CynicalPessimisim's (Obliviaen) Whitelist Application

Post: # 12385Post CynicalPessimism »

—Player Questions—
Minecraft Username: Obliviaen
Age: 16
Where did you hear about us: I found about you via google.
Tell us a little about yourself: Hello! My name is Luke, and I'm a Sixteen year old student studying Media and Psychology. I enjoy roleplay, singing, and gaming in my free time. I'm also a massive pokemon nerd.

—Roleplay Questions—
[ Please use your own words. ]
What is roleplaying? Roleplaying is placing yourself into the mind of a character, and acting and speaking as said character would.
What is meta-gaming? Meta gaming is the use of OOC information ICly, such as using someone's location on the Dynamic map to find them ICly.
What is power-gaming? Powergaming is when you dictate another player's actions for them, or allowing yourself to become extremely overpowered in roleplay. An example of such would be 'Player A attempts to lunge towards Player B, hoping to tackle him.' 'Player B stops Player A with his fist, grabbing Player A's arm and breaking it, before starting to run off.'
What is retroactive continuity? Retroactive continuity - also known as Retcon - is changing something that happened in the past, an example of this being if someone was to change their backstory from what it originally was.
What is a Mary Sue? A Mary Sue is a 'perfect' character, with seemingly no limits or weaknesses, rendering them practically invunerable. *cough* Batman *cough*
What is the difference between in-character (IC) and out-of-character (OOC)? In-Character is when you are roleplay as your character. Everything you do and say is what the character would say, not what you as a player would say/do. Out of Character is when you are not playing a character, and are just yourself.
Do you have previous experience playing on a RP server? I've played on several roleplay servers - mostly dark medieval roleplay servers - and I'm looking for a lighter roleplay experience here, and I am also very excited to find what seems like a serious pixelmon rp server, something I've been trying to find for a while.

—In-Game Lore Questions (Please answer in your own words)—
Describe any city in Toro of your choosing: : Ferrite is a city situated in the north. It is the town of science and learning, and has a Pixelmon lab that people can use. As well as this, it houses the Region’s university.
Describe Pix Co.: PIx co is massive corporation that has it's headquarters in Aurelia, the capital of the Toro Reigon. It is best known for the creation of the pixelball, as well as the hydroelectric plant, and two laboratories they own within the reigon.

—General Character Questions—
[ There is a one paragraph minimum for the appearance, biography, and personality ]
Full name: Raymond Kingston
Age: 29
Appearance: Raymond is a man of average height, standing around 6"1. He has very pale skin and long, jetback hair, accompanying his piercing, pale blue eyes. He can usually be seen wearing a full black suit with red accents along it - situated on the sleeves and around the collar - with a white shirt underneath. He is quite handsome, but not very muscular, with a lanky body. Due to his complexion, he is quite commonly compared to that of a vampire.
Biography: Raymond was born into a wealthy family in Viridian City, in the Kanto Reigon. During his childhood, he was not permitted to leave the family estate, and was homeschooled by the various staff on site. As soon as he reached his adolescence however, he began to sneak out, frequenting Clubs, Casinos, and Bars, picking up several unhealthy addictions. This is also where he won an egg through a game of blackjack - which eventually hatched to become a Larvitar named Trixie - that was soon to become his partner in crime. Eventually however, his debts amassed to very substantial amounts, large enough that he was under threat in Viridian city, owing more money than he could pay back. This forced him to flee the Kanto reigon, hoping to gain a fresh start, and avoid conflict.
Personality: Raymond is always surrounded by an aura of charming mystery, and he acts like that of an upper class gentleman, even though his current financial situation conflicts with this greatly. He is an extrovert, and as a result he loves to be around people, and to be the centre of attention. He is a very suave man, and will always attempt to talk his way out of a situation, as he is of no use in any kind of physical situation.
Flaws: Raymond is however, a man with several flaws. Due to various events in his history, he has both a gambling and drinking addiction, which can get him into several scrapes, when paired with his arrogance. He is also physically weak, and will be of no use in a situation that requires any strength.
Ambitions: Raymond aspires to be a jazz singer, or a television star. His end goal is to bring respect and power to his name.

Skin: I don't have a skin yet, I plan to get one if/when I am whitelisted using the New Player Skin Shop thread thing.

—Open Response Questions—
[Respond to at least 2 of the 3 scenarios.]

After arriving in Toro a cheerful woman walks up to you, a clipboard in her hand. “Hello and welcome to Toro! I would like to ask where you came from and why you came, as well as where you plan to go. All for for statistical reasons of course.” she asked with a bright smile as she held a pen to her clipboard. How does your character respond?

Raymond gave a small chuckle, pushing a strand of hair from his eyes. "Well hello to you too, Miss. I'm here in the Toro reigon to become a star, of course!" The woman blushed slightly, clearing her throat before she jotted that down onto her clipboard. "And where are you from, Mister...?" He grinned - straightening his collar - before replying. "Kingston, Raymond Kingston. It truely is a pleasure." She continued to jot down what he was saying, keeping her eyes fixed on the clipboard. "And where are you from, Mister Kingston?" "Well miss, I come from a place called Viridian, it is a city in the Kanto reigon. Now that I arrived here, I plan to head to the city of Carmine, to party to my heart's content!" Raymond pulled out his pocketwatch, checking the time, before feigning a gasp. "Well would you look at the time? I'm so sorry, but I've got to be off! Perhaps we can meet for a drink some time perhaps?" He gave her a sly wink, before starting to saunter away, whistling happily as he did. The woman watched him walk of, confused as to what had just happened.

You are walking along the road when your eyes lock onto a trainer's in the distance. At that moment, you both freeze in place. You see a glimmer in the trainer's eyes as he reaches for his Pixelball. "Go, Rattata! Show this chump what we've been training for!" the trainer shouts as he swiftly releases his chosen partner in the vacant space that separates the two of you. How does your character respond?

Raymond stopped as the Rattata materialised in front of him, starting to chuckle as he pulled a pixelball out of his pocket. "Come on out, Trixie. Show this fool who's a chump." With a flash of red light, Trixie the Larvitar appeared in front of Raymond, glancing back to Raymond, before staring down the Rattata, preparing to attack. Raymond glanced at his opponent once more, and seeing the determination in his eyes, gave the order for Trixie to attack, iniating the fight.

As the two pokemon clashed, Raymond confidently laughed to himself. He'd dealt with countless Rattata back in Kanto, and this one would be no different. The two continued to fight, the Rattata barely making a scratch on Trixie, due to her natural resistance to normal type moves. "Just give up now, there's no way you can win this." Chuckled Raymond, looking over to the other trainer. The Larvitar used bite, doing a serious amount of damage to Rattata, causing it to stumble back. The trainer spoke up suddenly, shocking Raymond. "Now Rattata, use Counter!" The move collided with Trixie, causing her to fall back, completely unconscious.

"Great job Rattata!" The other trainer walked up to Raymond, holding out his hand. "Hey, thanks for the great battle, friend!" Raymond ignored him and grunted, shrugging his shoulders and picking up Trixie, before walking away, headed towards the nearest pokemon centre to get her healed up.

Heyo! I'm Misha and I looked over your app! Overall it looks good, there's a few things that could use some expanding on though~

• Your personality & appearance needs to be at least 5 full sentences. They're just a bit short~
• You are completely missing a biography, which, to note, also needs to be 5 full sentences! It has to also include on why and how your character came to Toro in specific- it could be a simple reason, just any reason. This post has a little bit of help with biography ideas: http://www.toro-league.com/forum/viewto ... 125#p12125
• If you just submit an app into the skin shop now then I won't mind not having a skin~

Besides that: interesting character, and I can tell you can definitely roleplay! If you can fix these I'd be more than happy to accept you. If you have any questions, problems, or concerns feel free to post or contact me on skype under the user Mishakiara. Once you fix it post a reply so I know you've done so. Thank you for applying, and have a nice day~
