The application submitted by Dewine79 is as follows:
Quote: | Name : Dewine
Game : Lord of the Rings Online
Server : Landroval
Level : 8
Gender : Male
Race : Race of Man
Class : Warden
Have you read & do you agree with LMB charter?:
Yes
Do you understand that Kin chat channel is for LOTRO and Tolkien related chat only?:
Yes
Use this area to share why you want to join LMB.:
I have played LOTRO off and on for a few years now, never really getting very far. I have seen many LMB members around and have had conversations with some over this time - even being recruited by the one I finally followed up with(Aerelwen - about 3 months later). I like that you hold the game dear to you and genuinely want to make the community strong, not just your kinship. Everyone that I have met just seems to really enjoy being around and having good conversation. That's stuff that I enjoy.
Player info:
Age Range:
Old Fogey
Tell us about any MMO or RP experience you may have: :
Way more than I care to talk about with most people. I have genuinely played most every MMORPG to have ever existed. It started with Neverwinter Nights on AOL back in the mid-90's(maybe '97 or so?) but it really kicked off when I discovered Everquest in '99. The vast world and community is something I embraced and was blown away by. I played that for a handful of years before moving on and not really playing anything for a few years due to no computer. I'm not sure what the next game was that I picked it up but if you name it, I've probably played it - from WoW to Black Desert Online to lesser known games such as Project Gorgon and Fallen Earth. I just enjoy the MMO experience.
As far as RP experience, I can't say I have a large amount mostly because it's tough to find true roleplaying communities in these games. I did play D&D in high school with friends and I also took part in something called E-Wrestling for many years back in the 90's and early 2000's where you create a wrestler and roleplay them, basically being judged on the quality of your roleplays and that is a large factor in determining the results of your matches.
Please tell us what time zone you are in. (i.e. EST): :
EST
Character information:
Tell us about your character: :
Dewine is a character of great conviction. He can be ill-tempered at times but that comes from the frustrations of wanting to protect everyone and everything at all times in the face of the impossibility of that being a reality. He's a bit of a loner type when adventuring because he believes that close relationships can only lead to emotions and heartache. He welcomes friendships but prefers them around a campfire or at a bar telling stories, rather than drawing blades together. He has been known to adventure with others but only those that he really trusts will come out of everything okay.
Please tell us of any previous/current kinships you have character(s) in LOTRO. :
The Alliance
LMB experience:
Were you referred by a current member? Who?: :
Aerelwen
Have you ever been to LMB hosted event? If yes, what were your impressions? If no, are you planning on it in the next week? (Highly recommended!):
I have seen you play music in Bree before. I really enjoyed listening to it. It was a nice break from questing. Other than that, I can't recall seeing anything.
Gameplay preferences:
What activities do you enjoy most in LOTRO? :
Honestly, adventuring while taking in the scenery. Beautiful game.
Kinship expectations:
What are your expectations from LMB as a member? :
To build friendships and help out when and where I can. Time constraints probably prevent me from being involved as heavily as others but I am always glad to lend a hand when possible. Mostly I'm here for the community aspect.
What do you think your strongest contribution to LMB would be? :
To be a strong Kin member, someone that hopefully makes people laugh here and there, and someone who people know they can depend on whether it's for advice or help in the game.
Tolkien:
Have you read the books or seen the movies? What are your favorite scenes or images? :
I read The Hobbit in high school(a long time ago) and have seen all of the movies. I can't recall the book too much but my favorite scenes usually involved Legolas and his trusty bow. I'm not sure how that lines up with the books but I think the movies handled the character very well.
Misc:
Is there anything else not covered in this application that you'd like to share with us? :
Nothing much I can think of. I'm a lifetime gamer and a lover of fantasy books/movies/shows. The extensive lore falls in line with what I look for when playing games and this Kinship is the kind of family-oriented Kin that I always want to be a part of.
