Denied Edible666's Whitelist Application - [Denied - Bliinx]
Started by edible666

Minecraft Username: Temmie teming

Are you at least 18 years old?: Yes

Have you read the rules? (Link): Yes

(Optional) How did you hear about Avalore?: soup in the comment section of a redlyne video. I had to dig for the name.

(Max. 1) Were you referred by someone? If so, please provide their in-game username: I guess soup

(Optional) Introduce yourself if you’d like, as well as any creations you want to share (e.g. art, builds, skins): I'm in college, so I can get pretty busy at certain times of the year. I am generally interested in the esoteric and Lovecraftian, and I enjoy pushing the limits of worlds and their systems, in a collaborative and non-malicious way.

In-Character

Read the following prompt:

The rhythmic lull of hoofbeats are a marching drum to the small group of pioneers and variety of folk you have found yourself amongst, packed into a wobbling wagon. The rolling plains of the Southern Reach and a clear sky stretch out all around you, the buzz of excited chatter a dull wash in your ears as your mind strays to your former life and what has led you here to new lands.

“Nervous?”

You blink, returning to the present moment. A kindly older woman sat near you is smiling warmly with a crinkle to her eyes.

“I can tell it’s your first time. Still remember mine,” she flashes a grin and leans in.

“Tell me my dear, why have you come to the Reach?”

How do you respond (in character)(250 word minimum - please make sure to include at least three references to our lore in your response, with two coming from different pages in the Compendium.  Two of the three selected should also be in-depth, avoid simply name-dropping lore terms. Tie the terms into your character's backstory. Why are they important to them?)

Ali leans forward, smile plastered and eye glinting, and speaks in a tone not dissimilar to the groans of the wagon. "You, you, must misunderstand me. Nerves are for the distracted, the doubtful, and the only doubt in my mind is my faith in power, the rest of doubt burns.
Ali leans into his stone staff, Holden. His primary possession and friend, aside from his water skin, and the robes that between his chest and the rest of the world. He mouthes for assistance to Holden, hoping for council, as his dear friend has always given him. "Tell her everything, for community starts with trust." No one else hears him, but it is not the fault of anything, simply they have not yet been taught to listen. Ali nods, and continues to the world wizened lady. "Yes, yes I tell you my story, then I tell you mine. Trade of mind is to build and mix anew." 

"My purpose is entirely to hope to harness the great change, to create ultimate hearth, for I am hope to undo with corruption, for how demeaning rule of force and hard hand has kept to be. This disappearance of the old Aedall, their useless greed and disconnection is the snowmelt for path of new structure. I have experienced many cruelties, at the hands of my own people, the Stonerunners. The only sport that really defines them is their sport of disconnection, and I am, unwelcome for my criticisms of their structures. Curse this paramour, they said, and blood was spilt at sacred places. As I said, I am no longer welcome. My temporary stay at the Valkian realm was worse still, for they have ample connection, but yet not central and yet no promise to the people of the very prosperity many are made to pick from earth and soil." Ali readjusts his waning smile, to be as bright as it ever was, and reaches out an eager hand. "Will you join me, for my goal, to create something new, among this old, fertile soil?"

Usage of AI to generate, modify or translate the writing on your application will result in denial of your whitelist. There will be no chance to re-apply afterwards.

Character Name:  Alistance "ali" Ogiva

Character Race: Greatling

Character Age: 24

 Brief Physical Description: 8'0", Dark-skinned, bald with a large black tattooed stripe vertically spanning his entire body, wears grey robes, a large stone staff, and an bright charismatic smile. 

Image of Skin and Figura Model: unofficial, but vague idea. I will create a similar skin once learning how to use your skin mod.

Hello! Apologies for the delay.

While a creative concept, Ali's skin depicts a priest's garb, including a vest with two crosses. The purpose of a skin in whitelisting is to show that you can create or obtain a skin compliant with the server's lore. Whether this was ripped from somewhere online or made by hand, I can't allow a whitelist with a skin depicting real-world religious iconography.

Additionally, "Temmie teming" with or without the space isn't an existing Minecraft username. I can see on NameMC that "Edible666" is, alongside being your forum username. I'm unsure why it wasn't written in the correct field.

I'm going to reject this application for the time being. A preacher is a valid concept and the mentions of the Stonerunners in the reply section are good efforts, but whether this is simply low effort or trying to 'push' the server's lore I'd ask you re-apply in future with a different concept or an updated skin if you're still interested in whitelisting. A denial like this carries no penalties in future should you wish to re-apply!
