A light gray complexion. A chiseled face that makes all men cry out in envy. Deep green eyes that look as though they can see into your soul.
Anything else you want to say about them?: - Allanon has yet to leave the comforts of home and does not know of the racism he might encounter. He also does not believe war is a solution because all it determines is who is left not who is right.

Out-Of-Character Information What’s your Minecraft Account Name?: Crescendilim How old are you?: 22 What time-zone do you live in?: EST Have you ever roleplayed before - if you have, how?: I've been roleplaying for roughly five or six years now, mostly doing forum rp and other text-based mediums such as Dungeons & Dragons. Have you been on any other roleplaying servers?: I have never been on any minecraft roleplay server; this this would be my first. Have you applied to this server before?(Please link past applications): This is my first application to Lord of the Craft. How did you hear about us?: I bought minecraft a few months ago after seeing some random but amazing builds. I wanted to see if I could find a few Lord of the rings builds and when I typed it into the minecraft forums, Lotc showed up as well. What do you think the server will be like? I hope the server will be a place where I can create enjoyable roleplaying experiences for other roleplayers as well as enjoying the roleplay that other roleplayers wish to include me in. More importantly, I think this will be a learning experience. Have you read and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I have. What’s your favourite rule / the rule you agree with the most?:
Quote
You can't play another person's character! Even if another player's banned and they can't get on, you still can't play them! Their character is theirs only!
I think this rule is vital, there’s no one who can play someone else’s character as intended, but the original creator of said character, to me it shows a lack of originality. Definitions This is simply so that we can get an understanding of how much you know about roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not another website / person's! What is roleplaying?: To me, roleplaying is like an ever growing book, in which I am able to make up a character, give it personality and traits unique to them based on their history, and then place this character I have created into a setting with other characters so that they may interact accordingly; creating an intricate story.
What’s metagaming?: The act of using information obtained out of character via Mumble, Ventrilo, TeamSpeak, Skype, private messages etc., and applying it to your character's knowledge when they have no way of knowing or obtaining that information in character.
What’s powergaming?: Forcing one’s character, that is not your own, to do an action without said character’s permission. This leaves no way for the other person to interact and therefore, takes away from the rp experience.
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. What’s your character called?: Margaret Cardon What race are they (and sub-race)?: Human Northerner What gender are they?: Female How old are they?: 23 Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): “Don’t touch that, child!” A middle aged mother hissed down to the child standing next to her. The bustle of New Abresi’s market that morning left little Margaret equally as restless. She had been shifting from one foot to the other, making a game of balancing her weight on one leg when the sweet aroma of freshly baked cookies filled the child’s nostrils. Having only eaten a few bites of stale bread this morning before helping her mother with daily chores, little Margaret’s stomach growled, urging her to reach for a particular cookie located nearest to her. Margaret’s mother, who was watching the child carefully, firmly yanked the child back and reprimanded her despite the on lookers. Margaret’s ears turned pink with embarrassment as her mother pushed her forward and insisted on an apology. Bowing her head the child mumbled a quick apology before hiding behind her mother’s leg. It would only be later that night where Margaret’s mother would sit down with her child and explain. Pulling Margaret into her lap, her mother stroked her hair gently as she sang an old lullaby. Glancing up at her mother, Margaret pouts gently. “Mama? Why didn’t you eat today?” She asked, her gaze filled with curiosity. “Because, my dear, I have to feed you first.” A sad smile forms on her lips as she gently runs her hands through Margaret’s hair. “I would have shared my cookie with you, Mama!” The child speaks up, a hint of worry creasing her brow. Margaret’s mother scowls and makes a sharp click of her tongue while shaking her head. “Don’t you know stealing is bad, Margaret? Do you know what happens to thieves and other bad people?” Margaret shakes her head gently, her gaze focused on her mother’s stern features. “They send all the bad people to Setherien and the Northern beasts. I hear that they especially love bad little girls who like to take things that don’t belong to them! That’s why!” Margaret’s mother sighs gently as she watches her daughter’s face morph into an expression of terror. She knew that what she had said was untrue for the most part, and was only told as a means to scare Margaret. Crooning gently, she hugs the girl close and places a kiss to her forehead. "Don’t worry, my sweetling. Mama just wants what is best for you. Hard work and honesty is first and foremost.” The older woman smiles reassuringly and hugs the child close, Staying quiet for a few moments, she turns her gaze towards the window, watching the glow of torches illuminate the road and the sounds of Kraltan evening drifted through the windows. “Mama? Is that why Papa isn’t here with us anymore?” Margaret looks up at her mother, her face showing a hint of uneasiness. Her mother on the other hand shook her head quickly, and began to reassure her daughter’s fears. “No no, my sweet. Papa was killed by the Black Scourge. He was a good man and loved you very much. He would not want to see his daughter reduced to stealing. Promise me that you won’t steal ever again.” Margaret nods her head quickly a smile forming on her face as she cuddled close to her mother. Life for Margaret was far from easy. Growing up as a poor peasant on the outskirts of Ruska, she and her mother barely scraped enough mina together to put food in their mouths. As any child from a typical peasant family, the temptation of taking just enough to survive on came up more than once, but was quickly suppressed by her mother’s stern gaze and lecturing. It was from a young age, Margaret developed a sense of longing to make her mother happy, but also to adhere to her mother’s warnings about honesty and hard work. Thus her resolve to grow into something more, to provide for her mother and ultimately to see the woman, who had given birth to her, smile. By her late teens Margaret was a hard-working woman. She took over the small farm where both her and her mother lived, and began making trips into New Abresi to try and peddle the few goods she could, and earn a few mina. Her role in providing left her little time to study. She knew the basics to reading and writing due to her work, but she had never lain eyes on a book. Hearing that those who could write stories earned a higher wage, sparked an idea within Margaret’s mind. If she could learn to read and write, she would make enough to sustain her mother and herself for years to come. Now it was only a matter of finding the time to learn while maintaining a steady job. By the time Margaret was twenty-one, she would have obtained a job as a barmaid in a cozy tavern near the Cloud Temple. Due to the distance of travel, and wanting to earn as much as she could, she would sleep in the cellar and send what money she earned to her mother, the rest she would keep in a savings jar for emergency use. Finally on track with her plans, Margaret now searches for a way to learn how to read and write, so that one day she can publish her own books to make enough to sustain her mother and possibly future family. What are they like (personality)?: Margaret is a headstrong woman, who does enjoy relaxing once in a while, but while there is work to be done, she will work long and hard, rarely pausing to rest. Due to having grown up without a father and her mother being the sole provider during her childhood, Margaret unconsciously thinks poorly of the opposite gender at first meetings. Life as a peasant has taught her the value of a mina, thus it is rare for Margaret to indulge herself in luxuries. What are their ambitions?: To become a writer and earn enough mina to sustain her current and possible future family. Do they have any special skills?: Having worked most of her life, Margaret has a decent repertoire of culinary recipes. What are their weaknesses?: Due to being headstrong and unwavering in her future plans paired with her lack of education, Margaret does not often see the larger picture or has an eye for fine detail, making it seem as though she is dense, but in reality, she just wants to finally accomplish what she has set her mind to do. Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: Margaret has light brown eyes and tanned skin from working out in the sun most days. Her hair is a chocolate brown and usually kept under a bonnet so it doesn’t get in her eyes as she works. She is not an overly pretty woman, due to not having the time to care for her appearance as those of a higher status, this does not really bother her. She wears typical peasant clothing, which she washes and re-sews whenever they need repairing. Anything else you want to say about them?: Nope. Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin:

What’s your character called?: - Valindor
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Dark Elf
What sex are they?: - male
How old are they?: - 40
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - On the outskirts of Elandriel, late at night, a young elf lay under a towering spruce tree, the sound of footsteps and quiet sobs can be heard in the near distance along with reassuring whispering. "We have no other choice," a male voice says, "we can't allow for this to be known to anyone." He was walking with a young elf, most likely less than 100.
"But why, why must we leave him here just lying in the wilderness for the next passing creature to pick up, what if it is an orc!" She stated with great distress and a trained voice as to not alert any passing creatures.
"Quiet Remela, you know orcs rarely come this far, I have faith that he will be found by one of the wood elves, we can only hope now." said the male voice, reassuring her. On the inside he concealed the same feelings behind a shroud of stoic emotion.
"No..." Remela whispered under her breath, her only son, this was a miracle to any elf and she was to desert him? She was to leave him on an over turned tree just to conceal the true nature of their relationship? "No!" she shouted, living thing could be heard scurrying under the brush as she lost the characteristic control that saturated her voice had left ages ago. The male tightened his grip on Remela's arm as he dragged her away into the night making little noise other than Remela's screaming, the characteristic stealth of the dark elf then kicked in as not a twig broke as Remela was dragged through the brush.
Years passed, the child dark elf was taken in by the neighboring wood elves and was raised as one of their own, and he learned the skills of the forest and the wood-elven ways and was given the name Valindor, this meant "born of the forest" in the old tongue known to only a select few. Valindor's foster parents had nurtured him for twenty short years, an insignificant amount of time considering the elven life-span. Being raised by wood elves Valindor inherited the traits of both races, the archery skills of the wood elves and the instinctual expressiveness of his birth race.
Although Valindor's foster parents planned to have him stay in Elandriel to live and prosper off their craft, Valindor had his own ideas. He wanted to visit the lands of his birth race, to travel the whole of Asulon and learn various crafts as he went. It was a sunny summer day when he left, Only 30 and with the characteristic light eyes of a young elf he left with little more than the characteristic wood elf clothes on his back, he set out to explore the lands. This is where we find him today.
What are they like (personality)?: - Being raised by a different race left Valindor to social awkwardness, he hopes to sort this out by mingling with all races. Also the generosity of the wood elves has "rubbed off" on Valindor who now cares more for others than for himself. He likes to wear a mask so he does not draw attention to himself.
What are their ambitions?: - Valindor's ambitions are to explore, learn and make new allies.
Do they have any special skills?: - Stealth and bows
What are their weaknesses?: - Talking to people for long durations of time, being underground for long periods of time
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Has greyish blue skin with red eyesand dark hair, He wears red and grey robes and a white and red mask
Anything else you want to say about them?: - Nothing

What sex are they?: - Male
How old are they?: - 18
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Born and raised in Luminaire, Senis, a young lively elven boy would spend his days in the archives reading books varieties of subjects. One subject that he found particularly interesting was alchemy. He found the idea of a magic elixir, made of just common ingredient he could find by simply walking around outside, fascinating. Though his father, a member of the city guard in Luminaire, decided to make him spend every hour of day practicing archery, though he would barely ever improve. He was an outcast among elves. One day after returning home from a trip to the archives, he returns to nothing but a burnt pile of ash and two burnt corpses belonging to his parents. Later he runs into several of the town guards talking of the murder of their father, revealing it was they who had killed them and burnt down their home and when he asked the guards why they had murdered his parents they simply said it was an order from their superiors. He then resented the other elves for allowing a crime like that to be commited by order of the military. His goal is to avenge his fallen family (I know this is kinda cliche) and escape to new civilization outside of wood elf territories and live among other peoples and bring justice for the guard who had a grudge. Though too young to notice at the time that the guard had lied he now seeks to rid the peoples of the land of their lies.
What are they like (personality)?: - Mysterious, powerful, and intelligent.
What are their ambitions?: - To travel through Anthos and expose the truth behind all the lies in the world.

What’s your character called?: - Eli Velius
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Half-Elf (Not sure whether half-races around allowed)
What sex are they?: - Male
How old are they?: - 19
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Eli was born on a fairly large farm a few kilometres outside Mali'aheral. It was owned by his Father who was a hardworking farmer and recognised council member of the small nearly village. Eli's Mother had only been alive for a few short years of Eli's life as she had died of an unrecognised illness but Eli still had a picture-perfect memory of her in his dreams, she was fairly short Elf with long violet hair and emerald eyes. His father however, was a tall man with dark brown hair and beady brown eyes. Eli looked much more like his mother than father as he shared her dark purple hair and slightly scrawny build. Eli was always quiet and reserved during his childhood, only talking when spoken to, he never had many friends as a child as he spent most of his time working at the farm. His father never gave Eli much attention, other than demanding him to another task to work on the farm, he blamed Eli for his wife's unrelated illness yet never understood why he did so. Eli always dreamed of leaving the farm, away from his father and becoming an adventurer yet he knew it would only be a dream because of his lack of knowledge with any sort of weapons. The few times of the year that Eli enjoyed was when he saw his older cousin, Vieron. It was a few years later that Eli realised he had a chance of fulfilling his dream of becoming an 'adventurer', it was a warm summers day and Eli was out in the fields as usual, the town's guard was patrolling down the road with their wagons of supplies. They were a few hundred metres down the road and Eli could just see them, he stopped and dropped his hoe, he ran inside and threw everything into his ragged rucksack. He sprinted outside and hid in the closet bush to the road, he waited for the wagon and slipped inside, burying himself into the hay. He laid and soon fell asleep as the wagon rolled throughout the plains.
What are they like (personality)?: - Eli is quiet and reserved, rather than being arrogant and know-it-all like the High Elves. He is open-minded and willing to gain new information about any subject.
What are their ambitions?: - Explore the lands and learn the arts of archery as well as learning everything there is to learn.

Mithius being homeschooled steered his career choice into the banking business pretty swiftly. At the age of 17 he started working in the loan division of the family's bank.
A few years after the fall of Abresi, the family bank went bankrupt, but not long after that a businessman by the name of Oliver Dunn wished to purchase the bank, Mithius now being the director sold the bank to the man. Mithius handed over the legal documents and keys to Dunn and was about to leave the room but then Dunn interrupted him "Wait, aren't you supposed to work here?" to which Mithius replied "What you talking about? You just bought the lot." Oliver chuckled and said "Why, I must've forgotten to tell you that I wish to have you work as the treasurer of my company, my 'extra pair of eyes' have seen how well you are with numbers and this line of work" Mithius now surprised said "Well, sir, that sounds satisfactory, I'm in."
From then on, Mithius followed Oliver in his every footstep in his everlasting quest for wealth.

Halfling (hobbit)
What sex are they?: - male
How old are they?: - 17
Give us a brief description of their life - their
story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - As a
Halfling I have had a simple life. Born and raised in a small town with other
Halflings alike. My father was the towns smithy, so I have learned a bit of
that trade, and am more skilled then most hobbits in the trade. My mother was a
brilliant cook, so because I loved her cooking so much, naturaly she taught me
how. Some day I would like to own a a warm home cooked food resturaunt, but my
need for adventure, keeps me from settling down long enough to do so. He has
lived in Anthos for his whole life with his loving parents, he is excited to
begin his journey as a new yound man, making a difference in the world.
What are they like (personality)?: - As
I said in the story, I am adventurous for a hobbit, I do enjoy a nice winter
night by a fire reading a good book, and drinking fine apple cider. I find
myself caring for others, and whenever in need I will put others needs infront
of mine. When I find a house, I will have an open door for anyone in need (as
my mother said was the noble thing to do). I am wise. I won’t jump to
conclusions, and I will solve any problem in front of me be it in a physical
manor or not.
What are their ambitions?: - I wish to
start my own pub a cozy wood pub for everyone to enjoy a warm meal. I also wish
to learn in magical arts, I have respected the men and women who practice
magic, if used for good.
Do they have any special skills?: - I am
a magnificent archer compared to the rest of my race. I did the hunting for my
family because my father was too busy in the forge. I am of course a cook, and
a mighty good one at that, I can satisfy your empty stomach with anything you
give me.
What are their weaknesses?: - My loved
ones in danger, and fire. I cannot stand fire unless it is in my wood burning
stove keeping me warm. If my loved one where in danger I would do anything,
even end myself for them.
Give us a description of how they look (not a
screenshot yet!)?: - Gibbian is a hobbit standing at 3’ 11”,
he has dirty blonde curly hair in a mop down an inche or two above his
shoulders. He wears a shiny blue overcoat, for he wanted to dress well to start
his adventure away from home. His coat covers an also new green loose fitting
shirt, a gentle green, similar to drying grass before it has lost its moisture.
Of course he doesn’t where shoes, for there is no need that’s to his hobbit feet.
His pants are clean and warm, a light tanish brown that Gibbian adores. His bag
is always on his back, carrying what is needed, and whatever else he can find
that will fit in.
Anything else you want to say about them?: -
Gibbian always will offer food, like any good proud Halfling and hobbit, he
will invite you into his home (if he finds one to claim as his own) Give you a
fine ale he crafted, and some fresh bread, and maybe some milk if he can spare.
He is very nimble on his feet, a fast runner, and a brilliantly agile young
man. He plans on keeping a journal of his adventures, and possibly selling a
copy to a cities library, allowing young children to enjoy his tales.

In-Character Information
What’s your character called?: - Chamomile Octavia, her male alias is Chronos Octavian. She's sometimes nicknamed Moth due to her speed and weapon.
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Human
What sex are they?: - Female
How old are they?: - 20
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Moth grew up on a small farm on the outskirts of a city, the name of which she didn't bother to learn, and soon forgot either way. Her mother was very kind and proper, a regular housewife who wanted none of this "adventure" buisness in her daughter's head, and so taught her to knit and clean. Her father wasn't around often, being more than busy with his farm. In this fashion Moth grew, a humble little child, not too beautiful or plain. But she was skilled with her knitting needles, nobody could deny her that. Her doilies and scarves were perfectly knit and the pride and joy of her parents.
Soon however, this newfound skill earned her parents money. And of course, in celebration, they adapted the skill of the invalids, or drinking. Growing corrupt and greedy on the wine and money, Moth's parents made her work harder- and harder. They were not bad people, to be sure, they fed her and gave her wonderful clothes and soaps and whatnot- but refused to let have her freedom. In retrospect, this was foolish of them- Moth was nearing 16, and the hormones absolutely refused to let her be quiet, giving her a rebellious streak across her otherwise shy personality.
She managed to live two lives, one at night, training battle skills in her room with her lovely metal knitting needles, and one come the sun, knitting away all day, for 4 more years. But when puberty left her, the damage was done. Under the light of a full moon, she dressed in her more utilitarian clothes, chopped off her hair, and bound her chest to disguise as a boy. Packing bread, yarn, a tinderbox, and a satchel of coins, she ran away, taking her chances in the night.
What are they like (personality)?: - Moth is quiet and introverted, but she has what people call a "third eye" to see into people. She can tell right from wrong, her morals being as sure as a compass and precise as a clock. Being born into a humble family, she is tempted easily by the offer of influence and riches, but she wouldn't trade the universe for her freedom. She's fierce if not shy, a lion in guise as a lamb. Kind and considerate, she is selfless and frequents homeless shelters, orphanages, and medical centers to hold the hand of somebody sad and cheer them up.
What are their ambitions?: - Moth would love to become somewhat wealthy and respected, and move to a house in the mountains or near a lake- somewhere with nice scenery- and raise an adopted child or children. She wants to die of old age in a beautiful place, happily and with her grandchildren surrounding her and holding her hand, and maybe a spouse kissing her forehead.
Do they have any special skills?: - Her knitting needles. Seriously, it's like they're part of her, she can fight with them, poke a fire, make a sweater, use them as leverage to open a locked door, handholds to climb a tree- if she can think of it, she can do it with her knitting needles.
She's pretty fast, and can blend into a crowd, making her hard to chase.
What are their weaknesses?: - Her attack style is very agile and open, relying on her reactions to carry out attacks. If even for a nanosecond she is confused, that leaves her open for an attack.
Being raised by a housewife she thinks herself inferior to men and tends to shy away from them, even when disguised as one.
Moth is extremely frightened of drunkards and drinking in general, and cannot stand by the thought of not being able to control her actions.
Moth isn't confrontational and prefers to do things indirectly. When confronted, she tends to flee.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Chamomile is described by one word- average. She has mouse brown hair, not straight but not curly, choppily cut just to below her ears and hugging her neck and the sides of her face. Her eyes are mellow green-yellow, reminding you of grass in springtime and not much else, darting around like a cornered cat. Her nose is small, cute and angular and dusted with freckles. Moth's mouth is small and pink, the lips pressed together tightly and chapped, cut from her habit of biting them. She's wearing a slate gray shirt, finer material than the passerby would care to observe, and if you know her well you'd realize inside the sleeves are one little compartment each, a metal needle snug in its cloth blanket. Along with the shirt is a leather vest, buttoned up and plain, not serving much purpose, and a pair of gray pants and leather moccasins. Then you notice she has a gray, shapeless messenger bag, and suppose it simply has some essentials, bread, water, money, et cetera.
Anything else you want to say about them?: - I'm not sure what items could represent the knitting needles- any ideas?

How old are they?: - 20
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Allanon has lived on the out skirts of the Elven capitol Luminaire. He has wanted to see the world due to his fathers constant stories of the dwarve's amazing underground cities, the easily adaptible humans who live in large cities, and the muscular orcs that thrive in a desert, but the stories where rare because Allanon's father was constantly out traveling to unknown places. As he was reaching the age of 14 his mother and father started to teach him different necessities such as shooting a bow, hunting, fishing, healing herbs, brewing, and how to fletch and make arrows. Once Allanon reached the age of 20 which is the age of elven maturity he told his mom and dad that he wanted to go adventuring and start a family, but due to the curse of Ibleem he knew he would have to wait until he was older due to his young age and infertility. Still though he is determined to live a life full of adventure and heroism with friends of all races although he is aware of the hostility between the races.
What are they like (personality)?: - Allanon is a lively man and is easily excited. He is overly friendly and doesn't take well to liars, but that is only if he catches them. He is also well rounded and does not think any race is better than the other. He also never has been seen disrespecting his elders, and wishes to make more friends than enemies.
What are their ambitions?: - Allanon wishes to become the most well known adventurer in all the realm. He also wishes to become rich and start a family after his first 3 centuries. He also wishes to find his father who has gone on another adventure and journey with him. Since no one knows where his father went he plans to find friends and acquaintances and travel with them.
Do they have any special skills?: - Yes he is very good with the bow and was taught by his dad how to fletch and make arrows. He is also able to sneak at night due to his dark elven heritage. He also knows how to brew healing potions.
What are their weaknesses?: - Allanon cannot persuade another worth his life. He is also very bad at using a sword, dagger, or any close ranged weapons. He also does not yet know how bad the real world is. He has been taught skills but have never put them to use in a life or death situation.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - He is finely muscled due to his dark elven heritage. Long wavy white hair. A light gray complexion. A chiseled face that makes all men cry out in envy. Deep green eyes that look as though they can see into your soul.
Anything else you want to say about them?: - Allanon has yet to leave the comforts of home and does not know of the racism he might encounter. He also does not believe war is a solution because all it determines is who is left not who is right.

Quote

What is roleplaying?:
To me, roleplaying is like an ever growing book, in which I am able to make up a character, give it personality and traits unique to them based on their history, and then place this character I have created into a setting with other characters so that they may interact accordingly; creating an intricate story.
What’s metagaming?:
The act of using information obtained out of character via Mumble, Ventrilo, TeamSpeak, Skype, private messages etc., and applying it to your character's knowledge when they have no way of knowing or obtaining that information in character.
What’s powergaming?:
Forcing one’s character, that is not your own, to do an action without said character’s permission. This leaves no way for the other person to interact and therefore, takes away from the rp experience.

What’s your character called?:
Margaret Cardon
What race are they (and sub-race)?:
Human Northerner
What gender are they?:
Female
How old are they?:
23
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing):
“Don’t touch that, child!”
A middle aged mother hissed down to the child standing next to her. The bustle of New Abresi’s market that morning left little Margaret equally as restless. She had been shifting from one foot to the other, making a game of balancing her weight on one leg when the sweet aroma of freshly baked cookies filled the child’s nostrils. Having only eaten a few bites of stale bread this morning before helping her mother with daily chores, little Margaret’s stomach growled, urging her to reach for a particular cookie located nearest to her. Margaret’s mother, who was watching the child carefully, firmly yanked the child back and reprimanded her despite the on lookers. Margaret’s ears turned pink with embarrassment as her mother pushed her forward and insisted on an apology. Bowing her head the child mumbled a quick apology before hiding behind her mother’s leg.
It would only be later that night where Margaret’s mother would sit down with her child and explain. Pulling Margaret into her lap, her mother stroked her hair gently as she sang an old lullaby. Glancing up at her mother, Margaret pouts gently.
“Mama? Why didn’t you eat today?”
She asked, her gaze filled with curiosity.
“Because, my dear, I have to feed you first.”
A sad smile forms on her lips as she gently runs her hands through Margaret’s hair.
“I would have shared my cookie with you, Mama!”
The child speaks up, a hint of worry creasing her brow. Margaret’s mother scowls and makes a sharp click of her tongue while shaking her head.
“Don’t you know stealing is bad, Margaret? Do you know what happens to thieves and other bad people?”
Margaret shakes her head gently, her gaze focused on her mother’s stern features.
“They send all the bad people to Setherien and the Northern beasts. I hear that they especially love bad little girls who like to take things that don’t belong to them! That’s why!”
Margaret’s mother sighs gently as she watches her daughter’s face morph into an expression of terror. She knew that what she had said was untrue for the most part, and was only told as a means to scare Margaret. Crooning gently, she hugs the girl close and places a kiss to her forehead.
"Don’t worry, my sweetling. Mama just wants what is best for you. Hard work and honesty is first and foremost.”
The older woman smiles reassuringly and hugs the child close, Staying quiet for a few moments, she turns her gaze towards the window, watching the glow of torches illuminate the road and the sounds of Kraltan evening drifted through the windows.
“Mama? Is that why Papa isn’t here with us anymore?”
Margaret looks up at her mother, her face showing a hint of uneasiness. Her mother on the other hand shook her head quickly, and began to reassure her daughter’s fears.
“No no, my sweet. Papa was killed by the Black Scourge. He was a good man and loved you very much. He would not want to see his daughter reduced to stealing. Promise me that you won’t steal ever again.”
Margaret nods her head quickly a smile forming on her face as she cuddled close to her mother.
Life for Margaret was far from easy. Growing up as a poor peasant on the outskirts of Ruska, she and her mother barely scraped enough mina together to put food in their mouths. As any child from a typical peasant family, the temptation of taking just enough to survive on came up more than once, but was quickly suppressed by her mother’s stern gaze and lecturing. It was from a young age, Margaret developed a sense of longing to make her mother happy, but also to adhere to her mother’s warnings about honesty and hard work. Thus her resolve to grow into something more, to provide for her mother and ultimately to see the woman, who had given birth to her, smile.
By her late teens Margaret was a hard-working woman. She took over the small farm where both her and her mother lived, and began making trips into New Abresi to try and peddle the few goods she could, and earn a few mina. Her role in providing left her little time to study. She knew the basics to reading and writing due to her work, but she had never lain eyes on a book. Hearing that those who could write stories earned a higher wage, sparked an idea within Margaret’s mind. If she could learn to read and write, she would make enough to sustain her mother and herself for years to come.
Now it was only a matter of finding the time to learn while maintaining a steady job. By the time Margaret was twenty-one, she would have obtained a job as a barmaid in a cozy tavern near the Cloud Temple. Due to the distance of travel, and wanting to earn as much as she could, she would sleep in the cellar and send what money she earned to her mother, the rest she would keep in a savings jar for emergency use.
Finally on track with her plans, Margaret now searches for a way to learn how to read and write, so that one day she can publish her own books to make enough to sustain her mother and possibly future family.
What are they like (personality)?:
Margaret is a headstrong woman, who does enjoy relaxing once in a while, but while there is work to be done, she will work long and hard, rarely pausing to rest. Due to having grown up without a father and her mother being the sole provider during her childhood, Margaret unconsciously thinks poorly of the opposite gender at first meetings. Life as a peasant has taught her the value of a mina, thus it is rare for Margaret to indulge herself in luxuries.
What are their ambitions?:
To become a writer and earn enough mina to sustain her current and possible future family.
Do they have any special skills?:
Having worked most of her life, Margaret has a decent repertoire of culinary recipes.
What are their weaknesses?:
Due to being headstrong and unwavering in her future plans paired with her lack of education, Margaret does not often see the larger picture or has an eye for fine detail, making it seem as though she is dense, but in reality, she just wants to finally accomplish what she has set her mind to do.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?:
Margaret has light brown eyes and tanned skin from working out in the sun most days. Her hair is a chocolate brown and usually kept under a bonnet so it doesn’t get in her eyes as she works. She is not an overly pretty woman, due to not having the time to care for her appearance as those of a higher status, this does not really bother her. She wears typical peasant clothing, which she washes and re-sews whenever they need repairing.
Anything else you want to say about them?:
Nope.

What’s your character called?: - Valindor
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Dark Elf
What sex are they?: - male
How old are they?: - 40
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - On the outskirts of Elandriel, late at night, a young elf lay under a towering spruce tree, the sound of footsteps and quiet sobs can be heard in the near distance along with reassuring whispering. "We have no other choice," a male voice says, "we can't allow for this to be known to anyone." He was walking with a young elf, most likely less than 100.
"But why, why must we leave him here just lying in the wilderness for the next passing creature to pick up, what if it is an orc!" She stated with great distress and a trained voice as to not alert any passing creatures.
"Quiet Remela, you know orcs rarely come this far, I have faith that he will be found by one of the wood elves, we can only hope now." said the male voice, reassuring her. On the inside he concealed the same feelings behind a shroud of stoic emotion.
"No..." Remela whispered under her breath, her only son, this was a miracle to any elf and she was to desert him? She was to leave him on an over turned tree just to conceal the true nature of their relationship? "No!" she shouted, living thing could be heard scurrying under the brush as she lost the characteristic control that saturated her voice had left ages ago. The male tightened his grip on Remela's arm as he dragged her away into the night making little noise other than Remela's screaming, the characteristic stealth of the dark elf then kicked in as not a twig broke as Remela was dragged through the brush.
Years passed, the child dark elf was taken in by the neighboring wood elves and was raised as one of their own, and he learned the skills of the forest and the wood-elven ways and was given the name Valindor, this meant "born of the forest" in the old tongue known to only a select few. Valindor's foster parents had nurtured him for twenty short years, an insignificant amount of time considering the elven life-span. Being raised by wood elves Valindor inherited the traits of both races, the archery skills of the wood elves and the instinctual expressiveness of his birth race.
Although Valindor's foster parents planned to have him stay in Elandriel to live and prosper off their craft, Valindor had his own ideas. He wanted to visit the lands of his birth race, to travel the whole of Asulon and learn various crafts as he went. It was a sunny summer day when he left, Only 30 and with the characteristic light eyes of a young elf he left with little more than the characteristic wood elf clothes on his back, he set out to explore the lands. This is where we find him today.
What are they like (personality)?: - Being raised by a different race left Valindor to social awkwardness, he hopes to sort this out by mingling with all races. Also the generosity of the wood elves has "rubbed off" on Valindor who now cares more for others than for himself. He likes to wear a mask so he does not draw attention to himself.
What are their ambitions?: - Valindor's ambitions are to explore, learn and make new allies.
Do they have any special skills?: - Stealth and bows
What are their weaknesses?: - Talking to people for long durations of time, being underground for long periods of time
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Has greyish blue skin with red eyesand dark hair, He wears red and grey robes and a white and red mask
Anything else you want to say about them?: - Nothing

What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Wood Elf
What sex are they?: - Male
How old are they?: - 18
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Born and raised in Luminaire, Senis, a young lively elven boy would spend his days in the archives reading books varieties of subjects. One subject that he found particularly interesting was alchemy. He found the idea of a magic elixir, made of just common ingredient he could find by simply walking around outside, fascinating. Though his father, a member of the city guard in Luminaire, decided to make him spend every hour of day practicing archery, though he would barely ever improve. He was an outcast among elves. One day after returning home from a trip to the archives, he returns to nothing but a burnt pile of ash and two burnt corpses belonging to his parents. Later he runs into several of the town guards talking of the murder of their father, revealing it was they who had killed them and burnt down their home and when he asked the guards why they had murdered his parents they simply said it was an order from their superiors. He then resented the other elves for allowing a crime like that to be commited by order of the military. His goal is to avenge his fallen family (I know this is kinda cliche) and escape to new civilization outside of wood elf territories and live among other peoples and bring justice for the guard who had a grudge. Though too young to notice at the time that the guard had lied he now seeks to rid the peoples of the land of their lies.
What are they like (personality)?: - Mysterious, powerful, and intelligent.
What are their ambitions?: - To travel through Anthos and expose the truth behind all the lies in the world.
Do they have any special skills?: - Skilled at potion brewing, mediocre archery skills.
What are their weaknesses?: - The obvious is swords. As a wood elf he was never taught to use any close ranged weapons. The main weakness as an archery is melee combat.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Wears a brown tail coat with a white shirt underneath, fingerless gloves, black pants, and a pair of goggles around his neck. Brown hair, brown eyes, white skin. average height.

What’s your character called?: - Eli Velius
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Half-Elf (Not sure whether half-races around allowed)
What sex are they?: - Male
How old are they?: - 19
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): -
Eli was born on a fairly large farm a few kilometres outside Mali'aheral. It was owned by his Father who was a hardworking farmer and recognised council member of the small nearly village. Eli's Mother had only been alive for a few short years of Eli's life as she had died of an unrecognised illness but Eli still had a picture-perfect memory of her in his dreams, she was fairly short Elf with long violet hair and emerald eyes. His father however, was a tall man with dark brown hair and beady brown eyes. Eli looked much more like his mother than father as he shared her dark purple hair and slightly scrawny build. Eli was always quiet and reserved during his childhood, only talking when spoken to, he never had many friends as a child as he spent most of his time working at the farm. His father never gave Eli much attention, other than demanding him to another task to work on the farm, he blamed Eli for his wife's unrelated illness yet never understood why he did so. Eli always dreamed of leaving the farm, away from his father and becoming an adventurer yet he knew it would only be a dream because of his lack of knowledge with any sort of weapons. The few times of the year that Eli enjoyed was when he saw his older cousin, Vieron.
It was a few years later that Eli realised he had a chance of fulfilling his dream of becoming an 'adventurer', it was a warm summers day and Eli was out in the fields as usual, the town's guard was patrolling down the road with their wagons of supplies. They were a few hundred metres down the road and Eli could just see them, he stopped and dropped his hoe, he ran inside and threw everything into his ragged rucksack. He sprinted outside and hid in the closet bush to the road, he waited for the wagon and slipped inside, burying himself into the hay. He laid and soon fell asleep as the wagon rolled throughout the plains.
What are they like (personality)?: - Eli is quiet and reserved, rather than being arrogant and know-it-all like the High Elves. He is open-minded and willing to gain new information about any subject.
What are their ambitions?: - Explore the lands and learn the arts of archery as well as learning everything there is to learn.
Do they have any special skills?: - Farming and stealth as he snuck out a lot to explore the forest.
What are their weaknesses?: - Fighting and interaction with other races and generally other people.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - Almond brown eyes, dark and long purple hair, large pointy eyes and normal build.
Anything else you want to say about them?: - N/A

What’s your character called?: - Mithius Telvron
What race are they (and sub-race)?: - Elf, Dark elf
What sex are they?: - Male
How old are they?: - 137
Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - Mithius was the only child of a successfull banking family in Abresi. Mithius was a rather solitary child who mainly spent his time either watching his father work or reading the many books in the library.
Mithius being homeschooled steered his career choice into the banking business pretty swiftly. At the age of 17 he started working in the loan division of the family's bank.
A few years after the fall of Abresi, the family bank went bankrupt, but not long after that a businessman by the name of Oliver Dunn wished to purchase the bank, Mithius now being the director sold the bank to the man. Mithius handed over the legal documents and keys to Dunn and was about to leave the room but then Dunn interrupted him "Wait, aren't you supposed to work here?" to which Mithius replied "What you talking about? You just bought the lot." Oliver chuckled and said "Why, I must've forgotten to tell you that I wish to have you work as the treasurer of my company, my 'extra pair of eyes' have seen how well you are with numbers and this line of work" Mithius now surprised said "Well, sir, that sounds satisfactory, I'm in."
From then on, Mithius followed Oliver in his every footstep in his everlasting quest for wealth.
(Keeping it short 'n sweet. firm believer in quality over quantity.)
What are they like (personality)?: - Mithius is a determined and rather coldhearted man, rarely do emotions get in his way when money's in the picture. Although cold he is a jovial and trustworthy man.
What are their ambitions?: - To lead his company into becoming the richest in the realm
Do they have any special skills?: - Mithius is rather deceptive and analyctic. Not so very strong he relies on manipulating people into fighting for him when needed.
What are their weaknesses?: - Physical weakness, he's not fit for a fight at all.
Money, he can easily be persuaded or bribed if there's money involved and the plan isn't too far fetched.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: Mithius has bright red eyes with dark red hair w/ ponytail & beard. He wears a beige tunic with brown linings, under the tunic he wears a beige (different tone) and has some neat brown shoes on.
Anything else you want to say about them?: No, not really, other than he has plans on working in the criminal underworld to increase his wealth(after a VA has been typed out, sent in and hopefully accepted of course)
