-Player Questions-
Minecraft Username: SoSeriousCyrus

Discord Username: (If applicable! To help us contact you if we need to) SoSeriousCyrus#7803

Age: 25

Where did you hear about us: (If it was from a friend it helps to say which one) Cammy Cakes told me about the server.

Tell us a little about yourself: My name is Cyrus, and I’m a long time fan of the Pokemon series, Minecraft, and RP. I work a full time job, but I still manage to play MC on a pretty regular basis. I’m pretty chill to be around, and I try to not be a stranger.

-Roleplay Questions-
[ Please use your own words. ]

What is roleplaying? Roleplaying is the act of playing the role of a character in a game/movie/play/etc.

What is meta-gaming? Metagaming is acting using out of game knowledge that your character would not reasonably have. I.e. you knowing the location of your character’s archenemy and seeking them out, despite your character not having that info.

What is power-gaming / god-modding? Powergaming is RPing actions with another player that do not allow them to have their own input. So something to the effect of “My Tyranitar hyperbeams your Pikachu, fainting him instantly!” Since it doesn’t give the other player to decide if Pikachu fainting is what he wants to happen.

What is retroactive continuity? (retcon): A retcon is going backwards to change certain aspects of a character, event, or situation. In other words, it’s like if I originally wrote my character came from Kalos, then later saying “Oh, actually he came from Sinnoh”

What is the difference between in-character (IC) and out-of-character (OOC)? In character happens in the perspective/ experience of the character. Out of character refers to what happens to the person playing the character. So if you say, “I have to get dinner (Ooc)” then that means your character isn’t getting dinner, you as a player are getting dinner.

Do you have previous experience playing on a RP server? (This won’t affect your acceptance) Sort of. I’ve played on Stoneworks worldbuilding for over a year. I also do DnD irl, and have been part of the hobby for nearly 8 years.

-General Character Questions-
[There is a one full paragraph (at least 5 sentences) minimum for the appearance, biography, and personality. This is for each of these parts and not put together. Your first character must come from a region that isn't Toro.]

Full name: Kari Kingu

Age: 19

Appearance: Kari is a ghost/psychic trainer with feminine build. Kari has blue eyes and does not often wear overly flashy makeup. She has fair skin with black hair that she styles into six buns on the back of her head. Kari wears a purple robe that cuts off just above her knees, tied off at the waist with a golden colored sash. She does not often wear shoes in order to maintain a "stronger psychic connection" with the ground.

Personality: Kari is a quiet and reticent person, although she is by no means a hermit. She often enjoys the quiet company of others, whether or not that company involves simply sitting next to one another. Kari considers every possibility before acting on a decision, almost to a fault. She likes to see the best in people, although she is quick to note the flaws in others as well as herself. Kari does not take much stock in things that don’t have concrete proof, although she conversely holds the false belief that psychic energy can be controlled by humans. She does not like to consider things based solely on a “gut feeling.”

Biography: Kari was born in Solaceon Town of the Sinnoh Region, to parents that worked as caretakers of the Lost Tower. Having been surrounded by Ghost Pokemon for most of her life, Kari has developed an affinity for the occult, and began researching how to become a psychic. Kari's parents tried to tell her that psychics aren't real, but this did not stop Kari, who continued her research. This research eventually led her to meet Mordricia, a self proclaimed "psychic" who offered to become her mentor, much to her parents’ dismay. Knowing they would ban her from seeing Mordicia, Kari fled to the forest one night. As she ran through the dark woods, a group of Shinx noticed her and gave chase. She was nearly surrounded by them when a lone Misdreavus came to the rescue. Her parents, seeing the connection between Kari and the Misdreavus, gave their blessing to continue her training. Hearing of a far off region known as the Toro Region, Kari and the Misdreavus set off to explore the region and become even more versed in occult knowledge.

Flaws: Kari has a debilitating fear of electric type Pokemon, particularly Shinx and their evolved forms. Kari is also somewhat socially awkward, and can come off as uninterested.

Ambitions: Kari seeks to become a stronger psychic and Ghost Type trainer.

Starter Pixelmon: [ You can get any Pokemon at Level 5- so first evolutions if they evolve! No Legendaries/Mythicals ] Misdreavus

Skin: (Please include a screenshot of the front and back or the skin itself.) Kari Kingu (pixelmon)

-Open Response Questions-
-Write in third person!-
[Respond to at least 2 of the 3 scenarios. There is a one full paragraph (at least 5 sentences) minimum for each of the scenarios you choose, and responses must be written in third person and formatted like RP instead of a description. Like: ' Steve focuses on the girl with a gasp and asks, " How can I help? " ' other than ' Steve would answer the call to help the cat! Feel free to make responses for the NPC in order to meet this requirement.]

You find yourself standing in a bustling town. Suddenly, a small girl runs up to you, her eyes seeming to glisten with fresh tears as her bottom lip quivers. “Please!” She cries out to you, “You must help me! My poor Meowth is stuck in a tree!” She points to a nearby tree as more tears spill out of her eyes and down her cheeks. How does your character respond?


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?

“Uh, sure? What were the questions again?” Kari replies.


“Where did you come from? And why did you come here?” The woman repeats, her smile still unfaltering.

“I come from the Sinnoh region, Solaceon Town. And why I’m here, well Misdreavus and I felt compelled to come here. You know how it is, sometimes you get a strong feeling. Like destiny almost. Is that all you needed to know?”

“That’s all! Thank you very much and welcome to Toro,” she says, handing Kari a sticker with a rainbow Pixelball.


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?

Kari’s eyes grow wide, but she reaches for her Pixelball and throws it, revealing Misdreavus. “Go, Misdreavus!” Kari makes a nervous gulp, knowing that Misdreavus’ moves wouldn’t affect a Normal Type like Rattata. She’d need a solution, and fast.

The trainer points his finger at Kari’s Misdreavus, “Rattata! Use quick attack!” In an instant, Kari sees the purple blur sprint at Misdreavus.

Kari winces in anticipation, but she notices that the Rattata simply goes right through her Misdreavus. “Aha! Normal Type attacks don’t affect ghosts! Maybe all is not lost…” Kari’s wince turns into a grin, and she shouts, “Misdreavus! Use growl!” Kari knew all she had to do was just stall out the Rattata, and victory would be hers…

Alright, I've edited my application to reflect that Kari is not psychic, but instead she only believes she is psychic.
