Introduction to Ringscraft --- Coming September 27, 2013 ---
Eriador, year 127 of the Fourth Age. A second darkness has swept over Middle Earth. With a new army of dark men from the south having driven the Free People to the fringes of the north, an uneasy peace now lingers. In this time, new forces vie for power with one another and both heroes and villains arise from the conflict. It is a world divided into light and shadow.Welcome to Ringscraft, a Lord of the Rings roleplay server! Our team of admins invites you to enjoy our Lord of the Rings hardcore RP server. For those of you who are new to the concept, this means that not only will you be attacking monsters, leveling up, and going on adventures, you will also be privy to an excellent storyline that starts with you. You will have the opportunity to join our world, create your character, and start your adventure! Along the way, you may meet new friends or create bitter enemies. Your character might start a business, become embroiled in politics, or perhaps discover one of many dark secrets best kept hidden. Everything is up to you! With a community that has already been started by players from our previous server, be prepared to enter a world of conflict and intrigue, where a single choice might radically alter the fate of the world. Who knows what could happen? We're looking forward to meeting you in our rendition of the Fourth Age. Good luck!
Note: In an attempt to foster better understanding between the admins and the players, we are considering a Q&A video. If you have a question, don’t hesitate to ask. If we have enough responses, we will get together in a Skype call and answer them. We hope to hear from you guys soon!
Second Note: The Ringscraft server is currently CLOSED as we await release. However, we are accepting applications at the moment.Server Information
What is the setting of this server? The Server takes place in the Eriador region of Middle Earth, nearly 130 years after the destruction of the ring.
What this server offers
* A 100% hand made map, no Minecraft Generation * Custom lore based of Tolkien’s * Different races * A friendly roleplaying environment * Multiple unique class options * A close, friendly community on skype as well as in game and on our website * The freedom to be a fighter or to pursue more peaceful occupation.
Now, you may be wondering, what sets this server apart from any and all other LotR servers? Well, we've done the unthinkable, we've broken lore *gasp*. This server was born out of our of appreciation for Lord of the Rings RP, but also distaste for it's more limiting factors. However well the story of a LotR server is executed, it is always just a story. Pushing players through scripted events that do not change and giving them no chance to make their mark on the world. That has changed with Ringscraft. We've taken the massive background and lore of the Tolkien Legendarium, and erased all of the events of the Fourth Age. Our own revised Fourth Age is meant to allow players to truly have an effect of the events of the server. Thus, we have the solid base of Tolkien's Legendarium as well as having the flexibility of of a self created story. So go ahead!While Ringscraft is an RP server, we recognize that to some players, PvP is a very rewarding experience. Thus, while RPPvP is considered to be the standard form of combat in this server, those wishing to partake in PvP may do so under some conditions. All terms of the PvP must be determined by BOTH parties beforehand. We will not tolerate players who roam the countryside, attacking players who don’t want to fight and stealing all of their items. Both people must agree to PvP before it is allowed. Finally, during server events (such as a siege on a castle) PvP WILL be permitted. Thus, while events have substantial rewards, there is also a potential for danger during them.
Nályë alatulya síssë. Alámenë! (You’re welcome here. Go with a good blessing!) Lore Here is a link to all of our lore:https://docs.google....yyF4/edit?pli=1 For those of you who would like some background information on the different races as well as some tips on how to create your character, please refer below to our races information.
Breelanders Hailing from Bree and it’s surrounding areas, Breelanders are a simple, rustic folk. Once, they served the High King of Arnor during the days of its might. But when the northern kingdom fell, Bree remained as a prominent center of the north.Breelanders often have simple, English names such as Tom, Bill, and Will/Ellie, Clara, and Lucy.
Men of Dale Living under the shadow of the Lonely Mountain, the men from Dale are a tenacious people. Surviving many battles with the Easterlings from Rhun, it was their king, Bard the Bowman, who killed Smaug the dragon with the Black Arrow of Dale.Men from Dale tend to have Anglo-Saxon names such as Beoferth, Hesric, and Ordwulf/Ceofled, Leofwen, and Cynbur.
The Rohirrim The horse lords of Rohan were once a proud people. However, when the Haradrim swept through the south, their kingdom was lost. Now, the survivors seek to start again in Eriador. Many hold a simmering anger at the Haradrim who destroyed their home.The Rohirrim generally to have Anglo-Saxon names such as Beoferth, Hesric, and Ordwulf/Ceofled, Leofwen, and Cynbur.
Gondorians Coming from the south of Middle Earth, the Gondorians have been reduced to refugees. Once the proudest kingdom of men, it’s people are now scattered around Eriador. Still, the pride and dignity of their Numenorean heritage has not been entirely forgotten.Gondorians almost always have Sindarin (Grey Elven) names such as Ambor, Halrond, and Barahad/Nimraen, Findwen, and Saeldis.
Haradrim/Easterlings Simply a name for all the men who live south or east of Gondor, the Haradrim and Easterlings are a powerful and diverse military force. Clad in red and brown, donning brazen scales and wielding wicked sabers, they are an organized and terrifying menace atop their war Oliphaunts.The Haradrim have many, varied names such as Brodda, Khamul, and Uldor/Kuzu, Yileke, and Markiz.
Hobbits Standing under 4 feet tall, these simple farmers and herdsmen from the Shire are not to be discounted. While they have taken a more active role in the Eriador as of late, they are still renowned for their love of peace and their skill in growing things.Hobbits have simple or on occasion, Gothic/Frankish names. Hobbit women tend to be named after plants or gemstones. Some names include Sam, Everbras, and Robin/Bell, Mirabella, and Hanna.
Dwarves Since the 7 fathers of the dwarves awoke in Middle Earth, dwarves have always had an affinity for mining and crafting. Stout, strong, and unmoving, they are all but immune to the allure of power, but are often swayed by the prospect of riches.Dwarves normally have simple Norse names such as Anar, Ginar, and Kosi/Hón, Már, and Kóna.
Goblins The natural enemy of the Dwarves, the Goblins are a race of smaller orcs. Highly varied in appearance, they have recently been accepted rather grudgingly into the cities of men. With a natural affinity for scavenging and thievery, they are always ready for mischief.Goblins have names in the Black Speech of Mordor such as Bolg, Gorshag, Radthak, Nagrat, Zagrad, and Yagaz.

For a list of RP laws, please refer to the spoiler below.
((This is a list of RP laws to abide by (or not!). What that means is that these are IC laws only. If you break them, you will not be banned or punished by the admins or moderators directly. However, if you are caught in character breaking these laws, you may suffer in character punishment. If you break many of these laws, you will become a criminal IC, but you will NOT be kicked, banned, etc. Please remember that it is up to you whether you want to report/accuse someone of an in character crime. Also, remember to check here often as new rules may be added or changed.))
The cities and rulers of the land hath deemed these activities as criminal in nature. Shouldst thou be caught engaging in such activities, it is within the right of the guards to apprehend thee and placeth thee under arrest. Thou canst lose money and or be forced to endure a night in jail which shall be most unpleasant.

If you don't, you will be arrested.))Finally, if thou hast an ID that thou canst show the authorities, thou art more likely to get off with less punishment.
Classes Classes play a large role in the server. All players choose a Profession Class and a Combat class. Profession classes limit what a player can craft or break. These classes are the same for each race, and create a diverse economy. Ie: Only miners can break iron and gold ore. Only smiths can craft iron or gold armor.Combat classes are obviously for, combat. There are three combat classes, Warrior, Archer, and Healer. These classes do vary from race to race, creating a more accurate and fair PVP enviorment. Keep in mind that these classes will not automatically make you a warrior, archer, or a healer. A bartender who has never handled a sword in his life can still be considered a warrior due to the fact that his natural preference is to fight like a warrior (up close with a melee weapon).
Profession Classes Miner -The miners of Middle-earth! They can mine/smelt ores. Smith - From armor to swords to tools, these guys can forge it! They can ever smelt their own ores. Farmer- For anyone interested in the business of food! He can grow and harvest advanced crops. Gather - A man of the wilderness! Fishing and logging are his prime skills.
Combat Classes Warrior-These fighters are comfortable up close, taking hits and dealing out high damage with heavy armor to protect them in the thick of combat. Archer - These fighters are skilled with the bow, being more attuned to distance combat and agility. Highly adaptable and skilled, their arrows are feared by all. Healer- Those of who choose healing have a special devotion to keeping others and themselves alive both on and off the battlefield.

Before you create your character, please read this spoiler in order to get a grasp of how we quantify skill levels.
When it comes to RP combat, there is invariably going to be some confusion as to what constitutes a "master" or an "expert" and so on. To address this, we have created a basic guideline in order for players to base their character's skills off of. Keep in mind that this is NOT a strict rulebook and we don't expect you to start numbering off your skill levels in your applications. We would however, like you to keep in mind where (in general) your character lies on the scale in terms of aptitude in certain skills. The skills below have been divided into 5 ranks. Basic, adept, skilled, and expert are the first four and can be used by any player when they first create their character. However as we've detailed in our application, the fifth rank, master, is off limits when you first create your character (unless you petition us with a very convincing request). The first three skills we have chosen to display are "close combat", "archery", and "healing/loremastery". Keep in mind that these do not change your "heroes level", they merely address your RP actions.

And please no stories like this : His/her parents were killed by orcs. He/she trained, found the orcs, and killed them all. The end. (You cannot be anyone important in the server without being approved, you need to work your way to the top.)]:My name is, Aperhi. My story… is very interesting, most of you would like to hear it, but others, they do not care. Ever since I was but a mere boy I have been getting into trouble. Untying the rope to the boats at the dock, to stealing food to save my life from starvation. That one day. I was out in the nearby forest of Hobbiton; I was looking for apples to eat. When I saw a little calf. I approached it slowly, hoping I could give him an apple for him to like me. I slowly walked towards him, closer and closer I got. He saw the apple in my hand. He had started walking towards me. Then all the sudden many bandits came out of the forest, and just killed it right in front of me. But that was the least of my worries. The bandits saw me and tried to kill me. I ran and ran, until I found a huge tree. I had climbed the tree to safety. Only one of the bandits looked found me. Then he drew his bow straight at me. I started throwing all my apples at him, he was distracted by them. So I jumped down grabbed an arrow and killed him. I rapidly just kept on stabbing him over and over until, the other four found me, and grabbed me. They were about to execute me when the leader of the group had yelled “STOP”. I looked up and saw him staring at me. He then whispered to the executioner, loud enough for me to hear him, “this is the boy that killed that soldier, right?” The executioner then said loudly “yes”. The leader looked at me and said you are one tough little ******* aren’t ya. I stood there, as he yelled “release him!” They loosened the rope and pushed me forth. He then said to me you are now a part of our group son. I looked at him confused. He then said “you know how to fight?” I said in a small voice, “y-y-yes mister.” He said “good…” then all of the other bandits took me to their barracks. I looked around to see many eyes staring at me from tables, filled with cups of ale. Most of them whispered to their buddies then started laughing. My face the turned red. After I was given the standard leather armor, which all soldiers wore except the higher ranking ones, they trained me to fight. They had me do petty thievery to travelers along the road. When the food ran out they would also tell me to go to Bree and steal food from apples to steak. One night I was woken early from the leader saying “this is the biggest mission yet!” We quickly moved out of their camp to do what they said the biggest mission ever. All I heard was all the soldiers whispering about how they are going to get so many gold coins after this “raid”. When we arrived at our “destination” I saw many lights, I quickly looked over the hill to see the town named Bree. By then I had many memories of the day I was abandoned there, by my parents and raised in an orphanage. The leader yelled “we all ready for this!?” all the other soldier yelled enthusiastically “yes we are!” there was a moment of silence, and then he yelled “go!” everyone ran down the hill to raid the town Bree. I had to follow them there so I ran behind them all. All they had given me was 10 arrows and a horrid bow that could barely shoot 20 feet. We all ran into Bree knocking down the gates. Right when we got through gates the slaughtering began. So I quickly ran with all my might to the orphanage. I ran in when I saw Eosin the lady that ran the establishment of the orphanage, I had loved her dearly for taking care of me, so said to her “let’s go!” she then said “Aperhi what are you talking about?” I grabbed her to go out the front door when another bandit ran in and went “outta my way kid this girl looks like she’s mine!” I then shot him with my bow, it had killed him. We both ran out of the building leaving the body. A town guard saw us, run out of there, he yelled for us to stop… I turned and shot him too. Eosin went to turn and I just pushed her forward. I got Eosin safely out of Bree. Today the bandit clan and the town of Bree want me dead. But that has not stopped me. All I want is Eosin to be safe. I brought her to the forest where I made a secret hideout for us to stay. I rarely make trips anywhere. They all want me dead. But that wouldn't stop me from protecting Eosin. Every day we hid in the shadows, hiding from both bandits and guards. From my training I learned very much to climb very fast and shoot arrows quickly. So I would go to all the nearby villages and climb in threw the walls. Most of the merchants were very unwise, so I could just scam them out of their goods. One night I came back to Eosin and I’s hideout in the forest. I saw bright light followed by burning wood. Our hideout was on fire, I stood there looking at the fire then I thought Eosin was in there. I ran through the fire looking for her. All of our stolen and scammed goods we’re taken, and so was Eosin. I was so saddened that I kept thinking she was in there. I was looking everywhere for her. I ran into our bedroom, when a flaming beam off the roof hit me. It had burned my face. I quickly ran out of the blaze of fire getting to safety. I looked in our pond to see my reflection. It was horrible my face was barely recognizable. None of the townsfolk recognized me anymore. Neither do the guards. I can stay in Bree, but I insist on wearing this hood. Till this day, I still scam merchants and townsfolk out of their money. Only to survive long enough to keep looking for Eosin. I will look for Eosin until I die. Those bandits will pay for what they have done to me and Eosin. I will find them .Roleplay Example (A conversation/fight between your character and someone else.

The end. (You cannot be anyone important in the server without being approved, you need to work your way to the top.)]: Elessar, hailing from just below Forodwaith, is of poor blood, and a family of thieves. For all his life he has been training in the way of the rogue with his father. Ever since Elessar's mother was killed, him and his father, Hasrond, became even poorer and more desperate for food and coin. Elessar and his father still are barely able to manage as they are highly trained in the art of cloak and dagger. They merely live off of contracts and frequent thievery. When Elessars mother passed away, he was given a ruby stone amulet, forever exalting him unknowingly into a binding of great secret. A secret so powerful and unknown, not even a grand sorcerer or an elder warlock can conceive One day, though, as he waltz's down the road to the lands, he clumsily trips, and his mysterious amulet falls on the ground right in front of his puzzled face. As the bejeweled amulet reveals an image to him of something inconceivable. He now bears the burden of a secret of ancient solemn truth, and may give him great grief to live with. Not even the strongest of Orcs could bear such stress. Now, young Elessar, at the age of only 27, sets out to start his new life, leaving his dad behind. Elessar must now find out what this solemn sign means, and start out on his adventure...

In Character(IC) INFO:
Name: CottonTook
Race: A male Hobbit
Combat class: Archer
Profession class: Farmer
Age: About 25-30
Character Backstory: Cotton Took was a Hobbit and yes, Cotton was a Took. One of the most powerful Hobbit families in Middle earth at his Grandfathers time. His Grandfather was one of the Mayors of Hobbiton, Peregrin Took who also owned the successful Peregrin's bits and Pieces trading company. Porto's country Steed farm,where Peregrin was half owner, was the largest and most productive farm in all of Hobbiton. Peregrin and Porto was more wealthy then the highest kings in Middle earth until their last days.
Cotton used to play in the wheat fields while he was young. Jump around, play hide and seek with his friends. They also liked to tease spiders with the spider-proof fence. He wasn't that kind of child that used to do all sorts of trickery against others. He did as he were told without hesitation. Well... almost without hesitation. He wasn't that keen to be on cat patrol around the farm. Cats weren't welcome at the farm. Cats have a thing for chickens you see. They like to bite their heads and scratch their feathers clean off making them not usable for anything at all. Roasted chicken filled with carrots were one of the farm's specialties and since "The Cat Incident", cats have never been allowed to set their paws within 50 blocks radius of the outer walls.
Everybody passes away, even Hobbits and not even the richest can put a stopper to death. Months after Peregrin died, an Orc raid swept across the farm. They took everything they owned. Their Cakes, their Potatoes, their Pumpkins. The only thing that was left, were the cats. Those blasted cats! After the Orcs stole the cows, they burnt the farm to the ground. The villagers had their heads chopped off and the guards fled into the forest. Never to be seen again.
Cotton's father tried to build up the business over and over again, but failed every single time. He tried to get help from Peregrin's old friends, but the only help they could get was from Bree. One room, with 20% discount. Breakfast included. Cotton's father got a job at the stables and earned enough to make a living for them both. Days passed and became months, months became years and in the end, old age put Cotton's father to sleep and Cotton got kicked out of the Inn and onto the streets. He now had to find a way to make money himself. Either honest work or not.
Roleplay Example: Whilst wandering through the forests Cotton come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapsed infront of him and fell to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket fell a small pouch of gold coins, which hit the ground and split open and coins spread across the pathway. The man lie there, defenseless. Cotton walked up to the man and stood up while staring at him, lying there. He thought about what to do and ran into the bushes. He came out seconds later with his hands filled with leaves and branches. He then pushed the man into the ditch at the side of the road and burried him under all the stuff that he found in the forest. He then put his pouch of gold in the old man's jacket. "There we go! Hidden! He'll probably thank me later". He rethought about him thanking him and then he found his pouch again and he took three golden coins before he place it back and walk away.
Personality traits: Sneaky, Loyal, Weak
Physical description and/or image of skin?: Dark eyes, Blue coat, Green-ish scarf and Chocolate brown hair.
Skills: Light Feeted, Good aim
Weakness: Weak, Clumsy
What is his/her ultimate goal? Reach his fathers goal about "reestablish" Peregrin's Bits and Pieces. (And rename if, of course.)

Name (Please give your Character a name that fits with your race):Moro Brownlock
Race (Go see the race section higher up. And is he a man or a woman):Haradrim Male
Age:28
Character Backstory [It should be about 3 paragraphs, 400 words or more.]: Moro Brownlock was born into his family in 4E 99 to the Haradrim clan. His mother, Lobelia died in 4E 117 and he and his father, Dara mourned greatly over her unexpected death. 4 years later it was reported that King Aragorn died. Rumors spread around the fortress of a war against Gondor and the expansion of their home land. Moro signed up for the Haradrim army and was accepted. 2 weeks later they charged out for war, destroying every city and town on the way.
As they marched on for Minas Tirith they left more and more men as those men were put in charge of defending the new annexed territory for their clan. At last they came to the Pelenor Fields they were met by a weak and disorganised army with a man who looked like their leader, who was blathering on about peace and prosperity between the Haradrim and Gondor. In the end the commander of the Haradrim’s army slew him by stabbing him repeatedly. The rest of the troops were slain and they moved on to the capital. Some little resistance was encountered but in the end all left were brutely murdered and The White City was captured.
For about a week Moro was stationed at Minas Tirith to defend against any attacks but there wern’t any. In the week he heard of the fall of Edoras and the escape of the Gondorians there. Moro was sent back to his former squad taking a well deserved break in Edoras for a day or so. He was astonished by the amount of men and women that died during the battle against the Rohirrim on both sides. At Edoras he was given a mission to infiltrate Bree before the Gondorians could get there so he could start an uprising against strangers coming into their town and kill the last of Rohans people aswell as Gondors and to enlist the service of a great orc of Mordor named Kharag who could delay the people of Gondor and now the children of Rohan too. He almost met some of the Swan Knights at the gate of Rivendell but he snuck by and avoided the elven city entirely it took him the best part of a day but the people didn’t march for Bree. While Moro was on the stretch towards Bree he ran into a large pack of orcs, they were about to kill him when he stated his buisness and Kharag steped forward. Moro told Kharag to delay Ringanwe and Prince Elrohir at all costs. The vicious orcs happily agreed and waited on the road. Moro made it to the town and started living on the backstreets and waiting until he could find a bandit to sell him an illegal passport. Then when the Charter of Eriador was brokered he encountered a messenger directly from Harad. The masters of Harad wanted the heads of all the Rohirrim and Gondorians people in Eriador starting with Bree. Moro then decided that it was time to start stirring a revolution to send the peace to a sudden end.
And that is where our story begins...... ;-)
Roleplay Example (A conversation/fight between your character and someone else. We want to see how well you can Roleplay.): (Moro and his friend Sithis conversing while sitting on a wall in the base at night) "Moro did you hear about the death of Lord Aragorn?" "Why no I didn't, and is that why the troops are being rallied?" "I belive so but I can't be certain." "Thank you for the warning , my brother."
Physical description and/or image of skin?: Deep blue eyes, a fair face but covered by a hood (Main part of face is visible) and jet black hair
Skills:Good with a blade, good at talking his way out of trouble, good at mining
Weakness:Weak aim with an bow, bad at farming, bad at digging
What is his/her ultimate goal?:To rid Eriador and Middle-Earth of all Gondorians and Rohhirim.
It's actually really good but I found 4 faults in no particular order
1. I would stay away from talking about a Gondorian general speaking about peace and being stabbed. Cause you should try your best to stay away from conflicting with lore and it's a little off-topic
2. To be fair, their was no woman or children killed on the Haradrim side... And even if their were how does effect your character?
3. I don't think you can take the important role of singularly dealing with the legendary Kharag
4. I would also look over it for punctuation and spelling errors and add paragraphs

My story… is very interesting, most of you would like to hear it, but others, they do not care. Ever since I was but a mere boy I have been getting into trouble. Untying the rope to the boats at the dock, to stealing food to save my life from starvation. That one day. I was out in the nearby forest of Hobbiton; I was looking for apples to eat. When I saw a little calf. I approached it slowly, hoping I could give him an apple for him to like me. I slowly walked towards him, closer and closer I got. He saw the apple in my hand. He had started walking towards me. Then all the sudden many bandits came out of the forest, and just killed it right in front of me. But that was the least of my worries. The bandits saw me and tried to kill me. I ran and ran, until I found a huge tree. I had climbed the tree to safety. Only one of the bandits looked found me. Then he drew his bow straight at me. I started throwing all my apples at him, he was distracted by them. So I jumped down grabbed an arrow and killed him. I rapidly just kept on stabbing him over and over until, the other four found me, and grabbed me. They were about to execute me when the leader of the group had yelled “STOP”. I looked up and saw him staring at me. He then whispered to the executioner, loud enough for me to hear him, “this is the boy that killed that soldier, right?” The executioner then said loudly “yes”. The leader looked at me and said you are one tough little ******* aren’t ya. I stood there, as he yelled “release him!” They loosened the rope and pushed me forth. He then said to me you are now a part of our group son. I looked at him confused. He then said “you know how to fight?” I said in a small voice, “y-y-yes mister.” He said “good…” then all of the other bandits took me to their barracks. I looked around to see many eyes staring at me from tables, filled with cups of ale. Most of them whispered to their buddies then started laughing. My face the turned red. After I was given the standard leather armor, which all soldiers wore except the higher ranking ones, they trained me to fight. They had me do petty thievery to travelers along the road. When the food ran out they would also tell me to go to Bree and steal food from apples to steak. One night I was told to break-into a couple of stores in Bree. Some of the stores I had stolen from had food and money in the backrooms. But one of them I was especially told to steal from was the orphanage. I knew that Eosin still worked there, by seeing her walking the young children around the town, in order to open them to the world. I couldn't steal from the orphanage. If Eosin saw me she would never forgive me. She raised me as her own child, feeding me extra food from lunch. I would never break her heart. So, instead of stealing from the orphanage I put the merchandise back in the stores and headed back to the bandit hideout. I told the leader that I could not do it. He and his servants were angry that I had not turned out like all the others. For my punishment they were to hang me. The bandits were ignorant enough to tie my binding’s wrong the night before that I was able to get away. I knew the bandits were to go after Eosin in the town. I had to act fast in order to save Eosin from the bandits. I ran into Bree to the orphanage, Eosin was there. I said to Eosin “We must leave Bree now!”, but she was confused so I had to drag her out of the town. The whole way out of the town she asked why I was doing this, but I never answered her in hope I would explain it far away. Right when we were out of the town I saw around 3 bandits walk into the orphanage looking for her. Today the bandit clan and the town of Bree want me dead. But that has not stopped me. All I want is Eosin to be safe. I brought her to the forest where I made a secret hideout for us to stay. I rarely make trips anywhere. They all want me and Eosin dead. But that wouldn't stop me from protecting Eosin at all costs. Every day we hide in the shadows, hiding from bandits. From my training I learned very much to climb very fast and shoot arrows quickly. So I would go to all the nearby villages and climb in threw the walls. Most of the merchants were very unwise, so I could just scam them out of their goods. One night I came back to Eosin and I’s hideout in the forest. I saw bright light followed by burning wood. Our hideout was on fire, I stood there looking at the fire then I thought Eosin was in there. I ran through the fire looking for her. All of our stolen and scammed goods we’re taken, and so was Eosin. I was so saddened that I kept thinking she was in there. I was looking everywhere for her. I ran into our bedroom, when a flaming beam off the roof hit me. It had burned my face. I quickly ran out of the blaze of fire getting to safety. I looked in our pond to see my reflection. It was horrible my face was barely recognizable. None of the townsfolk recognized me anymore. Neither do the bandits. I can stay in Bree, but I insist on wearing this hood. Till this day, I still scam merchants and townsfolk out of their money. Only to survive long enough to keep looking for Eosin. I will look for Eosin until I die. Those bandits will pay for what they have done to me and Eosin. I will find them. Roleplay Example (A conversation/fight between your character and someone else. We want to see how well you can Roleplay.): Breelander: Hey aren't ya that boy from the orphanage in Bree?Aperhi: Are you talking to me old man?Breelander: Old Man? Pah!

Eriador, year 127 of the Fourth Age. A second darkness has swept over Middle Earth. With a new army of dark men from the south having driven the Free People to the fringes of the north, an uneasy peace now lingers. In this time, new forces vie for power with one another and both heroes and villains arise from the conflict. It is a world divided into light and shadow.Welcome to Ringscraft, a Lord of the Rings roleplay server! Our team of admins invites you to enjoy our Lord of the Rings hardcore RP server. For those of you who are new to the concept, this means that not only will you be attacking monsters, leveling up, and going on adventures, you will also be privy to an excellent storyline that starts with you. You will have the opportunity to join our world, create your character, and start your adventure! Along the way, you may meet new friends or create bitter enemies. Your character might start a business, become embroiled in politics, or perhaps discover one of many dark secrets best kept hidden. Everything is up to you! With a community that has already been started by players from our previous server, be prepared to enter a world of conflict and intrigue, where a single choice might radically alter the fate of the world. Who knows what could happen? We're looking forward to meeting you in our rendition of the Fourth Age. Good luck!
Note: In an attempt to foster better understanding between the admins and the players, we are considering a Q&A video. If you have a question, don’t hesitate to ask. If we have enough responses, we will get together in a Skype call and answer them. We hope to hear from you guys soon!
Second Note: The Ringscraft server is currently CLOSED as we await release. However, we are accepting applications at the moment.Server Information
What is the setting of this server?
The Server takes place in the Eriador region of Middle Earth, nearly 130 years after the destruction of the ring.
What this server offers
* A 100% hand made map, no Minecraft Generation
* Custom lore based of Tolkien’s
* Different races
* A friendly roleplaying environment
* Multiple unique class options
* A close, friendly community on skype as well as in game and on our website
* The freedom to be a fighter or to pursue more peaceful occupation.
Now, you may be wondering, what sets this server apart from any and all other LotR servers? Well, we've done the unthinkable, we've broken lore *gasp*. This server was born out of our of appreciation for Lord of the Rings RP, but also distaste for it's more limiting factors. However well the story of a LotR server is executed, it is always just a story. Pushing players through scripted events that do not change and giving them no chance to make their mark on the world. That has changed with Ringscraft. We've taken the massive background and lore of the Tolkien Legendarium, and erased all of the events of the Fourth Age. Our own revised Fourth Age is meant to allow players to truly have an effect of the events of the server. Thus, we have the solid base of Tolkien's Legendarium as well as having the flexibility of of a self created story. So go ahead!While Ringscraft is an RP server, we recognize that to some players, PvP is a very rewarding experience. Thus, while RPPvP is considered to be the standard form of combat in this server, those wishing to partake in PvP may do so under some conditions. All terms of the PvP must be determined by BOTH parties beforehand. We will not tolerate players who roam the countryside, attacking players who don’t want to fight and stealing all of their items. Both people must agree to PvP before it is allowed. Finally, during server events (such as a siege on a castle) PvP WILL be permitted. Thus, while events have substantial rewards, there is also a potential for danger during them.
Nályë alatulya síssë. Alámenë! (You’re welcome here. Go with a good blessing!)
Lore
Here is a link to all of our lore:https://docs.google....yyF4/edit?pli=1
For those of you who would like some background information on the different races as well as some tips on how to create your character, please refer below to our races information.
Breelanders
Hailing from Bree and it’s surrounding areas, Breelanders are a simple, rustic folk. Once, they served the High King of Arnor during the days of its might. But when the northern kingdom fell, Bree remained as a prominent center of the north.Breelanders often have simple, English names such as Tom, Bill, and Will/Ellie, Clara, and Lucy.
Men of Dale
Living under the shadow of the Lonely Mountain, the men from Dale are a tenacious people. Surviving many battles with the Easterlings from Rhun, it was their king, Bard the Bowman, who killed Smaug the dragon with the Black Arrow of Dale.Men from Dale tend to have Anglo-Saxon names such as Beoferth, Hesric, and Ordwulf/Ceofled, Leofwen, and Cynbur.
The Rohirrim
The horse lords of Rohan were once a proud people. However, when the Haradrim swept through the south, their kingdom was lost. Now, the survivors seek to start again in Eriador. Many hold a simmering anger at the Haradrim who destroyed their home.The Rohirrim generally to have Anglo-Saxon names such as Beoferth, Hesric, and Ordwulf/Ceofled, Leofwen, and Cynbur.
Gondorians
Coming from the south of Middle Earth, the Gondorians have been reduced to refugees. Once the proudest kingdom of men, it’s people are now scattered around Eriador. Still, the pride and dignity of their Numenorean heritage has not been entirely forgotten.Gondorians almost always have Sindarin (Grey Elven) names such as Ambor, Halrond, and Barahad/Nimraen, Findwen, and Saeldis.
Haradrim/Easterlings
Simply a name for all the men who live south or east of Gondor, the Haradrim and Easterlings are a powerful and diverse military force. Clad in red and brown, donning brazen scales and wielding wicked sabers, they are an organized and terrifying menace atop their war Oliphaunts.The Haradrim have many, varied names such as Brodda, Khamul, and Uldor/Kuzu, Yileke, and Markiz.
Hobbits
Standing under 4 feet tall, these simple farmers and herdsmen from the Shire are not to be discounted. While they have taken a more active role in the Eriador as of late, they are still renowned for their love of peace and their skill in growing things.Hobbits have simple or on occasion, Gothic/Frankish names. Hobbit women tend to be named after plants or gemstones. Some names include Sam, Everbras, and Robin/Bell, Mirabella, and Hanna.
Dwarves
Since the 7 fathers of the dwarves awoke in Middle Earth, dwarves have always had an affinity for mining and crafting. Stout, strong, and unmoving, they are all but immune to the allure of power, but are often swayed by the prospect of riches.Dwarves normally have simple Norse names such as Anar, Ginar, and Kosi/Hón, Már, and Kóna.
Goblins
The natural enemy of the Dwarves, the Goblins are a race of smaller orcs. Highly varied in appearance, they have recently been accepted rather grudgingly into the cities of men.

Also, remember to check here often as new rules may be added or changed.))
The cities and rulers of the land hath deemed these activities as criminal in nature.

If you don't, you will be arrested.))Finally, if thou hast an ID that thou canst show the authorities, thou art more likely to get off with less punishment.
Classes
Classes play a large role in the server. All players choose a Profession Class and a Combat class. Profession classes limit what a player can craft or break. These classes are the same for each race, and create a diverse economy. Ie: Only miners can break iron and gold ore. Only smiths can craft iron or gold armor.Combat classes are obviously for, combat. There are three combat classes, Warrior, Archer, and Healer. These classes do vary from race to race, creating a more accurate and fair PVP enviorment. Keep in mind that these classes will not automatically make you a warrior, archer, or a healer. A bartender who has never handled a sword in his life can still be considered a warrior due to the fact that his natural preference is to fight like a warrior (up close with a melee weapon).
Profession Classes
Miner - The miners of Middle-earth! They can mine/smelt ores.
Smith - From armor to swords to tools, these guys can forge it! They can ever smelt their own ores.
Farmer - For anyone interested in the business of food! He can grow and harvest advanced crops.
Gather - A man of the wilderness! Fishing and logging are his prime skills.
Combat Classes
Warrior- These fighters are comfortable up close, taking hits and dealing out high damage with heavy armor to protect them in the thick of combat.
Archer - These fighters are skilled with the bow, being more attuned to distance combat and agility. Highly adaptable and skilled, their arrows are feared by all.
Healer- Those of who choose healing have a special devotion to keeping others and themselves alive both on and off the battlefield.

Before you create your character, please read this spoiler in order to get a grasp of how we quantify skill levels.
When it comes to RP combat, there is invariably going to be some confusion as to what constitutes a "master" or an "expert" and so on. To address this, we have created a basic guideline in order for players to base their character's skills off of. Keep in mind that this is NOT a strict rulebook and we don't expect you to start numbering off your skill levels in your applications. We would however, like you to keep in mind where (in general) your character lies on the scale in terms of aptitude in certain skills. The skills below have been divided into 5 ranks. Basic, adept, skilled, and expert are the first four and can be used by any player when they first create their character. However as we've detailed in our application, the fifth rank, master, is off limits when you first create your character (unless you petition us with a very convincing request). The first three skills we have chosen to display are "close combat", "archery", and "healing/loremastery". Keep in mind that these do not change your "heroes level", they merely address your RP actions.

We know it's a lot to take in and it can be hard to remember so we'll simply remind you not to do that.

Untying the rope to the boats at the dock, to stealing food to save my life from starvation. That one day. I was out in the nearby forest of Hobbiton; I was looking for apples to eat. When I saw a little calf. I approached it slowly, hoping I could give him an apple for him to like me. I slowly walked towards him, closer and closer I got. He saw the apple in my hand. He had started walking towards me. Then all the sudden many bandits came out of the forest, and just killed it right in front of me. But that was the least of my worries. The bandits saw me and tried to kill me. I ran and ran, until I found a huge tree. I had climbed the tree to safety. Only one of the bandits looked found me. Then he drew his bow straight at me. I started throwing all my apples at him, he was distracted by them. So I jumped down grabbed an arrow and killed him. I rapidly just kept on stabbing him over and over until, the other four found me, and grabbed me. They were about to execute me when the leader of the group had yelled “STOP”. I looked up and saw him staring at me. He then whispered to the executioner, loud enough for me to hear him, “this is the boy that killed that soldier, right?” The executioner then said loudly “yes”. The leader looked at me and said you are one tough little ******* aren’t ya. I stood there, as he yelled “release him!” They loosened the rope and pushed me forth. He then said to me you are now a part of our group son. I looked at him confused. He then said “you know how to fight?” I said in a small voice, “y-y-yes mister.” He said “good…” then all of the other bandits took me to their barracks. I looked around to see many eyes staring at me from tables, filled with cups of ale. Most of them whispered to their buddies then started laughing. My face the turned red. After I was given the standard leather armor, which all soldiers wore except the higher ranking ones, they trained me to fight. They had me do petty thievery to travelers along the road. When the food ran out they would also tell me to go to Bree and steal food from apples to steak. One night I was woken early from the leader saying “this is the biggest mission yet!” We quickly moved out of their camp to do what they said the biggest mission ever. All I heard was all the soldiers whispering about how they are going to get so many gold coins after this “raid”. When we arrived at our “destination” I saw many lights, I quickly looked over the hill to see the town named Bree. By then I had many memories of the day I was abandoned there, by my parents and raised in an orphanage. The leader yelled “we all ready for this!?” all the other soldier yelled enthusiastically “yes we are!” there was a moment of silence, and then he yelled “go!” everyone ran down the hill to raid the town Bree. I had to follow them there so I ran behind them all. All they had given me was 10 arrows and a horrid bow that could barely shoot 20 feet. We all ran into Bree knocking down the gates. Right when we got through gates the slaughtering began. So I quickly ran with all my might to the orphanage. I ran in when I saw Eosin the lady that ran the establishment of the orphanage, I had loved her dearly for taking care of me, so said to her “let’s go!” she then said “Aperhi what are you talking about?” I grabbed her to go out the front door when another bandit ran in and went “outta my way kid this girl looks like she’s mine!” I then shot him with my bow, it had killed him. We both ran out of the building leaving the body. A town guard saw us, run out of there, he yelled for us to stop… I turned and shot him too. Eosin went to turn and I just pushed her forward. I got Eosin safely out of Bree. Today the bandit clan and the town of Bree want me dead. But that has not stopped me. All I want is Eosin to be safe. I brought her to the forest where I made a secret hideout for us to stay. I rarely make trips anywhere. They all want me dead. But that wouldn't stop me from protecting Eosin. Every day we hid in the shadows, hiding from both bandits and guards. From my training I learned very much to climb very fast and shoot arrows quickly. So I would go to all the nearby villages and climb in threw the walls. Most of the merchants were very unwise, so I could just scam them out of their goods. One night I came back to Eosin and I’s hideout in the forest. I saw bright light followed by burning wood. Our hideout was on fire, I stood there looking at the fire then I thought Eosin was in there. I ran through the fire looking for her. All of our stolen and scammed goods we’re taken, and so was Eosin. I was so saddened that I kept thinking she was in there. I was looking everywhere for her. I ran into our bedroom, when a flaming beam off the roof hit me. It had burned my face. I quickly ran out of the blaze of fire getting to safety. I looked in our pond to see my reflection. It was horrible my face was barely recognizable. None of the townsfolk recognized me anymore. Neither do the guards. I can stay in Bree, but I insist on wearing this hood. Till this day, I still scam merchants and townsfolk out of their money. Only to survive long enough to keep looking for Eosin. I will look for Eosin until I die. Those bandits will pay for what they have done to me and Eosin. I will find them .Roleplay Example (A conversation/fight between your character and someone else.

Elessar, hailing from just below Forodwaith, is of poor blood, and a family of thieves. For all his life he has been training in the way of the rogue with his father. Ever since Elessar's mother was killed, him and his father, Hasrond, became even poorer and more desperate for food and coin. Elessar and his father still are barely able to manage as they are highly trained in the art of cloak and dagger. They merely live off of contracts and frequent thievery.
When Elessars mother passed away, he was given a ruby stone amulet, forever exalting him unknowingly into a binding of great secret. A secret so powerful and unknown, not even a grand sorcerer or an elder warlock can conceive One day, though, as he waltz's down the road to the lands, he clumsily trips, and his mysterious amulet falls on the ground right in front of his puzzled face. As the bejeweled amulet reveals an image to him of something inconceivable. He now bears the burden of a secret of ancient solemn truth, and may give him great grief to live with. Not even the strongest of Orcs could bear such stress.
Now, young Elessar, at the age of only 27, sets out to start his new life, leaving his dad behind. Elessar must now find out what this solemn sign means, and start out on his adventure...

In Character(IC) INFO:
Name: Cotton Took
Race: A male Hobbit
Combat class: Archer
Profession class: Farmer
Age: About 25-30
Character Backstory: Cotton Took was a Hobbit and yes, Cotton was a Took. One of the most powerful Hobbit families in Middle earth at his Grandfathers time. His Grandfather was one of the Mayors of Hobbiton, Peregrin Took who also owned the successful Peregrin's bits and Pieces trading company. Porto's country Steed farm,where Peregrin was half owner, was the largest and most productive farm in all of Hobbiton. Peregrin and Porto was more wealthy then the highest kings in Middle earth until their last days.
Cotton used to play in the wheat fields while he was young. Jump around, play hide and seek with his friends. They also liked to tease spiders with the spider-proof fence. He wasn't that kind of child that used to do all sorts of trickery against others. He did as he were told without hesitation. Well... almost without hesitation. He wasn't that keen to be on cat patrol around the farm. Cats weren't welcome at the farm. Cats have a thing for chickens you see. They like to bite their heads and scratch their feathers clean off making them not usable for anything at all. Roasted chicken filled with carrots were one of the farm's specialties and since "The Cat Incident", cats have never been allowed to set their paws within 50 blocks radius of the outer walls.
Everybody passes away, even Hobbits and not even the richest can put a stopper to death. Months after Peregrin died, an Orc raid swept across the farm. They took everything they owned. Their Cakes, their Potatoes, their Pumpkins. The only thing that was left, were the cats. Those blasted cats! After the Orcs stole the cows, they burnt the farm to the ground. The villagers had their heads chopped off and the guards fled into the forest. Never to be seen again.
Cotton's father tried to build up the business over and over again, but failed every single time. He tried to get help from Peregrin's old friends, but the only help they could get was from Bree. One room, with 20% discount. Breakfast included. Cotton's father got a job at the stables and earned enough to make a living for them both. Days passed and became months, months became years and in the end, old age put Cotton's father to sleep and Cotton got kicked out of the Inn and onto the streets. He now had to find a way to make money himself. Either honest work or not.
Roleplay Example:
Whilst wandering through the forests Cotton come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapsed infront of him and fell to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket fell a small pouch of gold coins, which hit the ground and split open and coins spread across the pathway. The man lie there, defenseless. Cotton walked up to the man and stood up while staring at him, lying there. He thought about what to do and ran into the bushes. He came out seconds later with his hands filled with leaves and branches. He then pushed the man into the ditch at the side of the road and burried him under all the stuff that he found in the forest. He then put his pouch of gold in the old man's jacket. "There we go! Hidden! He'll probably thank me later". He rethought about him thanking him and then he found his pouch again and he took three golden coins before he place it back and walk away.
Personality traits: Sneaky, Loyal, Weak
Physical description and/or image of skin?: Dark eyes, Blue coat, Green-ish scarf and Chocolate brown hair.
Skills: Light Feeted, Good aim
Weakness: Weak, Clumsy
What is his/her ultimate goal? Reach his fathers goal about "reestablish" Peregrin's Bits and Pieces. (And rename if, of course.)
1. I would stay away from talking about a Gondorian general speaking about peace and being stabbed. Cause you should try your best to stay away from conflicting with lore and it's a little off-topic
2. To be fair, their was no woman or children killed on the Haradrim side... And even if their were how does effect your character?
3. I don't think you can take the important role of singularly dealing with the legendary Kharag
4. I would also look over it for punctuation and spelling errors and add paragraphs

The end. (You cannot be anyone important in the server without being approved, you need to work your way to the top.)]:My name is, Aperhi. My story… is very interesting, most of you would like to hear it, but others, they do not care. Ever since I was but a mere boy I have been getting into trouble. Untying the rope to the boats at the dock, to stealing food to save my life from starvation. That one day. I was out in the nearby forest of Hobbiton; I was looking for apples to eat. When I saw a little calf. I approached it slowly, hoping I could give him an apple for him to like me. I slowly walked towards him, closer and closer I got. He saw the apple in my hand. He had started walking towards me. Then all the sudden many bandits came out of the forest, and just killed it right in front of me. But that was the least of my worries. The bandits saw me and tried to kill me. I ran and ran, until I found a huge tree. I had climbed the tree to safety. Only one of the bandits looked found me. Then he drew his bow straight at me.

I looked up and saw him staring at me. He then whispered to the executioner, loud enough for me to hear him, “this is the boy that killed that soldier, right?” The executioner then said loudly “yes”. The leader looked at me and said you are one tough little ******* aren’t ya. I stood there, as he yelled “release him!” They loosened the rope and pushed me forth. He then said to me you are now a part of our group son. I looked at him confused. He then said “you know how to fight?” I said in a small voice, “y-y-yes mister.” He said “good…” then all of the other bandits took me to their barracks. I looked around to see many eyes staring at me from tables, filled with cups of ale. Most of them whispered to their buddies then started laughing. My face the turned red. After I was given the standard leather armor, which all soldiers wore except the higher ranking ones, they trained me to fight. They had me do petty thievery to travelers along the road. When the food ran out they would also tell me to go to Bree and steal food from apples to steak. One night I was told to break-into a couple of stores in Bree. Some of the stores I had stolen from had food and money in the backrooms. But one of them I was especially told to steal from was the orphanage. I knew that Eosin still worked there, by seeing her walking the young children around the town, in order to open them to the world. I couldn't steal from the orphanage. If Eosin saw me she would never forgive me. She raised me as her own child, feeding me extra food from lunch. I would never break her heart. So, instead of stealing from the orphanage I put the merchandise back in the stores and headed back to the bandit hideout. I told the leader that I could not do it. He and his servants were angry that I had not turned out like all the others. For my punishment they were to hang me. The bandits were ignorant enough to tie my binding’s wrong the night before that I was able to get away. I knew the bandits were to go after Eosin in the town. I had to act fast in order to save Eosin from the bandits. I ran into Bree to the orphanage, Eosin was there. I said to Eosin “We must leave Bree now!”, but she was confused so I had to drag her out of the town. The whole way out of the town she asked why I was doing this, but I never answered her in hope I would explain it far away. Right when we were out of the town I saw around 3 bandits walk into the orphanage looking for her. Today the bandit clan and the town of Bree want me dead. But that has not stopped me. All I want is Eosin to be safe. I brought her to the forest where I made a secret hideout for us to stay. I rarely make trips anywhere. They all want me and Eosin dead. But that wouldn't stop me from protecting Eosin at all costs. Every day we hide in the shadows, hiding from bandits. From my training I learned very much to climb very fast and shoot arrows quickly. So I would go to all the nearby villages and climb in threw the walls. Most of the merchants were very unwise, so I could just scam them out of their goods. One night I came back to Eosin and I’s hideout in the forest. I saw bright light followed by burning wood. Our hideout was on fire, I stood there looking at the fire then I thought Eosin was in there. I ran through the fire looking for her. All of our stolen and scammed goods we’re taken, and so was Eosin. I was so saddened that I kept thinking she was in there. I was looking everywhere for her. I ran into our bedroom, when a flaming beam off the roof hit me. It had burned my face. I quickly ran out of the blaze of fire getting to safety. I looked in our pond to see my reflection. It was horrible my face was barely recognizable. None of the townsfolk recognized me anymore. Neither do the bandits. I can stay in Bree, but I insist on wearing this hood. Till this day, I still scam merchants and townsfolk out of their money. Only to survive long enough to keep looking for Eosin. I will look for Eosin until I die. Those bandits will pay for what they have done to me and Eosin. I will find them.
