Grim Application for Zynthial


How did you hear about The Grim?
-I'm looking for an RP centered guild, and after a little bit of research and talking to a few members, I found the Grim.

What experience do you have with internet forums? Do you check them frequently or infrequently?
-I have fairly decent experience, I suppose. I certainly know how to navigate them. As for how frequently do I check them? Not very often, to be honest.

What sort of role-playing experience do you have? Would you consider yourself a beginner or Gary Gygax?
-Well, I would say I'm closer to Gary Gygax and a beginner. I've rolled the dice more than enough times. I'm well versed in roleplaying and character development. I'm very much interested in contributing to any roleplay that The Grim has going!

The Grim are considered a Lawful Evil guild. Do you have any experience playing a character of this alignment or a character archetype that believes in structure with evil intent?
-I'm not sure I've ever roleplayed a Lawful Evil character. I have, however, roleplayed a Lawful character and an Evil character. Given that my character was once a Paladin before his fall, Lawful Evil works out great.

Have you been part of any other guilds in World of Warcraft? If so, who were they and what server do or did they reside on? Let us know of your experience with them and what made you decide to either leave or continue to stay.
-Oh wow, what a loaded question. I've been playing on WoW (and Twisting Nether) since vanilla, so there's quite a few guilds in there. I suppose in my "glory days" I raided with Echelon. I'm just coming back from quite the hiatus from WoW, so I haven't been guilded in a while.

Are you applying on an alt (non-main) character? If so, what are you looking for here that you are not getting from your main character? If you are feeling honest or adventurous, please let us know who your main is.
-Main Horde

What are your expectations for your character after joining The Grim. What aspect of the game, if any, do you wish to focus on?
-My expectations are, first and foremost, mostly social. I'm looking for a group of great people/players to just hang out and roleplay with. I also wouldn't be against raiding here and there, but to be honest my days of raiding from 8pm to 3am are long gone.

What is your PvE (player-versus-environment) experience in World of Warcraft? What classes and roles do you enjoy the most in a raid environment? Do you have any PvE experience from other MMO games?
-I raided pretty hardcore up until the end of WotLK. For Cataclysm and MoP, I have been a much more laid back player. I really enjoy tanking, healing, and dpsing. This character (Death Knight) only allows me two of those avenues, and I might level up my Priest for healing in the future.

What is your PvP (player-versus-player) experience in World of Warcraft? What classes and roles do you enjoy the most in a PvP environment? Do you have any PvP experience in other MMO games?
-I've done quite a few arenas on this character. I'm by no means a master PvPer, but I do like to PvP just as much as the next guy. If I could find a compatible class combo, I could definitely see myself getting back into it. I do have to say, though, my true PvP heart lies in world PvP. Probably the roleplayer in me, but there's nothing better than slaying an Alliance out in the wild!

Did you read and understand our guidelines on character names, listed at the beginning of this application? (Please note, if your name does not fall within our guidelines and you do not want to do a name change, you are more than welcome to apply under a different character.)
-Sure did.

How is your computer performance when playing World of Warcraft? What is your FPS/load times during heavy graphical or high population times? Is your internet connection stable?
-All good.

Provide an armory link to your character.
-http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/t ... ial/simple

Do you have anything further to add?
-I look forward to hearing from you guys. Thanks so much for your consideration of my application.

I remember Echelon. I knew they were a raid guild. I never associated them with RP. :)

When are you usually online? So I can hop on for an interview if Aureliya doesn't get to you first.

[Zynthial]

Oh no, Echelon was definitely not an RP guild. And I'm usually on around 3-6 PM est during the week and the late hours of the night on Friday and Saturday.

[Syreenna]

I can't be on that time during the week. If Aureliya doesn't get you before Friday, look for me Friday evening.

[Aureilya]

Sorry, that's the middle of my work day!

[Syreenna]

Friday is Valentine's Day! If I don't get online Friday, let me know what time Saturday evening you'll be around.

[Syreenna]

Admitted.
