Application by Willowsmudge – as it might have been 5 years ago
How long have you been playing WoW and what do you like about the game?
I have been playing the game for about 2 weeks. I like the way my gnome bobs up and down when she is supposed to be standing still. I like the yellow exclamation marks.
Full in-game character name:
Willowsmudge
Brief description of your main character and his/her background (if you have one):
Willowsmudge has the misfortune to be related to those who destroyed Gnomeregan and was brought up in Ironforge by her gnome relatives. She was not popular because of her family background and she is learning to develop her dark side. I think she might enjoy the spells she can cast and the pain she can inflict.
Level, class, race, talent specialisations and professions:
Level 13, gnome warlock. Has a little imp. Can cook bread but not much else. Specialises in causing havoc (oops sorry, isn’t that what you meant?). Proper specialisations are in alchemy and herbalism.
Other characters:
None
Roleplaying experience
Limited to talking to one or two other people I meet in the forest. They seem to be dwarves. I like dwarves. oops not relevant
PvE experience:
None
Other experiences.
I met a very nice male gnome warlock in a quarry, who taught me lots of things, including how to smile (emotes) and how to sit on a chair without having to jump and how to get drunk. Mm, perhaps he wasn’t such a reputable fellow after all. His name was Vincit and I think he is a bit of a rascal.
Guild activity: (what guilds have you been in and why did you leave?)
Never been in a guild before so don’t know what to expect.
Reason for joining the Dark Light – what are you looking for in a guild?
Vincit asked me. I think as it is a new guild I may be invited without question (hopefully)
What have you found difficult in the game – and what are you aiming for?
Using my spells. I aim to go on a ship.
Anyone within The Dark Light who might vouch for you?
Vincit (otherwise why did he keep buying me drinks and interview me for an hour?)
If you are under 18, what would make us believe you have a mature attitude?
Nothing in Azeroth could persuade you I have a mature attitude (oops that might not help my application). Anyway, I am over 18 so of course I have a mature attitude
How do you see your role in a raid group?
What’s a raid?
Any questions?
What opportunities are there for promotion? Is there any racism towards gnomes?
And finally, please remember, in any application form (be it for WoW, university or a job) you want to present yourself as best you can, first impressions make a huge impact.
Did I succeed?
