1. Character Name (this will be your name on the site and forums):* Vance Creed.
2. Class (Jedi Consular, Jedi Knight, Smuggler, or Trooper):* Trooper.
3. Please describe your knowledge of Star Wars? The more detailed the better, please: * I've been a fan of SW since I was about five years old, and I consider my knowledge about Star Wars to be extensive. I haven't read any book(Because they don't sell them in my country, and if they do, I have yet to find one), but I've read a great deal about the SW Universe in Wookieepedia. I've seen all the movies(Yes, even the Ewok ones), and I've played a lot of the SW games, including: Kotor 1 and 2, Jedi Academy, Republic Commando, Battlefront 1 and 2, and others. I also read the wookieepedia often.
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.* Guild Name (Reason for leaving if applies): Order of the Rose. The guild disbanded after several internal problems. -Game: World of Warcraft and World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade. -Name: Artrek. -Level: 70 -Server: Can't remeber exactly which one, I believe it was Moonglade, but I left to a private server shortly after joining WoW. -Class: Hunter. -Race: Night Elf.
I had other characters, but Artrek was my main. Order of the Rose was a Latin PvP-RPing Guild. I was a member since it's inception, and became a high ranking officer, serving as Lore Master, Strategist/Tactician, and part time Recruiter. I also helped coordinate a few attack on Horde Cities, most notably Undercity. I was with them for about 3 and a half years.
5. What type of role do you wish to take within the guild? How do you plan to be active? Please be specific.* OOC, I could take the role of a Lore Keeper, or more fitting, Archivist or Scholar. I can also provide help with recruiting. In-Game, I could be Strategist/Tactician, Pilot(Depending on the Space Combat mechanics), or any kind of vehicle combat for the matter(Love Vehicles); Scout, Recon or anything like that. I could also, after familiarizing with TOR mechanics, planets and leveling system, help new recruits with quests or any annoying Empire member that dare to gank them. But I'm also open to any position that I'm seen fitted for.
6. Why do you feel the Army of Light is a good fit for you?* Army of Light looks like a very mature guild, with a lot of involvement from it's members. When I look for guilds, the things I like the most are RPing and a fun enviroment and people to play with. It also has quite a number of members, meaning that it's more likely to succed once TOR comes out, and I like the structure of it's ranks. Just by looking a little bit, it looks like a great guild, and I would love to get to know it better.
7. What do you expect of the guild? Please be specific.* I expect commitment from it's members and leaders. I expect a place when there can be civil discussions without turning into drama. I expect a guild that has an orginazed RP system and that it's commited to it. But, the most important thing, I expect a guild where I can have fun.
8. Age:* 15
9. Time Zone:* GTM -4:30, Venezuela Timezone.
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.* One easy example to check I can give you is the Seibertron site, a website about Transformers. I RP there for a few months, under the name of Blackstrike, but I left due to issues IRL, and haven't returned becuase I don't feel like RPing there for a while, but due to my personal choice, the site and people there are great.
About what I would like to do in a RP, my favorite types of RPs are Recon type of missions, Black Ops, Infiltration, Search and Destroy. Things like that. When I RP, I don't have many requirements from people, after all, we RP to have fun, and everybody has different ways to RP. But, I don't I don't like at all are one or two line post or something similar, unless there is a really good reason to. Grammaticals erros don't bother me much, after all, we all make mistakes, although there is a limit.
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 have a lot of experience with PvP, and I've, as some have said, a great talent for making strategies for almost any kind of battleforce, this having honed through years of playing RTS. I also try to help whenever I can, be it helping new members level their characters, trying to solve a dispute, helping with the recruiting process, or anything needed.
Outside the game, I have to admit, my guild helping skills are few. I have no drawing talent(The drawing talent skipped my generation in the family ) and my knowledge with computers isn't really high.
12. How do you define a quality member?* A quality members must be willing to help the guild, respect the opinions of everybody, behave, create no drama, be mature and laugh once in a while.
13. How did you find the Army of Light? Did someone recruit you? If so, please let us know who.* Through the TOR forums, after searching through several guilds.
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)* Yes, I've read the Guid Policies. I will not spam, harass, use foul language nor attack any member in any form. I will show maturity, respect and common sense in my posts. I will respect everybody's opinions and respect the admins and mods descicions.
14b. Do you pledge to fulfill them, most notably to uphold the virtues of Maturity, Honor, Respect, Personal Ethics and No Drama?* Yes, I will behave with full maturity and respect, and will not create a drama.
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.* Respect, Honor, Loyalty and Maturity. Four words that are necesary to succed in Real life as a person. I will show them, respect my fellow members, show loyalty to the guild, and maturity in my post.
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'm from Venezuela, I'm 15 years old, and I'm currently in the last year of highschool. I'm very easy going, and will make jokes now and then, but when things require it, I will be serious. I'm respectful and calm, and very patience. I like reading a lot, and I've read several Science Fiction books(Sadly, not a single SW one). I'm a gamer since I was about 6, and RP since I was about 9-10. After I graduate, I'm planning to study Engineering, probly mechanics. I also enjoy walking on the beach during sunsets .
17. Tell us a little about your in-game character* -Character Name: Vance Creed -Character Physical/Mental Features: Vance likes to joke around, always with a smile on his face. He always has to have the last word in a conversation, even if he has to repeat "bye" ten times. He's corageous, and very loyal to his companions. He also loves things that go boom.
He's tall, 6'2", and weights 93 kg. He has very toned muscles, and strong arms. He has black, short hair, with brown eyes and a trimmed goatee. He lost part of his right arm, from his elbow, and now is replaced with a mechanical prosthesis. -Character Biography: I'm still working on it, but from what I have, he has around 28 years old, is from Corellia, and one of his parents was a militar, but that's about it. He's human.

Excellent application! The Recruitment Council or the Grand Master will get back to you within 48 hours!
On a personal note, I'm glad to see another pilot join the guild. I've always been an aviator in most of the games I've played and was supremely disappointed when space combat was revealed to be little more than a rail shooter for TOR. Had my fingers crossed for something closer to SWG: JTL.
Nice app, look forward to getting to know you. And I agree with Vyynn about the space combat and flying. It's rather sad that it's not going to be SWGesk. Anyway, We'll get some good RP in. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to shoot me a PM.

Yes, everytime I can, I always go for the Flying Vehicle. Some of my greatest gaming moments are of my piloting a X-Wing on Battlefront 2. Great times. I was dissapointed too when Bioware announced that the Space Combats was going to be a glorified Rail Shooter. Never played SWG, but I've heard it's Space Combat is pretty good. Battlefield 1942, Battlefront 1 and 2, Rogue Squadron, Tie Fighter, even Halo. Pilot, or always driving a vehicle of any kind.

Sure, thanks. Looking forwards to get to know you all.

Thanks for sending us an application! I also agree with Vyynn and Bren, I wish that Space combat would be more fluid and expansive rather than a rail shooter. But you can always use rp. If you have any concerns or questions please pm me, Bren, or any of the High Council members\
Best Of Luck, High Councilor Seraphin Nero

Great application, good luck. I really hope they decide to change the space system in this extra time. But it probably won't happen.

Jump to Lightspeed was pretty awesome though. What TOR has come up with as a de-evolution back to 1990's video gaming, mainly the Republic Assault games. Quite disappointing if you ask me.
