I previously posted an introduction, and didn't realize there was an actual template, sorry about that.
First and foremost: Tell us about yourself, as a player:
Eh, I'm a pretty laid back dude, I treat anyone I meet with a general respect, unless they prove to me they don't deserve respect, in which case I withdraw it and ignore them.
What country do you come from? What is your primary language?:
I live in New York, The US. I speak English.
How did you get into Warcraft?:
I first played Diablo as a kid, which got me into blizzard games, Eventually I started Wacraft 3, and then WoW.
How did you find us? Did anything in particular draw you to the server?:
Well, I never actually got into roleplaying until I discovered private servers. Due to IRL complications, it became difficult to keep paying for retail. I started roleplaying on a server that died a long time ago, Dominion WoW. When that server died I moved on to Echeloned, which also died. Recently I have played a server that I don't want to name, because it is still active, and I don't want to advertise it. The roleplay quality has declined on that server significantly, along with the quality of the staff, so I decided to find something different. I have known of CoTH for a long time, I just never really got into it. Levelling really isn't my thing, but it's better than nothing.
What kinds of roleplay do you enjoy?:
Anything really, I have RP'd many roles including an Eredar of the Burning Legion, a Demon Hunter, a Gnomish Techno-Mage that eventually turned into a Techno-Warlock, A Human exorcist living in Darkshire. There's some others aswell, these are just a few.
What is your favorite race/class? Why?:
I would have to say, Eredar Warlock. Simply because I love their lore/background, I know it well, and the way that they are played is really fitting to my style. Sitting back while your minions fight in your name and the name of your Legion, Manipulating and Decieving your enemies into their own undoing. Fun stuff, yet really overpowered.
What are your expectations of this server?:
Honestly, as long as the roleplay quality and the staff is better than the last server I was on, I don't really care. xD
Out of all of our rules and regulations listed on our server, which appeals to you the most?:
The fact you have to make an introduction is really appealing, it means that the population has been filtered by the staff to ensure a quality experience for anyone worthy of playing. Also, "NO MARY-SUEs" Hahahaha, awesome.
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!:
Ugh.. I typed one out on my failed application.. It was about 6 paragraphs long.. I will type up a new one, but it won't be nearly as long or good.
This is the story all about how my life got flipped turned upside down, I'd like to take a minute so sit right there, I'll tell you how I became the duke of a town called Darkshire. ((Lolz, I had to.)) ((But on a serious note
)
"Greetings my Azerothian brothers and sisters. This is the story of Alexander Harris. A man born with a gruesome, dark fate. Alex was born in captivity, his mother was murdered after his birth was complete. His captors, Are Burning Legion Acolytes. Why would The Legion have such interest in a Human? Simple, One of their Masters, A powerful Eredun Warlock, has chosen this child to be his vessel, to be his guise.
During his captivity, The Acolytes train Alex in the arts of Melee combat. In order to keep his body as clean as possible, they did not put any forms of corruption into him. His training started at the age of 10, and would continue for the next decade.
Upon the age of Twenty One, Alex realized that his captors murdered his mother, and took revenge on them. One night, while he was believed to be asleep, he snuck out of his tent, and began silently slaughtering the Legion Acolytes. One by one they fell, as their blood stained Alex's blade and clothing. Not a single one was ever alerted of his presence.
After his captors were dead, Alex fled the cave he was being held in, wandering through the dark disorienting forests of Duskwood, He began hearing a voice. The voice claimed to be the spirit of his mother, and led him in circles around the forest for days. After becoming exhausted, and starving, Alex begs the voice for death, to end his suffering.
This is the end of Alex's story. His soul, his memories, his life, all cease to exist after this point, as his spirit is locked away in a soul prison. Now, the spirit of a Legion Man'ari, by the name of Saethius controls the body of Alexander, using it as his guise to manipulate the mortals of Azeroth, twisting their minds to carry out his will."
Is there anything else you would like to add, ask, or otherwise clarify?:
Yeah, my first application, I did not realize there was an actual Template for it, I kind of just started typing up a story. I hope that does not affect your decision, everyone makes mistakes. I hope to meet you all ICly some day. Thank you for your time.
