warlord2468

Loyal Servant of Altera
1. What is your Minecraft username?
Gen_Warlord

2. How old are you?
20

3. What country are you from?
America

4. Have you read the King's Law, Code of Conducts, Official Lore, and the Player Guides yet?
Yes I have read the basic lore behind the world and some of the arcane since I wish to invest all of my time on the server getting into it and hopefully becoming a magic user on the server.

5. In your own words, how would you define metagaming and powergaming?
Metagaming is using something outside of the RP to effect the RP in your own favor. Powergaming is using powers that are too over powered for the other RP players and will eventually result in you winning the RP.

6. Do we allow X-Raying mods or X-Ray texture packs on the server?
No that will result in Cheating and a bannable offense.

7. Name one of our current Mentors.
Solus

8. Tell us about yourself!
I am

9. Do you have any examples of your work?


10. Did anyone refer you? If not, how did you find our server?
through goggle

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:
John "Phantom" Deliex

Character Age:
127 years old

Character Race:
Silver Elf of Arget

Appearance:
Brown hair long and tied up with some hanging out, a pair of leather goggles strapped on his forehead, A black trench coat, black dress pants, He also wears a silver necklace with a dragon wrapped around a golden sword given to him by his mother and a iron ring with a dragon claw clutching onto a pearl skull, he wears under his trench coat a white collared shirt with a red silky ribbon.

Written Test!
Phantom's mother and father meet in Queensport, His mother was there to retrieve some cloths and firewood for the long winter and his father was there on business. when they meet they talked at first, then started to hang around each other more often up til His father asked her if she will be his date. for the next 2 years they lived together and went on dates, that was until he proposed to her next to a silver icy pond with snow softly falling down. At first she was surprised but said yes and a week later they got married under a oak tree during winter.
five years later she became pregnant with Phantom. both the mother and the father was excited to finally receive a child of their own but they decided to teach him how to survive in the wild and the education his parents want to pass down to him so they moved into a cabin up north. 8 months later he was born and doted upon, "this will be a beginning of a new start." His father stated as he held his son in his arms. when he was a child he would often cause mischief and climb everything he can reach, soon after he started learning about reading and writing from his mother, crafting and survival from his father.
When Phantom turned 20 he started gong out into the world to explore new places with his father on errands. sometimes Phantom had to help his father in combat and business. couple of years later he started learning how to use a bow and arrows from both his mother and father. At first he never really got the hang of it but he did eventually start using it to hunt and defend himself on travels. When he showed his father that he was better at archery than his father was, his father smiled and congratulated him on surpassing him.
Everything was peaceful and calm as Phantom set out to deliver a message to one of his father's business partners. After a year of traveling he arrived at Bol'tn'thar as he walked through town he stopped to give the man the letter and state that it was from his father, the man then looked up at him and stated, "Son you best be heading back, some of the folk around here has been talking about a attack in the north where you and your parents is." with that said to him he rushed home only to find it in ruins and his parents hanging on nails on the trees. there were signs of orcs around but when he got inside he found that they wrote him a letter telling him goodbye as if they knew they would die. for a couple of hours he sat there thinking about what he has to do now. Now he roams the world seeking more knowledge and guidance on his path....

Hello, your application has unfortunately been declined for the following reasons:
  • Mentor List: Please have another look at our current list of mentors found in our application guidelines, as we do not have Solus listed as a mentor.
  • Powergaming Definition: Please expand upon your definition, and have another look at our {King's Law} if need be.
  • Character Appearance & Name: We ask that goggles are acquired through in-character means on the server as it is a difficult item to find. Trenchcoats are unfortunately outside of our time-range for our setting, as they are a 19th century fashion while we gear towards a more medieval setting. Additionally, I would strongly recommend you take another look at our lore for {Silver Elves} and try to think of a more lore-compliant name for your character.
  • Written Test:
    • We ask that skills such as combat and survival are acquired in-character for fairness' sake, and not innately known through written backstory. We would like most things to be gained over time on our server and through roleplay with other characters.
    • We do not have orcs on our server. While there is a similar race, they are very, very rare. Please take more time to read our lore.
    • Generally, we ask to avoid cliches in your character's backstory such as family members being brutally murdered, as it is a very, very commonly seen plot device. We want to see how you can creatively write a character for roleplay.
    • Finally, we explicitly ask in the application guidelines to avoid violence in your written test, as we are looking for your ability to write dialogue and character development, not combat. This includes dead people hanging on nails tacked to trees.
It does not appear you read our lore very closely besides certain pieces, and could use a closer look at our application rules and guidelines.

You are free to resubmit your application when you feel you have a better grasp on our required reading for applying to join our server. If you have any questions or concerns about your denial, please contact a staff member. Thanks.
