About You!
1. What is your Minecraft username?
SaltyCrumpet
2. How old are you?
19
3. What country are you from?
England
4. Have you read the King's Law, Tome of Citizenship, Official Lore, and the Survival Guides yet?
Yes
5. In your own words, how would you define metagaming and powergaming?
Metagaming is using knowldge outside of the game to advance yourself. Such as, knowing a person's background without having spoken to the player or meeting them previously.
Powergaming is also known as godmodding, where I'm from. It's making your person so OP, others can't counter. Or, in some cases, deciding other player's actions. You can't say "He told me this so I responded blah blah" etc.
6. Do we allow X-Raying mods or X-Ray texture packs on the server?
No, definitely not.
7. Name one of our current Mentors.
Glados
8. Tell us about yourself!
Hi! I'm SaltyCrumpet, else known as Jordy. I'm, obviously, into Minecraft, baking, and study Criminology at University! Unfortunately, I do not have any pets, unless my boyfriend counts? I'm into all sorts of things - music-wise, I listen to things from Disney, to rock, to musicals. Currently highly obsessed with Hamilton and have managed to book tickets to see it in May next year! So I'm often found either discussing theatre, or at the theatre, despite lacking in any talent regarding it whatsoever. I live with my boyfriend, I like to eat, and I'm generally a pretty nice person to get along with, I think!
9. Do you have any examples of your work?
I am a writer! Unfortunately, I haven't written anything in a looooong time, but here's a small excerpt of some of my writing from eeh, 5 years ago?
Father was so much kinder back then; he was a happier man from what I remember in my limited five year old memories.
But once she’d gone, he had nothing but two young daughters. One perfect, one always in trouble because of the pain her mother’s death had caused her. That was before I was taught how emotions influence my true capabilities. Feelings make you weak, make you a worse soldier because if you can’t control your feelings and emotions, you might as well not fight. But I can't help it when it comes to my family. Or, at the very least, when it comes to Kat. I have to learn to suppress it, change it, or, at the very least, hide it.
I no longer look out from the balcony onto the Capitol. It’s not as if they care for me, or anyone else. They just help reinforce my new perspective of not giving a damn about anyone.

About Your Character!
Character Name:
Katarina Jonson
Character Age:
18
Character Race:
Forest Elf
Appearance:
Katarina's hair is a dark brown, as is typical for her race. Again, her eyes bear a similar colour to her hair, although perhaps slightly lighter. She is also mildly tanned, but by far not as tanned as some of her people. While she prefers to steer clear from the animal skins, she does possess a few animal items for those cold days. Being a cook alike her mother, she does not have to wear anything specialist but as such, is not often seen in the finer clothing some of her counterparts wear.
(Optional) Picture of the Skin:
(Apologies, haven't changed my skin in game to represent her yet, but will describe what I shall be looking for);
Kat dresses simply, as mentioned above, her animal skin items are few and far between unless she is joining the hunters in preparation for her cooking meals. She is often seen wearing her woolen items, although should she be cooking, this is perhaps transferred to a more cotton-like clothing to prevent the wool getting destroyed. However, she does also favour leather items, even if she does stay away from pelts, so it is not uncommon to see her in a tunic and leather pants.
Written Test!Katarina was not one of those heroes you read about in the stories. She was instead rather ordinary for a Forest Elf. She was not a pro hunter, nor were she the best cook that one had ever seen. However, what she lacked in hero-ness, she made up for plenty in her behaviour. While Katarina, often shortened to Kata, was a cook, she also found time to progress herself in other disciplines. She was almost always a kind, and generous, person - more than willing to help out her people, or even others, if they were to need food. She had an interest in most cultures, preferring not to restrict herself to her one alone. While she was a young elf, this meant that she respected all those above her in age; but also those below her. Children were not the most common in her race, so any were treated with reverence by all, and not lease by Kata. Her parents only had her as a child, although this doesn't mean she didn't often with for other siblings. But then, she also saw her entire race as her family. She may have been a quiet person, but she was also emotionally involved in the lives of many others.
I woke up one morning, an early riser, but when you are to cook breakfast for family - you have to be. My father and mother would be rising soon, but I wished to treat them before they went on to their respective jobs. And we Forest Elves /are/ well known for our love for food after all. I prepare a small feast - a few fruit for their day, a small selection of pork, and some vegetables to keep them energised for all our busy days ahead. I'd had little work to do today, so had been excused and invited on a hunt with my father, due to a member of his party being unable to make it. While a tragedy on the hunter's part, it meant I got more time with my father, and more practice with my hunting skills.
With breakfast being prepared, mother and father awake and eating, I went to go get ready. A chilly day meant a fur cloak, unless I wished to freeze. I pulled out my favourite, and got dressed, using leather pants for the trip away. It would only have been a couple of days, which was plenty of time to get enough spoils to feed the people. Ready and dressed, father and I grabbed our bows and went to meet the hunting company we would be away with. One thing for sure, this was going to be a fun and fulfilling trip.
