The Whitelist Application Form:

About You!

1. What is your Minecraft username?
(New players can only use one account to begin with, so please don't list any alt accounts. You can apply for an alt account after being here for one month.)


balatr0

2. How old are you?
(Please note that the minimum age to take part on the server is 14. Due to the era of the role play there are some more mature themes which may not be suitable for anyone younger. We can't be held responsible should you choose to lie about your age.)

27

3. What country are you from?
(HollowWorld is an English speaking server. People from around the world are more than welcome to join us and take part provided that they do their best to use a good standard of written English both in game and on the forums.)

USA

4. Have you read the King's Law, Code of Conducts, Official Lore, and the Player Guides yet?
(There, you can find information about how our server is run, as well as the playable races.)

More than once over the last decade

5. In your own words, how would you define metagaming and powergaming?
(It is important to understand what these terms are and why they are bannable offenses in any roleplaying community.)

Meta gaming - Using knowledge implicitly gained from OOC means to inform RP
Power Gaming - Imposing actions upon RP partners, IE: I dodge your attack and slice your neck open, or "You cant escape my grasp no matter how strong you are"

6. Do we allow X-Raying mods or X-Ray texture packs on the server?
(This question goes for any method that can be used to unfairly find and mine ores.)

Sure dont

7. Name one of our current Mentors.
(Mentors are designed to help you get used to the server; you can see a list of our current Mentors and what they can do for you under 'Code of Conduct!' [x].)

Cymic

8. Tell us about yourself!
(Introduce yourself! Tell us some of your hobbies, what kind of music you like, other games you play, maybe any pets you have. We're not asking for anything too personal, but we would like to get to know you a bit better to help the application and transition. This question needs to be a minimum of five sentences and not focused on Minecraft.)

Im a Professional comidan in LA who works for the Mouse in disneyland.

9. Do you have any examples of your work?
(This question is optional! Are you an artist? A builder? A writer? If you want to show off some of your work, we'd love to see it! You can upload a file at the bottom of the page to attach some pictures if you like! If you don't have anything you want to show, that is perfectly fine. Don't worry.)

The Thieve's Guild would be my best known project Minecraft wise. It lasted for a few years and created some of the most memorable RP i've ever done.

10. Did anyone refer you? If not, how did you find our server?
(This question is also optional. If you were referred by someone, that person has a chance to get a referral reward.)

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.

Character Name:
(Be mindful of the Medieval Fantasy theme when choosing your name.)

Inspector Barlin Maycroft Montebello

Character Age:
(Simple enough!)

53

Character Race:
(Have a look through our Playable Races! Here's a helpful Guide!)

Human

Appearance:
(We just want to make sure things like hair color, eye color, skin color, and clothing is all fitting for the setting/lore we have.)

Slender, tall build with sharp features and a pointed hawklike nose. Cold eyes that often wear a glassy far away expression.

(Optional) Picture of the Skin:
(Attach a picture here if you have one. If you don't have an image, that's fine. Just make sure you describe it well in the appearance section.)

Written Test!
(This is where you tell us a story of your choosing! Be creative. It should be 400 words minimum and use the character you've created above. This is what we use to judge your ability as a roleplayer. Show us how much you've learned by reading our guides and lore. Include anything you think will impress us!)

Barlin smelled his fingers. The morning dew had done more to obliterate the scene than even the fire set to cover the traces. He kneled before the upturned caravan wagon with a intrest bordering on admiration for whoever committed this attack. no weapon marks, no arrows, not even the cargo had been rifled through yet here lay two corpses briefed of there mortal selves. It was a man and woman no older than there late 20s on the road from Sylennen to kracken bay. This pass was by no means safe, years of unrest saw to that, but nothing about had the hall marks of an ambush. The two of them were dressed well enough. All signed pointed him to believe that the two drank the vials of poison he found clutched in there hands, further corroborated by the Suicidal love pact that appeared to be written by the two "Lovers"
Surely this murderer had impressed him, with their singular Imagination alone, and yet he failed to be through enough to avoid ALL suspicion.

The char marks on the caravan indicate it could only have been burning for a few hours. But his poor "Lovers" have been cold for far longer. perhasp twice as long.
Barlin smelled his fingers... Snake Venom... He rubbed his fingers together... If his studies were correct, a russele's viper. Venom this potent would kill the drinker instantly. they'd never have enough time to set there wagon to the torch before it's effects took hold. There could only be one possibility. A third actor. and for some not immediately apparent reason after there heinous act they waited two hours before destroying the evidence. Staging this scene perhaps? Or searching the Coach for something, It was unclear, but not much time had passed since sunrise illuminated this place, he may very well have a chance to clear that matter up with the suspect themselves, they couldnt be far off.

Barlin stood and gazed around. "Search the road both ways for any travelers or signs of passing" He said to the guard captain "There is a horse from the wagon missing our man will have taken it and flown"but barlin was beginning to learn about his quarry already, he walked to the side to the path noticing the boot prints barely still visible in the mud. "I'll head up the cliff side." He drew his scarf around his face and made his way after his 3rd actor... The rush growing in him again, something interesting... at last!

Current Setting of the Server:

The lands of Altera have long been laced with upheaval, supernatural turmoil that would threaten to shatter the realm or tear it asunder. Long, have the peoples of Altera withstood these tribulations, overcoming and persevering through the generations. Only too recently, the realm tangled with the Behemoth Qlippoth, awakened by monsoon rains and with which came the Ashen Blight plague and eldritch abominations. Though the days were dark and long, the realm did survive, through its tenacity and reverence. The memories of the trials behind them still fresh, the realm sits in a state of unease and angst . . . with eyes on the horizon.

In the skies above, the heavens fall and burn across the auburn colors of the setting sun, streaks of color in the gathering dark. The Realm of Altera awaits . .
