About Your Character!
This section is about the character you intend to use once you join the server.We ask that new players follow these guidelines during this portion of the application:

• Characters begin with basic skills and gear. No advanced armor or weaponry. Skills and abilities are appropriate to a novice level. Skills should be learned through roleplay, not through backstory.
• Characters fit the lore. If you choose to play as a Moor Elf, for example, we expect appearance and details to be fitting with base lore.
• Characters cannot use magic in any way. The test itself should not mention magic either. HollowWorld uses a restricted magic system and it is only accessible to those who find and learn from a teacher in-game.
• Tests should not be violent. No murder, killing, death, torture. In the past, 8 out of 10 applications featured characters fighting off bandits or slaying passersby. We don't want to see how well you can script a fight scene. We want to see how well you can tell a story, how well you can roleplay.
• Be creative and be original. Do not use tests/characters whose home villages were burned, parents murdered, and then set off to be an orphan assassin. It has been done before. Please don't do it again.
• Written portion of the test is required to be a 400 word minimum. If the test doesn't meet the minimum, Staff may ask you to extend the test before the application is considered.

You can remove the guidelines above when you're copy and pasting the application. The instructions above are for you to read and can be removed when applying.

(Optional) Picture of the Skin:


Written Test!
"Gistrod Ironblood" his name is, Once a proud dwarf of his way of life. Gistrod does not speak Horghaan because his father and mother never got to teach it to him though he tends to have a Scottish accent. The Ironbloods once a proud clan of the dwarfs that focused on forging and battle. The beginning of the Ironbloods was created by Aldrou Ironblood and Mihira Ironblood, Gistrods mother and father. Though the Ironbloods where not written into the history books, Gistrod's goal is to change that and rebuild the once mighty Ironblood clan. When the Ironbloods where in there golden days many dwarfern forgers and warriors join this clan, The Ironbloods pride was there work in forging might weapons, Tools and Dwarf-ish armors. Though don't get me wrong the Ironbloods enjoyed they forging but craven battle above all so they better the fighter you where in the clan the more likely you would be more accepted by other Ironblood members. To get into the Ironblood clan one must go through a multiple of tests and tasks like the Test of Skill or the Test of Blood, For the Test of skill the dwarf must create a certain tool to the best of his ability and the member that is overseeing the task will judge him on his skills. Test of blood is where the dwarf must fight a member of the clan in a duel, The dwarf must not kill this member but knock him out or until he yields. The name of the clan has a meaning, Iron stands for the forging skills within the clan and the knowledge of metals and gems one self must need to know. Blood stands for the battle spirit in the clan, The loyalty of oneself. Though once the Ironbloods where a very rich clan all greatness will come to a end somehow, The Ironbloods had one weakness that most dwarfs have... The Sickness of greed, The Ironbloods ripped each other apart from the inside.., Once almost all members of the clan help a good amount of wealth they started to get paranoid of other Ironblood members stealing from them, Soon dwarfs left the clan, Killed each other over paranoia or just the desire of more riches, Though years the clan ripped each other apart. Gistrod one of the last remaining Ironbloods wishes to rebuild is once mighty clan and return it to its once mighty state of life, Though we would need some help from loyal dwarfs willing to join the Ironblood name... (The symbol of this dwarfern clan lies below)

Before I accept this application I need to let you know that, while suitable for the written test, major alterations to Alteran history such as an economically thriving dwarven empire outside of the reaches of our lore are not acceptable in roleplay. If you must keep this as your character's origin story, please keep the expanse of the story within the boundaries of our history and lore.

Congratulations, Nero_Roman!

I'm pleased to announce your application has been approved. I hope you enjoy your stay on Hollowworld. Before logging on, make sure you read the Survival Guide. It will help you on your way to get established in our world, Altera. If you need to know any additional information, everything can be found in our Tome of Citizenship. Make sure you consult either of these two or ask one of our Mentors for help if you have any questions about how things work.

If you're stuck unable to interact with anything or chat, try using /warp whitelist, and if this doesn't work then please message a staff member with the problem.

You are probably eager to jump into the game, so there is no need to read all the links. Just use these as a reference for later. (These are very useful, by the way.)

Lastly, please make sure you understand the following points. It's very important. As a new player, once you play you may be tempted to "test" out an x-ray mod... don't do it! We have a zero tolerance policy for them.

1) We have active members of staff monitoring players suspected of using X-RAY. We have extensive logging capabilities which also highlight to us when X-RAY is suspected. Anyone caught using X-RAY mods or Transparent Texture Packs will be permanently banned without appeal.
2) Anyone found to be griefing our server and subsequently blaming their sibling, friend, dog or any other person other than themselves will be banned irrespective of their innocence.
