1. Character Name (this will be your name on the site and forums): Arterius
2. Class (Jedi Consular, Jedi Knight, Smuggler, or Trooper): Jedi Knight
3. Please describe your knowledge of Star Wars? The more detailed the better, please: I've been with the Star Wars universe since early childhood. I've watched, read and played countless entires in the series extending to the outer reaches of the EU. There are few people that can best me in their knowledge of lore and accurate roleplay.
4.
Please tell us about your other guild/MMO experiences. If there is more
than one guild/experience, please include all of them. If you left your
last guild, please tell us why you decided to leave. If you have used
more than one name, please list them all: I've been part of many role-playing guilds and clans over the past few
years from Diablo 2 to Aion. I enjoy the extra sense of immersion I can
achieve when the people I play the game with are as knowledgeable and
active in the roleplaying as I am. I am experienced as a writer from many years of roleplay and draw my
inspiration from movies and games primarily. I've looked forward to the
release of SW:TOR since I first heard about it a few years back while
playing SWG. I've left a few smaller previous guilds due to either internal conflict among members, conflict of interest when it came to command and
leadership.
5. What type of role do you wish to take within the guild? How do you plan to be active? Please be specific: My experience as a moderator on countless MMO and FPS servers gives me the experience to be an active member or a respectable administrator when need be. This, coupled with my lifestyle will be beneficial to my participation and the further success of the guild. When I'm not playing sports or partying I tend to spend my time playing
an MMO or FPS to pass the time. Once SW:TOR releases, I will be dedicated to this game for a very long time.
6. Why do you feel the Army of Light is a good fit for you? Where do I begin? Your standard of organization are excellent, you have
active members that know their content and are very motivated towards
the well-being and success of your guild. Being a relatively new
guild, I hope to contribute my moderation experience as well as my skill
as a writer and actor to further your guild in the SW:TOR universe.
7. What do you expect of the guild? Please be specific: An active community of players that are not only helpful to new players but can have the maturity to appeal to older ones as well. The most important part of a guild (and the most important factor that will allow it to prosper) are admins and moderators that do their jobs well. There is nothing worse than a guild with griefers and trolls running about.
8. Age: 18
9. Time Zone: Eastern Standard
10.Role-Play
experience/expectations. Can you give us some examples of Role-Playing
you have participated in before. When it comes to expectations, give
us an example of what would be fun to participate in, what you are
looking for, etc: I would love to refer you to a thread I run from time to time on the
SW:TOR forum. I hope this kind of creativity is to your liking!

11. How can you benefit and help the guild? Please include any skills or talents you have that you would
enjoy doing within the guild. How have you helped your previous guild(s), if you have previous experience? I host servers, moderate, create websites among a slew of other things. Most of this I already outlined in the "Guild" section above!
12. How do you define a quality member? Active, calm, devoted, can have a good time and work well with others, even if their opinions or beliefs differ.
13. How did you find the Army of Light? Did someone recruit you? If so, please let us know who. I was contacted by JainaSorak on the SW:TOR forum after posting in the LFG section.
14a.Have
you visited our website and chat room, and familiarized yourself with
the, Charter, Mission Statement, and Rules of Conduct? (You must answer
in the affirmative and please prove that you have): I wouldn't be applying if I hadn't already understood your regulations and conducts. I, Arterius, strongly agree with and acknowledge all content posted on The Army Of Light's forums, website and wikipedia page.
14b. Do you
pledge to fulfill them, most notably to uphold the virtues of Maturity,
Honor, Respect, Personal Ethics and No Drama?: I do.
15. Would you say
that you embody the qualities of Respect, Honor, Loyalty, and Maturity?
What are your definitions of these four words? Please don’t just answer
yes or no, let us know why you think you possess these qualities: I know how it feels to be disrespected, dishonored, deserted and in an immature community. This is a feeling I never wish upon anyone and will strive to eliminate in diplomatic fasion whenever possible. Experience is the best moderation and I hope to make this guild a place everyone can enjoy.
16.
In more than 30 but less than 100 words, please describe your personal
character and the type of person you are (We wish to get a good feel of
the type of person that will be becoming a part
of our guild family): I am very active in my University however I drive from rather far away.
When I'm not playing sports or partying I tend to spend my time playing
an MMO or FPS to pass the time. I do MMA, parkour, football and play the
guitar among other things.

Biography: Saren
Arterius, born 3,632 BBY, is one of the youngest and brightest Jedi to
have succeeded in his Jedi training in many years, a feat even the Jedi
Council found impressive. For 2 years, he has been an instrument of the
Council's will, a zealous defender of galactic stability in the Outer
Rim.
Official records of his induction to the Jedi are sealed, but it is
known that Saren followed Mandalorian tradition and was trained to be a
warrior until the age of 8 on the planet Mandalore. At age 9 he then started
exhibiting signs of Force sensitivity and was soon after found by the
Jedi and taken to Tython to begin his training. In 3651 BBY he was
promoted to Jedi Knight after only 10 years in the Order.
He became one of the first Mandalorians ever accepted into the Jedi
Order. Intelligent, cunning and capable, Saren quickly developed a
reputation for peaceful resolution and diplomacy. Although there were a
number of unsettling rumors concerning the effectiveness of his methods,
there was no denying his results.
Saren has a high regard for life. He does not see killing as a priority
unless the Jedi Council deems it necessary, or if there is information
to be gathered for the greater good. Despite his loyality to the Council
and the Republic, he is known to often make decisions he believes are
righteous even if they are against the Council's will. This has earned
him a certain notoriety among his peers.
