Role applied for:Beren, son of the lord of Ladros

History:Beren was an Edain (a man), the son of Barahir and Emeldir the man-hearted. He was a man of the royal House of Beor of  Dorthonion, and the most accomplished hero and adventurer of the First Age. The battle of the Dagor Bragollach befell during his youth, bringing about the ruin of his kingdom. The young Beren lived with his father and eleven loyal followers in the highlands of Dorthonion, and the thirteen of them performed many acts of bravery, to the great frustration of Morgoth. Eventuily he left his homelands after the price on his head rose and the dark lords minions hunted him with more vigor then ever before. He crossed into Doriath, through the forests of Dungortheb, where he saw and fell in love with Luthien, princess of the Sindar. Her father, not aproveing of him sent Beren on a quest to what was expected tobe his death, to retrive a Silmaril from the Crown of Morgoth. Although thought to be an impossibal task, with the help of others he succueded, even defeating Saroun in battle. However, as they escaped from Angbad, the great wolf Cargharo, whom Morgoth had personally bred, awoke. Beren held out the Silmaril, hoping that its radiance would avert the beast, but he was mistaken. Carcharoth bit off his hand swallowed it and the Silmaril (thus Beren was called Erchamion, One-hand), and proceeded to run rampant through Doriath. Lúthien and the unconscious Beren were rescued by the Eagles of Manwe. When he presented himself to Thingol, he demonstrated to him that he had obtained, then lost the Silmaril at the cost of one of his hands; he was then given the name Camlost, Empty-handed. Beren participated in the hunting of Carcharoth, where the beast was slain and the Silmaril recovered; the quest was accomplished, but in the process Beren was mortally wounded Lúthien's love for Beren was so strong that, upon hearing of his death, she lay down and died. Her soul went to the Halls of Mandos, where she managed to charm Mandos into granting her a wish. Both she and Beren were miraculously restored to life, but both of them would live as mortals and die the death of Men, and go beyond the walls of Arda to a place unknown. Thus Beren and Lúthien lived again, and dwelt on Tol Galen in the middle of the river Adurant in Ossiriand. There they stayed apart from other mortals; Beren was involved with the events of the First Age only one further time, when he waylaid a group of dwarves who had destroyed Doriath and stolen the Nauglamir.

How would i play as this person: I would act as a tempering force To my father (jackthecreator79 plays him) and encurage logic in the aproch to war among our people, being both a warrior and a person encuraging the expansion of my fathers land.

Expairance: I have been playing minecraft for a few years now, and more recently on the LOTR mod, i played a major role in the funcutions of Tol Eressea twords the end of the Second age server, sometimes stepping in as leader when Owle needed to leave for streaches of time. I worked to make the Island populated with buildings, and attempted to keep things peaceful, a major example being when the dwarves of the red monts became quite angry with us, although I was ultmatly unsucessful, I beleave it showcases how I was dedecaited to keeping our allies uinited, in a effort to server our factions gole and keep the server fun.

What i bring to the server: I will contribuite to the Roleplaying of the server, leaving lore out of necessity for my factions developement beyond that of a band of outlaws to a small kingdom, howerver my goal is to enritch the servers enviroment, changing things to losely fallow lore, so that we arnt all just repeating a story book, well keepng the feel of Tolken's works.
