Citizen of the Chancellery or a member of the Medori?: Citizen of the Chancellery (Cause I'm sick of trying to make a Medori.)
Physical description: 5' 8" 184 lbs. Muscular, medium light brown hair, blue eyes, light tan skin.
Screen capture of your skin: Coming soon. Hopefully.
Biography (Minimum 400 words. Cannot include loved ones being killed, kidnapped, tortured, or the like, unless you can do it in a non-cliché manner.):
A wanted poster with a picture of a round faced man with black hair, hangs on walls and trees of a distant island. Below the picture it reads: WANTED: Raygo Bartles, 5' 8" light brown hair, blue eyes, mismatched fancy clothes. Raygo Bartles, is not who he appears to be. He is a crook, a trickster, a prankster and an all around ass of a man. He is wanted for fraud, trickery, and theft.
Raygo Bartles, looks at the picture of himself and frowns.
"My ears aren't that big!" he proclaims, and pushes his "Cart of Wonders", which is painted on the side of a wooden cart overflowing with strange objects, onto a ship and sails away into the night sky, singing: "Oh, yo ho ho. Ho ho ho, I'll play a trick on ye. Watch the coin, watch the cups. It'll never be the one you pick. A gambling, betting, tricking life for me. I'll trick you all, take your money, and leave you as poor as I once was."
Raygo Bartles grew up on a small island, his parents had abandoned him when he was ten. He had few memories of them, but knew one thing: He hated them!
They left him to die, and he resented them for that. He resented everyone. No one cared about him, he had to steal food to stay alive, hide in old houses whose only residents were rats.
One night it was so cold he could have frozen to death, but thankfully he was able to use the rats as a blanket... whether they were dead or alive I do not know...
After a while people in the town got used to his tricks and how he was stealing food, so they boarded up holes in walls, and changed their locks. Raygo, now sixteen, went hungry for many days and finally accepted his death. He sat in an empty barrel in the hull of a ship and waited to die.
He was abruptly awoken from his near comatose state when the barrel fell off the ship at it's destination and broke into pieces, revealing the starving boy inside.
The men of the ship growled and snarled at the scared boy as he stumbled back over the broken barrel planks. He turned and ran...
straight into the captain.
The captain smiled wide at the boy, his teeth rotted and decayed.
"You would make a fine member of me crew... Strong arms, you can lift big loads can't ye'?" the captain said in a grating voice.
Raygo nodded slowly.
The captain laughed, than coughed.
"Welcome to the crew, mate. *cough*"
After many years of Raygo working for the pirates, learning tricks, ways to pick locks, and most everything else a pirate knows. Like drink rum. Raygo felt like he found his calling. Piracy!
Some nights the crew would land on a small island build a campfire, drink rum, and tell stories.
Whenever it was Raygo's turn he would lie to everyone about being raised by paladins who died valiantly protecting their Church, but he didn't believe in all that mess. After some time he became a great storyteller, well liar...
After five years working on the ship and helping maintain the ship, he had a knack for machinery, he became first mate and took over for the captain when he died of liver failure. Since the captain was the only fatherly figure Raygo had in his life he became a little distant from the crew. And it was because of this gap between the crew and their captain they were caught and thrown in jail.
For four nights they sat in that miserable cell, until a few crew members that had escaped capture rescued the rest of the crew and their captain, Raygo.
Raygo was very thankful and vowed not to let the old captains death, and his emotions on the matter, get in the way of his responsibility to his crew.
And so Raygo led the pirates for three more years till a great storm wrecked the ship and killed almost all the crew.
Raygo and three men were stranded on a deserted island for days. Slowly the three crew members starved to death, but Raygo who had learned to overcome hunger, fought two more days till he was rescued.
Now having grown a beard, no one recognized him as the pirate captain. Raygo was slightly upset no one recognized him, the great work he had done.
Raygo took on a job at a local craftsman shop and learned many more things about building. He soon became an expert at his craft and was very famous on the island, but he needed more. It wasn't enough, he was greedy, he needed more!
Having learned some basic machinery Raygo set off as a street performer, pretending to be a sort of mage. He could build small, simple machines that could make unbelievable things appear to be happening. He could make a ball levitate, cut a woman in half, make whole wallets of coins disappear and reappear. He would also play games, like the cups and ball game. He would swindle lots of people out of their money with that one!
Occasionally the people of a town would get angry or find out what he was doing and try to arrest him, but he usually escaped capture or escaped the cell. He had many tricks up his sleeve, literally.
Raygo would never surrender, never stop. He was rich from the foolishness of others, as he would say, but he still wanted more.
It was never enough for Raygo, even when he found the girl of his dreams.
He met her at a show, she stood up to be cut in half, and Raygo was nearly cut in half himself by her beauty. Her red hair flowed in the breeze, and her dazzling green-yellow eyes left him shaking.
He took her to dinner and she never left his side.
She worked as his assistant for many tricks and would help him test new ones.
Raygo felt happy with her and didn't feel angry about his parents anymore when he was around her. He felt like he mattered. He felt so happy with her he proposed to her and swore to stop doing the awful things he did, tricking the people and all, and get a real job.
Finally the day came, the Church was full and the bride and groom to be took their places.
But as Raygo took a breath to say, "I do", he looked at the door, thought about what other riches would await out there. How many more tricks he could make.
And he ran. He ran from his fiancé, he ran from his happiness, he ran to his greed and riches. He ran as his fiancé screamed for him, but he didn't know the name, he was Raygo Bartles now, he was going to be rich.
And so he moved on. A year passed and he had gone to many other islands, tricking and stealing from many more people, until we find him here, in his ship. Sailing into a dark storm cloud, not knowing the great adventure and craziness that will await on the other side.
The cloud rumbles as he sails into it, a lightning bolt strikes the ship.
Raygo wrestles with the controls, but he can't bring it back, he has to land it before the engine fails.
The engine smokes and clunks, the ship sinks lower, another lighting bolt strikes the stern of the ship and sets the wood on fire.
Raygo curses Aneria and spins the wheel to the right, taking the ship out of the cloud. The cloud clears, and what comes into view will change Raygo's life forever. The Capital!
What is your character’s main goal? (Motivation): To become the richest man ever, to never stop getting richer, and to trick everyone he meets.
Strengths (Both physical and personality): very strong. Bit of a trickster, knows his way around a machine.
Weaknesses (Both physical and personality. Not knowing how to do something that is outside of your class is not a weakness. IE not knowing how to use bows and magic, if you are a swordsman.): One leg is shorter than the other, so when he walks he limps. Is very greedy and will do almost anything to get just one coin. Very stubborn and will try and try to trick a person out of their money, even if it may bring him harm.
Does your character have any connections to currently-existing characters or characters yet to be accepted? If so, which? (See “Character Linking Aid”. Please post a link to the topic.): If someone ever wants to play his angry ex-fiancé... Stir the pot... That would make some funny RP.
In-Character-Responses (ICRs. For each scenario, write at least a paragraph describing entirely in-character how your character would respond to the situation. Your ICRs will be used to see how well you can RP. Please post them as if in IC chat. An example can be found after this form.)
Walking down the streets of the Capital, you encounter a pair of heavily armed and armored men harassing a young girl.
Raygo freezes and stares at the two men.
"Hey you two, stop that!" He hollers to the men.
The men look up at him then return to the girl with a shrug.
"Alright then, won't listen to words."
Raygo rushes at the men and kicks the one on the left in the gut. The man stumbles back and swings at Raygo, hitting him in the temple.
Raygo falls down flat on his back.
“You’ll pay for that!” the man says, lifting his sword.
Raygo’s eyes widen and he kicks his foot out towards the man’s knee.
The force of the impact breaks the man’s kneecap and the man falls over, dropping his sword, screaming in pain and cussing at Raygo.
Raygo quickly grabs the dropped sword as the other man swings at him and blocks the blade.
Raygo lets out a chuckle as he jumps to his feet and swings the twirls the sword around with his fingers.
The man raises an eyebrow and swings his sword at Raygo’s chest.
Raygo leaps back away from the blow then brings the sword down on the mans arm.
The chain mail is sliced clean through, having been cheaply made, and the blade makes it’s way through most of the mans arm.
The man lets out a scream of anger and pain.
Using his good arm he lifts his companion to his feet and they hobble off down the road.
Raygo laughs and hands the sword to the young girl.
“Learn to use this. It’ll help if more people like them try to mess with you.”
Raygo winks at the girl and looks her up and down, seeing if he can get any money from her.
He decides not, shrugs, and walks away.
A man approaches you with promises of fortune abroad if you join the crew of his airships. How do you react, and why?
“I would love to, my friend. What fortune do you speak of? Is it buried treasure? A lost city?”
The man blinks and then shakes his head as if coming to a thought.
“Oh, oh, yes yes! Buried treasure, lost city. All of that! And more!”
Raygo frowns, “I see. Do you have a map of this lost city?”
The man mumbles something, reaches into his pocket and pulls out a piece of paper.
“ah, Yes! Here it is! See, right there!”
The man points to a poorly drawn island.
Raygo’s frown grows longer.
“Interesting. Is that a dragon there?”
Raygo points to a small black X shaped mark.
The man raises an eyebrow and turns the paper towards himself, examining it.
“Huh? That is… What? It… It’s a bird! I drew it myself, you fool! How can you not see that!”
The man grows red-faced.
Raygo laughs and shakes his head.
“You, my friend, need to take lessons on drawing.”
Raygo laughs louder and walks away.
You pass an old man lying on the side of the street, begging for food.
Raygo looks at the man and smiles.
He reaches into his pocket and pulls out some bread.
He hands the bread to the man and walks away.
The man looks after him and shouts in a gravely voice, “Thank you, kind sir!”
Raygo smiles and looks at a wanted sign, on a building, of himself.
The sign has a picture of him with a bald head and the name he used when he was a pirate.
Raygo’s smile turns to a smirk.
“I may be a crook, but I’m not heartless.”
In a tavern, a slightly inebriated fellow insults your mother.
Raygo grits his teeth.
"Yes she was, and so was my father.”
The man, possibly on the verge of alcohol poisoning, laughs.
“I knew I was right!”
Raygo frowns, downs his whiskey and walks out of the tavern.
The man turns to the bartender and makes a rude comment to the man.
The bartender growls.
Raygo hears a shout and a loud bang as the door opens behind him and the man he talked to is thrown out of the tavern.
Raygo chuckles.
“Poor drunken fool. You don’t know when to quit. Do you?”
The man groans and mumbles something about, “only voicing my opinion”
Raygo bends down and helps the man up, at the same time picking his pockets.
The man says something that sounds like “I thank you.” but could have also been “I’ll take two.”
Raygo decides it’s the second and chuckles.
“Nope, no more for you.”
You take a liking to a beautiful necklace a passing woman wears.
Raygo smiles at the necklace.
“Excuse me, miss.”
The woman looks at Raygo like he’s sour milk.
“Yes?” she says in a stuck up tone.
Raygo ignores the woman’s tone and un-approving look.
“I can’t help but to admire that beautiful necklace your wearing. Only one thing.”
“Yes?” the woman says in a weary tone.
Raygo frowns.
“It’s… just…crooked.”
He pulls his hands out of his pockets and reaches up to the woman’s necklace.
He adjusts it and brings his hands back down and into his pockets.
“There, better!”
The woman smiles.
“Thank you. I would feel so silly for wearing my necklace wrong in front of my friends.”
Raygo smiles and walks away.
Once he gets out of the woman’s sight he pulls his right hand out of his pocket and looks at the necklace in it.
Raygo grins, admiring his “switcheroo trick”; as he calls it; puts the necklace back in his pocket and carries on his way, whistling a familiar tune.
Do you have any questions about the server or our lore? Not sure. I might have some questions about the server. Haven’t been on since the update.
Other Notes: I asked Deadly to make my skin so when he finishes I will post this again with the skin. Just wanted you guys to know I’m still here and still want to be back in on the fun!

Biography (Minimum 400 words. Cannot include loved ones being killed, kidnapped, tortured, or the like, unless you can do it in a non-cliche manner.):
He grew up trained to work. He didn't mind it, he figured it was better that being trained to write biographies or other things like that. He just lived and had no notable things happen, he was actually bored. So he gathered his stuff and went on for better things. What those better things were, he didn't know. Honestly he just wanted to find more knowledge. He held a belief that if he found enough knowledge that he would be able to do something worthwhile in his life. Although this idea came with the realization of how unlikely it was he would find something interesting or worthwhile and with it a grim determination to make his life meaningful. So he travelled and did other things and realized that he really needed to start on his journey to make his life notable as anyone who tried to right his biography would probably start to get really bored and start recording things like when he ate or fell asleep in an effort to pad the biography up so it didn't look like a pamphlet. Unfortunately he didn't have any idea of where to start so he fell asleep at sunset after eating some bread. After more uneventful travelling he realized that he really felt sorry for anyone who had to write a biography on him especially if whoever asked them to make the biography gave them some weird limit like " must have four paragraphs" or "must have 400 words or more" although if that person was able to make his uneventful life seem that long he must be really good at padding.
What is your character’s main goal? (Motivation): The gathering of knowledge
Strengths (Both physical and personality): No notable strengths
Weaknesses (Both physical and personality. Not knowing how to do something that is outside of your class is not a weakness. IE not knowing how to use bows and magic, if you are a swordsman.): No notable weaknesses
Does your character have any connections to currently-existing characters or characters yet to be accepted? If so, which? (See “Character Linking Aid”. Please post a link to the topic.): No
In-Character-Responses (ICRs. For each scenario, write at least a paragraph describing entirely in-character how your character would respond to the situation.Your ICRs will be used to see how well you can RP. Please post them as if in IC chat. An example can be found after this form.)
Walking down the streets of the Capital, you encounter a pair of heavily armed and armoured men harassing a young girl.
I turn around and go another way as I shouldn't be so rude as to add "murder of someone trying to play hero" to their crimes of harassment.
A man approaches you with promises of fortune abroad if you join the crew of his airships. How do you react, and why?
I would go away as I don't need fortune.
You pass an old man lying on the side of the street, begging for food.
I would give him some bread
In a tavern, a slightly inebriated fellow insults your mother.
I would laugh and express my agreement.
You take a liking to a beautiful necklace a passing woman wears.
I would think about it and forget about it as im not a thief
Do you have any questions about the server or our lore?
Why Is there a 400 word rule on biographies? I cant write a biography but I can roleplay.

Question about Application (I'm in the middle of writing one)
1 - Would I be allowed to use a Japanese-based skin/name? I'm thinking of "Kamishirasawa Rinnosuke", but I might change either the family name (Kamishirasawa) or the given name (Rinnosuke) (probably not both).
2 - What happened to "Engineer"?
3 - Could you update the information on the front about classes if something happened to Engineer and the others? (I like redstone, and my current backstory involves my character's father making some sort of contraption...)

Stop right there! I don't want you to have to write your app for nothing! The Anerian Chronicles has come to a halt, and a new server is in the works. The staff have been working hard to come out with yet another quality roleplay server for all to enjoy, and it is expected to be release within a month. If you want to catch the latest news on the newest server, join our forums at aneria.enjin.com !
*EDIT* Well, after I posted my app I saw a post saying that this RP has ended. That's very disappointing, but I'll definitely look into the new RP you guys are making. ^.^
Really sorry about that, baltossa! We're really sorry you weren't able to join us on the epic ride that was The Anerian Chronicles. We hope to see you on the next server!
Hey there Zaros. The Anerian Chronicles has ended its journey, so we are no longer accepting applications at this time. HOWEVER, the Silver Gaming staff is working on a brand new server, with an all new map and lore! Keep up with the news at aneria.enjin.com !
Hey well is there any way that this can count for something on the new server? I was accepted on the Shrines of the Ancients server and I would guess that with Maybe one revision I would be accepted here. If they're finishing the app on the website could you pm me the link to it so that I could get my application in early!!! Looking forwards to be reconnected with the community again.

Sorry Zaros, the new server will have completely different lore and the questions will not be exactly the same, so you will have to have a fresh start. I hate to inform you, but we will not take into account an application from a different server whether it was accepted or not. The application will be up the same time the OP goes up on the Minecraft Forums, so check our site for the news of its release!

Screen capture of your skin:
Biography (Minimum 400 words. Cannot include loved ones being killed, kidnapped, tortured, or the like, unless you can do it in a non-cliche manner.):
Spyder was born on an obscure island. For 5 years, he and his parents lived on the island. However, monsters one day came and ravaged the island. Spyder's parents were forced to leave the island. Being picked up by a passing transport ship, they managed to escape certain death. However, pirates attacked the transport ship, and Spyder's dad ran off to join the pirates, leaving Spyder with his pregnant mother. They managed to get to the outskirts of the capital with little money. After Spyder turned 21 his mother let him go find his own path. Spyder and his younger sister were very close and it was hard for him to say goodbye. Spyder always wanted to learn how to fight so that one day he can fight the evils i the world so that he can relive his peaceful, isolated past.
What is your character’s main goal? (Motivation):
Spyder wants enough money and enough skills to maybe find an uninhabited island and to protect it from the supernatural evils. He also wants to have a family.
Strengths (Both physical and personality):
Spyder is very agile and has enough upper body strength to get himself over a wall. Spyder is very charming. He is mostly honest and very courageous.
Weaknesses (Both physical and personality. Not knowing how to do something that is outside of your class is not a weakness. IE not knowing how to use bows and magic, if you are a swordsman.):
Spyder isn't very strong in general. He is very self-conscious about the way he looks. Spyder is also very impulsive and stubborn.
Does your character have any connections to currently-existing characters or characters yet to be accepted? If so, which? (See “Character Linking Aid”. Please post a link to the topic.):
no
In-Character-Responses (ICRs. For each scenario, write at least a paragraph describing entirely in-character how your character would respond to the situation.Your ICRs will be used to see how well you can RP. Please post them as if in IC chat. An example can be found after this form.)
Walking down the streets of the Capital, you encounter a pair of heavily armed and armoured men harassing a young girl.
Spyder, who remembers how he was forced from his home by "bullies," (monsters) walks up to them and tells them to leave her alone. The guards laugh and beat Spyder up. Spyder didn't lose without a fight and the guards left with some black-eyes and some bloody noses. The girl offers to help Spyder with his injuries. As she tends to him, she says, "You didn't have to step in stranger." Spyder replies saying that how she was treated was unfair. She says with a smirk "They were harassing me because I stole one of their wallets." Spyder smiles. After he is tended to, the girl says, "I hope to see you again," as Spyder replies, "As do I." As the part ways, Spyder reaches into his pocket and realizes that half his money is gone. A man approaches you with promises of fortune abroad if you join the crew of his airships. How do you react, and why?
Spyder reacts with an excited tone. Spyder always wanted an excuse to go out and see the world. The fortune to him would mean nothing but an easier time finding an isolated home. He accepts just for the opportunity to finally be adventuring.
You pass an old man lying on the side of the street, begging for food.
Spyder stops and looks at the man for a sec. Just as he was going to leave, A young man comes up to the man and kicks him in the ribs yelling "hey old man, get up and be useless elsewhere. Spyder comes to the aid of the old man and pushes the young man away. The young man walks away with multiple swears leaving his mouth. Spyder gives money to the old man and leaves without a word.
In a tavern, a slightly inebriated fellow insults your mother.
Spyder asks the bartender for a bottle of ale. As the fellow keeps insulting his mother, he gets more and more angry. He eventually gets up, walks to the man, and smashes the bottle over his head. This leads to a bar fight which almost gets him kicked out, had not the armored guards came. But, Spyder still spent a night in jail because the guards who intervened were the same ones he ruffed them up while defending the young woman.
You take a liking to a beautiful necklace a passing woman wears.
Spyder wonders where she got it and asks where she got it. The Woman scoffs at him because She is an aristocrat. As she keeps making fun of his social status, the young woman he helped out earlier was walking by. Finally, the noble woman said it was custom made to her and only her, and that it was worth a small fortune. Spyder left pretty agitated but smiled realizing the the young woman e defended earlier is wearing the necklace. Spyder then invites her for a round at the tavern. She says, "Yes."

Character Information
Name: Raygo Bartles
Age: 31
Class: Laborer
Citizen of the Chancellery or a member of the Medori?: Citizen of the Chancellery (Cause I'm sick of trying to make a Medori.)
Physical description: 5' 8" 184 lbs. Muscular, medium light brown hair, blue eyes, light tan skin.
Screen capture of your skin: Coming soon. Hopefully.
Biography (Minimum 400 words. Cannot include loved ones being killed, kidnapped, tortured, or the like, unless you can do it in a non-cliché manner.):
A wanted poster with a picture of a round faced man with black hair, hangs on walls and trees of a distant island. Below the picture it reads: WANTED: Raygo Bartles, 5' 8" light brown hair, blue eyes, mismatched fancy clothes. Raygo Bartles, is not who he appears to be. He is a crook, a trickster, a prankster and an all around ass of a man. He is wanted for fraud, trickery, and theft.
Raygo Bartles, looks at the picture of himself and frowns.
"My ears aren't that big!" he proclaims, and pushes his "Cart of Wonders", which is painted on the side of a wooden cart overflowing with strange objects, onto a ship and sails away into the night sky, singing: "Oh, yo ho ho. Ho ho ho, I'll play a trick on ye. Watch the coin, watch the cups. It'll never be the one you pick. A gambling, betting, tricking life for me. I'll trick you all, take your money, and leave you as poor as I once was."
Raygo Bartles grew up on a small island, his parents had abandoned him when he was ten. He had few memories of them, but knew one thing: He hated them!
They left him to die, and he resented them for that. He resented everyone. No one cared about him, he had to steal food to stay alive, hide in old houses whose only residents were rats.
One night it was so cold he could have frozen to death, but thankfully he was able to use the rats as a blanket... whether they were dead or alive I do not know...
After a while people in the town got used to his tricks and how he was stealing food, so they boarded up holes in walls, and changed their locks. Raygo, now sixteen, went hungry for many days and finally accepted his death. He sat in an empty barrel in the hull of a ship and waited to die.
He was abruptly awoken from his near comatose state when the barrel fell off the ship at it's destination and broke into pieces, revealing the starving boy inside.
The men of the ship growled and snarled at the scared boy as he stumbled back over the broken barrel planks. He turned and ran...
straight into the captain.
The captain smiled wide at the boy, his teeth rotted and decayed.
"You would make a fine member of me crew... Strong arms, you can lift big loads can't ye'?" the captain said in a grating voice.
Raygo nodded slowly.
The captain laughed, than coughed.
"Welcome to the crew, mate. *cough*"
After many years of Raygo working for the pirates, learning tricks, ways to pick locks, and most everything else a pirate knows. Like drink rum. Raygo felt like he found his calling. Piracy!
Some nights the crew would land on a small island build a campfire, drink rum, and tell stories.
Whenever it was Raygo's turn he would lie to everyone about being raised by paladins who died valiantly protecting their Church, but he didn't believe in all that mess. After some time he became a great storyteller, well liar...
After five years working on the ship and helping maintain the ship, he had a knack for machinery, he became first mate and took over for the captain when he died of liver failure. Since the captain was the only fatherly figure Raygo had in his life he became a little distant from the crew. And it was because of this gap between the crew and their captain they were caught and thrown in jail.
For four nights they sat in that miserable cell, until a few crew members that had escaped capture rescued the rest of the crew and their captain, Raygo.
Raygo was very thankful and vowed not to let the old captains death, and his emotions on the matter, get in the way of his responsibility to his crew.
And so Raygo led the pirates for three more years till a great storm wrecked the ship and killed almost all the crew.
Raygo and three men were stranded on a deserted island for days. Slowly the three crew members starved to death, but Raygo who had learned to overcome hunger, fought two more days till he was rescued.
Now having grown a beard, no one recognized him as the pirate captain. Raygo was slightly upset no one recognized him, the great work he had done.
Raygo took on a job at a local craftsman shop and learned many more things about building. He soon became an expert at his craft and was very famous on the island, but he needed more. It wasn't enough, he was greedy, he needed more!
Having learned some basic machinery Raygo set off as a street performer, pretending to be a sort of mage. He could build small, simple machines that could make unbelievable things appear to be happening. He could make a ball levitate, cut a woman in half, make whole wallets of coins disappear and reappear. He would also play games, like the cups and ball game. He would swindle lots of people out of their money with that one!
Occasionally the people of a town would get angry or find out what he was doing and try to arrest him, but he usually escaped capture or escaped the cell. He had many tricks up his sleeve, literally.
Raygo would never surrender, never stop. He was rich from the foolishness of others, as he would say, but he still wanted more.
It was never enough for Raygo, even when he found the girl of his dreams.
He met her at a show, she stood up to be cut in half, and Raygo was nearly cut in half himself by her beauty. Her red hair flowed in the breeze, and her dazzling green-yellow eyes left him shaking.
He took her to dinner and she never left his side.
She worked as his assistant for many tricks and would help him test new ones.
Raygo felt happy with her and didn't feel angry about his parents anymore when he was around her. He felt like he mattered. He felt so happy with her he proposed to her and swore to stop doing the awful things he did, tricking the people and all, and get a real job.
Finally the day came, the Church was full and the bride and groom to be took their places.
But as Raygo took a breath to say, "I do", he looked at the door, thought about what other riches would await out there. How many more tricks he could make.
And he ran. He ran from his fiancé, he ran from his happiness, he ran to his greed and riches. He ran as his fiancé screamed for him, but he didn't know the name, he was Raygo Bartles now, he was going to be rich.
And so he moved on. A year passed and he had gone to many other islands, tricking and stealing from many more people, until we find him here, in his ship. Sailing into a dark storm cloud, not knowing the great adventure and craziness that will await on the other side.
The cloud rumbles as he sails into it, a lightning bolt strikes the ship.
Raygo wrestles with the controls, but he can't bring it back, he has to land it before the engine fails.
The engine smokes and clunks, the ship sinks lower, another lighting bolt strikes the stern of the ship and sets the wood on fire.
Raygo curses Aneria and spins the wheel to the right, taking the ship out of the cloud. The cloud clears, and what comes into view will change Raygo's life forever. The Capital!
What is your character’s main goal? (Motivation): To become the richest man ever, to never stop getting richer, and to trick everyone he meets.
Strengths (Both physical and personality): very strong. Bit of a trickster, knows his way around a machine.
Weaknesses (Both physical and personality. Not knowing how to do something that is outside of your class is not a weakness. IE not knowing how to use bows and magic, if you are a swordsman.): One leg is shorter than the other, so when he walks he limps. Is very greedy and will do almost anything to get just one coin. Very stubborn and will try and try to trick a person out of their money, even if it may bring him harm.
Does your character have any connections to currently-existing characters or characters yet to be accepted? If so, which? (See “Character Linking Aid”. Please post a link to the topic.): If someone ever wants to play his angry ex-fiancé... Stir the pot... That would make some funny RP.
In-Character-Responses (ICRs. For each scenario, write at least a paragraph describing entirely in-character how your character would respond to the situation. Your ICRs will be used to see how well you can RP. Please post them as if in IC chat. An example can be found after this form.)
Walking down the streets of the Capital, you encounter a pair of heavily armed and armored men harassing a young girl.
Raygo freezes and stares at the two men.
"Hey you two, stop that!" He hollers to the men.
The men look up at him then return to the girl with a shrug.
"Alright then, won't listen to words."
Raygo rushes at the men and kicks the one on the left in the gut. The man stumbles back and swings at Raygo, hitting him in the temple.
Raygo falls down flat on his back.
“You’ll pay for that!” the man says, lifting his sword.
Raygo’s eyes widen and he kicks his foot out towards the man’s knee.
The force of the impact breaks the man’s kneecap and the man falls over, dropping his sword, screaming in pain and cussing at Raygo.
Raygo quickly grabs the dropped sword as the other man swings at him and blocks the blade.
Raygo lets out a chuckle as he jumps to his feet and swings the twirls the sword around with his fingers.
The man raises an eyebrow and swings his sword at Raygo’s chest.
Raygo leaps back away from the blow then brings the sword down on the mans arm.
The chain mail is sliced clean through, having been cheaply made, and the blade makes it’s way through most of the mans arm.
The man lets out a scream of anger and pain.
Using his good arm he lifts his companion to his feet and they hobble off down the road.
Raygo laughs and hands the sword to the young girl.
“Learn to use this. It’ll help if more people like them try to mess with you.”
Raygo winks at the girl and looks her up and down, seeing if he can get any money from her.
He decides not, shrugs, and walks away.
A man approaches you with promises of fortune abroad if you join the crew of his airships. How do you react, and why?
“I would love to, my friend. What fortune do you speak of? Is it buried treasure? A lost city?”
The man blinks and then shakes his head as if coming to a thought.
“Oh, oh, yes yes! Buried treasure, lost city. All of that! And more!”
Raygo frowns, “I see. Do you have a map of this lost city?”
The man mumbles something, reaches into his pocket and pulls out a piece of paper.
“ah, Yes! Here it is! See, right there!”
The man points to a poorly drawn island.
Raygo’s frown grows longer.
“Interesting. Is that a dragon there?”
Raygo points to a small black X shaped mark.
The man raises an eyebrow and turns the paper towards himself, examining it.
“Huh? That is… What? It… It’s a bird! I drew it myself, you fool! How can you not see that!”
The man grows red-faced.
Raygo laughs and shakes his head.
“You, my friend, need to take lessons on drawing.”
Raygo laughs louder and walks away.
You pass an old man lying on the side of the street, begging for food.
Raygo looks at the man and smiles.
He reaches into his pocket and pulls out some bread.
He hands the bread to the man and walks away.
The man looks after him and shouts in a gravely voice, “Thank you, kind sir!”
Raygo smiles and looks at a wanted sign, on a building, of himself.
The sign has a picture of him with a bald head and the name he used when he was a pirate.
Raygo’s smile turns to a smirk.
“I may be a crook, but I’m not heartless.”
In a tavern, a slightly inebriated fellow insults your mother.
Raygo grits his teeth.
"Yes she was, and so was my father.”
The man, possibly on the verge of alcohol poisoning, laughs.
“I knew I was right!”
Raygo frowns, downs his whiskey and walks out of the tavern.
The man turns to the bartender and makes a rude comment to the man.
The bartender growls.
Raygo hears a shout and a loud bang as the door opens behind him and the man he talked to is thrown out of the tavern.
Raygo chuckles.
“Poor drunken fool. You don’t know when to quit. Do you?”
The man groans and mumbles something about, “only voicing my opinion”
Raygo bends down and helps the man up, at the same time picking his pockets.
The man says something that sounds like “I thank you.” but could have also been “I’ll take two.”
Raygo decides it’s the second and chuckles.
“Nope, no more for you.”
You take a liking to a beautiful necklace a passing woman wears.
Raygo smiles at the necklace.
“Excuse me, miss.”
The woman looks at Raygo like he’s sour milk.
“Yes?” she says in a stuck up tone.
Raygo ignores the woman’s tone and un-approving look.
“I can’t help but to admire that beautiful necklace your wearing. Only one thing.”
“Yes?” the woman says in a weary tone.
Raygo frowns.
“It’s… just…crooked.”
He pulls his hands out of his pockets and reaches up to the woman’s necklace.
He adjusts it and brings his hands back down and into his pockets.
“There, better!”
The woman smiles.
“Thank you. I would feel so silly for wearing my necklace wrong in front of my friends.”
Raygo smiles and walks away.
Once he gets out of the woman’s sight he pulls his right hand out of his pocket and looks at the necklace in it.
Raygo grins, admiring his “switcheroo trick”; as he calls it; puts the necklace back in his pocket and carries on his way, whistling a familiar tune.
Do you have any questions about the server or our lore? Not sure. I might have some questions about the server. Haven’t been on since the update.
Other Notes: I asked Deadly to make my skin so when he finishes I will post this again with the skin. Just wanted you guys to know I’m still here and still want to be back in on the fun!

Biography (Minimum 400 words. Cannot include loved ones being killed, kidnapped, tortured, or the like, unless you can do it in a non-cliche manner.):
He grew up trained to work. He didn't mind it, he figured it was better that being trained to write biographies or other things like that. He just lived and had no notable things happen, he was actually bored. So he gathered his stuff and went on for better things. What those better things were, he didn't know. Honestly he just wanted to find more knowledge. He held a belief that if he found enough knowledge that he would be able to do something worthwhile in his life. Although this idea came with the realization of how unlikely it was he would find something interesting or worthwhile and with it a grim determination to make his life meaningful. So he travelled and did other things and realized that he really needed to start on his journey to make his life notable as anyone who tried to right his biography would probably start to get really bored and start recording things like when he ate or fell asleep in an effort to pad the biography up so it didn't look like a pamphlet. Unfortunately he didn't have any idea of where to start so he fell asleep at sunset after eating some bread. After more uneventful travelling he realized that he really felt sorry for anyone who had to write a biography on him especially if whoever asked them to make the biography gave them some weird limit like " must have four paragraphs" or "must have 400 words or more" although if that person was able to make his uneventful life seem that long he must be really good at padding.
What is your character’s main goal? (Motivation): The gathering of knowledge
Strengths (Both physical and personality): No notable strengths
Weaknesses (Both physical and personality. Not knowing how to do something that is outside of your class is not a weakness. IE not knowing how to use bows and magic, if you are a swordsman.): No notable weaknesses
Does your character have any connections to currently-existing characters or characters yet to be accepted? If so, which? (See “Character Linking Aid”. Please post a link to the topic.): No
In-Character-Responses (ICRs. For each scenario, write at least a paragraph describing entirely in-character how your character would respond to the situation.Your ICRs will be used to see how well you can RP. Please post them as if in IC chat. An example can be found after this form.)
Walking down the streets of the Capital, you encounter a pair of heavily armed and armoured men harassing a young girl.
I turn around and go another way as I shouldn't be so rude as to add "murder of someone trying to play hero" to their crimes of harassment.
A man approaches you with promises of fortune abroad if you join the crew of his airships. How do you react, and why?
I would go away as I don't need fortune.
You pass an old man lying on the side of the street, begging for food.
I would give him some bread
In a tavern, a slightly inebriated fellow insults your mother.
I would laugh and express my agreement.
You take a liking to a beautiful necklace a passing woman wears.
I would think about it and forget about it as im not a thief
Do you have any questions about the server or our lore?
Why Is there a 400 word rule on biographies? I cant write a biography but I can roleplay.
Other notes: I don't know if I had 400 words.
1 - Would I be allowed to use a Japanese-based skin/name? I'm thinking of "Kamishirasawa Rinnosuke", but I might change either the family name (Kamishirasawa) or the given name (Rinnosuke) (probably not both).
2 - What happened to "Engineer"?
3 - Could you update the information on the front about classes if something happened to Engineer and the others? (I like redstone, and my current backstory involves my character's father making some sort of contraption...)
Stop right there! I don't want you to have to write your app for nothing! The Anerian Chronicles has come to a halt, and a new server is in the works. The staff have been working hard to come out with yet another quality roleplay server for all to enjoy, and it is expected to be release within a month. If you want to catch the latest news on the newest server, join our forums at aneria.enjin.com !
Really sorry about that, baltossa! We're really sorry you weren't able to join us on the epic ride that was The Anerian Chronicles. We hope to see you on the next server!
Hey well is there any way that this can count for something on the new server? I was accepted on the Shrines of the Ancients server and I would guess that with Maybe one revision I would be accepted here. If they're finishing the app on the website could you pm me the link to it so that I could get my application in early!!! Looking forwards to be reconnected with the community again.
Sorry Zaros, the new server will have completely different lore and the questions will not be exactly the same, so you will have to have a fresh start. I hate to inform you, but we will not take into account an application from a different server whether it was accepted or not. The application will be up the same time the OP goes up on the Minecraft Forums, so check our site for the news of its release!
We, the Silver Gaming Staff, invite you all to attend the new Silver Gaming School of Role-Play, or SGSRP for short! It is a course of four classes in which you, as a student, will be taught and will take hands-on experience with the art of Role-Play. The school is run by trusted Silver Gaming Staff members and expert Role-Players.
It is recommended that all future applicants take a First Year Course although it is optional. Your involvement in SGSRP will not effect your application process in any way, for either good or ill. It is simply there if you wish to have a good time and learn some lessons you might not have otherwise known as well as getting to know the Silver Gaming Staff on a much more personal level.
If you are differed three times when applying for any Silver Gaming Server you can attend one First Year at SGSRP and the decision will be given to the Staff Whitelisters whether or not you would be allowed to reapply.
For more Information or if you are looking to apply leave a message on this forum.
Thank you and we hope to see more applications soon!
~Kindest Regards,
The Silver Gaming Staff

Screen capture of your skin:
Biography (Minimum 400 words. Cannot include loved ones being killed, kidnapped, tortured, or the like, unless you can do it in a non-cliche manner.):
Spyder was born on an obscure island. For 5 years, he and his parents lived on the island. However, monsters one day came and ravaged the island. Spyder's parents were forced to leave the island. Being picked up by a passing transport ship, they managed to escape certain death. However, pirates attacked the transport ship, and Spyder's dad ran off to join the pirates, leaving Spyder with his pregnant mother. They managed to get to the outskirts of the capital with little money. After Spyder turned 21 his mother let him go find his own path. Spyder and his younger sister were very close and it was hard for him to say goodbye. Spyder always wanted to learn how to fight so that one day he can fight the evils i the world so that he can relive his peaceful, isolated past.

Spyder is very agile and has enough upper body strength to get himself over a wall. Spyder is very charming. He is mostly honest and very courageous.

Does your character have any connections to currently-existing characters or characters yet to be accepted? If so, which? (See “Character Linking Aid”. Please post a link to the topic.):

In-Character-Responses (ICRs. For each scenario, write at least a paragraph describing entirely in-character how your character would respond to the situation.Your ICRs will be used to see how well you can RP. Please post them as if in IC chat. An example can be found after this form.)
Walking down the streets of the Capital, you encounter a pair of heavily armed and armoured men harassing a young girl.
Spyder, who remembers how he was forced from his home by "bullies," (monsters) walks up to them and tells them to leave her alone. The guards laugh and beat Spyder up. Spyder didn't lose without a fight and the guards left with some black-eyes and some bloody noses. The girl offers to help Spyder with his injuries. As she tends to him, she says, "You didn't have to step in stranger." Spyder replies saying that how she was treated was unfair. She says with a smirk "They were harassing me because I stole one of their wallets." Spyder smiles. After he is tended to, the girl says, "I hope to see you again," as Spyder replies, "As do I." As the part ways, Spyder reaches into his pocket and realizes that half his money is gone.
A man approaches you with promises of fortune abroad if you join the crew of his airships. How do you react, and why?
Spyder reacts with an excited tone. Spyder always wanted an excuse to go out and see the world. The fortune to him would mean nothing but an easier time finding an isolated home. He accepts just for the opportunity to finally be adventuring.
You pass an old man lying on the side of the street, begging for food.
Spyder stops and looks at the man for a sec. Just as he was going to leave, A young man comes up to the man and kicks him in the ribs yelling "hey old man, get up and be useless elsewhere. Spyder comes to the aid of the old man and pushes the young man away. The young man walks away with multiple swears leaving his mouth. Spyder gives money to the old man and leaves without a word.
In a tavern, a slightly inebriated fellow insults your mother.
Spyder asks the bartender for a bottle of ale. As the fellow keeps insulting his mother, he gets more and more angry. He eventually gets up, walks to the man, and smashes the bottle over his head. This leads to a bar fight which almost gets him kicked out, had not the armored guards came. But, Spyder still spent a night in jail because the guards who intervened were the same ones he ruffed them up while defending the young woman.
You take a liking to a beautiful necklace a passing woman wears.
Spyder wonders where she got it and asks where she got it. The Woman scoffs at him because She is an aristocrat. As she keeps making fun of his social status, the young woman he helped out earlier was walking by. Finally, the noble woman said it was custom made to her and only her, and that it was worth a small fortune. Spyder left pretty agitated but smiled realizing the the young woman e defended earlier is wearing the necklace. Spyder then invites her for a round at the tavern. She says, "Yes."
Do you have any questions about the server or our lore?
not really
Other notes: none
Good luck!
