Application; Redwatch

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
Drew.


WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
Originally the North East but currently near Nottingham, UK.


HOW OLD ARE YOU?
29


WHAT ATTRACTED YOU TO THIS GUILD?
I trawled the swtor forums for rp clans and ended up here being very impressed with the guild faq. Well thought out, well written and european to boot!


DO YOU HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE IN ROLEPLAYING?
The old action-rpgs on SNES and MegaDrive were my gateway drug back in the early 90s and lead to table-top White Wolf & D&D sessions. Consider myself quite the pro minifig painter.


WHAT (IF ANY) MMORPG'S HAVE YOU PLAYED IN THE PAST?
Tried a lot of trial periods but stuck with EQII the longest. EVE really appealed but found it a closed community.


WOULD YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF AN ACTIVE PLAYER?
Yes indeed. I loved kotor and for a grown man I'm embarrassingly excited about tor so I'm sure all else will take a back seat upon release.


WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU COULD OFFER THE GUILD?
Solid, consistent, fun and thoroughly believable IC rp. Not another american kid you have to put up with OOC (sorry to any yanks on the forum - my pet peeve!). A friendly guy behind the screen and back up for your character in-game.


WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE THE GUILD TO OFFER YOU?
Same in return, hopefully.


DO YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION OR IDEAS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE?
Waiting for Blizzard to flesh out the info but a hazy idea of a smuggler come part time bounty hunter has always appealed. Something that offers a lot of invitations for contact with other players and keeps character progression open. I haven't a preference for race, so open to suggestions from the guild to further it's rag-tag flavour. But a neutral character. It's all about balance in the universe, right?

Thanks for the application mate!

All looking good from what I can see! I'll review it again tomorrow cause it's stupid o'clock at the minute. Is it ok if I let you know then?

Oh and in the meantime, check the site rules. I have to say that to everyone I know, but rules are rules! Also, feel free to post anywhere you like.



p.s.
BTW what minatures did you used to paint?

Cheers Sureshot.

I paint all sorts. Started off in my tender pre-teens on Warhammer 40K but these days will splodge on anything. So to speak. Reaper fantasy minis (Werner Klocke sculpts) are great in detail and fun to do and am I the single most dullest person..? No. I'm cool. I'm cool. You will see.

Hehehe! I used to spend ages painting all that was Citadel when I was a kid! Ah the glorious days of Games Workshop.

I used to own a Space Marine (Mark 6 Army), and I made a start on a Lizardman one for WFB but got bored of the hobby by that time. My number one fave game was Blood Bowl though. I used to have a rock hard Orc team that was fairly successful in the leagues that they used to run.

WOOH! I play 40k, but I suppose you don't anymore. Anyway, great application - hope you get in okay!

Thanks Harlequin. Yeah, 40K was way back when. Eldar were my faves (...Elves? In space? Space Elves??) How distubing was the idea behind the Harlequin Kiss? No name-pun intended.

Marneus Calgar's Boys in Blue were the greatest.

Just a note- "Redwatch" is now called "Harewood" on the forum.

This confused me momentarily. I'm easily befuddled.

Me too, I actually thought we were getting a new Redwatch now that the old one changed his name. But reading these posts again - ah! They take me back!
