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.

Written Test!
Evelyn Woods comes from a fairly big town in a wooded area, hence her last name. She was the daughter of the mayor himself, her mother was told she could not bear any children so Evelyn was know throughout the town as the miracle baby. As she got older, Evelyn became used to the attention from the townspeople and developed a form of narcissism. One day this new characteristic got the best of Evelyn, as she was walking through the town she saw a pair of slippers that caught her eye. Without hesitation, Evelyn grabbed the slippers and slipped them into her satchel and proceeded on home. However, later in the evening back at her family's home, a stern knock presented itself on the grand front door. Her father, Mayor Woods opened it with only to be shocked and see his own town guards at the door. The guards explained to him how his very own daughter stole a pair of slippers and how she didn't even hesitate. After the guards left, Evelyn's father pounded on her door and yelled at her with a stern voice to open the door. Evelyn was quite confused how her father was reacting to her stealing those slippers. When he demanded for an explanation Evelyn simply told him how she thought she didn't have to pay for anything since the Woods family was high in rank in their town. Her father was so disappointed in his daughter he stripped her room of expensive items to the common townspeople and gave her only common items to wear. Evelyn was heart broken, but luckily her father didn't know about the loose floor board under her bed that stashed some valuables, such as, her little dagger her mother gave her, her favorite blue flower crown, and her satchel. Still in shock, Evelyn made a huge decision to run away and find somewhere to live that didn't know about her nor her family. After climbing down the thorny vines from her window and sneaking past the town guards, she made it out of town and to the willow tree that sat upon a hill that looked over the whole town. Her mother would always take her there to show her the beauties of their town, but now all Evelyn could see was lies. She quickly wrapped her bloody hands and continued on her journey for a new start. One day hoping to write her family the truth.

Current Setting of the Server
As the last galleys pull into port from the Northern Kingdoms, so too do they mark the end of the Exodus. A dark and desperate chapter in Altera's history.

The undead swarms had battered us, and the Sea of Storms had bruised us, yet here we were, alive. Alive in a brave new frontier to the east, and the flickering embers of our dying lands were now kindling the fires of new civilization, in a land of opportunity, vast and boundless.

Now, for the first time in a long time, there is hope. Hope of a new chapter, a new beginning and a clean slate. Yet there is also fear. Fear of the land unknown, and the danger untold. There is fear that, in spreading the light, we draw the ire of what lies in the shadows. In this new land, it even seems as if demons and the explainable come out to play.

But no matter the opinions on the subject, there is one thing that may be said for certain.

Life on Altera was about to change

Congratulations!
I'm pleased to announce your application has been approved. I hope you enjoy your stay in Altera. Before logging on make sure you read the Survival Guide. It will help you on your way to get established in our World. 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 before asking a question ingame.

For easy reading- Here's our Starter Guide once you login!

If you're stuck unable to interact with anything or chat, try using /warp whitelist, 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.(very useful, by the way.)
Survival Guide
Tome of Citizenship
Commands Guide
How to create your character profile
Town Census
Server Rules
Using Titles ingame
Rules for Roleplay
The Players' Handbook

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 it.

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.
