IC:
You step off the boat, stretching and taking a glance around at the new world, your new home. You take your first walk across the dock to the grass, and a young gentleman with a large book greets you. He speaks up in a less than cheery tone, its apparent he’s been doing this for a while, and is sick of it. Regardless of his mood, he greets you anyway. “We will need to ask you some questions, sir, before you step off into the world. Please answer truthfully and honestly, even though some things might seem to be worthless questions. Now, lets begin…” The man sighs, picking up his feather pen and opening to a fresh page in the book.
“What is your name? : "Name is Morganne. C-can call me Gan, i-i-if you want."
“How old are you?” : They take a moment to think, and eventually reply, "Seventeen. I-I-I think."
“What is your race?” : "M' a high elf." They sort of gesture toward themself in an attempt to convey their impressive height and general elfen qualities.
“What gender are you?” : They sort of hopelessly shrug and laugh, slightly nervous.
“How would you describe your personality?” : "I-I Don't do well with, with people," they mutter apologetically. "M' quiet. Stay out of trouble."
“How would you describe yourself in appearance?” : "Tall. skinny. I l-look nervous, I think." They are in fact tall, with close-cut, pale blonde hair and green eyes.Their posture is generally slouching, and their clothes are loose and comfortable.
“Any… Portraits of you?” :
(I have two. The second is the one I'd prefer, but I had a feeling it might not be accepted.)
“Any ambitions for the future?” : "Don't die. T-try to get a-a-a good job."
“Tell me a bit about your history.” : "Used t-to live in a little village, y'know. N-not many high elves there, just m-m-my family, a-and a few friends. W-worked in the orchards for awhile, b-but I'm not really s-suited to manual labor. M' weak. B-b-but no one liked m-my kind there, s-so I couldn't get a different j-job. Then my f-family started disap-p-pering. S-so, I got out."
Morganne used to live in a tiny settlement predominated by a clan of vastly racist night elves. Regular elves were rare, and high elves even rarer. Refugees of an enemy raid on their family's manor house, they were forced to move into the village. The citizens hated their new neighbors, and devised a plan to slowly eliminate them. None of the high elves noticed at first, as their number dwindled to just a handful due to what the night elves assured were just accidents and just disease. It was only after the high elf matriarch, incidentally Morganne's mother, fell that they knew that something was up. But then, it was too late. There were only a few allies left, not nearly enough to take a stand against their enemy. So, they spent all their efforts getting Morganne a way out, finally securing a place for them on a boat destined for a new land. And, now here we are in the present.
“What would you describe your morals as… Good, evil? In the middle?”: They kind of shrug. Chaotic good works.
“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses? : "M' good at hiding. Know my way around t-t-trees. N-not very s-strong, n-not good at talking."
“Anything you like? Or any fears?”: "B-books are nice. I like or-or-orchids. D-don't really, really trust night elves."
“Anything else you’d like to say?” : They shake their head slowly.
To be honest, I'm already whitelisted, but hey, applications are fun and great for letting people know about your character.

“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses?” "Oh, ser, I'm very smart, But I'm bad at communicating." *She laughs in a self-depreciating way.
“Anything you like? Or any fears?” "I love books, Being in the dark, Being alone. I'm afraid that I'll be married and have kids and never have my own time." She thinks for a moment."And I don't like dogs."

Whats your definition of Metagaming?: Using any information you would not know otherwise in RP. Like if the other character was hooded and you had never met, you would know their name right off the bat without any prior experience. That is metagaming.
Whats your definition of Powergaming?: Forcing action upon another person, as well as forcibly limiting RP to only one option, usually used in RP fighting to guarantee victory.
What does “Roleplaying” mean to you?: Taking on a character and adopting it as your own, and playing said character. It’s like acting in theatre IRL.

“How old are you?” : He shifts his balance slightly, looking the man up and down. "I am seventy five years of age."

She was an excellent parent, as was my father. I could not have asked for better. I grew up spoiled, little trouble had befallen our house for nearly three hundred cycles, and my time spent there was the same. Our house was well respected for its guidance of our people through the Fair-Isle crossing. something of a migration through a lush island setting in order to escape a volcanic eruption roughly one thousand years ago.
Our family, however, does not smile upon magical study. They see it as potentially dark and crippling. I do not subscribe to these beliefs. I took action and bought a ship ticket, leaving a note in my place telling them where to send their letters. My most recent letter was my formal public denouncement and removal from the house. And so here I stand, nameless."
“What would you describe your morals as… Good, evil? In the middle?” ((According to the alignment chart, somewhat similar to the DnD system. Lawful Good-Chaotic Evil, take your pick. You may have to look it up.) : "I am practical and humane in nature." http://easydamus.com/neutralgood.html
“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses? : "My strength lies in my mind. I am an intelligent and strong-willed individual capable of diligent study and research. My weakness, however, lies in my, well, weakness. My time honing my cunning and mental strength has left my body... wanting."

“What gender are you?” : "Ugh... I'm Male...
“How would you describe your personality?” : "Hm... that's an interesting question actually. Well, I consider myself a rather good guy. I mean, I'm nice, funny, charming, and Outgoing. You really have to be when you're an actor and directer though, You know? Oh you don't? Oh! One more thing. People tell me I am kinda arrogant, but I don't think so."
“How would you describe yourself in appearance?” : "Really? You can't just see me? Ok, I have brown hair, and brown eyes. I am fairly lean. I am quite handsome, if I do say so myself. Certainly more handsome than some of these people, you know what I mean?"
“Any ambitions for the future?” : "I really want to bring the culture of acting to this uncultured society. No offense, of course."
“Tell me a bit about your history.” : ((For the history section, be as detailed as you wish, although there is no need to go overboard))
"I was born in a large city called Istali. There, culture rules the streets like a drug lord... well, I guess a drug lord does actually rule the streets, but that's besides the point. Anyways, when I was very young, my parents and I joined the Carnival that came to Istali every 5 months. My mother was a dancer, and my father could play any instrument you gave him. I came from a long line of talented people, you could say. More about me now. When I was thirteen, I had a crush on a fellow Carnie. She was an actress named... well, quite frankly, I can't remember her name. Anyways, in order to impress her, I abandoned my ticket booth for my parents and became an actor. I lost interest in her shortly after, but I still love to act. Eventually, when I was 19, I left the carnival to further pursue my acting career and wound up here."
“What would you describe your morals as… Good, evil? In the middle?” ((According to the alignment chart, somewhat similar to the DnD system. Lawful Good-Chaotic Evil, take your pick. You may have to look it up.)) "I would say Good. Maybe a little more neutral, but I don't generally break the law. I am a law abiding citizen."
“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses?” My strengths? Acting of course. I also am quite good at directing and play writing, though I do accept other material other than what I write. Weaknesses? I would say I don't have any, but I am only just a man, despite what you may be thinking of me right now. I do not engage in something as barbaric as fighting (though I do do fight scenes). I don't even know how to use a weapon."
“Anything you like? Or any fears?” "I am fairly simple. I like myself, acting, fine arts, and women. Not even just the pretty ones, though they are my favorite. I do fear a few things, in fact. I am scared of lava. Just the idea of a liquid that could set you on fire... Ugh. Gives me the chills just thinking about it. I also do not like thieves. I wouldn't say I fear them, but I do not enjoy them. If one of them is funny, say, robs me and fills my house with potatoes, then I would like that particular thief."

“What is your name? : "Name is Morganne. C-can call me Gan, i-i-if you want."
“How old are you?” : They take a moment to think, and eventually reply, "Seventeen. I-I-I think."
“What is your race?” : "M' a high elf." They sort of gesture toward themself in an attempt to convey their impressive height and general elfen qualities.
“What gender are you?” : They sort of hopelessly shrug and laugh, slightly nervous.
“How would you describe your personality?” : "I-I Don't do well with, with people," they mutter apologetically. "M' quiet. Stay out of trouble."
“How would you describe yourself in appearance?” : "Tall. skinny. I l-look nervous, I think." They are in fact tall, with close-cut, pale blonde hair and green eyes.Their posture is generally slouching, and their clothes are loose and comfortable.
“Any… Portraits of you?” :
(I have two. The second is the one I'd prefer, but I had a feeling it might not be accepted.)
“Any ambitions for the future?” : "Don't die. T-try to get a-a-a good job."
“Tell me a bit about your history.” : "Used t-to live in a little village, y'know. N-not many high elves there, just m-m-my family, a-and a few friends. W-worked in the orchards for awhile, b-but I'm not really s-suited to manual labor. M' weak. B-b-but no one liked m-my kind there, s-so I couldn't get a different j-job. Then my f-family started disap-p-pering. S-so, I got out."
Morganne used to live in a tiny settlement predominated by a clan of vastly racist night elves. Regular elves were rare, and high elves even rarer. Refugees of an enemy raid on their family's manor house, they were forced to move into the village. The citizens hated their new neighbors, and devised a plan to slowly eliminate them. None of the high elves noticed at first, as their number dwindled to just a handful due to what the night elves assured were just accidents and just disease. It was only after the high elf matriarch, incidentally Morganne's mother, fell that they knew that something was up. But then, it was too late. There were only a few allies left, not nearly enough to take a stand against their enemy. So, they spent all their efforts getting Morganne a way out, finally securing a place for them on a boat destined for a new land. And, now here we are in the present.
“What would you describe your morals as… Good, evil? In the middle?”: They kind of shrug. Chaotic good works.
“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses? : "M' good at hiding. Know my way around t-t-trees. N-not very s-strong, n-not good at talking."
“Anything you like? Or any fears?”: "B-books are nice. I like or-or-orchids. D-don't really, really trust night elves."
“Anything else you’d like to say?” : They shake their head slowly.

You step off the boat, stretching and taking a glance around at the new world, your new home. You take your first walk across the dock to the grass, and a young gentleman with a large book greets you. He speaks up in a less than cheery tone, its apparent he’s been doing this for a while, and is sick of it. Regardless of his mood, he greets you anyway. “We will need to ask you some questions, sir, before you step off into the world. Please answer truthfully and honestly, even though some things might seem to be worthless questions. Now, lets begin…” The man sighs, picking up his feather pen and opening to a fresh page in the book.
“What is your name?” :"My Name is Jasper. Yes, I am a girl, It is a girl's name. Jasper Mil-O-Quet."
“How old are you?” : *She rocks back and forth on her heels, smiling. "21, I am 21, yes, just had my birthday."
“What is your race?” :"I am, Ser, I am a half-Elf Half-Human."
“What gender are you?” :"I'm a girl. Just said." *Her smile falters slightly. She continues rocking on her heels.
“How would you describe your personality?” :" Eccentric? I dont, Don't quite know what it means, But I've been called Eccentric. I'm, Yes, I'm kind-of Uppity. Spacey. I'm, ser, I'm weird, I guess?"
*She rubs off as that, but she doesnt seem to want to add she's dark and private.
“How would you describe yourself in appearance?” : " I, Sir, I have long dark hair and very pale skin, Black eyes, Pink lips, and a whole appearance, that, er, doe'n't suit me, ser, not really."
“Any… Portraits of you?”((Please provide a screen-shot of your skin, this can be done by entering singleplayer, pressing f5 twice, then f1, then pressing f2 to take the screenshot.))
“Any ambitions for the future?” : " uerrr..." She pauses for a moment to think about what she wants to do. Her face turns thoughtful."I want to live life to its fullest, ser, and, and see everything!"
“Tell me a bit about your history.” : ((For the history section, be as detailed as you wish, although there is no need to go overboard))
"I, err, I was born far away from here, and, I went to small school, I rode horses, and I liked to be alone, and read, And my parents thought I was weird so I went to a boarding school, then I was an apprentice. Just, uerr, just stopped being an apprentice a few months, weeks, err, a little while a~go."
“What would you describe your morals as… Good, evil? In the middle?” ((According to the alignment chart, somewhat similar to the DnD system. Lawful Good-Chaotic Evil, take your pick. You may have to look it up.))
"I'd say I'm i'm good-in-between."((Lawful-Neutral. I may change that and be evil later.))
“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses?”
"Oh, ser, I'm very smart, But I'm bad at communicating." *She laughs in a self-depreciating way.
“Anything you like? Or any fears?”
"I love books, Being in the dark, Being alone. I'm afraid that I'll be married and have kids and never have my own time." She thinks for a moment."And I don't like dogs."
“Anything else you’d like to say?”
"Well, If I, can, I'd ay, Uh, I want to be a~lone as soon-as-possible! I'm overstimulated!" *She laughs but seems uneasy by now.

Whats your definition of Metagaming?: Using any information you would not know otherwise in RP. Like if the other character was hooded and you had never met, you would know their name right off the bat without any prior experience. That is metagaming.
Whats your definition of Powergaming?: Forcing action upon another person, as well as forcibly limiting RP to only one option, usually used in RP fighting to guarantee victory.
What does “Roleplaying” mean to you?: Taking on a character and adopting it as your own, and playing said character. It’s like acting in theatre IRL.

Whats your definition of Metagaming? Metagaming is the act of using outside information to influence your character's decisions. Applying omniscient thought and strategies based on occurrences you are OOCly aware will happen or are happening.
Whats your definition of Powergaming? Powergaming is the act of using in game rules to create the most powerful character you can. The most offensive of these transgressions is those characters used for winning or the advancement of personal agenda. PG is gross plz remove.

“What is your name?” : "Caelria." He says, folding his hands behind his back and shifting to pay attention to the young gent.
“How old are you?” : He shifts his balance slightly, looking the man up and down. "I am seventy five years of age."
“What is your race?” : Caelria wonders why the man didn't so much as bother to even look up at him, he rolls his eyes before speaking. "High Elf."
“What gender are you?” : "Male." He grumbles.
“How would you describe your personality?” : "I tend to be referred to as Wise and Intelligent, but also Snide and Sarcastic. Two traits that flow well together, no? He says, waiting for the man's response and grunting when he merely speaks his next question.
“How would you describe yourself in appearance?” : "I've Platinum hair and Purple irises, my skin is fair, and I'm 6'6... That's 2 meters exactly if you're willing to embrace the superior system of measurement."

“Any ambitions for the future?” : "I wish to become a Powerful Mage and Scholar of the Arcane Arts."
“Tell me a bit about your history.” : ((For the history section, be as detailed as you wish, although there is no need to go overboard)) : "My life, naturally, began in my mother's belly. She was an excellent parent, as was my father. I could not have asked for better. I grew up spoiled, little trouble had befallen our house for nearly three hundred cycles, and my time spent there was the same. Our house was well respected for its guidance of our people through the Fair-Isle crossing. something of a migration through a lush island setting in order to escape a volcanic eruption roughly one thousand years ago.
Our family, however, does not smile upon magical study. They see it as potentially dark and crippling. I do not subscribe to these beliefs. I took action and bought a ship ticket, leaving a note in my place telling them where to send their letters. My most recent letter was my formal public denouncement and removal from the house. And so here I stand, nameless."
“What would you describe your morals as… Good, evil? In the middle?” ((According to the alignment chart, somewhat similar to the DnD system. Lawful Good-Chaotic Evil, take your pick. You may have to look it up.) : "I am practical and humane in nature." http://easydamus.com/neutralgood.html
“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses? : "My strength lies in my mind. I am an intelligent and strong-willed individual capable of diligent study and research. My weakness, however, lies in my, well, weakness. My time honing my cunning and mental strength has left my body... wanting."
“Anything you like? Or any fear?" : "Besides the obvious likes and dislikes I tend to enjoy reading."
“Anything else you’d like to say?" : "No."

What does “Roleplaying” mean to you?: I like to think of it in acting terms (I am an actor, you see). In acting terms we'd call it improv. Basically, it means you take a situation or character and you react how you would as that character or in that situation

“What is your name?” : "Brutus Stallini. That's S T A L L ini. Got it? I'd remember it."
“How old are you?” : "I am 21 years old. In a couple of months I'll be 22."
“What is your race?” : "I'm human, if you couldn't tell... Do you have to ask the obvious questions?"
“What gender are you?” : "Ugh... I'm Male...
“How would you describe your personality?” : "Hm... that's an interesting question actually. Well, I consider myself a rather good guy. I mean, I'm nice, funny, charming, and Outgoing. You really have to be when you're an actor and directer though, You know? Oh you don't? Oh! One more thing. People tell me I am kinda arrogant, but I don't think so."
“How would you describe yourself in appearance?” : "Really? You can't just see me? Ok, I have brown hair, and brown eyes. I am fairly lean. I am quite handsome, if I do say so myself. Certainly more handsome than some of these people, you know what I mean?"

“Any ambitions for the future?” : "I really want to bring the culture of acting to this uncultured society. No offense, of course."
“Tell me a bit about your history.” : ((For the history section, be as detailed as you wish, although there is no need to go overboard))
"I was born in a large city called Istali. There, culture rules the streets like a drug lord... well, I guess a drug lord does actually rule the streets, but that's besides the point. Anyways, when I was very young, my parents and I joined the Carnival that came to Istali every 5 months. My mother was a dancer, and my father could play any instrument you gave him. I came from a long line of talented people, you could say.
More about me now. When I was thirteen, I had a crush on a fellow Carnie. She was an actress named... well, quite frankly, I can't remember her name. Anyways, in order to impress her, I abandoned my ticket booth for my parents and became an actor. I lost interest in her shortly after, but I still love to act.
Eventually, when I was 19, I left the carnival to further pursue my acting career and wound up here."
“What would you describe your morals as… Good, evil? In the middle?” ((According to the alignment chart, somewhat similar to the DnD system. Lawful Good-Chaotic Evil, take your pick. You may have to look it up.)) "I would say Good. Maybe a little more neutral, but I don't generally break the law. I am a law abiding citizen."
“What are some strengths or yours, and some weaknesses?” My strengths? Acting of course. I also am quite good at directing and play writing, though I do accept other material other than what I write.
Weaknesses? I would say I don't have any, but I am only just a man, despite what you may be thinking of me right now. I do not engage in something as barbaric as fighting (though I do do fight scenes). I don't even know how to use a weapon."
“Anything you like? Or any fears?” "I am fairly simple. I like myself, acting, fine arts, and women. Not even just the pretty ones, though they are my favorite.
I do fear a few things, in fact. I am scared of lava. Just the idea of a liquid that could set you on fire... Ugh. Gives me the chills just thinking about it. I also do not like thieves. I wouldn't say I fear them, but I do not enjoy them. If one of them is funny, say, robs me and fills my house with potatoes, then I would like that particular thief."
“Anything else you’d like to say?” "Just some advice for you. If you want a tip, you should act more enthusiastic. And don't ask the stupid questions."
The man nods, turning to a fresh page after the writing is done. “Good sir, welcome to the new world.” He turns away, letting you walk past, and greets the next person the same… You’ve made it, welcome to your new life.
