First and foremost: Tell us about yourself, as a player:
I'm a college-bound high school-er, in International Baccalaureate and hating it. Instead of memorizing textbooks I play video games. My current favorite is Minecraft but I can be found on Steam playing everything from The Witcher 2 to Team Fortress 2. I am looking to returning to a keyboard after a few months of inactivity. I keyboard-fu is weak after so many teamspeak-enabled FPS's and solo RPGs that require no text entries.
What country do you come from? What is your primary language?:
I was born in Florida, USA . My primary language is English but as required by IB, I am acquiring Spanish.
How did you get into Warcraft?:
On a trip to Waly-World as a young boy I saw the last shiny new copy of World of Warcraft sitting on the shelf. Being a sixth-grade-infinite-fount-of-wisdom I instantly knew that the scarcity of the game on the shelf was an assurance of it's quality. My mom caved and bought it,
after about a half-hour of relentless begging.
What made you seek our server over others?:
After about an hour of Ozewse telling how amazing the server was, I decided to look into it. It's my fault he's addicted to this game anyway, so I obliged. He's so excited he's actually typing this for me right now just to polish up his typing skills. Though really it should be me working on -mine- but I'm at his house and he's too excited to let me do it myself.
What kinds of roleplay do you enjoy?:
Tavern setting is what I have the most experience with; I would be grinding the daylight hours away and spending the evening in Ratchet or Silvermoon, embellishing my character's conquests.
What is your favorite race/class? Why?:
I enjoy Orc-lore, I respect their struggle against the world. My second favorite is the Forsaken because I get a cathartic pleasure from entertaining a grudge and I dislike playing stereotypical 'pretty' characters.
'Favorite Class' is a tough question. It's going to be hard for me to change from an RP server on Retail to an ACTUAL RP environment, I almost feel tainted by my preconceived ideas of how classes work based on combat -in-game- so at this point I am going to take a shot and say I like mages. I'm not going to expand on it currently because I really have never focused on a class's -lore- rather than mechanics in-game.
What are your expectations of this server?:
Judging by the extensive library of information made available to me by this seemingly wonderful community, as well as Ozewse's insane ranting and raving over it being so perfect for RP, I expect much. I am hopeful they will be kind to a previously more casual RPer as he develops his wordsmith's ability.
Out of all of our rules and regulations listed on our server, which appeals to you the most?:
"Humility" Was definitely a valuable lesson for me when I started RP at 13 years of age. I fully comprehended the magnitude of how much of a loser you can make yourself out by metaphorically yelling out how much of a winner you are. As roleplayers, it is our goal to craft a good story for all involved; not to create a 'Mary Sue.'
Lastly, tell us a story! It can be short, it can be long; but most importantly, we want to see your work in action. Go!:
I would like to postpone this due to my writing being out of practice.
Is there anything else you would like to add, ask, or otherwise clarify?:
I did -not- type this alone, this was typed by my trusted character witness/ lifelong friend, Ozewse, however, the words are entirely mine. I have proofread it and it is exactly what I would have typed with my own hands, I just currently took advantage of having a slightly faster typist; who as of today is my only connection to the internet until later this afternoon.
