Methius Cursni's / Holymeth's application

Age: 16

Hobbies: Computer games, being outside, reading, history, and making jokes.

Previous/current RPG games played: Fallout 2, Wizardry 8, and Runescape (all previous)

Description of yourself: I am holymeth; previous king of Etruia. I am an ambitious person, in both RL and games. In my previous and numerous strategy games, I have shown a weakness in my armies, yet my economics are good. I am not of the sword, but rather of the hammer which creates such beauty. I am in love with the Medieval TW and Cossacks series; both strategies, with Cossacks being a real-time strategy. I love reading books, with alternate history books as my preference. I’m an eccentric and very loyal member of any organization, such as Etruia and my guild in Runescape. I am an outspoken man, for I believe that one should speak what they think, else they are a lie.

Tell us what you will bring to our Guild and why you would like to join Bràthair Prasgan:

I wish to be a craftsman in Bràthair Prasgan, I wish to be productive in my skill, so I will most likely be a: Jack of all trades; a master of none. I hope to be working most of my time, for I truly enjoy that. I will use my time to benefit the guild to the fullest of my abilities. I do not see Romans as evil, for though there are some, I think it is just a small percentage, but when it gets to the matters of the Empire, I firmly hold my ground against them. I am a very friendly, talkative person, who will listen to what others have to say, and if possible advise them on things in which they need help on.

Now, I have seen many applications, yet none say what their negative sides are, though, I shall be the first. I am not fit for a political career for I get a temper quicker then most, dangerous for a politician or representatives. I also am not too bright in the ways of this world, often asking for the meaning of words greater then 8 letters ... or Latin words. I rarely use the sword or any other weapon against a player controlled character, though if threatened such as in battle, my body shall stay there unless called to retreat and all members have cleared away.

I live in North Carolina, US and also have radical ideas such as the Confederacy and atheistic.... though I have never used such ideas in my gaming experience.

Though I may not be too knowledgeable on a certain topic, I will be very studious and learn what I can, for I am eager for knowledge. I have also been researching Roman techniques on farming, sewing, brewing, and such to help improve my performance in Roma-Victor.

I now let you; the council decide on your verdict, for It is I who are joinig you.

A very nice Application.

Tell me have you read any of Harry Turtledove's works?

I have I'm in the middle of reading the first in gis American Empire series. A very good read. :D

Oh yes! I have read much of Harry Turtledove! Ive read the WWII serie ... very interesting ... the one with the alians coming during WWII.

I've also read the one with Shakeshpeare ... in like the English Civil war or the invasion by spain ... either or, i get'm confused (the events)

Harry Turtledove is a great author of that.

I also read Robert Adams books .... around 180 pgs each, usually paper back ... They are good on alternate history ... but it has alot of post-nuclear in it too.

I Xenophon, the current Co-leader of this guild, would like to ask you some questions Holymeth.

1. Why did you step down from power in the guild Eturia?

2. Why did you choose our guild over another, say, a roman or Tuatha/Nervii?

3. Why did you not try and start up a new guild?

4. You say you are "an ambitious person", being a craftsman harldy seems ambitious; do you have plans to become more?

That is all the questions I have, Xeno.

Just so you guys know, I kind of asked him to apply here. :)

:huh: You did Hondy? ;) Sure, sure...

1. Well I stepped down from Etruia and the throne because the guild is really adam, therefore it is corrupt and I could never really change it. I am also bad at being a leader of people, my abilities suffer greatly in the political feild. Adam is a hard person to handle, he is very manipulative and decieptive ..... I couldnt take all the lies and tuants from him, he is also very pro-roman ... I highly oppose the Roman Empire.

2. I choose Bràthair Prasgan over the other guilds mainly becuase I knew quite a few members and this guilds location. I didnt choose any Roman guilds becuase am oppose them so much. I didnt want to join any celtic tribes because they would've been in Brittania, not where I'd like to be .... and Tuatha isn't at frinedliest attitiudes with me.... I'm banned from thier forums till November....for a confrontation with CelticFalcon.

3. I'm not a good leader, we would've been lost, I couldn't bear to see followers futilly trying to keep a guild alive, like I had with Etruia ..... also, there is safety in numbers , and your guild both has numbers and loyal members.

4. You surprise me Xeno, you beig an Anti-war type person ..... Ambition does not live in the sword but rather in the heart, think of all the great works of art and buildings which only gods could have made ... yet mere people created. They had ambition too, their ambiton was not for gold, glory, or fame but rather for beauty. I am ambitous because I want to help the guild and others n thier needs and wants. I proudly weild the plow or the awl over the sword. For an army isnt just armor and swords.

Quite the Application Meth, Good Luck!

I forgot to tell you why I didnt stay in Etruia or make new guild ...At least I didnt go thorough ..... Etruia is a very bad, evil, corrupt place. There is few good in there and probally was onlyu a little bit of good there the whole time. I dont want anyhing of Etruia to survie, in a sense I wish to burn it anfd incenerate it to make sure all the corruption and eviuil is destroyed. I hate to even think I was in it. I was afriad that If i created new guild a few of the bad stuff would burden it down greatly ...... That is why I have decided not to bring any along, for I am in a sense cleanseing myself of the corruption which I may have picked up..... though I personally dont think I had much.

:preaching: .... cleanse thy spirit .... :preaching: :innocent:

I am not anti-war far from in fact. I believe war in defence or proctection against those that seek to harm the innocent. Such as world war II (though not so much world war I). Ambition is a word to describe one person who wants to better himself in a certain field (s). I figured since you were a leader you meant you want to better your self into a place of power.

Thank you for your timely answers, you shall soon see if you make it into the guild.

The guild has spoken. We've had a poll on whether you should become a member of Brathair Prasgan or not, and I'm happy to say that no one voted against you. Methius Cursni, welcom to Brathair Prasgan.

Glad to see you made it, Meth. I'm sure you'll fit right in ;)
