Metagaming is when you use knowledge you didn't gain from roleplaying and use it to your advantage during roleplay.

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:
Conan Rudhale the II
Character Age:
23
Character Race:
Human
Appearance:
Brown hair, light skin, and blue eyes.
Written Test!
Conan Rudhale the II's young life is very mundane and boring. As a child he lived with his two parents, his father a fisherman, and his mother a baker. Growing up he wasn't wealthy, but every night he had food in front of him along with a roof over his head. He would spend lots of time helping his mother with the baking, and sometimes he would go onto his fathers boat to assist him with fishing. He enjoyed helping his father on his boat, but he was never very satisfied with this life, as the village boys would tell him tall tales and stories of great kings who lived lavish lives, and have stacks and stacks of wealth. He yearned for a life like that, and would do whatever it took to be able to live like that.
So, when he was 18 he moved on his own. He had saved up enough money from helping around his village to afford to rent out a tavern room for about two weeks. He worked long hours, and worked hard too. He had worked hard enough to earn enough money to purchase a small house on the outskirts of town. Working on the docks was hard work, unloading and loading cargo. The smell of fish ran rancid all down the dock. He had hated his job, it was hard and painful. but he was extremely desperate to make money and have a good life for himself.
After about 4 years working at the dock, he had saved up enough money to open his own merchant shop. He sold all the odds and ends imported from the farthest of lands. Business was good in the center of town where he had opened his storefront. He was well liked throughout the town as he had always been kind and helpful to anyone that needed it. He had saved up quite a bit of money from his store, and was planning on opening up his own tavern right next to his store. That is until a swift fire swept through the town burning down multiple buildings, including his house and his store. He decides his best option is to move to a distant city in hopes of fortune. He stops in to see his mother and father who have gotten very old, and tells them he will be back, and when he is back he will be wealthy.
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 . . .
