Character Name:Wither
Character Race:Human
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:'Watch the flowers wither away as fall fades and the winter sets in.' Under a canopy of stars the young, pale human took her first gasps of living breath. It was the end of fall, the flowers were fading away, withering, the first snow threatening to settle itself upon the earth soon. Fragile as a flower, pale as the moon, she was born with red eyes instead of the normal eye color blue. Her screams and cries were constant, as constant as the sun, only to be calmed by the moon and silence of the night. Her mother, bitter at having lost her husband from a sickness before Wither was born, was unable to withstand the pressure of having a child who was constantly crying. Her mother would tie her up and bind her mouth closed to muffle the cries. Wither soon, with no ability to stretch her legs, withered as a flower would without the sun. Skin and bones, she no longer had the energy to cry or scream. Her mother finally decided to untie her, but Wither lacked enough muscle to stand or even to barely move by herself. Her mother, happy that her child no longer screamed, fed Wither little, in order to prevent her from having the strength to cry anymore. Desperate and starving for nourishment, Wither would sneak an extra piece of food here and there after meals, and within a few months the 9 year old child was soon able to stand, if only for a few moments by herself. At night, when her mother was asleep, Wither would step onto the cold floor of the small hut, and practice walking from one end to the other, back and forth, fascinated by the noises of the world outside. The hut lacked windows, and Wither had never seen the outside, besides the door. Several nights of walking back and forth, and she decided she would sooner brave the outside world, then endure her mother anymore. Hesitantly grabbing the door handle, she pulled it open, the full moon lighting her path as she slowly walked away from the small hut. She saw her first cow, grazing lazily in a small pasture, it gave a friendly "moo" when it saw her and walked toward the end of the fence. Terrified of the cow, she tried her best to get away as quickly as possible. The uneven ground and still weak muscles in her legs led her to fall, face first onto the dirt path. Hearing footsteps, she looked up and saw "Hawkes the Pale" ((Icelifreakx)) looking at her, as if confused. Terrified that she had stumbled across someone, she attempted to speak but could only manage an 'ah' as she tried to get up. The man helped her up, and she thanked him, her voice raw and uneven from lack of use.
Three years later, Wither still followed him, the vast deserts, the calm and peaceful snowy mountains, the serene woodlands, everything fascinated her. After having gotten her first wooden sword, she knew there was no tool that she would rather use, learning how to hunt and kill monsters from "Hawkes the Pale", she soon developed into a fairly good sword wielder, hunting down the monsters along side her adoptive 'father'. Her first kill had been an accident, thrilled with having received a sword, she went skipping off, full of joy. Not watching the woods around her, she walked right in front of a zombie, who turned and started to walk toward her. "no....nononono" She said, terrified. Swinging her sword wildly she started to panic, realizing her sword was now lodged into a tree, she pulled on it with all of her might to free it. She calmed herself, "I have to stay calm!" she aimed her next swing, her first hit was weak, and untimed. The zombie continued to walk toward her, and she swung again, and again, and again, till she realized she was covered in its blood and it was dead. She turned around upon hearing footsteps, "Hawkes the Pale" stood behind her and she said rather feebly "I was so scared! Yet....yet I killed it....I kill my first monster." She then smiled, so proud of herself, and decided from that day, she wanted to be a monster hunter. Throughout time, there have been those who have wanted to shed blood, and those who need to shed blood. Wither could be a content middle, craving to shed blood, and needing to shed it, as if it were like water, protecting the flower from wilting away and dying. The next few days were spent by Wither charging into battle with every monster she saw, happy to hunt them down for the words of encouragement and pats on the head from her father. She was saddened when a spider led to her wooden sword breaking, taking that to be an omen. She vowed to herself "I shall never hunt spiders again." and after getting a new sword, has never as of yet killed a spider. Instead, Wither enjoys watching the spiders from far away, secretly wondering why they are so feared.
What are your characters ambitions?:Wither wishes nothing more then to follow in her father's footsteps.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character?Her personality is not fully developed yet, due to her still being a child, so it will finish developing in roleplay, depending on how the world around her is, I hope that is acceptable. Open-Response-Questions Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short. Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?I walk into the city, bored and unimpressed, wishing I could go back out into the woodlands already. A dwarf stops me as I begin to walk past, looking at them I do my best to be polite and smile. "Hello, I am Wither...is there a reason you stopped me?" He looks at me like I am clueless, then begins to speak about the things he has for sale. I listen, occasionally nodding and then say "I'm sorry...I do hate to be rude but I must leave, I have someone expecting me. I'll be back soon, I promise!" Then I hurry down the street, worried that my friend has already left. You’re in the Cloud Sanctuary late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. The only present monk is fast asleep, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?As I rest on the grass, counting the stars one by one, a noise reaches my ears, arguing of some sort. I push myself up off the grass, dusting myself off and walk over to the noise. "H-hello? Why are you shouting at each other?" I look at them both, they seem to ignore me as they get in each others faces, still bickering. I tilt my head, slightly worried and confused as to what to do. The Orc raises his fist to strike the dwarf and I push the dwarf out of the orc's reach. "Violence is never the answer!" I say meekly, trying to sound brave. The dwarf takes the moment to leave, and the Orc follows after him, still yelling. I lower my head in defeat and go back to counting the stars. ]Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: I smile as and old man walks past "Good morning! Where are you off to?" I ask, as he ignores me, as he passes me his stick breaks. "Are you okay?!" I ask, worried that he is injured, he sits where he fell and I go to find a new stick for him. When I return he is still there, gathering his minas. I offer him the stick and he mutters a "Thank you" I nod and skip down the road, happy to be helpful.
In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is: role-playing, blatantly is the act of taking on an alter-ego or different personality, or pertaining to a made-up personality. It is responding to a situation using a different role.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is:I'm pretty sure meta-gaming is a very D&D thing to do. The best way I could explain it is sort of thinking outside the box using knowledge combined from in game and out of game information.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:( think I got it right this time), power emoting is typing actions that over exaggerate your abilities that give you an unfair advantage. What is generally accepted in role-playing is emoting that can add more detail into situations for example. *rolls eyes*
In-Character Details
Character Name:Aleulla Galaid
Character Race:Elven, High Elf
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:
Aluella Gallaid’s parents were grateful for their only son’s healthy upbringing. Aluella is the heir of Manius Gallaid an old carpenter who refined elegant designs of structures in elven society. Manius has had a big impact on Aluella's passion for technique and detail as Aluella became his apprentice. However Aluella's mother Asweir ignited his passion for knowledge, as she read him stories of magic and enchantment as a child. His favourite story was of Iblees and the elf father Malin.
He enjoys detailing clothing, armour and weapons. The elegant elven style is the reason he takes pride in being a high elf.
Aluella is still young (in retrospect to other elves) however this does not impact on his mature attitude, he always respects his elders to the utmost. Though Aluella believes that he should get the same respect that he gives. His overall demeanour is usually kind and considerate.
Just like many other Mali'Aheral he has very strong beliefs in politics and elven lore. His weaknesses are that he can be controlling and can sometimes be very lazy, occasionally locking himself away for days at a time, reading and gaining knowledge.
He has short light brown/dark blond hair, which is kept well groomed. He favours the elven green and gold however he dislikes the robes that some elves wear due to comfort issues. He can be discerned by his height and passive nature.
Aluella is not an experienced fighter. He has never seen a fight in his life and does not like to battle often. His preferred solution would be to outwit the opponent, although he likes to think that he could hold his own in any fight. This overindulgence in self confidence can sometimes get him into trouble.
What are your characters ambitions?: Aluella's main goal is to gain more knowledge. Fascination by the ancient’s banishment of Iblees his ultimate dream is to learn magic used by ancients.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? Try to pass by without looking at him, keep to myself. Why would I want to interact with him? what important things would he have to say? If he tries to talk to me though, I'll have to be polite, don't want him to think I'm a savage.
Dwarf: BEST SWORDS IN THE CITY, CANT GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT !
Aluella: Dwarf, you are a long way from Kal’Karik. you boast the best swords. May I view them?
Dwarf: take a look.
Aluella: Dwarf, these swords are perfect, if you want to slice cheese. They are made of cheap metal, will bend as soon as you strike.
Dwarf: I made these myself, how dare you!
Aluella: I meant not to offend Dwarf.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?I don't like violence. There are very few situations where fighting would be acceptable, this definitely isn't one of them. A dwarf in trouble. I don't see why i should help, however it is an orc. I hate orcs. The only plausible option is to talk the orc into its idiotic sense. As long as I keep it talking it will probably forget about what it was angry about. If it tries anything I might have to fight. Im not very good at hand to hand. Hopefully I have a knife stashed in my shoe.....

An old man, he might be wise. Wiser than me? no, probably not. but wise nonetheless.Maybe test his knowledge later. I will have to help him up. Perhaps if he is smart I could play audience to him. Help the man up and take him to where he needs to be, he might have some knowledge to share.

In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is: To play as a fictional character that you made up in a setting with other roleplayers.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is: The act of knowing something that your RP character shouldn't know such as someones name.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is: When someone emotes something that is unfair for example "Rick takes out Sword and Kills Bob" this is unfair since this gives Bob no chance. Now if Rick says "Rick takes out Sword and attempts to stab Bob" then this is not power-emoting and is perfectly fine.

Character Name: WoodThorn
Character Race: Elf
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: WoodThorn is a 120 Year old Wood Elf with pitch black dark hair and blue twinkling eyes. He is a archer by blood but a blacksmith at heart. He was born in the ancient sacred forests of he elves
where his mother was sacrificed to save his life. He had been born with his eyes closed and not crying. His mother and father both knew that one of them had to give their soul to him
if he is to survive. So his caring mother pleded to the gods and took her own life with a sharp wooden knife. But as soon as she died WoodThorn opened his eyes and started crying.
Since he was raised without a mother WoodThorn was tougher and more serious then most Elves. His father was strict and taught him how to be the best archer and told him
that to become sucessfull in life he had to aim high to the sky. The only thing his father did not want him to do was to work with metal as a blacksmith. It was WoodThorn's passion
to work metal into creations of armor and swords and to replenish them to a brand new state. But his father forbid him from working with metal. His father only believed in using wood as
the only true material for weapons. Darkthorn would sneak out of his treehouse and go to his own little hut he built in the forest. Where he practiced his skills
in metal work. When it became his time to become a true warrior his father gave him his bow and said "Son I always have loved you even though it might seem
as I have neglected you. I only wanted to the best for you. But always remember to aim high with that bow!" His fathers bow was enchanted by four forest druids at the same time
under a full moon. It could lite anything on fire just from a small scratch of it's arrows. When a conflict aroused from the nearby cementary WoodThorn jumped into action
along with the other warriors to see what was going on. His own father had tried to use dark magic to revive WoodThorn's dead mother. But sadly the dark magic overcame his body and turned
him into a monster. His demon like body grew large claws of wood as if it was a tree branch and attacked the young warriors. The young warriors fought but WoodThorn just colapsed in pain
from seeing his father this way. But when his father had taken the lives of all the young warriors. He looked upon his son and said "Join me son. I am one with the tree and the tree
is one with me." His father had became as solid as wood. WoodThorn wiped the tears from his face and stood up. He pulled out his fathers bow and quickly aimed it at his
father. His father swong his large claw at him but before he could strike he was halted by a blazing hot fire that had hit him in the heart. The arrow then spread the fire
along his wooden like body and he was engulfed in fire. WoodThorn knows he had done the right thing but he missed his father already. WoodThorn walked over to his mother's
rotting corpse in her wooden coffin and shed a tear on her. A few years later he became the leader of his now small village if only about 35 elves left. He was tired of the village
and wanted to explore the world. So he gather his gear and left off for adventure and glory.
What are your characters ambitions?: My character's ambitions are to become the best Blacksmith and Archer in the Relm.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? WoodThorn would gladly look through his goods to see anything of interest. Seeing as to how poor the dwarf is WoodThorn will happily buy anything from the dwarf whether he needs it or not. If the dwarf shows kindness to him then he surly will return it.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? WoodThorn looks at the Orc in disgust. WoodThorn would call out to the Orc and yell "Why not pick on someone your own size?" Of course
the Orc would pay his attention towards WoodThorn. WoodThorn would ready his bow for his first shot. Right when the Orc charges towards WoodThorn.
The Orc gets a flaming arrow through the leg and falls two feet short of WoodThorn. The Orc struggles to get back on his feet. WoodThorn extends a hand to pick the Orc up and says "You are the worst kind of coward. The one that cannot face his equal." WoodThorn pulls out a Iron dagger and hands it to the dwarf. "Do with him as you will, Dwarf".
WoodThorn then bows to the Dwarf and walks away into the distance.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man.

As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: WoodThorn would feel sorry for the old man and take a stick out of his bag. He would go to the old man and help him back on his feet and give him a stick to walk with. The old man with a smile on is face would thank WoodThorn but would struggle to pick up his Minas. So WoodThorn would go to pick up each Mina and give it to the old man in a spare leather bag WoodThorn carries. He would then say goodbye and walk to Malinor.

He vowed to keep them in his memory forever, and to be someone important and make a name for himself beyond Malimore! Maybe He would like to travel and see what other places have in store for him.

In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is: To play as a fictional character that you made up in a setting with other roleplayers.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is: The act of knowing something that your RP character shouldn't know such as someones name.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is: When someone emotes something that is unfair for example "Rick takes out Sword and Kills Bob" this is unfair since this gives Bob no chance. Now if Rick says "Rick takes out Sword and attempts to stab Bob" then this is not power-emoting and is perfectly fine.

Character Name: WoodThorn
Character Race: Elf
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: WoodThorn is a 120 Year old Wood Elf with pitch black dark hair and blue twinkling eyes. He is a archer by blood but a blacksmith at heart. He was born in the great capital of Laurelin
where his mother was sacrificed to save his life. He had been born with his eyes closed and not crying. His mother and father both knew that one of them had to give their soul to him
if he is to survive. So his caring mother pleded to the gods and took her own life with a sharp golden knife. But as soon as she died WoodThorn opened his eyes and started crying.
Since he was raised without a mother WoodThorn was tougher and more serious then most Elves. His father was strict and taught him how to be the best archer and told him
that to become sucessfull in life he had to aim high to the sky. The only thing his father did not want him to do was to work with metal as a blacksmith. It was WoodThorn's passion
to work metal into creations of armor and swords and to replenish them to a brand new state. But his father forbid him from working with metal. His father only believed in using wood as
the only true material for weapons. WoodThorn would sneak out of his treehouse and go to his own little hut he built in the forest. Where he practiced his skills
in metal work. When it became his time to become a true warrior his father gave him his bow and said "Son I always have loved you even though it might seem
as I have neglected you. I only wanted to the best for you. But always remember to aim high with that bow!" His fathers bow was enchanted by four forest druids at the same time
under a full moon. It could lite anything on fire just from a small scratch of it's arrows. When a conflict aroused from the nearby cementary WoodThorn jumped into action
along with the other warriors to see what was going on. His own father had tried to use dark magic to revive WoodThorn's dead mother. But sadly the dark magic overcame his body and turned
him into a monster. His demon like body grew large claws of wood as if it was a tree branch and attacked the young warriors. The young warriors fought but WoodThorn just colapsed in pain
from seeing his father this way. But when his father had taken the lives of all the young warriors. He looked upon his son and said "Join me son. I am one with the tree and the tree
is one with me." His father had became as solid as wood. WoodThorn wiped the tears from his face and stood up. He pulled out his fathers bow and quickly aimed it at his
father. His father swong his large claw at him but before he could strike he was halted by a blazing hot fire that had hit him in the heart. The arrow then spread the fire
along his wooden like body and he was engulfed in fire. WoodThorn knows he had done the right thing but he missed his father already. WoodThorn walked over to his mother's
rotting corpse in her wooden coffin and shed a tear on her. A few years later he had a nice home in the forest right off The Elder Tree City of Normandor. He was tired of living alone in a forest
and wanted to explore the world. So he gather his gear and left in hopes to full-fill his passion of blacksmithing.
What are your characters ambitions?: My character's ambitions are to become the best Blacksmith and Archer in the Relm.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? WoodThorn would gladly look through his goods to see anything of interest. Seeing as to how poor the dwarf is WoodThorn will happily buy anything from the dwarf whether he needs it or not. If the dwarf shows kindness to him then he surly will return it.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? WoodThorn looks at the Orc in disgust. WoodThorn would call out to the Orc and yell "Why not pick on someone your own size?" Of course
the Orc would pay his attention towards WoodThorn. WoodThorn would ready his bow for his first shot. Right when the Orc charges towards WoodThorn.
The Orc gets a flaming arrow through the leg and falls two feet short of WoodThorn. The Orc takes out the arrow from his leg like it was a toothpick and gets back on his feet with a aggressive look on his face. The Orc then swings his mighty mace nearly hitting WoodThorn. WoodThorn yells out to the dwarf "If we work like a team we can defeat him!" the dwarf nods back and picks up his hammer. The Orc looks at both WoodThorn and the dwarf and gives out a deafening war cry, he then charges at the dwarf. WoodThorn loads his bow and shoots at the Orc's hand just in time to save the Dwarf from getting his skull broken open. The dwarf then takes his hammer and smashes the Orc's foot. The Orc stumbles and falls down. Before the Orc can pull out the arrow from his hand or tend to his broken foot, WoodThorn shoots three more arrows at the Orc rendering him DEAD. WoodThorn is very tired from this battle and quickly bows to the Dwarf that in return thanks him for saving his beard. And off goes WoodThorn to his next encounter.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: WoodThorn would feel sorry for the old man and take a stick out of his bag. He would go to the old man and help him back on his feet and give him a stick to walk with. The old man with a smile on is face would thank WoodThorn but would struggle to pick up his Minas. So WoodThorn would go to pick up each Mina and give it to the old man in a spare leather bag WoodThorn carries. He would then say goodbye and walk to Malinor.

Character Name:
Juno (no last name)
Character Race:
Human
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:
Juno was never a people person. Ever since his parents had left him and his sister to live with their aunt in Al'Khazar, he had kept to himself. Their mother and father had fallen into debt, and decided to protect their children by distancing themselves from them. Juno didn't really care for the reason they did so, nor for their absence from his life. The only thing he seemed to have interest in was the well-being of his younger sister, Jovia. She was the polar opposite of Juno, always cheerful and outgoing, despite her weak body. Juno was willing to put up with other people in order to take care of his beloved sister. Without her habits of going outside to paint scenery and chase animals, he probably wouldn't have left the house at all.
Years passed. Jovia's body had become much too weak to walk on her own. Even though the locals never talked to Juno much, they admired his dedication to carrying his sister around where she wanted to go. He had grown to be fit and healthy, mostly thanks to his frequent outdoor trips with her. He was even starting to come out of his shell, little by little, engaging in small talk from time to time. It was not long after that she became too unwell to leave the house. Despite that, she retained her cheery disposition, and Juno did everything he could to make her feel better.
Unfortunately, things only got worse from there on. The undead were attacking the city, and everyone knew it was only a matter of time before it fell to the blight. Juno and Jovia were among the last to leave the city in search of refuge, joining those that were headed for Winterfell. Jovia's frail physique was badly affected by the harsh weather, no matter what Juno did to ease the pain and cold. Its severity was such that at one point of the journey she could not be moved from the encampment without suffering an incredible amount of pain. The refugees knew that she was slowing them down considerably, and made the painful decision to leave her behind at the encampment. Juno did not, instead choosing to stay with her.
The refugees left them some provisions, and went along their way. Her health steadily worsened, and Juno found it difficult to keep her alive, let alone comfortable. Repeatedly, she had asked him to leave her behind, and each time he had stood his ground. The provisions lasted them an agonizing week, owing to the fact that he hunted his own meals and gave the supplies to her. Both of them knew their options were limited.
It was then Jovia finally asked Juno to end her misery. She explained that all those times they've spent together outside, she did it to help him see how beautiful the world was. She had showed him nature, showed him art, shown him people. She had helped him just as much as he had helped her. She wanted him to live his own life, one where he was his own centre, not her. She wanted him to move on and leave her behind, but end her suffering before he did so. As hard as he opposed it, she was just as adamant, and he eventually gave in. Using the blade he had used to hunt, he beheaded her, as quickly and as painlessly as he knew how. He felt that she at least deserved a proper burial, and decided to take her corpse with him.
The journey to Winterfell was a long and painful journey, suffering from the cold and hunger. Halfway through the journey, he started to notice the symptoms of Grish, most probably contracted from his poorly-cooked meals. Visions of his now deceased sister came back to haunt him, especially the gruesome moment of her death. With both his physical, mental and emotional state strained beyond their limits, he finally collapsed, unable and unwilling to go on.
He awoke some time later to find himself in bed, being treated by a monk in Winterfell. By luck, or perhaps fate, he had lost consciousness not too far from the outpost, and was found by patrolling guards. He learnt that he had been out for a few days now, and he was fortunate that his Grish infection wasn't serious and was treated early. His hands had taken the worst damage, as those were the places that he could easily reach when the itching began. His eyesight didn't suffer too much, but were now much more sensitive to light.
After a month or two in rehabilitation, he regained his strength and began to help out in Winterfell. He tried to sign up for guard duty, but found himself unable to pick up a sword. Every time a blade was revealed to him, he suffered from a minor psychological breakdown. He distanced himself from the soldiers, and assisted the monk that helped him with his duties in the Reformed Church. He picked up some hand-to-hand combat techniques from the guards who were willing to teach him, and found out that he had a natural talent for it. Maybe it was the harsh conditioning he went through to get such a strong body, or maybe it was the fact that his hands no longer felt pain due to the Grish.
Just as things felt like they were returning to normal, the undead attacked Winterfell. Juno fought his hardest to protect the town, but the human forces were pushed back and forced to flee. As he and the others escaped the city, he thought about Jovia who was buried there, and what the undead might do with her corpse. He considered going back for her, but the monk who treated him stopped him from doing so. The town fell to the undead, and along with it, his sister.
Juno followed the monk and the Reformed Church until Alras, where he decided to part ways. He headed for Arethor, with the prospect of a new life ahead of him. Throughout the journey, up until the present, he has been hearing the voice of his sister calling for him. Is it just schizophrenia caused by his previous Grish infection, or something much more sinister?
What are your characters ambitions?:
He wants to put his past behind him and start anew. Easier said than done.
Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here:
Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:
Juno wears a hood over his face because of his sensitivity to light. His arms are bandaged up, hiding the scars and blisters from the Grish infection. He's a lukewarm believer of the Reformed Church. He always uses his fists in combat, and is able to control his psychological breakdowns at the sight of a sword or blade to a certain extent. He makes it his personal mission to kill any undead he sees and give them a proper burial. The voice of his sister continuously echoes within his mind, but he is trying to ignore it. Slowly, but surely, the voice is pushing him over the edge. He has no preference of food, and is fine with eating anything, raw or cooked, since his taste buds aren't working properly. His goal in life may seem to be to live his life to the fullest in accordance to his sister's wishes, but secretly he is searching for a way to bring her back to life, and is willing to do anything to achieve it, if the opportunity presents itself. He has taken up painting to remember his sister by. He still prefers to hang out by himself, but does not turn down company. Minas is of little value to him, and keeps just enough to get by.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?
I walk up to the store, drawn by the dwarf's loud, almost desperate calls. I scan the shelves, unsure of what I'm actually planning to do. I don't have Minas to spare, neither have I any interest in his wares. I guess I feel empathetic, seeing as he and I are quite alike, trying to set up a new life. I scratch my chin, thinking about what my sister would do in this situation. Sighing, I walk back home and search for my pickaxe. I've had some experience at the mines in Winterfell, so it shouldn't be much of a problem to round up some ores. The dwarf's gonna have a surprise tomorrow when he goes to open the shop.
You’re in the Cloud Sanctuary late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. The only present monk is fast asleep, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
Orcs. Although my hand-to-hand skills are my pride, I doubt I'll be able to face an orc in unarmed combat. Waking the monk would be a good idea, but can the dwarf wait till then? Which side is on the right side anyway, I wonder? Well, I'll have to do SOMETHING before things get out of hand. I walk up in between them and keep them at arm's length. "Now, what seems to be the problem?" I ask the orc. At that point all I can really do is hope the orc is in a talking mood and that I don't get a face full of fist. Even if it comes to that, at least the dwarf can get away. I've been in worse situations, anyway... have I?
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:
I instinctively take the man by the arm and help him up. I'm surprised at how effortlessly I do it, too. Once upon a time, I couldn't even look at anyone in the eyes save for my sister. I suppose her character HAS rubbed off me over the years. I bend over and help him pick up his Minas, and return to him every one. I've never really cared much for money, anyway. What good did it do me when I was stuck in that encampment? Besides, my sister will probably kill me if I tried to do anything funny with this guy. I best respect her wishes. She'd probably walk this old man home if she were here, too, so I'll offer to see him home safely. Guess I'll be going back late tonight.

I walk into the city of Arethor for the first time and see a poor dwarf trying to sell me wares at ridiculously low prices. Scanning the stall I see some ores I take interest in. I talk to the dwarf about a price and dont accept his low prices, i buy him at a bit more then the average price.

I intervene and the dwarf tells me that he owes the orc alot of money. I cant afford to pay the money for the dwarf so i help him escape by threatening the orc with my bow. The orc realises that he cant get to the dwarf without me shooting him so he walks away in rage.

I un-string my bow and offer it to him as a walking stick. He takes and I walk him home to keep him safe and to retake my bow when he is done with it. When i get to his home, the old man gives me some of the money, i cant resist and even though i know he has probably been saving it all his life, i take some of it.

Definitions
In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is:
Role-play is the act of becoming an imaginary character that you make real by personifying and acting out their created personality, behaviors and thoughts as they would; Role-play is best done when the person acts as their character would solely, without the restraint of their personal feelings.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is:
Metagaming is, to the most of my knowledge, using information in role-play that you usually would not have. An example would be using information gained on the forums or said in OOC to aid yourself in the future while roleplaying.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:
Power emoting is when someone makes their character irrationally strong or powerful. This can be in essentially every sense: a person who is smarter than everyone else, more politically powerful. I see power emoting as someone who role-plays and makes their character the “best” at something without giving themselves the possibility of being defeated.

More than that, she wants to explore the lands of Asulon to fuel her imagination and teach herself the ways of others. Despite wanting to be knowledgeable about all cultures and people, she lacks the tact to restrain her tongue from what might be offensive to others. She never truly means any harm; it’s just that she doesn’t see the wrong in saying what is on her mind at that moment.
What are your characters ambitions?: To explore the cultures of others and enlighten others with the fictional and true tales of the world as she views it. She would love to have a stable bookstore of some sort but because she is just beginning she is fine being something similar to a traveling merchant.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:
Despite being seemingly lighthearted, she is just as proud as other Kharajyrs about her culture. She does not take advice well from others, especially those she sees as outsiders. These people might not exactly be Kharajyrs but people who have proven their loyalty to her as friends.

Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?
I inhale deeply, closing my eyes as a stretch shortly in the middle of the road. It felt good to be with people again even if they were human and seemed to be in permanent shock at seeing a Kharajyr in one of their towns. I exhale, moving to the side of the busy road as people bump and weave past me. As I move to the left, I see the stalls of merchants calling to the people passing by, most with little luck.
I watch their lobbying for a moment with small amusement, idle jealousy and sympathy welling up inside of me before I too begin moving again, intending on ignoring them all like the humans in front of me had. However, as I pass the last meager looking stall the dwarven man inside catches my eye.
He is sturdy looking, eyes brown and filled with hope and determination. As he sees me stop, he motions toward me and I slowly come toward him.
“Say,” The dwarf begins. “It ain’ oft’n I see a cat won’r so far aw’e from ‘ome.”
The dwarf then smiles, his teeth slightly colored and broken. The insult wasn’t meant, so I let the fact he called me a cat go and give him a small smile back.
“I am a traveler as well, I also thought of being a merchant but, uh,” I think quickly, eyeing the knick-knacks and gems he has scattered around. “I don’t have that much to my name as of right now.”
The dwarf hums and leans back on his stool. He sighs as he looks past me, eyes scanning for any possible customers before he chuckles and gestures to the stool on the outside of his stand.
“I dun’ think I’ll ‘e avin’ any buy’rs. Why ‘ont we ‘ave a chat?”
I smile, eager to come into the shade as I sit and wait for the dwarf to speak.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
The night air is warm but there is a persistent breeze that chills my fur as I continue on the worn, dirt path. As I continue, I let out a yawn. I have been ready to rest for a while now, but there haven’t been any inns or friendly people eager to share their camp with a wandering soul. I shake my head, trying to clear myself of the drowsy haze and I nearly bite my tongue as an threatening growl cuts through the once calm silence of the night.
I feel my fur raise slightly in apprehension as I, despite the nagging feeling that I should be running the opposite way—where it would undoubtedly be safer—I continue on, paws stiffly sifting through the dirt.
The sight that I come to almost makes me obey my instinctual cowardice; an orc was snarling at a tremblign dwarf who seemed to be muttering frightened phrases to the angry beast. I pause, wondering what I could do in this situation, I wasn’t a fighter—I couldn’t scare the beast away—I would only make the orc angrier if I tried to speak with it. Was there anything I could do?
I sigh, shaking my head at my own worthlessness as I step into the moonlight and into the vision of both figures.
“Oh, thank ya—Kharajyr woman, please help me. This, this--!”
The orc lets out a savage noise, effectively silencing the dwarf. “Dwarf stole. Dwarf return or be punish.”
My eyes narrow as I quickly see what is going on. “This dwarf stole from you, or a dwarf stole from you?”
The orc snorts, turning back to the dwarf who backs hard into the trunk of the tree behind him. The weakness of the dwarf is…confusing. This particular dwarf seems strange and suspicious but she decides to help the man anyway.
“Orc,” Said creature turns to look at me testily. “I will give you all the gold that is in this bag if you let this thief go, deal?” I throw one of my heaviest satchels at the beast who catches it with greedy glee, about to open it.
“Ah, you mustn’t open it.” I say, calmly. “If you do, the gold inside with turn into nothing but rocks. You must be careful. Go, hurry home before the magic turns back on itself!”
The orc lets out a grunt and turns to run into the darkness, excitedly panting at its treasure.
The dwarf I saved sighs and sinks down the trunk until he hits the ground. “I never knew Kharajyrs can learn magic…”
“I’m sure there are some that can,” I respond quickly. “I can’t, the satchel was filled with rocks to begin with. If we are lucky the brute will listen and won’t find out the truth until we are far gone…”
The dwarf lets out an uneasy chuckle as I turn and stare at the shifting nature and run down pile the charging orc created.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick, looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenseless man. What does your character do?:
The old man is fragile and weak, making so many questions appear in my mind. Where is this man’s family? Why is he walking alone? Where are the men that should be protecting their grandfather? As the man’s walking stick breaks, I wonder why he hasn’t been robbed yet, especially with the many coins that he had with him.
I swallow with a bit of difficulty, jealousy and temptation making my movements a bit slow. This man…he is weak. I should be able to take what I want and run away before he would even realize what had happened. But then I look at his face and I see that his wise and knowing eyes have locked onto my face.
No, I think, this is a trap. The man’s eyes show that he knows what I was thinking…that he expects me to steal from him. I won’t. I won’t prove him right.
I grit my teeth, force myself to stop in front of him and yank the man to his feet. He lets out a startled and shocked yelp, inhaling sharply as I move away from him and scoop the Minas quickly into my hands, throw the coins into his dropped bag and toss the untied pouch at him again.
Without even speaking to the man, I pass him up and begin walking again. That man probably got his fortune by setting up unfortunate and desperate travelers and taking the reward for turning in thieves. I let out a strangled noise, upset by the injustice of the act.
As I finger the few coins in my satchel, I reason with myself. It wouldn’t have been fair if I let him have all of his Minas back, especially if it belonged to those who wouldn’t have stolen had he not provoked them. I nod, satisfied in the logic of my thievery as I continue to travel.

The dwarf looked like a sneakthief from the first time I saw him. Oh, sure. He looked like a "poor dwarf looking to make a living", but I could see his true purpose. In the dark alleyways beside him, I could see the thugs waiting to pounce as the dwarf's victims were lured by the shivering, tragic dwarf. I spat on the cobblestone beneath me and walked off, disgusted.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
I walked towards the Orc, sword drawn. "Look, mate. You and I both know that that dwarf isn't a very good candidate for threatening. And those threats! They could hardly scare a fly. I know a few threats myself. How about this one?" I thrust the sword towards the orc's heart quickly, then pull back just before it touches his chest. "Now that's a threat!"
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:
"Alright, old man. You've had your fun. As soon as I bend down to pick that up, your hired goons will attack me, is that it? Well, I'm not having any of it!" I kick the purse slightly, so it lands on his head.
"Alright, men. Are you going to come and fight? Or shall I just take all the money from your master, so you won't have any payment? I don't normally deal with bandits, you know, but I could take you!" Silence. Oh dear. I think he wasn't trying to trick me.
eladelad4, 14, eastern time zone I think, ohio, yes to the english grammer thing(don't care about how I type this though), um not that much but the experience I have had I think I am pretty good.YES, just searching for a cool server like minez on this website.
When I role-play it depends on the environment, but for minecraft I would probably go for a dark veteran of some kind, or a happy peasent
just trying to make a living. basicly something funny,cool,awsome, or interesting. I have no idea what power emoting is but if it is being extremely emotional um I guess I could do that but it depends. gilidan, elf, some sorta demon. gilidan is a wise druid elf that seeks adventure and magic. Ok its a randomly generated name from world of warcraft that I loved. And kinda made a backstory for him. AND MINECRAFT SAYS I CAN'T HAVE SKINS... so im stupid steve... it sucks...
1st question response: I would see what he had to sell and if it was something interesting I would buy it if I could afford it. And if I couldn't or didn't like anything I would be polite about it.
2nd question response:Druids can someone vines so: I would hold them both down and find out both sides of the story. then crush the evil one VERY PAINFULLY. hehe.
3rd question response: Help the man up and give him back the money and get him a better stick.
please whitelist me and tell me the ip adress please.

[color="#FF8C00"]Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: I come from the lands of Alrih, the white city of Alisthere. My birthplace. My name is Sade Carthos. I know my mother and fathers names, however they were murdered when I was a young child. I do not remember their faces but I remember their killers face perfectly. His sturn face, crooked cheekbones. I would never be so lucky to avenge the death of my family, at least not for many years. I was sent away to Asulon soon after, however, I did not want to leave. It was not my choice. My brother would not let me stay here as long as there was a blade eager to taste my blood. It was lucky he sent me so soon, both my servant and my brother were slaughtered as they slept. Now, I am the last of my bloodline and now a new king rules the throne that my father once sat upon. I fear that if I should return home I will be treated undoubtedly as the rest of my family was.
On my arrival to Asulon I was taken in by a simple farmer and his family. I housed myself under the sturdy roof of a barn. I worked as a farmhand, tending to the animals and working off the land. It was hard work and for 6 years I stayed with my new family. Even though we did not share blood, I loved them as I loved my previous family, and to this very day I know they loved me back. The work made me sturdy, well built and athletic. I did not know much about combat, I remember only vaguely the art of battle that my brother and father once taught me. My hair has grown long and almost reaches the base of my neck. The blonde strands curl at the ends. I could defend my new family from predators. However I could not defend my own father from the illness that took him from me. It was soon after that my half-sister would become ill as my father was. I new I couldn't stay. I took a vow to never rest until my family bee cured from this illness. And so, I traveled far from my home to the unknown land that stretches out before my feet.

Character Name:Wither
Character Race:Human
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:'Watch the flowers wither away as fall fades and the winter sets in.' Under a canopy of stars the young, pale human took her first gasps of living breath. It was the end of fall, the flowers were fading away, withering, the first snow threatening to settle itself upon the earth soon. Fragile as a flower, pale as the moon, she was born with red eyes instead of the normal eye color blue. Her screams and cries were constant, as constant as the sun, only to be calmed by the moon and silence of the night. Her mother, bitter at having lost her husband from a sickness before Wither was born, was unable to withstand the pressure of having a child who was constantly crying. Her mother would tie her up and bind her mouth closed to muffle the cries. Wither soon, with no ability to stretch her legs, withered as a flower would without the sun. Skin and bones, she no longer had the energy to cry or scream. Her mother finally decided to untie her, but Wither lacked enough muscle to stand or even to barely move by herself. Her mother, happy that her child no longer screamed, fed Wither little, in order to prevent her from having the strength to cry anymore. Desperate and starving for nourishment, Wither would sneak an extra piece of food here and there after meals, and within a few months the 9 year old child was soon able to stand, if only for a few moments by herself. At night, when her mother was asleep, Wither would step onto the cold floor of the small hut, and practice walking from one end to the other, back and forth, fascinated by the noises of the world outside. The hut lacked windows, and Wither had never seen the outside, besides the door. Several nights of walking back and forth, and she decided she would sooner brave the outside world, then endure her mother anymore. Hesitantly grabbing the door handle, she pulled it open, the full moon lighting her path as she slowly walked away from the small hut. She saw her first cow, grazing lazily in a small pasture, it gave a friendly "moo" when it saw her and walked toward the end of the fence. Terrified of the cow, she tried her best to get away as quickly as possible. The uneven ground and still weak muscles in her legs led her to fall, face first onto the dirt path. Hearing footsteps, she looked up and saw "Hawkes the Pale" ((Icelifreakx)) looking at her, as if confused. Terrified that she had stumbled across someone, she attempted to speak but could only manage an 'ah' as she tried to get up. The man helped her up, and she thanked him, her voice raw and uneven from lack of use.
Three years later, Wither still followed him, the vast deserts, the calm and peaceful snowy mountains, the serene woodlands, everything fascinated her. After having gotten her first wooden sword, she knew there was no tool that she would rather use, learning how to hunt and kill monsters from "Hawkes the Pale", she soon developed into a fairly good sword wielder, hunting down the monsters along side her adoptive 'father'. Her first kill had been an accident, thrilled with having received a sword, she went skipping off, full of joy. Not watching the woods around her, she walked right in front of a zombie, who turned and started to walk toward her. "no....nononono" She said, terrified. Swinging her sword wildly she started to panic, realizing her sword was now lodged into a tree, she pulled on it with all of her might to free it. She calmed herself, "I have to stay calm!" she aimed her next swing, her first hit was weak, and untimed. The zombie continued to walk toward her, and she swung again, and again, and again, till she realized she was covered in its blood and it was dead. She turned around upon hearing footsteps, "Hawkes the Pale" stood behind her and she said rather feebly "I was so scared! Yet....yet I killed it....I kill my first monster." She then smiled, so proud of herself, and decided from that day, she wanted to be a monster hunter. Throughout time, there have been those who have wanted to shed blood, and those who need to shed blood. Wither could be a content middle, craving to shed blood, and needing to shed it, as if it were like water, protecting the flower from wilting away and dying. The next few days were spent by Wither charging into battle with every monster she saw, happy to hunt them down for the words of encouragement and pats on the head from her father. She was saddened when a spider led to her wooden sword breaking, taking that to be an omen. She vowed to herself "I shall never hunt spiders again." and after getting a new sword, has never as of yet killed a spider. Instead, Wither enjoys watching the spiders from far away, secretly wondering why they are so feared.
What are your characters ambitions?:Wither wishes nothing more then to follow in her father's footsteps.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character?Her personality is not fully developed yet, due to her still being a child, so it will finish developing in roleplay, depending on how the world around her is, I hope that is acceptable.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?I walk into the city, bored and unimpressed, wishing I could go back out into the woodlands already. A dwarf stops me as I begin to walk past, looking at them I do my best to be polite and smile. "Hello, I am Wither...is there a reason you stopped me?" He looks at me like I am clueless, then begins to speak about the things he has for sale. I listen, occasionally nodding and then say "I'm sorry...I do hate to be rude but I must leave, I have someone expecting me. I'll be back soon, I promise!" Then I hurry down the street, worried that my friend has already left.
You’re in the Cloud Sanctuary late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. The only present monk is fast asleep, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?As I rest on the grass, counting the stars one by one, a noise reaches my ears, arguing of some sort. I push myself up off the grass, dusting myself off and walk over to the noise. "H-hello? Why are you shouting at each other?" I look at them both, they seem to ignore me as they get in each others faces, still bickering. I tilt my head, slightly worried and confused as to what to do. The Orc raises his fist to strike the dwarf and I push the dwarf out of the orc's reach. "Violence is never the answer!" I say meekly, trying to sound brave. The dwarf takes the moment to leave, and the Orc follows after him, still yelling. I lower my head in defeat and go back to counting the stars.

What does your character do?: I smile as and old man walks past "Good morning! Where are you off to?" I ask, as he ignores me, as he passes me his stick breaks. "Are you okay?!" I ask, worried that he is injured, he sits where he fell and I go to find a new stick for him. When I return he is still there, gathering his minas. I offer him the stick and he mutters a "Thank you" I nod and skip down the road, happy to be helpful.

In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is: role-playing, blatantly is the act of taking on an alter-ego or different personality, or pertaining to a made-up personality. It is responding to a situation using a different role.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is:I'm pretty sure meta-gaming is a very D&D thing to do. The best way I could explain it is sort of thinking outside the box using knowledge combined from in game and out of game information.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:( think I got it right this time), power emoting is typing actions that over exaggerate your abilities that give you an unfair advantage. What is generally accepted in role-playing is emoting that can add more detail into situations for example. *rolls eyes*
Character Name:Aleulla Galaid
Character Race:Elven, High Elf
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:
Aluella Gallaid’s parents were grateful for their only son’s healthy upbringing. Aluella is the heir of Manius Gallaid an old carpenter who refined elegant designs of structures in elven society. Manius has had a big impact on Aluella's passion for technique and detail as Aluella became his apprentice. However Aluella's mother Asweir ignited his passion for knowledge, as she read him stories of magic and enchantment as a child. His favourite story was of Iblees and the elf father Malin.
He enjoys detailing clothing, armour and weapons. The elegant elven style is the reason he takes pride in being a high elf.
Aluella is still young (in retrospect to other elves) however this does not impact on his mature attitude, he always respects his elders to the utmost. Though Aluella believes that he should get the same respect that he gives. His overall demeanour is usually kind and considerate.
Just like many other Mali'Aheral he has very strong beliefs in politics and elven lore. His weaknesses are that he can be controlling and can sometimes be very lazy, occasionally locking himself away for days at a time, reading and gaining knowledge.
He has short light brown/dark blond hair, which is kept well groomed. He favours the elven green and gold however he dislikes the robes that some elves wear due to comfort issues. He can be discerned by his height and passive nature.
Aluella is not an experienced fighter. He has never seen a fight in his life and does not like to battle often. His preferred solution would be to outwit the opponent, although he likes to think that he could hold his own in any fight. This overindulgence in self confidence can sometimes get him into trouble.
What are your characters ambitions?: Aluella's main goal is to gain more knowledge. Fascination by the ancient’s banishment of Iblees his ultimate dream is to learn magic used by ancients.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:
Nope.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? Try to pass by without looking at him, keep to myself. Why would I want to interact with him? what important things would he have to say? If he tries to talk to me though, I'll have to be polite, don't want him to think I'm a savage.
Dwarf: BEST SWORDS IN THE CITY, CANT GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT !
Aluella: Dwarf, you are a long way from Kal’Karik. you boast the best swords. May I view them?
Dwarf: take a look.
Aluella: Dwarf, these swords are perfect, if you want to slice cheese. They are made of cheap metal, will bend as soon as you strike.
Dwarf: I made these myself, how dare you!
Aluella: I meant not to offend Dwarf.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?I don't like violence. There are very few situations where fighting would be acceptable, this definitely isn't one of them. A dwarf in trouble. I don't see why i should help, however it is an orc. I hate orcs. The only plausible option is to talk the orc into its idiotic sense. As long as I keep it talking it will probably forget about what it was angry about. If it tries anything I might have to fight. Im not very good at hand to hand. Hopefully I have a knife stashed in my shoe.....
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:
An old man, he might be wise. Wiser than me? no, probably not. but wise nonetheless.Maybe test his knowledge later. I will have to help him up. Perhaps if he is smart I could play audience to him. Help the man up and take him to where he needs to be, he might have some knowledge to share.

Character Name: WoodThorn
Character Race: Elf
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: WoodThorn is a 120 Year old Wood Elf with pitch black dark hair and blue twinkling eyes. He is a archer by blood but a blacksmith at heart. He was born in the ancient sacred forests of he elves
where his mother was sacrificed to save his life. He had been born with his eyes closed and not crying. His mother and father both knew that one of them had to give their soul to him
if he is to survive. So his caring mother pleded to the gods and took her own life with a sharp wooden knife. But as soon as she died WoodThorn opened his eyes and started crying.
Since he was raised without a mother WoodThorn was tougher and more serious then most Elves. His father was strict and taught him how to be the best archer and told him
that to become sucessfull in life he had to aim high to the sky. The only thing his father did not want him to do was to work with metal as a blacksmith. It was WoodThorn's passion
to work metal into creations of armor and swords and to replenish them to a brand new state. But his father forbid him from working with metal. His father only believed in using wood as
the only true material for weapons. Darkthorn would sneak out of his treehouse and go to his own little hut he built in the forest. Where he practiced his skills
in metal work. When it became his time to become a true warrior his father gave him his bow and said "Son I always have loved you even though it might seem
as I have neglected you. I only wanted to the best for you. But always remember to aim high with that bow!" His fathers bow was enchanted by four forest druids at the same time
under a full moon. It could lite anything on fire just from a small scratch of it's arrows. When a conflict aroused from the nearby cementary WoodThorn jumped into action
along with the other warriors to see what was going on. His own father had tried to use dark magic to revive WoodThorn's dead mother. But sadly the dark magic overcame his body and turned
him into a monster. His demon like body grew large claws of wood as if it was a tree branch and attacked the young warriors. The young warriors fought but WoodThorn just colapsed in pain
from seeing his father this way. But when his father had taken the lives of all the young warriors. He looked upon his son and said "Join me son. I am one with the tree and the tree
is one with me." His father had became as solid as wood. WoodThorn wiped the tears from his face and stood up. He pulled out his fathers bow and quickly aimed it at his
father. His father swong his large claw at him but before he could strike he was halted by a blazing hot fire that had hit him in the heart. The arrow then spread the fire
along his wooden like body and he was engulfed in fire. WoodThorn knows he had done the right thing but he missed his father already. WoodThorn walked over to his mother's
rotting corpse in her wooden coffin and shed a tear on her. A few years later he became the leader of his now small village if only about 35 elves left. He was tired of the village
and wanted to explore the world. So he gather his gear and left off for adventure and glory.
What are your characters ambitions?: My character's ambitions are to become the best Blacksmith and Archer in the Relm.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character: His favorite colors are green and black.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? WoodThorn would gladly look through his goods to see anything of interest. Seeing as to how poor the dwarf is WoodThorn will happily buy anything from the dwarf whether he needs it or not. If the dwarf shows kindness to him then he surly will return it.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? WoodThorn looks at the Orc in disgust. WoodThorn would call out to the Orc and yell "Why not pick on someone your own size?" Of course
the Orc would pay his attention towards WoodThorn. WoodThorn would ready his bow for his first shot. Right when the Orc charges towards WoodThorn.
The Orc gets a flaming arrow through the leg and falls two feet short of WoodThorn. The Orc struggles to get back on his feet. WoodThorn extends a hand to pick the Orc up and says "You are the worst kind of coward. The one that cannot face his equal." WoodThorn pulls out a Iron dagger and hands it to the dwarf. "Do with him as you will, Dwarf".
WoodThorn then bows to the Dwarf and walks away into the distance.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: WoodThorn would feel sorry for the old man and take a stick out of his bag. He would go to the old man and help him back on his feet and give him a stick to walk with. The old man with a smile on is face would thank WoodThorn but would struggle to pick up his Minas. So WoodThorn would go to pick up each Mina and give it to the old man in a spare leather bag WoodThorn carries. He would then say goodbye and walk to Malinor.

It is unknown to him whatever happened to his parents. Although Ion didn't have many friends as a young kid he did have an "older brother" not being related. His name was Onyx. He was the only person who ever cared for Ion. One day he was drafted and later Ion found out that he was killed. This devastated Ion he almost gave up till he remembered the kind words his older friend once said "Stand tall and be someone!" This gave Ion a new awakening and he pledged to help anyone in need of his services. From that day on he was as joyous as could be and he helped anyone that needed it. One day he seen an old women fall into the river, he rushed to save her. Almost not succeeding he glided and got her out just before she drowned. She thanked him and then he helped her home. They got to talking and she told him that he was much to young to be out on the street. She asked him his age. He replied he was only 13 and she said that he would be staying with her from now on. He agreed and that day they became family.
They lived in peace for over a year, he still helped people in need of little jobs and errands. She gave him a nice warm bed and food. They loved each other.

With tears in his eyes she told him "Stand tall and be someone". She died shortly after that. Shortly after that they found her murder and he was sentenced to death. Ion in a state which seamed like he gave up on everything remember what she said right before she passed. "stand tall and be someone"? How did she know this saying? he wondered. He had never mentioned Onyx to her. He thought about it for days and even months. Then he decided that he was done feeling sorry for himself and he was gonna "STAND TALL AND BE SOMEONE" as Onyx and the old women once said. He vowed to keep them in his memory forever, and to be someone important and make a name for himself beyond Malimore! Maybe He would like to travel and see what other places have in store for him.

Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: WoodThorn is a 120 Year old Wood Elf with pitch black dark hair and blue twinkling eyes. He is a archer by blood but a blacksmith at heart. He was born in the great capital of Laurelin
where his mother was sacrificed to save his life. He had been born with his eyes closed and not crying. His mother and father both knew that one of them had to give their soul to him
if he is to survive. So his caring mother pleded to the gods and took her own life with a sharp golden knife. But as soon as she died WoodThorn opened his eyes and started crying.
Since he was raised without a mother WoodThorn was tougher and more serious then most Elves. His father was strict and taught him how to be the best archer and told him
that to become sucessfull in life he had to aim high to the sky. The only thing his father did not want him to do was to work with metal as a blacksmith. It was WoodThorn's passion
to work metal into creations of armor and swords and to replenish them to a brand new state. But his father forbid him from working with metal. His father only believed in using wood as
the only true material for weapons. WoodThorn would sneak out of his treehouse and go to his own little hut he built in the forest. Where he practiced his skills

as I have neglected you. I only wanted to the best for you. But always remember to aim high with that bow!" His fathers bow was enchanted by four forest druids at the same time
under a full moon. It could lite anything on fire just from a small scratch of it's arrows. When a conflict aroused from the nearby cementary WoodThorn jumped into action
along with the other warriors to see what was going on. His own father had tried to use dark magic to revive WoodThorn's dead mother. But sadly the dark magic overcame his body and turned
him into a monster. His demon like body grew large claws of wood as if it was a tree branch and attacked the young warriors. The young warriors fought but WoodThorn just colapsed in pain
from seeing his father this way. But when his father had taken the lives of all the young warriors. He looked upon his son and said "Join me son. I am one with the tree and the tree
is one with me." His father had became as solid as wood. WoodThorn wiped the tears from his face and stood up. He pulled out his fathers bow and quickly aimed it at his
father. His father swong his large claw at him but before he could strike he was halted by a blazing hot fire that had hit him in the heart. The arrow then spread the fire
along his wooden like body and he was engulfed in fire. WoodThorn knows he had done the right thing but he missed his father already. WoodThorn walked over to his mother's
rotting corpse in her wooden coffin and shed a tear on her. A few years later he had a nice home in the forest right off The Elder Tree City of Normandor. He was tired of living alone in a forest
and wanted to explore the world. So he gather his gear and left in hopes to full-fill his passion of blacksmithing.
What are your characters ambitions?: My character's ambitions are to become the best Blacksmith and Archer in the Relm.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character: His favorite colors are green and black.
Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? WoodThorn would gladly look through his goods to see anything of interest. Seeing as to how poor the dwarf is WoodThorn will happily buy anything from the dwarf whether he needs it or not. If the dwarf shows kindness to him then he surly will return it.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? WoodThorn looks at the Orc in disgust. WoodThorn would call out to the Orc and yell "Why not pick on someone your own size?" Of course
the Orc would pay his attention towards WoodThorn. WoodThorn would ready his bow for his first shot. Right when the Orc charges towards WoodThorn.
The Orc gets a flaming arrow through the leg and falls two feet short of WoodThorn. The Orc takes out the arrow from his leg like it was a toothpick and gets back on his feet with a aggressive look on his face. The Orc then swings his mighty mace nearly hitting WoodThorn. WoodThorn yells out to the dwarf "If we work like a team we can defeat him!" the dwarf nods back and picks up his hammer. The Orc looks at both WoodThorn and the dwarf and gives out a deafening war cry, he then charges at the dwarf. WoodThorn loads his bow and shoots at the Orc's hand just in time to save the Dwarf from getting his skull broken open. The dwarf then takes his hammer and smashes the Orc's foot. The Orc stumbles and falls down. Before the Orc can pull out the arrow from his hand or tend to his broken foot, WoodThorn shoots three more arrows at the Orc rendering him DEAD. WoodThorn is very tired from this battle and quickly bows to the Dwarf that in return thanks him for saving his beard. And off goes WoodThorn to his next encounter.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: WoodThorn would feel sorry for the old man and take a stick out of his bag. He would go to the old man and help him back on his feet and give him a stick to walk with. The old man with a smile on is face would thank WoodThorn but would struggle to pick up his Minas. So WoodThorn would go to pick up each Mina and give it to the old man in a spare leather bag WoodThorn carries. He would then say goodbye and walk to Malinor.

"NO-ONE TELLS AN EREK'WA' TO DO!" the orcs voice sound extremely agitated. "Well i'm sorry but please, stop bothering him." said Amera impatiently, the orc goes in to punch Amera, swiftly and silently ducking from the almost hitting blow. Amera stays ducked - closing her eyes and speaking under her breath silently. The orc went quiet - his mouth has been sealed by a vine around his jaw. "I didn't want to do that." said Amera. Amera kneels down till she is eye-to-eye with the dwarf "You can go home now, sorry for the trouble." "Thank 'ye." says the dwarf bowing to the lady.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground.

Amera looks at the near-by woods running tword it, Amera picks a stout stick from the tree - running back to the man "Here you go please except it." Amera said holding out the stick with one hand the other helping the man up. "Thank you SO much young one, this will not be forgotten."

Juno (no last name)
Character Race:
Human
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:
Juno was never a people person. Ever since his parents had left him and his sister to live with their aunt in Al'Khazar, he had kept to himself. Their mother and father had fallen into debt, and decided to protect their children by distancing themselves from them. Juno didn't really care for the reason they did so, nor for their absence from his life. The only thing he seemed to have interest in was the well-being of his younger sister, Jovia. She was the polar opposite of Juno, always cheerful and outgoing, despite her weak body. Juno was willing to put up with other people in order to take care of his beloved sister. Without her habits of going outside to paint scenery and chase animals, he probably wouldn't have left the house at all.
Years passed. Jovia's body had become much too weak to walk on her own. Even though the locals never talked to Juno much, they admired his dedication to carrying his sister around where she wanted to go. He had grown to be fit and healthy, mostly thanks to his frequent outdoor trips with her. He was even starting to come out of his shell, little by little, engaging in small talk from time to time. It was not long after that she became too unwell to leave the house. Despite that, she retained her cheery disposition, and Juno did everything he could to make her feel better.
Unfortunately, things only got worse from there on. The undead were attacking the city, and everyone knew it was only a matter of time before it fell to the blight. Juno and Jovia were among the last to leave the city in search of refuge, joining those that were headed for Winterfell. Jovia's frail physique was badly affected by the harsh weather, no matter what Juno did to ease the pain and cold. Its severity was such that at one point of the journey she could not be moved from the encampment without suffering an incredible amount of pain. The refugees knew that she was slowing them down considerably, and made the painful decision to leave her behind at the encampment. Juno did not, instead choosing to stay with her.
The refugees left them some provisions, and went along their way. Her health steadily worsened, and Juno found it difficult to keep her alive, let alone comfortable. Repeatedly, she had asked him to leave her behind, and each time he had stood his ground. The provisions lasted them an agonizing week, owing to the fact that he hunted his own meals and gave the supplies to her. Both of them knew their options were limited.
It was then Jovia finally asked Juno to end her misery. She explained that all those times they've spent together outside, she did it to help him see how beautiful the world was. She had showed him nature, showed him art, shown him people. She had helped him just as much as he had helped her. She wanted him to live his own life, one where he was his own centre, not her. She wanted him to move on and leave her behind, but end her suffering before he did so. As hard as he opposed it, she was just as adamant, and he eventually gave in. Using the blade he had used to hunt, he beheaded her, as quickly and as painlessly as he knew how. He felt that she at least deserved a proper burial, and decided to take her corpse with him.
The journey to Winterfell was a long and painful journey, suffering from the cold and hunger. Halfway through the journey, he started to notice the symptoms of Grish, most probably contracted from his poorly-cooked meals. Visions of his now deceased sister came back to haunt him, especially the gruesome moment of her death. With both his physical, mental and emotional state strained beyond their limits, he finally collapsed, unable and unwilling to go on.
He awoke some time later to find himself in bed, being treated by a monk in Winterfell. By luck, or perhaps fate, he had lost consciousness not too far from the outpost, and was found by patrolling guards. He learnt that he had been out for a few days now, and he was fortunate that his Grish infection wasn't serious and was treated early. His hands had taken the worst damage, as those were the places that he could easily reach when the itching began. His eyesight didn't suffer too much, but were now much more sensitive to light.
After a month or two in rehabilitation, he regained his strength and began to help out in Winterfell. He tried to sign up for guard duty, but found himself unable to pick up a sword. Every time a blade was revealed to him, he suffered from a minor psychological breakdown. He distanced himself from the soldiers, and assisted the monk that helped him with his duties in the Reformed Church. He picked up some hand-to-hand combat techniques from the guards who were willing to teach him, and found out that he had a natural talent for it. Maybe it was the harsh conditioning he went through to get such a strong body, or maybe it was the fact that his hands no longer felt pain due to the Grish.
Just as things felt like they were returning to normal, the undead attacked Winterfell. Juno fought his hardest to protect the town, but the human forces were pushed back and forced to flee. As he and the others escaped the city, he thought about Jovia who was buried there, and what the undead might do with her corpse. He considered going back for her, but the monk who treated him stopped him from doing so. The town fell to the undead, and along with it, his sister.
Juno followed the monk and the Reformed Church until Alras, where he decided to part ways. He headed for Arethor, with the prospect of a new life ahead of him. Throughout the journey, up until the present, he has been hearing the voice of his sister calling for him. Is it just schizophrenia caused by his previous Grish infection, or something much more sinister?
What are your characters ambitions?:
He wants to put his past behind him and start anew. Easier said than done.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:
Juno wears a hood over his face because of his sensitivity to light. His arms are bandaged up, hiding the scars and blisters from the Grish infection. He's a lukewarm believer of the Reformed Church. He always uses his fists in combat, and is able to control his psychological breakdowns at the sight of a sword or blade to a certain extent. He makes it his personal mission to kill any undead he sees and give them a proper burial. The voice of his sister continuously echoes within his mind, but he is trying to ignore it. Slowly, but surely, the voice is pushing him over the edge. He has no preference of food, and is fine with eating anything, raw or cooked, since his taste buds aren't working properly. His goal in life may seem to be to live his life to the fullest in accordance to his sister's wishes, but secretly he is searching for a way to bring her back to life, and is willing to do anything to achieve it, if the opportunity presents itself. He has taken up painting to remember his sister by. He still prefers to hang out by himself, but does not turn down company. Minas is of little value to him, and keeps just enough to get by.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?
I walk up to the store, drawn by the dwarf's loud, almost desperate calls. I scan the shelves, unsure of what I'm actually planning to do. I don't have Minas to spare, neither have I any interest in his wares. I guess I feel empathetic, seeing as he and I are quite alike, trying to set up a new life. I scratch my chin, thinking about what my sister would do in this situation. Sighing, I walk back home and search for my pickaxe. I've had some experience at the mines in Winterfell, so it shouldn't be much of a problem to round up some ores. The dwarf's gonna have a surprise tomorrow when he goes to open the shop.
You’re in the Cloud Sanctuary late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. The only present monk is fast asleep, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
Orcs. Although my hand-to-hand skills are my pride, I doubt I'll be able to face an orc in unarmed combat. Waking the monk would be a good idea, but can the dwarf wait till then? Which side is on the right side anyway, I wonder? Well, I'll have to do SOMETHING before things get out of hand. I walk up in between them and keep them at arm's length. "Now, what seems to be the problem?" I ask the orc. At that point all I can really do is hope the orc is in a talking mood and that I don't get a face full of fist. Even if it comes to that, at least the dwarf can get away. I've been in worse situations, anyway... have I?
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:
I instinctively take the man by the arm and help him up. I'm surprised at how effortlessly I do it, too. Once upon a time, I couldn't even look at anyone in the eyes save for my sister. I suppose her character HAS rubbed off me over the years. I bend over and help him pick up his Minas, and return to him every one. I've never really cared much for money, anyway. What good did it do me when I was stuck in that encampment? Besides, my sister will probably kill me if I tried to do anything funny with this guy. I best respect her wishes. She'd probably walk this old man home if she were here, too, so I'll offer to see him home safely. Guess I'll be going back late tonight.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. the shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?
I walk into the city of Arethor for the first time and see a poor dwarf trying to sell me wares at ridiculously low prices. Scanning the stall I see some ores I take interest in. I talk to the dwarf about a price and dont accept his low prices, i buy him at a bit more then the average price.
You’re in the Cloud Sanctuary late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. the only present monk is fast asleep, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
The orc is only a moderate distance away from me, i could easily kill him with my bow, but then i think, i dont know what is happening in this situation. I intervene and the dwarf tells me that he owes the orc alot of money. I cant afford to pay the money for the dwarf so i help him escape by threatening the orc with my bow. The orc realises that he cant get to the dwarf without me shooting him so he walks away in rage.

The money spills onto the ground and i stare at it lustfully. My mind is in turmoil, take it, or dont take it? In the end good wins over and I help the old man up. I un-string my bow and offer it to him as a walking stick. He takes and I walk him home to keep him safe and to retake my bow when he is done with it. When i get to his home, the old man gives me some of the money, i cant resist and even though i know he has probably been saving it all his life, i take some of it.

In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is:
Role-play is the act of becoming an imaginary character that you make real by personifying and acting out their created personality, behaviors and thoughts as they would; Role-play is best done when the person acts as their character would solely, without the restraint of their personal feelings.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is:
Metagaming is, to the most of my knowledge, using information in role-play that you usually would not have. An example would be using information gained on the forums or said in OOC to aid yourself in the future while roleplaying.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:
Power emoting is when someone makes their character irrationally strong or powerful. This can be in essentially every sense: a person who is smarter than everyone else, more politically powerful. I see power emoting as someone who role-plays and makes their character the “best” at something without giving themselves the possibility of being defeated.
Character Name: Lorei
Character Race: Kharajyr
Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:
Lorei is a young Kha’ Cheetrah. She is curious by nature and an eager learner. However, she fears making mistakes and shaming her associates and fellow Kharajyrs (strangers and non-Kharajyrs are ignored for the most part). As a kitten, Lorei has been independent and filled with potential and wild dreams. She would talk her parents to death about her ambitions and wild imaginative stories.
Now, she wants to take hold of her previous stories and use them to entertain the public, she wants to become a writer. More than that, she wants to explore the lands of Asulon to fuel her imagination and teach herself the ways of others. Despite wanting to be knowledgeable about all cultures and people, she lacks the tact to restrain her tongue from what might be offensive to others. She never truly means any harm; it’s just that she doesn’t see the wrong in saying what is on her mind at that moment.
What are your characters ambitions?: To explore the cultures of others and enlighten others with the fictional and true tales of the world as she views it. She would love to have a stable bookstore of some sort but because she is just beginning she is fine being something similar to a traveling merchant.
Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here:
Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:
Despite being seemingly lighthearted, she is just as proud as other Kharajyrs about her culture. She does not take advice well from others, especially those she sees as outsiders. These people might not exactly be Kharajyrs but people who have proven their loyalty to her as friends.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?
I inhale deeply, closing my eyes as a stretch shortly in the middle of the road. It felt good to be with people again even if they were human and seemed to be in permanent shock at seeing a Kharajyr in one of their towns. I exhale, moving to the side of the busy road as people bump and weave past me. As I move to the left, I see the stalls of merchants calling to the people passing by, most with little luck.
I watch their lobbying for a moment with small amusement, idle jealousy and sympathy welling up inside of me before I too begin moving again, intending on ignoring them all like the humans in front of me had. However, as I pass the last meager looking stall the dwarven man inside catches my eye.
He is sturdy looking, eyes brown and filled with hope and determination. As he sees me stop, he motions toward me and I slowly come toward him.
“Say,” The dwarf begins. “It ain’ oft’n I see a cat won’r so far aw’e from ‘ome.”
The dwarf then smiles, his teeth slightly colored and broken. The insult wasn’t meant, so I let the fact he called me a cat go and give him a small smile back.
“I am a traveler as well, I also thought of being a merchant but, uh,” I think quickly, eyeing the knick-knacks and gems he has scattered around. “I don’t have that much to my name as of right now.”
The dwarf hums and leans back on his stool. He sighs as he looks past me, eyes scanning for any possible customers before he chuckles and gestures to the stool on the outside of his stand.
“I dun’ think I’ll ‘e avin’ any buy’rs. Why ‘ont we ‘ave a chat?”
I smile, eager to come into the shade as I sit and wait for the dwarf to speak.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
The night air is warm but there is a persistent breeze that chills my fur as I continue on the worn, dirt path. As I continue, I let out a yawn. I have been ready to rest for a while now, but there haven’t been any inns or friendly people eager to share their camp with a wandering soul. I shake my head, trying to clear myself of the drowsy haze and I nearly bite my tongue as an threatening growl cuts through the once calm silence of the night.
I feel my fur raise slightly in apprehension as I, despite the nagging feeling that I should be running the opposite way—where it would undoubtedly be safer—I continue on, paws stiffly sifting through the dirt.
The sight that I come to almost makes me obey my instinctual cowardice; an orc was snarling at a tremblign dwarf who seemed to be muttering frightened phrases to the angry beast. I pause, wondering what I could do in this situation, I wasn’t a fighter—I couldn’t scare the beast away—I would only make the orc angrier if I tried to speak with it. Was there anything I could do?
I sigh, shaking my head at my own worthlessness as I step into the moonlight and into the vision of both figures.
“Oh, thank ya—Kharajyr woman, please help me. This, this--!”
The orc lets out a savage noise, effectively silencing the dwarf. “Dwarf stole. Dwarf return or be punish.”
My eyes narrow as I quickly see what is going on. “This dwarf stole from you, or a dwarf stole from you?”
The orc snorts, turning back to the dwarf who backs hard into the trunk of the tree behind him. The weakness of the dwarf is…confusing. This particular dwarf seems strange and suspicious but she decides to help the man anyway.
“Orc,” Said creature turns to look at me testily. “I will give you all the gold that is in this bag if you let this thief go, deal?” I throw one of my heaviest satchels at the beast who catches it with greedy glee, about to open it.
“Ah, you mustn’t open it.” I say, calmly. “If you do, the gold inside with turn into nothing but rocks. You must be careful. Go, hurry home before the magic turns back on itself!”
The orc lets out a grunt and turns to run into the darkness, excitedly panting at its treasure.
The dwarf I saved sighs and sinks down the trunk until he hits the ground. “I never knew Kharajyrs can learn magic…”
“I’m sure there are some that can,” I respond quickly. “I can’t, the satchel was filled with rocks to begin with. If we are lucky the brute will listen and won’t find out the truth until we are far gone…”
The dwarf lets out an uneasy chuckle as I turn and stare at the shifting nature and run down pile the charging orc created.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick, looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenseless man. What does your character do?:
The old man is fragile and weak, making so many questions appear in my mind. Where is this man’s family? Why is he walking alone? Where are the men that should be protecting their grandfather? As the man’s walking stick breaks, I wonder why he hasn’t been robbed yet, especially with the many coins that he had with him.
I swallow with a bit of difficulty, jealousy and temptation making my movements a bit slow. This man…he is weak. I should be able to take what I want and run away before he would even realize what had happened. But then I look at his face and I see that his wise and knowing eyes have locked onto my face.
No, I think, this is a trap. The man’s eyes show that he knows what I was thinking…that he expects me to steal from him. I won’t. I won’t prove him right.
I grit my teeth, force myself to stop in front of him and yank the man to his feet. He lets out a startled and shocked yelp, inhaling sharply as I move away from him and scoop the Minas quickly into my hands, throw the coins into his dropped bag and toss the untied pouch at him again.
Without even speaking to the man, I pass him up and begin walking again. That man probably got his fortune by setting up unfortunate and desperate travelers and taking the reward for turning in thieves. I let out a strangled noise, upset by the injustice of the act.
As I finger the few coins in my satchel, I reason with myself. It wouldn’t have been fair if I let him have all of his Minas back, especially if it belonged to those who wouldn’t have stolen had he not provoked them. I nod, satisfied in the logic of my thievery as I continue to travel.

Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:
I was born on one of the many islands that surround the large landmass of Asulon. My father was a blacksmith, and my mother worked the farms. We were a poor family. One day, my father was called in to go to the wars. He never came back. We then moved to the central landmass. I grew up a fine lad, with
bulging muscles, and blonde, flowing hair. Then, tragedy struck. My mother, who I had cared for for so long, was stricken with disease.
She died within the year. I strove to fight against the creatures who had so brutally murdered my father, and eventually moved to Solace. The following few years, I trained in swordfighting, and mastery of the art of war. My eyes grew keen. I was finally ready.
What are your characters ambitions?:
-To avenge his father's death.
-To join a guild of some sort
-To meet the love of his life.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:
No.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?
The dwarf looked like a sneakthief from the first time I saw him. Oh, sure. He looked like a "poor dwarf looking to make a living", but I could see his true purpose. In the dark alleyways beside him, I could see the thugs waiting to pounce as the dwarf's victims were lured by the shivering, tragic dwarf. I spat on the cobblestone beneath me and walked off, disgusted.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?
I walked towards the Orc, sword drawn. "Look, mate. You and I both know that that dwarf isn't a very good candidate for threatening. And those threats! They could hardly scare a fly. I know a few threats myself. How about this one?" I thrust the sword towards the orc's heart quickly, then pull back just before it touches his chest. "Now that's a threat!"
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:
"Alright, old man. You've had your fun. As soon as I bend down to pick that up, your hired goons will attack me, is that it? Well, I'm not having any of it!" I kick the purse slightly, so it lands on his head.
"Alright, men. Are you going to come and fight? Or shall I just take all the money from your master, so you won't have any payment? I don't normally deal with bandits, you know, but I could take you!" Silence. Oh dear. I think he wasn't trying to trick me.
When I role-play it depends on the environment, but for minecraft I would probably go for a dark veteran of some kind, or a happy peasent
just trying to make a living. basicly something funny,cool,awsome, or interesting. I have no idea what power emoting is but if it is being extremely emotional um I guess I could do that but it depends. gilidan, elf, some sorta demon. gilidan is a wise druid elf that seeks adventure and magic. Ok its a randomly generated name from world of warcraft that I loved. And kinda made a backstory for him. AND MINECRAFT SAYS I CAN'T HAVE SKINS... so im stupid steve... it sucks...
1st question response: I would see what he had to sell and if it was something interesting I would buy it if I could afford it. And if I couldn't or didn't like anything I would be polite about it.
2nd question response:Druids can someone vines so: I would hold them both down and find out both sides of the story. then crush the evil one VERY PAINFULLY. hehe.
3rd question response: Help the man up and give him back the money and get him a better stick.
please whitelist me and tell me the ip adress please.

As the time is set long before the "players" time, The character you are roleplaying as the character would have no idea of the ways of the present time of the player.

[color="#FF8C00"]Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: I come from the lands of Alrih, the white city of Alisthere. My birthplace. My name is Sade Carthos. I know my mother and fathers names, however they were murdered when I was a young child. I do not remember their faces but I remember their killers face perfectly. His sturn face, crooked cheekbones. I would never be so lucky to avenge the death of my family, at least not for many years. I was sent away to Asulon soon after, however, I did not want to leave. It was not my choice. My brother would not let me stay here as long as there was a blade eager to taste my blood. It was lucky he sent me so soon, both my servant and my brother were slaughtered as they slept. Now, I am the last of my bloodline and now a new king rules the throne that my father once sat upon. I fear that if I should return home I will be treated undoubtedly as the rest of my family was.
On my arrival to Asulon I was taken in by a simple farmer and his family. I housed myself under the sturdy roof of a barn. I worked as a farmhand, tending to the animals and working off the land. It was hard work and for 6 years I stayed with my new family. Even though we did not share blood, I loved them as I loved my previous family, and to this very day I know they loved me back. The work made me sturdy, well built and athletic. I did not know much about combat, I remember only vaguely the art of battle that my brother and father once taught me. My hair has grown long and almost reaches the base of my neck. The blonde strands curl at the ends. I could defend my new family from predators. However I could not defend my own father from the illness that took him from me. It was soon after that my half-sister would become ill as my father was. I new I couldn't stay. I took a vow to never rest until my family bee cured from this illness. And so, I traveled far from my home to the unknown land that stretches out before my feet.
[color="#FF8C00"]What are your characters ambitions?: To avenge the death of his family and find a cure for his new sister and mothers illness.[/color]

[color="#FF8C00"][i]Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? I hear the small mans deep voice call to me. I know my goal is not here with the dwarf, however my thoughts sadden as I notice how desperate he really is. I turn and face the man. I do not stare, nor treat him any disrespect. I have seen his race before, once. Along the road to where I am now. I greet him politely and unfortunately my voice stumbles as it once did as a boy. I repeat my greeting again with a controlled voice. He smiles, "its been a long time since someone decent has responded to me." I look down at my feet and smile, "and I am decent, You would know?" I reply. "Aye, I would assume so lad." I shuffle towards the man and ask; "Can I see your goods?". The dwarfs expression lightens. "as you wish." W[/i][/color]

What does your character do?: I am surprised to see the old man crumble to the ground. He moans quietly, He stares into my own eyes. I see fear, the same fear I saw in my fathers eyes as he slipped from reality. A pile of Minas has piled at my feet. I crouch down and roll the Minas around in the center of the palm of my hand. The Minas could almost definitely aid me in my quest to find a cure. However I would be committing a felony, Stealing from the weak. I would not do such a thing. I could not. I lay down my own walking stick and scoop the coins up in the hands. The old mans first impression of my actions left him bowing his head sobbing. I Pour the coins into the pouch and lay it in front of him just enough for him to see it. As his head lifts I hold my hand to him. "thankyou" He whispers softly. I help him to his feet and put the stick in his hands. Saying nothing, I turn to walk away but he cries; "wait!" I turn and face him, His free hand extended, holding a singular gem. I smile at his offer. "Be safe, these roads are hard. Keep that purse somewhere hidden." I take the gem from the man and turn to walk away, no more words are spoken and I do not turn back.
