IRL PRESENTATION: Hello. My name is Alexandre, but people call me Alex for short. Ingame, I’m known as Xadrow, or even Kawaii Akuma by the odd few who know me well. I’m turning 20 in July. Unlike you might think, I’m not English, but Belgian. The reason I write in English is because I’m currently studying in the UK, and my French is too rusty for my liking. My likes have evolved ever so slightly since the last time I presented myself, but not all that much: I still play video games (way too much), and I still play music, draw and I’m continuing my Engineering degree. I have, however, developed a particularly high interest in all that is Japanese Culture, from history to entertainment… okay, entertainment mainly, but I do like their history too. MINECRAFT AND MINEFIELD HISTORY: [LINK TO MY PRESENTATION AFTER BECOMING A PEASANT: https://www.minefield.fr/forum/topic/53757-pr%C3%A9sentation-xadrow/?hl=xadrow] I’ve been playing Minecraft for almost 4 years now. I’ve often visited Minefield, and I’m one of the main helpers of the Keysington project on Nabes [https://www.minefield.fr/forum/topic/54696-accept%C3%A9-keysington/?hl=keysington]. On top of this, I've helped in Kelaire and I've been asked to help design the Kutzenbach manor. I’d like to eventually build my own little town, as well as show my skills on the server. I specialize in Asian styled builds, but I’m a rather versatile builder, and I follow instructions well. Here are some screenshots of my work on another server and in singleplayer minefield: MOTIVATIONS The main reason I’d like to become a villager (villageois) is because I really don’t like Questing, and without a job I can’t get any real form of revenue, so my pockets are emptying rapidly. Although Questing is a big thing on Minefield,I don't enjoy it, and I’d like to get a few Silver Coins to set up my projects, maybe attend a few more events and such. Although this rank would be more of prestige than of use, I'd like to get more involved in the community, and a rank up might help with this. Finally, I was peer pressured into it by quite a few friends (mainly TheGaudis). If I was accepted as a villager (villageois), I would like to be a Lumberjack (bûcheron). ROLEPLAY (note: this section is slightly longer than what is asked for, but I couldn't fit the thing in just 25 lines. Also, originally it was over 60 lines, so I did a LOT of editing) Lost chapter: Hell Fire and goo… Wh… Where am I? What are these sounds whaling in my ears, cries for help? All I can see is fire and ash in a crimson sky, as two roaring beasts clash with claws and teeth, shredding skin and limbs. The smoke burned my eyes as the gust created by the two behemoths blew towards me, corroding and burning all in its path… I was born in this world of war, bloodshed and the slaughter of thousands of Yōkai fighting for a trivial sister’s feud… The next thing I remember was waking up in a devastated and ruined city, where all had turned black from the fires during the night. The bodies of countless lives that had been lost in the conflict, burned to a crisp, lay before my eyes in a horrific display of the cruelty of the world. Suddenly, an old man, barely capable of walking, slowly made his way through the street, clearly horrified and on the brim of falling in tears at what had become of the city. As he came closer, he noticed me, and looked at me, quite intrigued by my presence, and, as I would discover later, my mere existence. The old man lifted me up, and held me up in one hand. At this point I realized that I was but the size of a mouse, and I felt sliding through his fingers, like if my body wasn't solid. I fell, but his second hand caught me before I hit the ground. “There there little guy,” the man said, with a reassuring voice. “Everything is going to be alright. Yare yare, what a mess this place is.” I could hear the tears in his voice, as he looked onto what remained of a former food cart near a shop. He sighed. And slowly moved his hand up to his shoulder for me to sit on it, then slowly started making his way towards the Sakura Forest. … My new found father’s name was Akumajin. He told me the tale of the Yōkai Sisters, who caused the bloodshed and destruction. As the years passed, my father seemed to enjoy having more and more serious talks with me, about sciences and literature. However, I noticed that in all the references on Yōkai history, in all the books and scrolls, very little to no information existed concerning my origins. It would take me another few years for me to ask: “Oto-san, what am I?” My father looked at me, deep into my eyes, telling me without any words that I was, indeed, an unusual creature, even for the Yōkai. It was a dreaded question, which my father had anticipated, but had hoped never to have to answer. “From what I've gathered over the years, I believe you are a Slime. Slimes are a rare breed for this time and age, most of them died out during the wars before the Age of Peace.” This information alone was rather sad. Though I wasn't alone, I was rare around here. I slowly felt like the weight of judgement had been dropped onto me from the heavens, and I fell into the darkest of places I had been since my birth. “Hey,” my father said. “Don't worry. I'm sure there are more of your kind out there, you just need to find them. If you feel like you're failing or lost, Don’t believe in yourself, believe in the me that believes in you, and you'll manage to find your path.” He patted me on the head, and I felt his warmth pulling me out of the darkness. I wasn't alone, and I was the son of Akumajin, the old man in the Mori Shrine. He looked towards the horizon. The Sakura trees were in blossom, spring had arrived. With a small pat on my back, he stood up, and slowly walked towards the altar. “You know what; I think I might have a mission for you.” He picked up two large scrolls, which he then gave to me. They were heavy, and were probably about a meter wide. “When the time is right, head towards the west, where you will look for Hikari and Yami, the Yōkai sisters. Give them these scrolls, and make them understand that I gave these in person. They might not like this, and you might get into trouble with them, but I hope they’ll understand… From what I have heard, they are currently still fighting in the plains of Shin-Stenderu (tr: New Stendel)… or something like that.” I looked at him, and saw hope in his eyes. From there on, it wasn't long before I took my best hakama, my bokken and the scrolls, setting off towards the west, following the request of my father, and seeking out the Sisters. My journey had just begun, yet I felt like it had already started years ago. I would later come to realize that my “childhood” years would turn out to be the best, but that, is a tale I’ll tell on another occasion... 世話をする (*take care*) Merci d’avoir eut le courage de lire jusqu’ici et merci de votre temps. Coordialement, Xadrow (A.D.)

Mon dieu mon dieu, "het is zo ver" (trad: on y est arrivé, flamand). I've known TheGaudis for quite a few years now, and every time we cross paths he seems to have new skills to show off or stories to tell. Whether it would him flaunting about his building skills or him showing off as a ruler over his projects, he always has something new and exiting to bring forward. Beneath a man with wild looks and stone cold judgment is a man with dedication and will power I have yet to achieve myself. His loyalty to the community and his friends cannot be put in doubt, and his motives are pure (at least i hope so), I would like to up vote his request for knighthood, not only because he's a friend, but also because if he doesn't deserve it, no one does. +1 old friend, and may you prosper as a knight. On a side note, don't spoil my project and finally, you'll NEVER see me in a monastery, EVER. PS: Oui, j'écris en anglais, car j'écris mieux en anglais qu'en francais, et que je peux faire ce que je veux.

Bonjour ou Bonsoir! J'aimerai partager une opinion (c'est le but du forum). Bon, déjà, je vais faire simple, pas de patés à en démotiver les gens, +1 pour le projet. Pourquoi? Parce que TheGaudis et Xaxi sont deux joueurs compétents pour le moins, mais aussi motivés et bien travailleur. Mon opinion en général sur Minecraft est que peu de gens savent comment vraiment construire de belles batisses... il faudrait bien leur apprendre! L'apprentissage ne ce fait pas en regardant des projets immenses, mais en en faisant partie. Le concepte n'est que donc le plus approprié pour la situation. Je ne suis malheureusment pas au point avec les contes et péripécies concernant le Dominion et ces terres aloués, donc je ne m'y melle pas. Simple, claire, net. Bonne chance et binne continuation Xadrow, membre de rien en particulier, président de rien du tout, conseillé de personne, porte parole de nulle que soit-meme PS: main d'oeuvre requise? Que gaudis me contacte et je vois si je peux trouver une mute ou deux dans mon emploi du temps X)

J'aimerai soutenir avec un gros +1 notre amis Dokhas pour cette candidature. C'est une personne agréable à jouer avec, généreuse, et c'est un joueur actif (je dirais même, un joueur très actif) sur le serveur.

Architecture mediocre, oui, je ne suis qu'un mediocre constructeur qui n'arrive pas à ton hauteur... Pour en rajouter, je dois avouer qu'en mon opinion, TheGaudis mérite ce rang: d'une part pour son investissement dans les travaux qu'il fait, mais aussi, c'est, je doit avouer, quelqu'un avec de grandes idées et qui, avec les ressources nécessaire, fait un travail tout aussi [barrer]magnifique[/barrer] médiocre que moi (sur une note sérieuse, il fait de bonnes choses, derrière son apparence de rustre ce cache un génie). +1

Bonjour et/ou bonsoir à tous les lecteurs de ce post. Je m'appelle Alexandre, mais on me connaît plus souvent in-game comme xadrow. J'ai 18 ans. Mes loisirs et activités au cours des journées se composent de musique, dessins et jeux vidéos, et dans pas trop longtemps, des études universitaires en Ingénierie. Néanmoins, mon gout pour Minecraft reste un des plus grands caractères me définissant actuellement. Il m'a fallu du temps pour venir vraiment jouer sur Minefield, mais plusieurs projets m'ont influencé, en particulier Shiki No Mura (ma folie pour l'architecture nippone est peu comparable), ainsi que tout simplement la grandeur du serveur, les innombrables possibilités avec les blocs uniques, et un peu (beaucoup trop) l'influence de TheGaudis. Parmi mes connaissances ce trouves aussi Glieps, Dokhas, TiiXel, xaxicouzoulou, et quelques autres joueurs travaillant sur Kalaïre. Mes envies? Elles sont moindres à vrai dire, mais j'aime bien aider je dirais, et si ce n’est pas pour designer un style plutôt steampunk, c’est pour faire le bourrin de service de construction. En ce qui concerne mes capacités de construction...
