Open-Response-Questions Each question in this section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
____
1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: I am horrified. I speak with the older group, asking why they're doing it. They reply reluctantly, with a rather useless answer. "Because". I attempt to persuade the group to leave the child alone, and soon enough they agree. I then ask the child where it lives, and guide him back to his home.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?
Answer: I pick up the gold, and tuck it in my pocket, when and if he wakes up, I'll give it back, for I do not want any thieves taking advantage of the poor man, I look to see what's on him, but unfortunately there is no way of seeing who his relatives are, or if they're still alive, for that matter. I look around, trying to find a place to move him to, and I soon find a soft patch of grass, about twenty minutes later the man wakes up, and I give him the coins, as long as some of my own gold, to help him with his endeavors.
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer: He points to a beautifully carved bow, with unfamiliar inscriptions on it. I stare at if for a few seconds, taking it in. The first thing I ask is, "Is it real, I mean, not a replica?" The man replies with "Nope, it's real, ain't it a beauty? It'll cost you a pretty penny, but I'm willing to haggle with you"
"And the carvings? What are they?"
"I ain't got no idea, but they're so intricate, that I'd be quite convinced it was elvish"
"Name your price"
"50 gold coins"
"30"
"45"
"35, That's my last offer."
"I guess I could sell it for that, hoped I woulda got more from it though, well anyway, here you go, and the coins? Yes thank you, have a nice day, now."
[b]Out-Of-CharacterInformation[/b] Please fill out the following questions as accurately as possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate. Minecraft Account Name: 1021099 How old are you?: 15, in year 10. Time-Zone: GMT + 8 (Western Australia) Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Yes. What previous experience have you had in role-playing?: Most of the roleplay I have done is in Dungeons and Dragons. I have roleplayed with friends on google docs, IRC’s, but most importantly watched my friend _Grim1_ play on this server. (Both of us live together at a boarding house, and I watch him play sometimes.) How did you hear about the the Lord of the Craft?: Through Grim1. He talks a lot about it at school. Link any applications that you have previously made for the server : NA Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If not, then please do so (link above): Have you read the Dwarven lore, and shall you ensure you make use of it and follow it in your biography?: Yes I have, and I will enjoy using it! However I am not fully on top of the language yet, but I learnt the blah pretty fast and I’ll play LotC with a Dwarven vocabulary page open for reference. Hopefully I’ll learn as I play. Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!: Role-playing: Role playing is pretending you are the character you play as. That means using your biography and past for that character to influence your decisions. Meta-gaming: Using OOC (Out of character) knowledge in your roleplaying. This includes knowing who someone is without seeing their face or asking their name. Power-emoting: Making your character perform an action too fast and powerfully, and not giving others a chance to react. This is also referred to as power gaming. In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Davin Redwood. More formally, Longbeard Davin Redwood, descendant of the Frostbeard clan. Current Age: 47 years. Almost seven seasons. Sub-race (if any): Mixed race Dwarf (Mountain Dwarf and Cavern Dwarf.) Clan (if any): The Frostbeard clan. However Davin doesn’t really consider himself a true Frostbeard. Past /History(include childhood, major-events, etc.2+ paragraphs long):[/b] Davin smiled at the question. “Hah. No one’s asked ‘bout where I’m from for years!” He downed a few gulps from the keg in his hand and as he set the frothing ale down, settled deep into the wooden chair. “I was born somewhere near Kal ‘Dwain, on the coast. Never met my father, but I grew up with my mother.” He wiped his mouth with the back of his worn leather glove. “She worked hard for me, at the docks. Her name was Velina, her father was a Frostbeard.” *Scoff* Davin sat forwards, and rubbed the stubble on his neck, peering into the fire. The dancing flames reflected in his eyes. “She always told me I had strong blood in my veins. Ugh.” He spits over his shoulder and takes another swing of the honeyed ale. “No. I don’t know who my father was, but he was a Cave Dwarf. No doubt there.” He grins. “So that’s me. Half Cave, half Mountain. Anyway, when I was two seasons grown, I left my mother, my baby brother, and their cosy house by the sea, and ran off. Made my way to ‘Dwain town with the dog. I lived there for three years.” The Dwarf shifted in his seat and cleared his throat. “One of the things I can remember best was my friend Ka’Bei. He was a goblin orphan, working with the village clockmaker. Only a foot taller than me, but smart. And a good tinkerer. I picked up how to read from ‘im, and learnt to write, too. We stole pies from shop windows, climbed to the top of the city walls at night, fought with the other kids in our block. Eventually, when he grew his tusks, we decided to leave. Make our way to a bigger town, see the world.
So we left Kal ‘Dwain and took to the road, making good distance during the day and setting up camp during the night, fighting off the occasional spider or zombie. I taught Bei how to fish in the streams, and he taught me how to look for bitterroot amongst the grass, and plucked me apples from trees. River...River was my dog. She ran off and brought back ground fowl and chicken. We all were happy. We’d been on the King’s road for a few weeks by then, and we met our first travellers. Orcs, two of them. I was scared stiff, but Bei stood up to them. He handed over what money we had but told them to keep on their way. The bigger one of the two, I remember him. He was missing an ear, and he had a huge skinning knife at his belt. He lifted Bei off the ground by the throat and they had a short exchange in blah. The second Orc had a yew hunting bow with a heavy shaft arrow nocked, and he just laughed at whatever the big one said. Ugly sods” Davin licked his lips uncomfortably. “Well, the big one got bored, and asked Bei one more question. When they laughed at the response, he crushed Bei’s neck in his hand. Just like that.” *sigh* Davin drained the ale from the keg, then slid it slowly across the table. “He dropped Bei’s body in the dirt and drew his curved knife, stepped towards me. The second Orc lifted his bow and drew the string right back. As the first one walked up, River sidled in between us and growled. I should’a held her back, should have done something to help Bei ‘afore, but I was scared. I just stood there. The Orc leant down to pat her, and when she snapped at him, big er kicked her in the chest, and the other one put an arrow through her as she ran. Bei and River dying was my first real tragedy, and I think I grew into a man at that moment. Though I was lucky myself to live. I only just managed to talk my way out of it, and it cost me.” Davin tilted his head up and showed an old scar under his chin, beneath his thick beard. He then lifted his left sleeve and revealed an ugly mark which was obviously the result of a deep cut. “Stabbed me in the arm and hacked off my beard.” He grinned again. “I had to stuff the wound with birch leaves and head to the nearest outpost. I like Orcs. Most of ‘em I’ve met since are hard folk, but they love to have fun, and they can be great friends. But , if you ever get one angry…I’ve seen an Orc run a man through for calling him whitewash. You’ve got to respect them until you know them well, that’s all. But yeah. I realised a lot of things after I’d slept off the fever from the wounds, and gotten over the deaths of my friends. I realised I’d been stupid. Abandoned my family. I don’t really consider myself a Frostbeard but I’d dishonoured the clan, you know? Once I re-gained my strength, I set off for Kal ‘Dwain docks. The journey took me a while, and by the time I finally returned I was near three seasons old. My family was gone. I asked one of the sailors what had happened and he said thay’d left. Run out of money and moved away.” Davin shrugged his heavy shoulders with a jingle, as the tools on his harness swung about. “Haven’t seen or heard of them since. So I made my way slowly up north until I was away from other Dwarves. I hauled lumber for settlements and helped out where I could. I’ve spent good time with elf and human. They’re good folk, and I like making new friends. And now-a-days? I keep on the move, but I’m near seven seasons old now. About 47 years. It’ll be a special time soon, seven seasons. I want to settle down.” Davin tilted his head and gestured that he’d finished his story, then looked up at the friend with him at the table. “So! What about you!? Where are you from? Hah! /S two kegs of ale! Ambitionsfor the Future: Davin wishes to continue helping out in villages and outposts for a while, but in the back of his mind is looking for the right place to settle. (OOC: After I’ve gotten the basics of gameplay down, I’ll try and get a permit to create a suitable house in the woods. Eventually, when the time suits both of us, I’ll rp meet up with _Grim1_ and his character, and go off with him on an adventure :D) Personality: Alliance is neutral good. He is friendly, helpful, cheerful but can become angry when pushed too far. Despite this Davin is an easy to get along with character and likes making friends. Skills: Davin can get on with most people. He is a smart worker and has a good mind for hunting, building and even politics. He is also quite strong, and is able to mine safely and efficiently, but perhaps not as well as most others of his race. On top of this, Davin has spent much time in forests and woodlands, and is capable of distinguishing the berries and roots that are safely edible, and he can certainly handle his mead! However, Davin’s combat ability is quite poor. When fighting he will often lose his cool and succumb to a wild, all-out temper that causes him to flail about predictably. But he is a sufficient archer and is good with a short bow. Davin is a thoughtful, helpful man, but perhaps someone still touched by the guilt and hardships of his youth. Appearance(this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Any other details you wish to share about your character: He spends most of his time with other races, and has a fairly simplified lifestyle for a Dwarf. [b]Open-Response-Questions[/b] [i]Each question inthis section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the eventin full.Please be as descriptive as possible anddonotbreak character or lore at any point.[/i] ____ [b]1.Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on.Thereis a very thin rock bridge that looks precariously unstable, but it is the only way to access the deposit.Whatdo you do?[/b] Answer: “Diamond? Huh.” Davin rubbed his nose. He could see that there was no way over the bridge, but he quickly scanned the area for an alternative route. Hah. There. A narrow ledge worked its way around the walls. He always carried some wood planks with him, so he could bridge the gaps in the ledge as he went. Carefully, Davin worked across the chasm, and unholstered his pick once he reached his goal. As he gently chipped the gems from the stone, Davin considered himself lucky. He didn’t often go mining this deep, and gems were a rare find. These diamonds would make a nice addition to his small collection. [b]2.You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you is a rather young dwarf whom is clearly going through a bad time.Heis crying to himself,and clutching a small wooden hammer toy.In the other corner of the room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally at the dwarf.They stand up, one with a small dagger in his hand andbegin to approach the young dwarf.Whatdo you do?[/b] Answer: Davin raised an eyebrow as the two he’d noticed before approached the youngster. He considered intervening but shrugged it off. It wasn’t his business. But he still watched from the corner of his eye. The three shared a quiet exchange, but then the first one spat at the seated Dwarf, stuck the knife in the bench top, slapped the hammer from the Dwarfs grasp and grabbed him by his jacket. Davin stood. “Hey lads!” A few people in the tavern glanced up at the commotion. “Leave him alone!” Davin was a strong man, and he hoped he was intimidating enough to scare of the two. But it didn’t seem to be the case. “Eh?” Replied the first, before the second drew a glinting short blade from his side. An ugly, sudden silence fell in the tavern. No one spoke. Unexpectedly, a quiet figure who’d been seated near Davin also stood and looked up at the youths, a beautifully engraved, castle forged sword in hand. Davin lifted his heavy pickaxe from its holster and gritted his teeth. More people stood up, drawing weapons. The two Dwarfs looked at Davin, then the Elf, and glanced around the whole room before snatching the dagger up, and backing slowly from the tavern. The kid at the table, released from the hold, sunk down to the wood sobbing. Davin glanced up at the elf, nodded thanks, then edged past and laid a hand on the youths shoulder. Someone picked up the toy hammer and placed it by his side. Laughter and talk quickly resumed in the room. “Here.” Called Davin as he gestured to the barman. “A cup of mead.” [b]3.Whilst wandering through the DwarvenCaverns you hear a voice call out to you;“Oi, ye’! C’mere n’get ye’rself an ale!”.You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded bar-owner looking at you - a huge grin on his face,and a mug of ale in his hand.Howdo you react?[/b] Davin stopped dead in his tracks. …W..What? It was rare to see anyone else this far underground. And this one certainly didn’t look like any miner. “Uh…” Davin stepped unsurely towards the barmen, but then saw the man’s inviting smile turn ugly. A voice sounded from behind him. “Hands up mate.” Davin twirled around. A hooded figure held a drawn, straining bow at him. Oh damn. “Alright! Alright!” Davin knelt down and unclipped his belt, which had all his tools attached, including a long bladed hunting dagger. The thief stepped towards him, and pushed him onto his stomach, before rifling through his pouches. After he’d been searched, they two chuckling thieves left him to brush the gravel of his knees as they ran off with his sack of coal and iron. Oh well. At least the lapus he’d found was still tucked securely into his hidden gems pocket. But they’d taken his flint and steel as well. Grumbling, Davin clipped his belt and climbing harness back on before spitting onto the ground. “Bloody sods.” He continued up to the surface, a great deal lighter climb than it was before.

Full Name: Giblet The Savage
Current Age:36
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Giblet spend a lot of his time forging weapons for his father. He was more of a slave then anything. His father and mother were declared whitewashes by the orcs and he was born into it. His personality was that of a true orc though. He worked as somewhat of a smith's apprentice to his father. He didn't have a choice though, his father forced him too. Giblet thought that he should be a warrior, not the one who makes the warrior's armor and weapons. One day some orcs came into Salvus, where he lived, and captured all 3 of them.
The orcs found pity for Giblet and thought they could still make him think like an orc.
The orcs decided on how the execution of his mother and father would go. They would have Giblet executed them. An elder orc handed Giblet an axe and in the blink of an eye, his father died. No one told Giblet to kill him. He just did. As for his mother, he threw her off a cliff. He knew he had betrayed his mother, but he did not care for his father. He visits the exact spot where he threw his mother off often. His acts gave him the title "Giblet the Savage". He was only 12 summers old at the time of the execution.
Everyone had forgot about the execution and Giblet struggles to earn his reputation. Giblet lost his last name when he killed his father and mother. He knew if he didn't keep it that his formal title of whitewash would return, and he would perhaps share the fate of his mother and father. He does not think of the future or past anymore though, his ruthless and evil mind have made him only focus on the present, of what he is doing. His racism towards the other races grew as he realized they corrupted his mother. His hate against the elves, humans, and dwarves burn in his eyes like a wild fire.
Ambitions for the Future: To learn more skills, defeat his enemies, challenge a clan leader and begin his overtaking (I know this won't happen but my character is selfish/arrogant so he thinks he could do so)
Personality: Very aggressive, somewhat strategic, ferocious, and tribal. He cares not for the well-being of other orcs or allies but for himself. This being said he is arrogant and selfish. Also can be persuaded very easily.
Skills:Great at fighting, Dedicated, strong, great climber, energetic.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
A tall dark green orc with 2 big tusks, very muscular and tribal. He has a scar over one of his eyes and relies on his other senses to detect trouble. Wears a loincloth and has 2 big hands.

[b]1. You are roaming the mighty capital of the War Nation Of Uruks, as you near the Arena you spot an Orc, wearing what seems to be human garbs as he looks at you he smiles and say out loud in common not in blah “Come friend let me teach you of civilization and break your mind from this orcish savagery!”, how do you react?[/b]
Answer: Giblet being the tribal and ferocious orc he is, charges him. Giblet smashes him to the wall and challenges him. If the other orc is strong, he will plot something to get rid of him before the fight. If weak, he will publicly humiliate him and state him whitewash. Giblet uses his strength to brutally murder the orc in the arena, as a reward he demands a blade and takes the head.
[b]2. As you are watching an Arena fight between two Orcs, the Goj of Krug walks towards the Arena, and shouts “Mi brudderz da Feztivel ob Krug iz coummeh! We needz zacrifizez tu zummun da Zpirit ob Krug un diz uzg, go gadder da Warbandz nd raid da landz nd bring mi buck zacrifizez, twiggy nd pinky dat we kan zlauhater upun da alter ob Krug nuw go mi Brudderz!” How do you react to this?[/b]
Answer: Giblet smiles looking at the Goj of Krug and roars loudly, he also makes more noise with his feet and hands. He hopes to rally the orcs. Giblet gathers a few strong people and heads to the elven settlements knowing they are the least violent. He brings a few fire starters with him and sets a few building aflame hoping to herd the elves to a trap where the other orcs ambush them and capture them. Knowing that the neighboring humans might hear about it from some stray elves he decides to mask the orc's faces. He returns with 1 less captive, hiding them in his home. He gives them to the Goj and nods his thanks for giving him the chance to fight. He then releases the 1 surviving captive and chases him for fun. Finally, he pays a visit to the Goj and asks if he had done good.
[b]3. As you are travelling in the barren Orcish deserts you come across a quiet oasis. Beside it sits a small tent where a young orc is preparing a meal of roasted halfling. He calls you over, offering you to join in with his meal. What does your character do?[/b]
Answer: Giblet walks in and waits till the meal is down being prepared. He then smiles gleefully and grabs the younger orc by the throat. He drags the orc a little bit aways and smashes his head against something (whether it be a tree, rock, or the rock/dirt ground repeatedly) knocking the orc out, he returns to feast on the halfling and eats it savagely. He waits for the other orc to return and smiles as he walks out with the bones in hand and a full stomach. He brags about the meal to the younger orc.

[b]Definitions[/b] In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Role-playing is jumping into a setting and scenario and determining your own fate, journey, and life by your actions as if in real life.
Meta-gaming: Meta-gaming is acting for another character like say for example: kabini01 says *bob jumps off cliff. This is acting for another player, a.k.a. meta-gaming, also telling people info out of game and that person using that info. But, you can't do this because the person using the info's character won't know and if he/she acts like he/she does this is also meta-gaming.
Power-emoting: power-emoting is when someone makes an action or statement that the player the action is inflicted upon has no say in what has happened. For instance: kabini01 says: * kabini01 pushes bob off of a cliff and he dies. this is power-emoting because bob has no say in what has just happened.

Full Name: Aurelia Janice Fluer (pronounced (uh-rell-ee-uh) (jayn-is) (floo-er)
Current Age: 51 (elf years)

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): when Aurelia was young(er) she had lived in a great oak tree that had grown amazingly with the care of her parents. She had loved the forest and always would. One day Aurelia's parents noticed her love of adventure and passion for the woods and animals and the plants. "Aurelia!" her mother had called, "I think we can agree that you are old enough to adventure, explore, and see the world for yourself." "You mean I can go? to see and learn and do, well, EVERYTHING?" "Yes," her mother cooed, "now go get yourself packed up and you may go!" Aurelia had brought her bow along in case of danger, she was much better with a bow than any other weapon. Aurelia enjoys learning from absolutely everything, her years in the woods had taught her the joys of discovery.
She has part-taken in a few battles, one she lost her pet wolves to. She lives a hard life on the road, yet when she is in her newly built giant oak tree her life is full of animals and peace. She raised her own animals on her own farm in her own land. All was peaceful. When her land was destroyed by foreign invaders she fought fiercely with her bow and sword, which she found she was no good with. The invaders had just left mid battle, and when they did, Aurelia's land was burnt, destroyed, ruined. Dead. She has now traveled long and far to reach the tree of Asulon and remain refugee and defender whilst starting her new farm and living in peace once more. Peace is what she seeks but she knows deep down she wants revenge on the undead army for her home. She is willing to fight when battle arouses but when none is near peace and friendship is all she desires.

Aurelia doesn't mind teaming with people, even if they have no clue of experience. She loves to help wherever she travels making her less of an enemy to strangers. She can sing beautifully and is an amazing problem solver. When you cross paths with Aurelia remember, every rose has its thorns, if you are good to Aurelia she will be good to you. Harm her, she will defend what is rightfully hers.

____
[b]1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?[/b]
Answer: I remind the elders that elven children are rare and a blessing, that you don't see many often, and that they were once children as well. I would also try reasoning with the group and the child to understand why they were doing this and what was really happening, so I could learn a little something from the encounter.
[b]2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: I would pick up the gold coins for the man and help him back up, possibly helping him to where he is going and make a new friend that could easily teach me lots through stories. I would let him know also, that if he is ever again in a time of need he could let me know and i would help.
[b]3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).[/b]
Answer: i would haggle over a bow made of fine material and arrows with it. "starting price for the bow 24$ arrows, 2 for 1$" i would take the price the tradesman offers and meet in the middle between his price and mine. if he is aggressive i will sneak and as we argue, raise my price in hopes he will lower his during his blind confusion.

Full Name: Fark Dilii
Current Age: 308
Sub-race (if any): Wood Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Ambitions for the Future:
Fark was raised as any other Wood elf would be. I took his parents decades to have him. Finally, one faithful day Fark was born. He was a shy boy when he was young. He wouldn’t play much with the other few wood elf children his age. He would only practice archery at his parents’ home. Thus, he became a very good shot.
Whenever Fark did play with other children, Fark would be teased for his brown hair. All the other wood elves would have such nice hair, but poor Fark had short brown hair. When he came home in tears, his mother asked him why he was so upset. Fark replied with he hated his hair, and everyone would make fun of him. His mother told him, “The best fruit, is not the color of the skin, but the intensity, and flavor within.”
When Fark was 104 years old, His father started to become very violent. He would be found at the bar at times, so Fark and his mother spent most of the time together. His mother and Fark became very close. Every night before he went to sleep, his mom would tell him of stories, of Wood elves, and trees.
One night However, Fark’s father came home very drunk. Fark’s mother yelled at him for never being home with her or his son. Fark was lying in his bed trying to sleep over the yelling. Then suddenly all he heard was his mother screaming. Fark jumped up, and ran to the kitchen only to see his intoxicated father looking at the bloody dagger in his mother’s limp body.
Fark ran out of his home screaming for help. The neighbors started to run out of their home sto see what’s wrong. When they saw Fark’s father come out with a bloody dagger, The men talked Fark’s father to the ground.
The next day Fark’s father was sentenced to execution. Fark was distraught at both his parents gone. When the blade came down on Fark’s father’s head, Fark just sat on the ground crying. As everyone in the crowed started to head home, Fark stayed behind just watching them clean up his father’s body. Fark soon felt a warm hand on his shoulder. It was his grandpa.
Fark’s Grandfather took him in after the incident. On the first night at his grandpa’s home, Fark made a promise to himself; He wanted to never let something like this happen to anyone else. Good or bad, No child should lose both their parents.
As the years went by at his grandpa’s home, He taught him the art of Archery. He showed Fark tricks and tips about the perspective of your target. He also made sure Fark had a good education. He would make Fark read one book every day, or he wouldn’t get supper. Fark’s grandpa was an old man, 1082 In fact. He was very wise, yet strong. He taught Fark with a firm hand, yet with a soft touch. Fark began to think of his grandpa as his father.
One day, for his grandpa’s birthday, Fark wanted to catch a wild pig and cook it for his grandfather’s dinner. Fark went into the forest around noon. He told his grandfather he was going to fetch some wine for his birthday. Secretly however, Fark had already got a barrel from the local tavern. As fark head into the forest with his trusty bow, He encountered a armed skeleton! Fark’s eyes lit up and he darted behind a tree. He was sure the skeleton didn’t see him. Trying to think, he remembered his grandfather’s lesson on ranged combat. “Always head for the higher ground” He would say. “It gives an advantage of being unseen and you don’t have to worry about arrow drop as much. Fark shimmied his way up an oak, and hid in the branches. Fark Notched his arrow on his bow, Pulled back, Fark held his breath, He felt as if time itself slowed down. He released the arrow and saw it fly through the skeleton right temple. He watched as its lifeless body fell to the ground. Fark rushed over to the body to see as if it was dead. He was relieved to know he wouldn’t have to shoot it again. Fark prayed to his fore father Malin, and god for forgiveness on this poor soul. As Fark looked up he saw a unsuspecting pig drinking from a river. He quickly notched his bow and took an easy shoot at the back of the pig’s head. He put the pig in his hunting sack, and dragged it back home.
When Fark returned home, His grandfather scolded him.
“Never lie to me Fark! This is how you get killed!”
“Please forgive me grandfather.” Fark said bowing his head.
“I will but remember, the one whom lies to the rest, is the one who will soon be laid to rest.” Fark’s Grandfather said with a sharp voice.
They ate well that night, eating the whole pig. Fark went to sleep that night making another promise, that he would never lie to anyone, or thing.
By the time Fark reached 200 years old, His grandfather became ill.
“Fark, I want you to know, I always thought of you as my son.” He said lying in his death bed.
“I will Grandfather, I always will.” Fark said with tears in his eyes holding his hand.
“then my most dear Fark, I wish you a good life.” His grandpa says, drawing his last breath.
Fark began his adventure the next day. He wanted to see the world, and meet its people, Fark wished to find not fame, or fortune, just the wisdom and peace of the world. He also strived to stop any evil he could.
A good hundred years later he came across a wagon on fire. He rushed to it, only to find a large crater. He then heard a scream. He rushed into the direction of the scream to see two skeletons firing arrows at a man as he ran. One arrow hit him in the back of the kneecap and he collapsed to the ground. Fark quickly climbed a tree, Looked down on the skeletons going in for the kill, and fired two fast shots at the monsters. He was too late however one of the monsters already fired a arrow into the skull of the man. As the monsters collapsed Fark rushed to the man. He lay by his side, and prayed for his soul to be blessed. He buried the body and remembered that day forever, the day that he couldn’t save someone, and they were lost to evil.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: I approach them as a responsible adult would.
“What’s going on?” I would ask in a stern voice.
“Nothing mister!” One of the elves would pipe up in surprise.
“We were just joking around, that’s all, I swear!” Another older elf said in concern.
“Run off you boys.” I say as I watch them leave with their heads down.
I kneel down to the sniffling young elf and give him some advice. ”Whatever someone says, or does, don’t ever forget that, Keep it in your heart, use it as your motivation. Let it remain with you, and inspire you.”
“Thanks mister” The young elf says forcing a smile.
“No go run off!” I say in a joking matter.
As I continue you on my way, I fell as if I felt a side of me I never have felt. I Begin to think of my childhood, and am glad that I am doing what I’m doing, and don’t regret anything I have said or done.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?
Answer:
I rush to his side, retrieve his stick and help him on his feet. I would offer him to walk him to the next town over. If he declines I offer myself as an escort to his location. I would follow him to the farthest lands just to make sure he is safe. If he offers any reward I would decline it.
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer:
I would walk over, and look at his wares in silence. If I see something that catches my eye, I’ll ask him how much for it. If it’s anything I can’t afford or have I would wish him a good day and carry on my way.
If I do however see something I desire, such as some more arrows or a new bow. I’ll give him my dead price.
“I’ll give you two hundred minas for the new bow, and 10 minas for the set of arrows, take it or leave it.” Fark said staring into the merchant’s eyes.
“How does 250 minas for the bow sound?” The merchant replied with a smirk
“I said two hundred for the bow; I won’t go any higher than that” I say with a straight face.
“Deal.” The merchant says with a smile.
“Here” I say dropping two hundred and ten minas in his hand.
“Have a good day sir!” The merchant says waving goodbye.
“Also good merchant, I suggest you head that way to the nearest town.” I say pointing to the west.

Full Name: Arthas Mytheral
Current Age: Young adult (22ish in elven)
Sub-race (if any): High Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Arthas was raised from a upper-middle class family. He studied hard in school and got good marks. He was popular and sporty. He liked adventuring and thrills. He traveled to learn about the world and spoke to many people on the road. He was never gone long, and returned to helphelped his family business. He was a hard working teenager and he would sweat profusely while he worked regardless of the climate. He began to take an interest in the jewels of the high class families and started learning how to smelt and metalwork so he could make himself gold chains and 4 finger rings. Soon he had swagged himself out. Even his fishing rod was jewel encrusted due to the enormous amounts of treasures he fished up during his fishing training sessions and later reworked it all into jewelry.
Ambitions for the Future: To own all of the diamonds and gold which is laying at the bottom of the sea (mcmmo reference). To look like a million bucks and feel like it too.

Personality: passive-aggressively competitive in a way he tries to make people not notice, suave, smooth talking, and gentle with the ladies. Not at all a fan of fowl smells if they are not produced from smelting or metal-working. This means most other races are slightly off-putting to the nose.

____
1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: I ask "what is going on here". They explain themselves. I ask them if they wouldn't mind leaving him alone if he hasn't done anything wrong other than being smaller than them. If they agree you thank them and watch them off, and then escort the young one home. If they wish to make an issue out of it, I would probably just back off. I can't get my face broken just cus some little kid can't defend himself. While I would stick up for him to some extent, theres a point where several people realize they can overpower 1 fisherman/jewery maker and a little kid. I try to avoid crossing that point.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. Hecollapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there,defenseless - what do you do?
Answer: I would help him up first, and make sure he's ok then I'd help him put his coins back in his bag and make sure he gets where he's trying to go safetly. I would also advise him to protect those coins because if I was a little more needy I might very well have taken them from him because of --insert slightly sob-story like tale-- in hopes he gives me at least one coin from his pouch as payment for helping him. *insert chuckle to indicate i am only kidding about the would have taken them from you bit, then sigh as though I wish I had taken a few coins as i was helping the old man up*
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer:Hi there dealer. May I browse your goods? I am looking for some cooked fish. You see I am on a fishermans diet and wish to obtain something I can eat which is seafood. "Well we've got cooked fish right here. How many do ya need? we sell them at 6 coins each". Oh 6 coins each? that's rather steep. Per chance I could buy several at once and get a discount... Lets say 32 fish at 4 each? "Hows about 64 at 4 each". Well I suppose I have room in my bag for food which conveniently never spoils. Sure lets do that price. "Delighted. open ur bag and toss me the coins". Here you are sir. don't spend them all in one place you here? hah! I'm off on my travels sir. I hope to catch some raw fish of my own so I might have to continue to buy food from others, not that yours won't be terrific i can only assume based upon the smell. Thanks for the goods and your time sir. have a nice day! "You too. and good luck with those fish. i know I struggled a lot".

Full Name: Castien Rission
Current Age: 215
Sub-race (if any): Woof Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Castien Rission's parents moved to the new realm of anthos very early as to settle down and start a nice family after adventuring around the realms with each other. Finding a nice small farm a day's walk from Leumalin, they started there family with two girls, Airion, the oldest, and Kiirion. A few decades apart they lived happily with their parents, working the farm. Not feeling complete, Castien was born and the family became whole.
Castien grew up running around the fields and walking with his dad to Leumalin to sell the goods of their farm, although most of the time he hid behind his father scared of all the new strangers coming up to them. As he got older, he didn't talk much as he'd rather listen to the stories of his parents adventures and listen to the sounds of the nearby forests full of animals running around. Once the work was done for the day, many times he took the dogs to the forest and explored the trees and wildlife that made him feel safe and at home.
Not participating the great hunt or the following feast, they would have a small meal and play some games. One time an orc came by, stomping through their fields. Not knowing what to do he ran to his room, grabbed his bow, launched an arrow out the window and it stuck right through the orc's foot. From that day on, he never had a good outlook on the orcs, but his father did start teaching him to shoot arrows, day after day, he would bring the bow to the woods and shoot at large strones.
With a quiet and peaceful life, he was very happy as he never wanted to be a strong hero that everyone counted on, or a great politician who worked the government. He'd rather stay in the country with his family. Not many people came around the farm for it being so far away, but every once in awhile an adventurer would pass by, or even a sentinel or two. He did make one friend, a human girl by the name of Olivia, from the Holy Oren Empire. She lived out in the country with her family too, but she was growing much faster than Castien. Castien was saddended by this because he knew he wouldn't be with her forever. They would adventure around the forest together, but one day she brought a sentinel with her who she hung all over. She introduced him and they got married, Castien was invited to the wedding but he wasn't allowed to go. He never got to see Olivia again but he soon pushed her out of her mind with the animals.
He watched all of his sisters move out and to the city of leumalin and he visited their houses among the tree tops and across the hanging bridges. He toured the city hardly talking and wanting to go back to his farm, which he did once the day was over. Castien just turned 215 and his parents gave him money and sent him to leumalin to find a job, a home, and a life of his own. He has now arrived and new to the city. Shy yet brave. He must man up and take control of his life...
Ambitions for the Future: Woud like to own a small shop and farm to make money and live a small, happy, peaceful life.
Personality: Very shy but can be very determined on the things he believes. Does not really give full trust to people until he really knows that person. Once you've won him over he can be a really nice and funny guy. He's also very smart and very good at problem solving and making quick descisions.
Skills: Very good farmer and great archer. Good builder and very good problem solver, aswell as a quick thinker. Finally, very athletic, fast, and strong from working on a farm his whole life.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Dark complected like many wood elves, with natural, dirty blonde hair. Big green eyes like on an excited little puppy and short in stature, around 4'6''. Very thin aswell not wanting to waste the food he has.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: None more than started above.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: After hearing the noise of whispers and snickers, I peak around the trunk of a large elven tree to see what I figured, a group of elves mocking a young elven child. Being shy, I looks for anyway to possibly solve the problem without being involved. Just then, I notice a pair of sentinels walking down towards the market, away from me. I frantically chase them down yelling, "sentinels! Please, wait!" In which I finally catch up to them. "There's a group of elves back there, picking, on a young child. Please do something, the young child is scared and afraid," I say panting. "You better not be making this up, we've got other things to do," says the guards looking at me annoyed. I lead the suspicious guards back to where the problem was happening. "Hey!" one sentinel yells leading the elves to start running. I watch the sentinels disappear into the thick vines after the elves. As I turn to walk away, I notice the little boy sitting down and crying. I look at him for a bit deciding what I should do. I then walk up to him and squat down next to him. "What's wrong boy? The sentinels are going to get those bad kids for you." I say trying to cheer him up. "They scared me and I didn't know what to do," the child says softly with a quiet whimper. "Well theres no need to be scared now, how about I walk you back to your house and get you some candy on the way?" He jumps up with a big smile on his face and I realize a smile appeared on my face aswell. "Thank you!" he says as we walk away.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?
Answer: I notice the elderly man on the ground and cautiously walk over to him as to not scare him. "You ok sir?" I say, hoping for a good answer. "Oh, yes, I just fell again, I'm getting pretty clumsy at my age I'll tell you that," laughs the old man."Well you need some help up?" I ask as I stretch out a hand. "Why thank you son," the man says as he grabs my hand. Once the elderly man is back on his feet, I bend down to pick up the spilled coins and notice his pouc has been ripped. "Aw, sir, looks like your pouch ripped. Do you have anything else to carry the coins?" I say trying to not make him sad. "Oh no, that's fine my boy. My wife has plenty more at home. This happens a lot I'll tell you!" I pick the coins up one by one and hold them in my open palm for him to take. He takes all but one coin and I say "Sir! You forgot a coin." He looks over at me with a grin on his face, "You keep it and buy yourself something nice!" A smile appears on my face, "Thank you sir!" I say as I run off towards the market.
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer: As I listen to the man talk of the things his truck has, one item catches my eye: Waterberry seeds. "Sir! How much do you want them waterberry seeds for?" I interupt as a grin grows on his face. "How much you willing to pay?" Remembering to save some money, I hide a few coins in the bottom of my pocket and answer, "Well I don't have much on me, only a lil' 25 mina." "Oh my! That won't get you much but 3 seeds!" He's says looking at the coins in my hand greedily. "That's fine by me! I'll take 'em!" I say as I hand him the money and he returns his hand with the seeds. I notice how much I've been ripped off but i decide not to bring it up. "Now be gone empty hands" he replies as he gets ready for another victim to be conned in his plan. "Ok, looks like I don't have any more money that I just found." I say as I run off quickly.

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Acting out a part you aren’t, such as an elf, orc, or other mythical creatures. Usually involves a made-up character that you ‘roleplay’ as.
Meta-gaming: When you know something that you haven’t roleplayed out. For example, say Kit the human was going to betray Mutty the orc, but Mutty the orc knew he was going to kill him. So Mutty killed Kit.
Power-emoting: Something that you say happens but really doesn’t such as *Kashe stabs Wutang* *Wutang dodges Kashe* Greatly enhances the roleplaying experience. Can also be used by doing the /me command in minecraft.

In these hard times, Kashe's mother resorted to prostitution for the extra money. But there was one thing that changed all of these things, a young boy named Matheus.
It was a stormy night when Kashe was sitting on the streets, not doing anything. Just thinking, thinking about his family, and life. Then a boy about his age walked past him, the boy stared at Kashe for a few moments and not long after said curiously, “Hey, are you hungry?”
Kashe nodded almost immediately, the boy handed him a loaf of bread. Matheus sat down next to Kashe and started up a conversation.
“So what’s your name?”
With his mouth full of bread Kashe replied, “Kashe… Kashe Qu.”
“Well Kashe Qu, it’s awfully cold tonight how about you come by my place for the night?”
Kashe looked up at Matheus with joyful eyes. From that day on, Kashe and Matheus were best friends.
Kashe and Matheus grew together like brothers, they did everything together. Kashe and Matheus were looking forward to one particular thing, Matheus’ birthday party. 6 months later, it was Matheus’ birthday party. Kashe and Matheus were having the time of their lives, lots of friends were over and even some adults. Matheus’ mother told Kashe and Matheus to fetch some wine and water for the guests. When they came back everything was wrong. They walked into the door, everyone was dead. Blood was all over the place. Matheus knelt down next to his parents and began weeping. Kashe put an arm around him. Matheus then said.
“Kashe… lets make a promise”
Kashe replied “A promise…? What kind of promise?”
“A promise that when we meet again we will both be strong… so none of these things will ever happen, and when they do… we’ll be strong about it.
Kashe begin to slowly cry. Realizing his parents were dead as well. He walked towards them. Then
replied saying,
“When we meet again? What do you mean when we meet again? I will always be with you.”
“For now, we go our separate ways” Matheus chokes, “And try our best to fulfill our promises. Besides if I have you I won’t be able to become strong.”
Kashe felt an ache in his heart. So great he couldn’t bear it, he began to weep, so loud the whole
city could hear it. But finally after a few minutes of crying. He got up, and embraced Matheus, he then walked away turned back. Matheus waved back, bright red cheeks, and tear eyes. And shouted, “Farewell brother!”
Kashe was impacted by this forever. Kashe was put into foster care, he jumped from place to place quickly due to his lack of social skills. Finally when he was 12 he was taken in by his master. Vex Tung, trained heavily with Axes and stealth. Vex taught Kashe many things about these two war elements. Vex Tung died when Kashe was 16, he left Kashe all of his belongings and his house.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] Meeting up with his childhood friend Matheus, and to fulfill his promise with him, to be strong no matter what happens. Maybe even join a knighthood, or create one.’
Personality:[/b] You could say Kashe isn’t the brightest person to be around, not having his parents around for half of his life has definitely had a large impact on him. He hasn’t learned most of life’s lessons, and isn’t the best with social skills. Although troubled in social skills he’s great working with himself or people he has been close with for a long time.
Skills:[/b] Kashe is greatly skilled in the arts of the Ax. Being taught by Vex Tung greatly increased his
skill. Kashe is very skilled at being stealthy as well. He has forbidden himself to pickpocket or steal, but it does come in handy.
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b]
Kashe is rather a strange person, he doesn’t respect your privacy, is blunt, and is just
different to be around. He might be mean at first, you just need to get to know
him.
Open-Response-Questions
Each question in this section must be
answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
___
1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?
Answer: I sprint towards the guards, and tell them about the man.
Kashe: “Excuse me guards, but do you see that man in the black?”
Guards: *Nods*
Kashe: “I believe he’s trying to assassinate the emperor, or anyone.”
Guards: “Civilian, we’ll take care of this. Thank you for the information.”
Kashe then walks away and looks back towards the black figure. The guards are running his way. The black figure also begins running. Kashe decides to disobey the guards orders and also try chasing him down. But fortunately the guards are able to take down the black figure. The black figure takes out a knife and stabs one of the guards. The other guard jumps back and gets his longsword out. He shouts Guard: “By the name of the Empire, you are under arrest!”
The Black Figure then stabs toward the guard but the guard easily dodges, and cuts his arm off.
2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron ax, how do you react? (I changed it to an ax to make it fit my roleplaying
character, I hope that’s okay)
Answer: I run towards the old man, hoping to aid him in this great time of need. As I near the bandits back I shout at them,
“Filthy bandits, stealing from an old man are we?”
“Easy pickings.”
“You’re done stealing from this old man.”
I take my ax out and hold it at battle stance, ready for anything to happen. The two bandits began attacking me, and it takes all of my strength to stop them. Just as Kashe can’t hold out any long the two bandits are struck down by the old man.
“Thank you for the help adventurer.”
Kashe walks away without a word.
3. You are standing within the
mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of
general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).
Kashe: “How much for the Diamond Ax?”
Merchant: “300 Minas.”
Kashe: “I’ll take it for 150.”
Merchant: “That’s nearly half off!?!”
Kashe: “But I only have 150 Minas”
Merchant: “But that cost me 200 Minas to make! I’d be losing 50 Minas me boy.”
Kashe: “If you want my business you’ll let me buy it for 150 Minas.”
Merchant: “Fine, 150 Minas, but this is the only deal I’m making you!”

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing:I think its when you usually pertend to be someone who your really not, also to follow a story within your setting,kind of like a play, and usually where you write a story as you role-play, and follow what charecterstics your charecter has.
Meta-gaming:Its basically knowing things that your rp charecter is NOT suposed to know in other words it kind of like cheating, and can greatly affect the choices the person makes, and is usually OOC, Example : If Someone has a conversation in a home that has closed doors, but you can still see what they say in chat. You shouldn't know this but you can see it.
Power-emoting:Its usually a forced action/emote where its usually used to be more dominant against a player like for example player 1 stabs player 2, and usually can make impossible things in game possible, like a player can say *Kills everyone using a stick* even though its impossible.

Full Name:Matheus Alvarez
Current Age:18
Sub-race (if any):none
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Summary:
He was originaly born in abesi He had a rather wealthy family and His parents died when he was just 10 due to being caught up in a tragedy, (read about it later), after the tragic death of his parents, he was taken in by a person that resembles his personality at this moment, barbaric , agressive and odly loves children and woman and also is very heroic.
He was a man with full diamond armor with light skin and a decent amount of muscles wielding a diamond sword, his name was Herven and Matheus has trained with him for years. before the death of his parents he used to have plenty of friends But unfortantely the way his parents died was also how his friends died except Kashe Qu, it was his birthday everyone was at his house celebreating it,his parents told him and his best friend(kashe qu) to fetch some water and wine for the guests but as he was outside gathering water and getting wine in the shed, the house was completly burnt to ashes witheveryone in it and the family's heirloom, the Immortal Slayer was gone along with the house and people in the house, it was a very powerful diamond sword(sharp 5 and other enchants).
So only Matheus and his best friend survived, and as they walk past the crumbles of the house matheus weeps and crys while his best friend pats his back, after that day he promised he would never cry again. After this tragic event and after being taken in by herven as his student, he became a brave strong young man who never runs away, and fights head on with whats standing in his way.
The story of how Matheus met kashe:
It was a stormy night as 10 year old matheus strolled down the streets to get back home he noticed a boy around his age in a dark alley matheus walked up to him and said "Hey are you hungry?" The boy noded and Matheus handed him a loaf of bread that was in his bag and asked"So whats your name?" the boy replied with the bread stuffed in his mouth "My name is kashe, Kashe Qu". Matheus then said"Well its rather cold tonight how about you come by my place you can stay there for the night if you want."Kashe looked up at him with eyes full of happiness, and from that day on he became his best friend.
The tragedy:
As Matheus and Kashe were gathering the water and wine Matheus spotted a dark clothed figuire walking past his house, all the suddenly Matheus had a chill go down his spine he dosen't know what it was until this day, Kashe then asked "Whats wrong Matheus you seem stressed, its your birthday you should celebrate it." Matheus then said"Nothing i guess im just stressed today for some random reason thats all".Then as Matheus and Kashe went inside the shed after around 10 seconds of being in the shed they both heard a loud crackling noise and the sound of people screaming, Matheus asked "What was that
noise?" Kashe and Matheus stormed out of the shed only to find a medium house fire on his house and the dark figuire crouched, with flint and steel in his hands. Matheus and Kashe were desperately trying to vanguish the fire however despite there efforts the house fire grew larger and larger, only to get a glimpse of his mother triyng to get out of the house but then being crushed by the crumbles of the house. Matheus rushed to his mother took her by the hand, and his mother muttered out her last words "Be strong Matheus even in situations like this". He then kneeled before the crumbles of the house in despair.
The after math of the tragic death of his parents:
Matheus looked down at the dead parents and guests and weeped and cried,then it started to rain Kashe Qu put his hand on Matheus's shoulder, then Matheus said "Kashe lets make a promise." Kashe replied "A promise? what kind of promise." Matheus replied "A promise, that when we meet again we will both be strong, so none of these things will ever happened again, and when they do we will be strong about it" Matheus wiped the tears off his eyes, then kashe said "When we meet again? What do you mean when we meet again i will always be with you"
Matheus then said "For now lets go our seperate ways and try our best to fufill our promise, besides if i have you i won't be able to become strong" Kashe felt an ache in his heart but Kashe was also a bright boy so he understood what he meant, if they were to be together they would rely on each other to much.One week has passed after that day and matheus is wandering around the streets until he was being mugged by bandits but then out of nowhere a person with light skin, blue eyes came up and defeated the bandits without a sweat.
he had a full set of diamond armor and diamond sword The man said "Are you ok young one?" he looked at the man with hopeful eyes noticing if he trained with that man, he would be strong, he quickly then said and bowed "Please sir! Take me on as your apprentice" the man said "mmhm apprentice you say? I don't know boy i only train man not kids" matheus still bowed and said in a pleading voice "Please?" the man as described before despite his personality was a nice man with a soft spot for children and women, he then replied "Alright fine, whats your name kid?" Matheus stopped bowing and said "Matheus Alvarez, and what is your name?" the man replied "Herven, pleasure to meet ya!" they then shook hands and the training begun...
Matheus trained with Mostly swordsmanship and a little bit with axes along with other vigorous training, its been 8 years since that tragic event, and he hopes to meet up with his friend Kashe Qu once again...

Full Name: Ankou Laoch
Current Age: 121
Sub-race (if any): Wood Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Ankou was the whole reason that his father and mother lived it had taken them so long to final have a child and when they did they vowed to do everything to make his life the best possible. They loved him so much as well as he loved them. By trying to make his life the best possible they had also unwittingly made him secluded from others by over protecting him. However when Ankou turned 12 his father gave him his very first bow which had been passed down from generation to generation in his family. Ankou had an inst connection with the bow which he felt was an extension of himself even though he wasn’t the best shot at the beginning.
This would lead to the beginning of the troubles in Ankou’s life. When he would be seen shooting his bow by the other kids they would make fun of him and even say he wasn’t even an elf since he couldn’t hit anything that he wanted to. Eventually his father became aware of this problem and when he tried to teach Ankou how to shoot he made very little progress. After a year of intense training with his father he was hardly any better than before. This caused his father to become embarrassed of his sun and also angry at himself for failing as a father. This inner anger would cause Ankou’s mother to leave his father and take him with her.
Three years later Ankou had finally became a decent shot but was still far behind the others that where his age. One day he was on the way to visit his father when he came across the kids who had bullied him all those years ago when he had absolutely no accuracy with his bow. They challenged him to a contest and letting his pride get the best of him he entered the contest and lost miserably. The kids began to tell him he was never going to be able to shoot and that he was a disgrace to the elf race as a whole. He threw down his bow and swore to never pick up another bow. When he finally reached his father’s he explained what had happened with tears in his eyes he was hoping his father would comfort him about what had happened. Instead the complete opposite had happened with a tear rolling down his father’s face he said I’m sorry that I failed son I was unable to shape you into the man that you need to be. When his father said this Ankou turned and ran out the door and for as long as he could and as fast as he could. Ankou became lost in the dense forest that he had been running in and it was four days before the search party found him. On the third night while he was sleeping he had flashbacks of everyone telling him what he couldn’t do and how he was terrible with a bow and just before he woke he saw his father’s face with that tear rolling down it and the disappointment in his eyes. He then awoke and started to walk when he stumbled into the search party which included his mother. She tightly embraced him enough to squeeze the life out of him. When they returned home things went on as normal but at night he would keep having the nightmare of everyone telling him he was a failure and his dads face at the end just right before he woke. After three weeks of this he decided to prove everyone wrong and master the bow. He began training in secluded spots all over as not to be seen and bullied. One day when he arrived to his favorite spot which was near a water fall he noticed that someone was sitting on a rock near where he shoots as if they where waiting. When he turned around the man on the rock said wait a minute I’m here to help you. Ankou walked into the opening and began to talk to the man. This man’s name turned out to be Ambisagrus. After training with him for four years they had grown really close as well as Ambisagrus and Ankou’s mother had fallen in love. At the age of Nineteen Ankou had nearly mastered the bow when his mothers birthday came around Ambisagrus suggested the two of them go hunt for a feast for his mother. While they where tracking a boar they heard a screaming in the distance so they decided to check it out. When they came to the edge of a clearing they saw a small farm house on fire Ambisagrus told Ankou to wait at the tree line and watch out for anything. As Ambisagrus dashed towards the house a group of bandits moved in on Ambisagrus when he came close to the house. Ankou tried to shoot at them but he was far out of his range so he dashed from the trees scream to Ambisagrus but he couldn’t hear Ankou’s screams over the roar of the fire. When Ankou came into range he started firing at the bandits by the time he had finally hit one they had killed Ambisagrus and moved their aggression to him. When they caught Ankou they beat him inches from death when a group of other in the area came and scared them off. Ankou woke up from a two year coma to find his mother sitting next to him; she was a mess from sitting at the edge of the bed for the past two years. When he woke his mother embraced him and whispered I love you to him. She then got up and walked out the door and ran to the cliff that was near there house and hurled herself of the edge. Ankou stricken with grief returned home and found a note that was left by his mother and it described how that now that he was awake and okay she had no more purpose in life and that she was so heart broken she couldn’t go on. The one thing that stuck with him is the quote that she put at the end which was “Place your hand over your feel that? That’s called purpose you’re alive for a reason. Don’t give up.” Ankou went to his fathers and told him that he had become a man and was going to prove everyone that ever doubted him especially his father wrong.
Ankou then vanished and traveled the world for a century and returned back to his home with a new found purpose.
Ambitions for the Future:
While traveling the world Ankou had incountered many evils and made a pact to his mother, Ambisagrus and himself that he would do whatever he possibly could to stop these things that he had witnessed from happening to others and especially the people he would grow to love.
Personality:
Not a social butterfly but when he speaks people listen because it is usually something that is important to the conversation. Also very knowledgeable from the things that he had encountered while on his travels.
Skills:
Archery, battle tactics, stealth and talking to others.

[b]Open-Response-Questions[/b]
[b]1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?[/b]
Answer: I would confront them in a calm and authoritative way. I would ask them what is going on and when they tried to cover up what they had been doing and when they finished telling me I would tell them to go home and that they should be ashamed. I would make sure nothing was wrong with the boy and tell him the quote my mother had told me in that letter and tell him that there is nothing he can’t do and to run along and continue on to where I was going.
[b]2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?[/b]
[b] [/b]Answer: I quickly help him up and give him his stick as well as his gold that had scattered on the ground. I would tell him that I will help him to the nearest inn or town. If he accepted I would walk him there and if he offered any payment I would decline it. However if he declined my offer I would watch him from a distance until he got to his next location just to be sure nothing bad happens to him.
[b]3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).[/b]
Answer: I walk over to the carriage and begin to inspect what he had to offer. If there was anything that caught my eye such as some food, a new bow or some arrows I would try haggling with him. I would try and get him to make a bundle package for what I wanted for example:
“I’ll give you 175 minas for the bow, 15 minas for the arrows and 5 for some of the food.” Having a stern look on my face.
“How about 210 for the bow, 20 for the arrows and 10 for the food.” With a hint of cockiness in his voice.
“I’ll go 220 for all of it and that’s my final offer.”
The merchant smiles and says “You got yourself a deal.”
I say “Thanks and be careful out there the worlds crazy” with a smile on my face. And we part ways.

In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character:
Full Name: Faiz Kharadeen
Current Age: 21
Sub-race (if any): None.
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): "Well, lets start out with the basics shall we? My name is Faiz Kharadeen, I am part of a small family, living a normal average life. I have a father, a mother, and two younger brothers. We are humble worshipers of God. We live within the city of Kingston, since my father is but a humble merchant. " (Oh and if you were wondering what Faiz meant if meant anything at all, its Hero.)
" In my younger years, I was taught by my uncle how to use a sword and bow. He taught me the arts of stealth , secrecy, and strength. You might even say he taught me the ways of the assassin.. *wink* Even though he was just a Corporal in the army, he knew what he was doing. It's because of him that I am a stronger man. Before his untimely death due to the war, he told me to continue to follow my dreams, to help those in need when needed, something he couldn't do due to the restrictions of the army. I later soon found his journal, which told of how he was a fond believer of peace, which motivated me greatly, even though it was a bit ironic."
"My family lived a happy life, but we weren't apart of the middle or upper class. Even though we were fairly poor, my father taught me to be generous and kind to others, because one day they'll be kind and generous to you. I noticed when I was young there are many hard ships and troubles people had to face, especially the poor. I felt bad, I wish I could change everything where everyone was happy, and so once I reached the age of 20, that is when I realized what I want to do. Not inherit my fathers business, but to help others in their quest for happiness and peace. If we can live in a world of peace, think of everything we could accomplish together! We can feed the hungry and the poor, we can advance our ways of technology and make life easier upon us, we can have less deaths upon the innocent, we can truly have happiness. But, sadly that goal is far from my reach because of my class, so I shall do the next best thing... I shall travel across the lands and seas and help those in need, and save those in trouble."
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] To create a world of peace and happiness.
Personality:[/b] A kind, happy, loving, and generous man that no one has a problem with. Also has a humorous side to him.
Skills:[/b] Ability to negotiate greatly and end conflicts in peace. Can deliver motivating speeches as well. +Strength, endurance, and extensive weaponry skills. Also has knowledge in math and is literate.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b]
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b] I wear a hood to mask my identity, since most likely I am to make enemies across my journey. You can characterize me as an assassin really, since I prefer to creep up on people and get them on the surprise."

*Guards approach*
me: "This man is fairly drunk, can one of you take him to a local inn?"
*gives guard money"
me: "That should be enough for the inn keeper, and some extra for you fellas."
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer:
me: "Hmm... Seems to me we have some trouble..."
*I carefully use my skills to get near them without alerting them*
me: "Ahem. Excuse me gentlemen, but may I ask what you are doing to this poor defenseless man?"
( The bandits jump and draw out their weapons in shock"
Bandit 1: "Who are YOU? What are you doing here?!"
Bandit 2: "Give us all your money or else!"
Me: " I shall do nothing of the sort. Leave this poor man, otherwise we're going to have a problem."
Bandit 1+2: "HAHAHA!"
Bandit 2: "What are you going to do with that measly iron sword? Whittle us a bow?
Me: " No not at all, but if you'd like, I can show you what I CAN do with this sword."
Bandit 1: "I've had enough of your insolence!"
Bandit 2: "Lets just kill him and take his possessions. "
(Bandit 1 and 2 leap out at Faiz with their sharp swords, but Faiz can tell they have never used a sword before) (Faiz withdraws his sword quickly and takes his stance, sword raise high waiting for the first strike. Bandit 1 swings low, and thats where Faiz notices his footing mistake. Faiz swung his sword upon bandit 1 sword and bandit 1 stumbles a bit, then Faiz swung once more to disarm him, causing bandit 1 to fall to the ground.)( Bandit 2 was carefully trying to sneak up behind Faiz, but the old man realized this and yelled to Faiz "Behind you!" Bandit 2 swung towards Faiz head, but with the help of the old man, Faiz quickly ducked, rolled to grab bandit 1's weapon and stood. Faiz could tell by this bandit's footing that he has some skill in him, so he had to be careful. Bandit 2 came fast on the attack against Faiz and swung his sword from up high. Faiz side swept to the left and was waiting for the opportunity. Bandit 2 swung ferociously at Faiz, but wasn't able to get any hits on him, Faiz was to fast for him. Faiz then threw in the air the sword he acquired from the first bandit to confuse the second bandit, who instinctively looked up, which was his mistake. Faiz then punched him in the side of the face and swung his sword upon his to disarm his enemy. He then kicked the bandit upon his chest which caused the bandit to sway back.)
me: "Now then, since you are clearly defeated be off, otherwise I'll be forced to take your life."
(The bandits, frustrated at their defeat, get up and leave with haste.)
me: "Im terribly sorry about that sir, I hope they didn't cause you any trouble"
Old man: "Oh thank you very very much! Is there any way I could repay you?"
me: "No, its alright don't worry about it. Here, take these swords, so that if they ever come back again you can scare them off with these.
*Hands old man the bandit's swords*
Old man: "Thank you young man. Tell me, what is your name?"
me: "The name is Faiz good sir, it was a pleasure meeting you but I must be off. Have a good day!"
old man: "You too! Thanks again!"
[b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).[/b]
Answer:
(As I walk across the capital, I come across a merchant selling a variety of things. The first thing that caught my eye were a couple of old books scribed "God's will" and "Book of Heroes".)
merchant: "Ahh, hello sir! I see that you are interested in these here books.."
me: "Why, yes I am! They seem very old and interesting... Tell me, how much for both?"
merchant: "How much are you willing to offer?"
me: "No particular amount really..."
merchant: "Hmm... How does 20 menas sound?"
me: "Hmm.. Sounds decently fair-"
merchant: "I mean 15 menas! That's a good deal for these two books! If you don't think so I'll be willing to haggle down the price for you..."
( I can tell he is really trying to get rid of these books... Why?... Upon closer examination I notice that his coin pouch is very very small, and that his clothes are a bit torn.. It seems to me his business is taking a toll for the worse and that he's trying very hard to feed himself and his family...)
me: "Alright you got yourself a deal sir! 15 menas for the two books!"
merchant: "Very good sir!"
(I hand him the sack of coins and he hands me the books)
me: "Thank you very much!"
merchant: "No no, thank you! Come again, tell your friends!"
(As the merchant grabs the coin pouch off the table, he notices it to be a bit heavy...)
merchant: "What the?... Oh god please no... Don't tell me I got ripped off.."
(The merchant then opens the pouch and puts his hand to retrieve whats inside)
merchant: " Why... It can't be!... There must be at least 250 menas in here! I- I can't believe it! I mean, but why? This has to be a mistake!"
( He open the pouch and looks again inside to find a little papyrus note that said "Tis not a mistake.")

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer:I see the the eerie man and yell to the guards "get that man" but he starts running and the quards in their 20 pound armour cant catch up to him so I run after him it's easy almost too easy I'm catching up to him by the mili-secon. Then he stops and catches his breath thats when I'm on him in a second. The man pleads for his life like I'm a murderer the guards are there in a minute and take him with them. But as their leaving the more plump one throws me a few coins and says "for the emperors life" (not that it's enough anyway.)
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer:When I see the man and the two bandits i calmly walk to them and ask the bandits " what are you doing" one of them says get I should get away before we hurt YOU. So I say "No" and that's what sets them off one of them goes to punch me in the gut while the other pulls his sword out of his scabbard I block the punch and kick him in the knee he screams like a little girl and I hear the bone go backward and through the back of his knee joint. But by this time the other bandit was in his fighting position but I could just tell this ones more experienced. He fakes a jab at my side and instead kicks me where you should never bee kicked. I fall to the ground and the bandit is about to stab me in through the heart when I see the small iron blade pierce through the bandits chest after we get him off I sing a jolly tune and throw the old man my extra dagger and my helmet "thank you kind sir" and I'm off.

Answer:I walk over to the man and ask if he has any small non-used books he says yes for 2 I could get it for 16coins. I then say "how bout 10 but I'll throw in my extra boots." The man the replies "No 11 and your boots and I'll give you 4 apples, deal ?" I say "Deal, oh I see you have some lamb in the corner 6 money and I'll throw in some spices." He pauses thinking "Oh all right just don't waste my lamb." As I leave I see the old man and throw him some extra coins "keep the change!" I say in pity.

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Rowan was born in the Holy Oren Empire. Where Leif (his father) was a well respected farmer. And his mother stayed home educating Rowan. Rowan's family was not extremely poor nor middle class. They lived in a small cottage just outside of the Holy Oren Empire where you could see the wheat fields glister in the day and darken in the night. Leif wanted the best for his family and did what ever he could do to achieve that.
By that age of 11, Leif wanted Rowan to help with the wheat fields. But, Rowans mother said "No, he is too young...." After 2 years Leif wanted Rowan in the wheat fields, and Rowans mother agreed. At first Rowan did not feel accustomed to the long dry days and labor intensive work. But after a while Rowan did not mind it until about a year. Rowan did not like to do the same thing over and over again. After work Leif would always tell stories to Rowan about his earlier days (30's) where he sailed, mined, and even farmed... Leif was a strong influence in Rowans beliefs. Rowan wanted to explore the world just like his father did. Rowans goal in life was to explore and benefit from all of Anthos. Rowan made countless friends in the big gates of the Holy Oren Empire. Although he made tons of friend Rowan was to lazy to keep strong relationships, and most did not work out.

Rowan looks for different strange jobs all the time. Rowan mostly does not feel the need to settle down in one job until it is the right time. Rowan wants to build a name for himself and his family. Right now Rowan goes across the lands of Anthos only in the east has Rowan discovered and found most of the villages and settlements. Rowan wants to find every kingdom in Anthos and discover what it has to offer.

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: Rowan looks at the dark-clothed figure inspecting his shoes to his hood. Rowan then comes to decide he is up to no good. Rowan looks at the guards, noticing they do not see him. Rowan then thinks weather he should act and say something or not do something at all. Rowan looks down at his feet noticing the light is getting darker. Rowan then thinks in his mind that he does not want to make any trouble. Rowan then leaves, continuing his work. He walks by the guards trying to avoid eye contact so that he will not fell guilty about his decision.
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer: Rowan looks over his right shoulder and sees an old man. Rowan then looks at the old man kneeling in front of a stone that looks like a weird mushroom. Rowan then turns his head a little and sees two heavily armed bandits. Knowing the bandits will hurt the old man. Rowan stands there silently waiting to see what happens. After 2 minutes nothing happens... And Rowan is forced to make a decision. Rowan thinks that even though there are two bandits and Rowan is equipped with a iron longsword he saids, "I am no hero, and certainly not a fighter". Rowan then tries to reinforce his decision of not acting by thinking that he will die if he does it and that this is how humanity works. Rowan then looks ahead into the never ending dark trail. Rowan takes a step... another step..... and another step.... Then stops and looks back at the old man and bandits. Thinking that if you do act you will get hurt or die. Rowan then looks forward with a hunched back and continues to walk slowly into the mist of the dark forest.
[b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colorful stall.

He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).[/b]
Answer: Rowan walks in the town square when at a slight glance, Rowan sees a colorful stand. Rowan approaches the stand carefully thinking of what he will get. Rowan looks at the stall keeper and looks back down at the collection of general goods... The stall keeper saids "Hello Traveler" in an intent to be nice. Rowan then saids "Hello" while trying to find something he likes. Then! Rowan sees a big iron axe and see's the sunlight hitting off it. Rowan saids with excitement "May I see that axe please?" The stall keeper picks up the axe with a little trouble then hands it over to Rowan. Rowan looks at the stall keeper in agreement then looks at the axe slowly. Rowan starts at the top and goes to the bottom. Rowan finds the axe is some what rusty and the handle looks used because of a chip in the wood. Rowan then asks the stall keeper without trying to arouse suspension. "Is this iron axe new?" the stall keeper saids with confidence. "Oh..... sure it is". Rowan then thinks to himself if he should cause any trouble. Rowan thinks that it might be stolen, but also thinks that it just might be used for one tree. Rowan then looks at the stall keeper who looks like he is sweating. And saids "okay I will give you 5 barleys of wheat for this axe." the stall keeper saids "Whoa that axe is new , that is not a fair price!" Rowan then saids quietly without alerting everyone. "Well... This axe looks a little rusty and has a chip on the wooden handle." Rowan then looks at the stall keeper straight in his eyes. The stall keeper looks at the guards near by with suspension and saids "Okay". Rowan thinks the axe is stolen but after he bought the axe he doesn't want to cause any trouble. Rowan then leaves to go back on his journey.

Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name:Astrimarus Vandercor Current Age:22 Sub-race (if any):Northerner. Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Astrimarus comes from a long line of blacksmiths and farmers. He spent his childhood learning from his father, Salthor, how to be a blacksmith. He learned all of the tricks of the trade from him. He lived in the settlement of Arethor just a block away from the Saint Everard Cathedral with his mother, father, and his two sisters. The two sisters learned from their mother. Astrimarus was oldest of the three and the most calm. He never got along with them but he loved them with all of his heart.
Just a day before the Feast of Spring was to come, at the age of 12, Astrimarus was working some chain mail with his father a band of unknown raiders came storming through the town. Destroying the whole village, kidnapping people. Including, his father. He became full of anger and depression. The rest of the family had minor injuries and scars and bruises. A search was conducted by some of the towns folk and a few guards. They searched for weeks and weeks, but still no trace. Astrimarus trained himself further into becoming a master blacksmith such as his father for the rest of his life. For 2 years, he was smithing a mighty sword made of a strong metal. It was still unknown to him on what it was. His father had used it for nearly everything. He said to him, "Son, when you are ready, I will tell you the true secret behind my smithing, and what this mysterious material is."
A few years later, the same raiders stormed the town again. This time he was ready. He drew the very sword he had been smithing. The raiders stopped dead in their tracks. The leader of the pack unmounted his horse and said in a deep voice, " Ah you must be the son of Salthor, Astrimarus right?" "Yes." He replied in an angered voice. The chief then raised his hammer and spoke, "Then you shall die." The two battled for hours when a rock hit the chief from another direction. Astrimarus quickly dashed into the wild and hid. He knew what he had to do. Ambitions for the Future:Become a fierce warrior and a master blacksmith to find his father.[/b] Personality: He has angered thoughts but never releases anger until he knows it's the right time, He doesn't talk much because of the fact that he is very solemn and depressed because of his father, Arrogant at times from his anger, Never greedy or self focused, Brave, and courteous.[/b] Skills: Advanced Blacksmithing schematics,Hand-to-hand combat taught to him from a retired elite warrior,Sword and other weapons combat skills.[/b] Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): A tall light-skinned with a slight tan, strong arms from training for years with multiple mentors teaching him their way of becoming a true noble warrior, two large cuts on his arms that he keeps as a reminder of what cunning he has, Ocean-blue eyes.[/b] (Couldn't get attaching files to work Link: http://sta.sh/02f2nf93um3v) Any other details you wish to share about your character:He as an easly angered person.

Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b] Answer: I quickly sprint to the hooded man. Tackle him to the ground, and remove all weapons from his person. As I draw my sword I yell at him, "What are your intentions or I will slay you! You are lucky I am in a decent mood today or I would have slit your throat and left you to the maggots." If he attempts to run I shall silence him. I grab a metal pair of bindings I created from my satchel and bring him to the guards at once. [b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b] Answer: I would pick up a small rock near the house and throw it in the window at a wall inside the house. As one of the bandits from inside the house come out to investigate I quickly snap his neck and lay him behind an oak tree. As the other bandit calls for his friend I run into the cottage from behind and declare, "Leave this man alone or else you shall feel my blade. You will not be assisted in this battle, your companion is already out side taking in eternal sleep in the void." As the bandit charges I quickly draw my sword and disarm the foe as I lung for his heart. I walk back inside of the cottage and tell the old man to be careful and that I require no reward. [b]3.

"Aye, this is a fine blade of great quality, I shall pay you with 30 gold." He declares, "Heavens no, this blade dates back to the ages of Malin himself! This be worth 70 at the least!" I correct him with my knowledge of smithing, "Good sir, I am an advanced blacksmith, I have been studying blades and armor since I was a child. This blade dates back only about 10 years, this blade does not have the mark of the first elven smiths only a more common mark of elvish blades now a days." The shop keeper admitted to the truth of the fine blade and says,"I am sorry sir about my lies. I hope you can forgive me." I reply, "It is not a problem, I can see that you have not much money, I shall pay you 40 gold." I leave 40 gold on the empty weapon case the blade was in and walk away.

After a few miles, they chance upon some orcs fighting a fellow dark elf. His brother immedietely engages the toughest of the orcs, only to be slain. Mortified, he wants to rush in and avenge his brother, but realizes it would be futile. The orc, having no such reservations, rushes up and clubs him. When he wakes up he is in an unfamiliar house. Upon asking the human nursing him, he finds out that a farmer found him half-dead by the side of the road and brought him there. After thanking the farmer and taking his leave, he returns to Manilor, but his family is gone. He is still searching for them and for the orc, to avenge his brother.

____
[b]1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Uponinspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?[/b]
Answer: I walk up, introduce myself and ask them to stop. If they do not comply, i challenge them to a non-lethal fist fight. If they win, I'll walk away and pretend it didn't happen, but if I win, they leave and never bully the child again. After a short brawl, they yield and leave without another word. I ask the child if there is anything further I can do. And then continue on my way.
[b]2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. Hecollapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there,defenseless - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: I ask him if he is ok, then I help him to his feet, collect his coins and return them to him and offer myself as an escort to his destination.
[b]3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).[/b]
Answer: I walk over, inspect his wares and select an iron sword and iron armour as I only purchase what I need. However, I think that his price is unreasonable. I ask him to lower the price but he flatly refuses, saying he needs every coin he can get. I then pull out a gold coin and ask him to pick a side of it, saying that if it lands with my side showing I name the price and vice versa. After flipping it, my side is showing and I walk away pleased with my purchases.

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Acting out a part you aren’t, such as an elf, orc, or other mythical creatures. Usually involves a made-up character that you ‘roleplay’ as.
Meta-gaming: When you know something that you haven’t roleplayed out. For example, say Kit the human was going to betray Mutty the orc, but Mutty the orc knew he was going to kill him. So Mutty killed Kit.
Power-emoting: Something that you say happens but really doesn’t such as *Kashe stabs Wutang* *Wutang dodges Kashe* Greatly enhances the roleplaying experience. Can also be used by doing the /me command in minecraft.

Complete the following biography on your character
Full Name: Kashe Qu
Current Age: 18
Sub-race (if any): N/A
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Kashe was born in Abresi, he lived in a small house, with not many belongings. Kashe’s father died when Kashe was only two due to the plague. Kashe’s mother raised him for eight years alone.
When Kashe was only 4 years of age his family lost all of their money and belongings to a thief, they were forced to live out on the streets. He suffered many sicknesses and hardships on the streets. In these hard times, Kashe's mother resorted to prostitution for the extra money. But there was one thing that changed all of these things, a young boy named Matheus.
It was a stormy night when Kashe was sitting on the streets, not doing anything. Just thinking, thinking about his family, and life. Then a boy about his age walked past him, the boy stared at Kashe for a few moments and not long after said curiously, “Hey, are you hungry?”
Kashe nodded almost immediately, the boy handed him a loaf of bread. Matheus sat down next to Kashe and started up a conversation.
“So what’s your name?”
With his mouth full of bread Kashe replied, “Kashe… Kashe Qu.”
“Well Kashe Qu, it’s awfully cold tonight how about you come by my place for the night?”
Kashe looked up at Matheus with joyful eyes. From that day on, Kashe and Matheus were best friends.
Kashe and Matheus grew together like brothers, they did everything together. Kashe and Matheus were looking forward to one particular thing, Matheus’ birthday party. 6 months later, it was Matheus’ birthday party. Kashe and Matheus were having the time of their lives, lots of friends were over and even some adults. Matheus’ mother told Kashe and Matheus to fetch some wine and water for the guests. When they came back everything was wrong. They walked into the door, everyone was dead. Blood was all over the place. Matheus knelt down next to his parents and began weeping. Kashe put an arm around him. Matheus then said.
“Kashe… lets make a promise”
Kashe replied “A promise…? What kind of promise?”
“A promise that when we meet again we will both be strong… so none of these things will ever happen, and when they do… we’ll be strong about it.
Kashe begin to slowly cry. Realizing his parents were dead as well. He walked towards them. Then
replied saying,
“When we meet again? What do you mean when we meet again? I will always be with you.”
“For now, we go our separate ways” Matheus chokes, “And try our best to fulfill our promises. Besides if I have you I won’t be able to become strong.”
Kashe felt an ache in his heart. So great he couldn’t bear it, he began to weep, so loud the whole
city could hear it. But finally after a few minutes of crying. He got up, and embraced Matheus, he then walked away turned back. Matheus waved back, bright red cheeks, and tear eyes. And shouted, “Farewell brother!”
Kashe was impacted by this forever. Kashe was put into foster care, he jumped from place to place quickly due to his lack of social skills. Finally when he was 12 he was taken in by his master. Vex Tung, trained heavily with Axes and stealth. Vex taught Kashe many things about these two war elements. Vex Tung died when Kashe was 16, he left Kashe all of his belongings and his house.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] Meeting up with his childhood friend Matheus, and to fulfill his promise with him, to be strong no matter what happens. Maybe even join a knighthood, or create one.’
Personality:[/b] You could say Kashe isn’t the brightest person to be around, not having his parents around for half of his life has definitely had a large impact on him. He hasn’t learned most of life’s lessons, and isn’t the best with social skills. Although troubled in social skills he’s great working with himself or people he has been close with for a long time.
Skills:[/b] Kashe is greatly skilled in the arts of the Ax. Being taught by Vex Tung greatly increased his
skill. Kashe is very skilled at being stealthy as well. He has forbidden himself to pickpocket or steal, but it does come in handy.
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b]
Kashe is rather a strange person, he doesn’t respect your privacy, is blunt, and is just
different to be around. He might be mean at first, you just need to get to know
him.
Open-Response-Questions
Each question in this section must be
answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
___
1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?
Answer: I sprint towards the guards, and tell them about the man.
Kashe: “Excuse me guards, but do you see that man in the black?”
Guards: *Nods*
Kashe: “I believe he’s trying to assassinate the emperor, or anyone.”
Guards: “Civilian, we’ll take care of this. Thank you for the information.”
Kashe then walks away and looks back towards the black figure. The guards are running his way. The black figure also begins running. Kashe decides to disobey the guards orders and also try chasing him down. But fortunately the guards are able to take down the black figure. The black figure takes out a knife and stabs one of the guards. The other guard jumps back and gets his longsword out. He shouts Guard: “By the name of the Empire, you are under arrest!”
The Black Figure then stabs toward the guard but the guard easily dodges, and cuts his arm off.
2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron ax, how do you react? (I changed it to an ax to make it fit my roleplaying
character, I hope that’s okay)
Answer: I run towards the old man, hoping to aid him in this great time of need. As I near the bandits back I shout at them,
“Filthy bandits, stealing from an old man are we?”
“Easy pickings.”
“You’re done stealing from this old man.”
I take my ax out and hold it at battle stance, ready for anything to happen. The two bandits began attacking me, and it takes all of my strength to stop them. Just as Kashe can’t hold out any long the two bandits are struck down by the old man.
“Thank you for the help adventurer.”
Kashe walks away without a word.
3. You are standing within the
mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of
general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).
Kashe: “How much for the Diamond Ax?”
Merchant: “300 Minas.”
Kashe: “I’ll take it for 150.”
Merchant: “That’s nearly half off!?!”
Kashe: “But I only have 150 Minas”
Merchant: “But that cost me 200 Minas to make! I’d be losing 50 Minas me boy.”
Kashe: “If you want my business you’ll let me buy it for 150 Minas.”
Merchant: “Fine, 150 Minas, but this is the only deal I’m making you!”

Full Name: Nicholas Strongwing
Current Age: 22
Sub-race (if any): None.
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Nicholas grew up in a small village near the capital by the name of Ager; he had no siblings and little for himself. They lived off the little Nick's father made from his leather work. All the kids around him where already training to be warriors or guards, if you couldn't bash someone's head in with it they weren't interested. He never felt like he fit in. His mother taught him how to read at a young age, saying, "The ability to read is greater than knowing the correct form for swinging a blade." His father wanted Nicholas to be a merchant, or a smith, or a warrior, but Nick wasn't interested. He wanted to do what he loved: writing stories, crafting poems, and playing the music he so loved. At age ten he bought a mandolin with the money he earned working at the local general goods store, and at age eighteen he ran away from his dreadful village and moved to a big city. All he took where his mandolin, his reed pipes, a journal, and a dagger.
During his flight from Ager, the only thing that kept him company in that forest was his music. After living off the land for four days Nicholas found what he was looking for. Abresi. He went to the city once before, for his uncle's funeral, a dull affair. It only took him two days by cart, and he remembered the route. When he arrived at the city he found his widowed aunt and moved in with her. She didn't ask why he turned up at her front door looking for a home, he knew her nephew, he knew he was unhappy where he was. His parents knew it too, they never looked for him, they knew he would be okay. Nicholas got a job at, again, a general goods store. He truly was a great salesman, he could talk a stubborn dwarf into buying an elven weapon. He never spent a single bit of minas. He saved up from his job at the shop and playing music at pubs and inns for two years. On the morning of his twenty-first, Nicholas took all the minas he had and bought adventuring gear: sword, clothing, a map of Anthos, and food. He left Abresi without a goodbye to his aunt, not even a note. She knew where he was though. She knew his need for an adventure.
Nicholas didn't know where he was going, so he went back to the only place he knew. His old home. He traveled in that direction for only two days this time. He went into his old cabin, but nobody was there. Nick left a coin purse full of minas on the table. He set off and traveled again, in no specific direction, just away from where he was.
It didn't take him long to start living his dream. He traveled all over meeting new people and performing songs or reading his stories for people. His job pays little coin, but he does what loves as well. He hasn't made a name for himself quite yet, but he is surely on his way.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] He doesn't really have any sort of ambitions. He
wants money, but he wants to be recognized as a musician, poet, and story
teller. He wants to keep adventuring, be he has yet to go on a true quest. He
still wants the thrill he tells of in his stories: slaying dragons, storming
castles, being a hero.
Personality:[/b] He is a friendly person, though he is quite
manipulative. He knows what he can achieve, and he can talk you into doing his
will without you even knowing it. He is an artist, never felt like he fit in
with the warriors and strong men he grew up around. He is very sarcastic when
he speaks.
Skills:[/b] His music is enchanting, can calm the wildest
beast and those who hear are like they are under a spell. He is quite slick
with a blade, as any adventurer should be, and he is extremely charismatic, can
talk himself out of a murder even if he had the bloody blade in his hand, not
that he would ever need to.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b] Nicholas has dark hair and dark eyes. He often has a bit of grime on his face from traveling and his finger nails are riddled with dirt. He usually wears a mix of leather and cloth. He keeps his reed pipes
on his belt and his mandolin on his back. (I was having an issue with Imgur, I am completely new to it and when I tried doing anything with an image it wouldn't let me post).
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b] On the topic of crime: Nicholas has the capability of killing if it is justified, he is smart with a blade but has yet to use it to cause heavy damage. If someone falls and spills their coin, he will help them up, gather their coins, but may slip a couple in his pouch and walk off.

____
[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what doyou do?[/b]
Answer: Tonight by the palace as I was walking to the inn, I saw a man dressed in black. I couldn't catch a glimpse of his face, but I know he was shady. I am hoping he was just some citizen or traveler, maybe trying to set up a deal of alchemy ingredients. I wasn't going to say anything, not just accuse this man because he was looking suspicious, even if the guards were around. Leave it to someone else to take care of the guy, I just hope I made the right choice. I will find out in the morning.
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer: I was venturing through a thick forest, quite beautiful. The bark was a deep brown and leaves a vibrant green, the leaves for thick and the sun could hardly poke through. It was so beautiful I could live there one day, I really could. I was walking along, playing my reed pipes and stomping my feet on the dead leaves, when I met a clearing in the forest. A small stone cottage with a thatch roof, and at the doorway was a weak man. By him were two, human bandits, wearing iron armor and wielding steel blades. I couldn't take them alone, apparently the Dwarves aren't big on music and poetry and I didn't make one bit of coin there, so I
sold some of my belongings for some extra coin. I walked over to the bandits, still playing a tune on my reeds, then put it back on my belt. I said, "Excuse me, but let me introduce myself; my name is Nicholas, Nicholas Strongwing. Musician, Poet, adventurer, you've surely heard of me, haven't you? May I ask what the matter is, a bit of a scuffle here I see?". "Ya mate," the first bandit says, "This man here did not pay the taxes he owes." "Look," I said, "We both know you two are no tax collectors, this is obviously a scam, but tell you what, I'll let you off on a break and no guards are notified, okay? You don't exactly want to scuffle with me either." I showed no fear, if they sense fear you are dead. They walked off, quite furious, but they left. I told the old man, "Not all fights are won with a blade and a well-placed arrow." I walked back into the forest,
and as I left I heard a faint "thank you young man." That made my day, it truly did.
[b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggleand choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).[/b]
Answer: This morning I got up
early to buy some equipment. I recently made some gold at the local inn playing
my mandolin and telling stories, and had enough to buy some of the stuff I had
to sell back at that Dwarven village. I needed a new sword, and some decent
boots. A traveler like me does a lot of walking on his feet you know, and you
have to invest in some quality boots or your feet will be sore like a *****. I
walk over to this small old man, "What would you be looking for here lad?
I've got food, , weapons, maps, everything a traveler like you may need."
"And how would you know me as a traveler my friend?" I said. "Oh
your worn out fur boots and dirty hands gave it away, you can tell a lot about
a man by his hands. Anyway, being observant is an important part of being a
salesmen. Anyway I am assuming you would like some of my fine leather boots,
maybe a better blade than that iron you have there? Elven steel perhaps?"
"How much would those cost, I am on quite a budget." That merchant
chuckled like he saw an Orc in a dress, he said, "I heard you at the inn
last night, you buy me a drink and tell me a fine old story and I'll give you
what you want." I let out a grin, sometimes a charming personality can get
you more than you might expect. "You are very kind, I'll meet you at the
inn tonight."

Each question in this section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
____
1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: I am horrified. I speak with the older group, asking why they're doing it. They reply reluctantly, with a rather useless answer. "Because". I attempt to persuade the group to leave the child alone, and soon enough they agree. I then ask the child where it lives, and guide him back to his home.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?
Answer: I pick up the gold, and tuck it in my pocket, when and if he wakes up, I'll give it back, for I do not want any thieves taking advantage of the poor man, I look to see what's on him, but unfortunately there is no way of seeing who his relatives are, or if they're still alive, for that matter. I look around, trying to find a place to move him to, and I soon find a soft patch of grass, about twenty minutes later the man wakes up, and I give him the coins, as long as some of my own gold, to help him with his endeavors.
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer: He points to a beautifully carved bow, with unfamiliar inscriptions on it. I stare at if for a few seconds, taking it in. The first thing I ask is, "Is it real, I mean, not a replica?" The man replies with "Nope, it's real, ain't it a beauty? It'll cost you a pretty penny, but I'm willing to haggle with you"
"And the carvings? What are they?"
"I ain't got no idea, but they're so intricate, that I'd be quite convinced it was elvish"
"Name your price"
"50 gold coins"
"30"
"45"
"35, That's my last offer."
"I guess I could sell it for that, hoped I woulda got more from it though, well anyway, here you go, and the coins? Yes thank you, have a nice day, now."

Full Name: Davin Redwood.
More formally, Longbeard Davin Redwood, descendant of the Frostbeard clan.
Current Age: 47 years. Almost seven seasons.
Sub-race (if any): Mixed race Dwarf (Mountain Dwarf and Cavern Dwarf.)
Clan (if any): The Frostbeard clan. However Davin doesn’t really consider himself a true Frostbeard.
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):[/b]
Davin smiled at the question. “Hah. No one’s asked ‘bout where I’m from for years!” He downed a few gulps from the keg in his hand and as he set the frothing ale down, settled deep into the wooden chair.
“I was born somewhere near Kal ‘Dwain, on the coast. Never met my father, but I grew up with my mother.” He wiped his mouth with the back of his worn leather glove. “She worked hard for me, at the docks. Her name was Velina, her father was a Frostbeard.” *Scoff* Davin sat forwards, and rubbed the stubble on his neck, peering into the fire. The dancing flames reflected in his eyes. “She always told me I had strong blood in my veins. Ugh.” He spits over his shoulder and takes another swing of the honeyed ale. “No. I don’t know who my father was, but he was a Cave Dwarf. No doubt there.”
He grins.
“So that’s me. Half Cave, half Mountain.
Anyway, when I was two seasons grown, I left my mother, my baby brother, and their cosy house by the sea, and ran off. Made my way to ‘Dwain town with the dog. I lived there for three years.” The Dwarf shifted in his seat and cleared his throat. “One of the things I can remember best was my friend Ka’Bei. He was a goblin orphan, working with the village clockmaker. Only a foot taller than me, but smart. And a good tinkerer.
I picked up how to read from ‘im, and learnt to write, too. We stole pies from shop windows, climbed to the top of the city walls at night, fought with the other kids in our block. Eventually, when he grew his tusks, we decided to leave. Make our way to a bigger town, see the world.
So we left Kal ‘Dwain and took to the road, making good distance during the day and setting up camp during the night, fighting off the occasional spider or zombie. I taught Bei how to fish in the streams, and he taught me how to look for bitterroot amongst the grass, and plucked me apples from trees. River...River was my dog. She ran off and brought back ground fowl and chicken. We all were happy.
We’d been on the King’s road for a few weeks by then, and we met our first travellers. Orcs, two of them. I was scared stiff, but Bei stood up to them. He handed over what money we had but told them to keep on their way. The bigger one of the two, I remember him. He was missing an ear, and he had a huge skinning knife at his belt. He lifted Bei off the ground by the throat and they had a short exchange in blah. The second Orc had a yew hunting bow with a heavy shaft arrow nocked, and he just laughed at whatever the big one said. Ugly sods” Davin licked his lips uncomfortably. “Well, the big one got bored, and asked Bei one more question. When they laughed at the response, he crushed Bei’s neck in his hand. Just like that.”
*sigh* Davin drained the ale from the keg, then slid it slowly across the table.
“He dropped Bei’s body in the dirt and drew his curved knife, stepped towards me. The second Orc lifted his bow and drew the string right back. As the first one walked up, River sidled in between us and growled. I should’a held her back, should have done something to help Bei ‘afore, but I was scared. I just stood there. The Orc leant down to pat her, and when she snapped at him, big er kicked her in the chest, and the other one put an arrow through her as she ran. Bei and River dying was my first real tragedy, and I think I grew into a man at that moment. Though I was lucky myself to live. I only just managed to talk my way out of it, and it cost me.” Davin tilted his head up and showed an old scar under his chin, beneath his thick beard. He then lifted his left sleeve and revealed an ugly mark which was obviously the result of a deep cut. “Stabbed me in the arm and hacked off my beard.” He grinned again. “I had to stuff the wound with birch leaves and head to the nearest outpost.
I like Orcs. Most of ‘em I’ve met since are hard folk, but they love to have fun, and they can be great friends. But , if you ever get one angry…I’ve seen an Orc run a man through for calling him whitewash. You’ve got to respect them until you know them well, that’s all.
But yeah. I realised a lot of things after I’d slept off the fever from the wounds, and gotten over the deaths of my friends. I realised I’d been stupid. Abandoned my family. I don’t really consider myself a Frostbeard but I’d dishonoured the clan, you know? Once I re-gained my strength, I set off for Kal ‘Dwain docks. The journey took me a while, and by the time I finally returned I was near three seasons old. My family was gone. I asked one of the sailors what had happened and he said thay’d left. Run out of money and moved away.” Davin shrugged his heavy shoulders with a jingle, as the tools on his harness swung about. “Haven’t seen or heard of them since.
So I made my way slowly up north until I was away from other Dwarves. I hauled lumber for settlements and helped out where I could. I’ve spent good time with elf and human. They’re good folk, and I like making new friends.
And now-a-days? I keep on the move, but I’m near seven seasons old now. About 47 years. It’ll be a special time soon, seven seasons. I want to settle down.”
Davin tilted his head and gestured that he’d finished his story, then looked up at the friend with him at the table. “So! What about you!? Where are you from? Hah!
/S two kegs of ale!
Ambitions for the Future: Davin wishes to continue helping out in villages and outposts for a while, but in the back of his mind is looking for the right place to settle. (OOC: After I’ve gotten the basics of gameplay down, I’ll try and get a permit to create a suitable house in the woods. Eventually, when the time suits both of us, I’ll rp meet up with _Grim1_ and his character, and go off with him on an adventure :D)
Personality: Alliance is neutral good. He is friendly, helpful, cheerful but can become angry when pushed too far. Despite this Davin is an easy to get along with character and likes making friends.
Skills: Davin can get on with most people. He is a smart worker and has a good mind for hunting, building and even politics. He is also quite strong, and is able to mine safely and efficiently, but perhaps not as well as most others of his race. On top of this, Davin has spent much time in forests and woodlands, and is capable of distinguishing the berries and roots that are safely edible, and he can certainly handle his mead! However, Davin’s combat ability is quite poor. When fighting he will often lose his cool and succumb to a wild, all-out temper that causes him to flail about predictably. But he is a sufficient archer and is good with a short bow.
Davin is a thoughtful, helpful man, but perhaps someone still touched by the guilt and hardships of his youth.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
Any other details you wish to share about your character: He spends most of his time with other races, and has a fairly simplified lifestyle for a Dwarf.

____
[b]1. Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on. There is a very thin rock bridge that looks precariously unstable, but it is the only way to access the deposit. What do you do?[/b]
Answer:
“Diamond? Huh.” Davin rubbed his nose. He could see that there was no way over the bridge, but he quickly scanned the area for an alternative route. Hah. There. A narrow ledge worked its way around the walls. He always carried some wood planks with him, so he could bridge the gaps in the ledge as he went. Carefully, Davin worked across the chasm, and unholstered his pick once he reached his goal. As he gently chipped the gems from the stone, Davin considered himself lucky. He didn’t often go mining this deep, and gems were a rare find. These diamonds would make a nice addition to his small collection.
[b]2. You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you is a rather young dwarf whom is clearly going through a bad time. He is crying to himself, and clutching a small wooden hammer toy. In the other corner of the room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally at the dwarf. They stand up, one with a small dagger in his hand and begin to approach the young dwarf. What do you do?[/b]
Answer:
Davin raised an eyebrow as the two he’d noticed before approached the youngster. He considered intervening but shrugged it off. It wasn’t his business. But he still watched from the corner of his eye. The three shared a quiet exchange, but then the first one spat at the seated Dwarf, stuck the knife in the bench top, slapped the hammer from the Dwarfs grasp and grabbed him by his jacket. Davin stood. “Hey lads!” A few people in the tavern glanced up at the commotion. “Leave him alone!”
Davin was a strong man, and he hoped he was intimidating enough to scare of the two. But it didn’t seem to be the case. “Eh?” Replied the first, before the second drew a glinting short blade from his side. An ugly, sudden silence fell in the tavern. No one spoke. Unexpectedly, a quiet figure who’d been seated near Davin also stood and looked up at the youths, a beautifully engraved, castle forged sword in hand. Davin lifted his heavy pickaxe from its holster and gritted his teeth. More people stood up, drawing weapons. The two Dwarfs looked at Davin, then the Elf, and glanced around the whole room before snatching the dagger up, and backing slowly from the tavern. The kid at the table, released from the hold, sunk down to the wood sobbing. Davin glanced up at the elf, nodded thanks, then edged past and laid a hand on the youths shoulder. Someone picked up the toy hammer and placed it by his side. Laughter and talk quickly resumed in the room. “Here.” Called Davin as he gestured to the barman. “A cup of mead.”
[b]3. Whilst wandering through the Dwarven Caverns you hear a voice call out to you; “Oi, ye’! C’mere n’ get ye’rself an ale!”. You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded bar-owner looking at you - a huge grin on his face, and a mug of ale in his hand. How do you react?[/b]
Davin stopped dead in his tracks. …W..What? It was rare to see anyone else this far underground. And this one certainly didn’t look like any miner. “Uh…” Davin stepped unsurely towards the barmen, but then saw the man’s inviting smile turn ugly. A voice sounded from behind him. “Hands up mate.” Davin twirled around. A hooded figure held a drawn, straining bow at him. Oh damn. “Alright! Alright!” Davin knelt down and unclipped his belt, which had all his tools attached, including a long bladed hunting dagger. The thief stepped towards him, and pushed him onto his stomach, before rifling through his pouches. After he’d been searched, they two chuckling thieves left him to brush the gravel of his knees as they ran off with his sack of coal and iron. Oh well. At least the lapus he’d found was still tucked securely into his hidden gems pocket. But they’d taken his flint and steel as well. Grumbling, Davin clipped his belt and climbing harness back on before spitting onto the ground. “Bloody sods.” He continued up to the surface, a great deal lighter climb than it was before.

Meta-gaming:Using out of game information to the advantage of your character in game, breaking your role and sharing knowledge between your character and yourself.

Full Name: Giblet The Savage
Current Age:36
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Giblet spend a lot of his time forging weapons for his father. He was more of a slave then anything. His father and mother were declared whitewashes by the orcs and he was born into it. His personality was that of a true orc though. He worked as somewhat of a smith's apprentice to his father. He didn't have a choice though, his father forced him too. Giblet thought that he should be a warrior, not the one who makes the warrior's armor and weapons. One day some orcs came into Salvus, where he lived, and captured all 3 of them.
The orcs found pity for Giblet and thought they could still make him think like an orc.
The orcs decided on how the execution of his mother and father would go. They would have Giblet executed them. An elder orc handed Giblet an axe and in the blink of an eye, his father died. No one told Giblet to kill him. He just did. As for his mother, he threw her off a cliff. He knew he had betrayed his mother, but he did not care for his father. He visits the exact spot where he threw his mother off often. His acts gave him the title "Giblet the Savage". He was only 12 summers old at the time of the execution.
Everyone had forgot about the execution and Giblet struggles to earn his reputation. Giblet lost his last name when he killed his father and mother. He knew if he didn't keep it that his formal title of whitewash would return, and he would perhaps share the fate of his mother and father. He does not think of the future or past anymore though, his ruthless and evil mind have made him only focus on the present, of what he is doing. His racism towards the other races grew as he realized they corrupted his mother. His hate against the elves, humans, and dwarves burn in his eyes like a wild fire.
Ambitions for the Future: To learn more skills, defeat his enemies, challenge a clan leader and begin his overtaking (I know this won't happen but my character is selfish/arrogant so he thinks he could do so)
Personality: Very aggressive, somewhat strategic, ferocious, and tribal. He cares not for the well-being of other orcs or allies but for himself. This being said he is arrogant and selfish. Also can be persuaded very easily.
Skills:Great at fighting, Dedicated, strong, great climber, energetic.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
A tall dark green orc with 2 big tusks, very muscular and tribal. He has a scar over one of his eyes and relies on his other senses to detect trouble. Wears a loincloth and has 2 big hands.

[b]1. You are roaming the mighty capital of the War Nation Of Uruks, as you near the Arena you spot an Orc, wearing what seems to be human garbs as he looks at you he smiles and say out loud in common not in blah “Come friend let me teach you of civilization and break your mind from this orcish savagery!”, how do you react?[/b]
Answer: Giblet being the tribal and ferocious orc he is, charges him. Giblet smashes him to the wall and challenges him. If the other orc is strong, he will plot something to get rid of him before the fight. If weak, he will publicly humiliate him and state him whitewash. Giblet uses his strength to brutally murder the orc in the arena, as a reward he demands a blade and takes the head.
[b]2. As you are watching an Arena fight between two Orcs, the Goj of Krug walks towards the Arena, and shouts “Mi brudderz da Feztivel ob Krug iz coummeh! We needz zacrifizez tu zummun da Zpirit ob Krug un diz uzg, go gadder da Warbandz nd raid da landz nd bring mi buck zacrifizez, twiggy nd pinky dat we kan zlauhater upun da alter ob Krug nuw go mi Brudderz!” How do you react to this?[/b]
Answer: Giblet smiles looking at the Goj of Krug and roars loudly, he also makes more noise with his feet and hands. He hopes to rally the orcs. Giblet gathers a few strong people and heads to the elven settlements knowing they are the least violent. He brings a few fire starters with him and sets a few building aflame hoping to herd the elves to a trap where the other orcs ambush them and capture them. Knowing that the neighboring humans might hear about it from some stray elves he decides to mask the orc's faces. He returns with 1 less captive, hiding them in his home. He gives them to the Goj and nods his thanks for giving him the chance to fight. He then releases the 1 surviving captive and chases him for fun. Finally, he pays a visit to the Goj and asks if he had done good.
[b]3. As you are travelling in the barren Orcish deserts you come across a quiet oasis. Beside it sits a small tent where a young orc is preparing a meal of roasted halfling. He calls you over, offering you to join in with his meal. What does your character do?[/b]
Answer: Giblet walks in and waits till the meal is down being prepared. He then smiles gleefully and grabs the younger orc by the throat. He drags the orc a little bit aways and smashes his head against something (whether it be a tree, rock, or the rock/dirt ground repeatedly) knocking the orc out, he returns to feast on the halfling and eats it savagely. He waits for the other orc to return and smiles as he walks out with the bones in hand and a full stomach. He brags about the meal to the younger orc.

[b]Definitions[/b]
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Role-playing is jumping into a setting and scenario and determining your own fate, journey, and life by your actions as if in real life.
Meta-gaming: Meta-gaming is acting for another character like say for example: kabini01 says *bob jumps off cliff. This is acting for another player, a.k.a. meta-gaming, also telling people info out of game and that person using that info. But, you can't do this because the person using the info's character won't know and if he/she acts like he/she does this is also meta-gaming.
Power-emoting: power-emoting is when someone makes an action or statement that the player the action is inflicted upon has no say in what has happened. For instance: kabini01 says: * kabini01 pushes bob off of a cliff and he dies. this is power-emoting because bob has no say in what has just happened.

"Aurelia!" her mother had called, "I think we can agree that you are old enough to adventure, explore, and see the world for yourself." "You mean I can go? to see and learn and do, well, EVERYTHING?" "Yes," her mother cooed, "now go get yourself packed up and you may go!" Aurelia had brought her bow along in case of danger, she was much better with a bow than any other weapon. Aurelia enjoys learning from absolutely everything, her years in the woods had taught her the joys of discovery.
She has part-taken in a few battles, one she lost her pet wolves to. She lives a hard life on the road, yet when she is in her newly built giant oak tree her life is full of animals and peace. She raised her own animals on her own farm in her own land. All was peaceful. When her land was destroyed by foreign invaders she fought fiercely with her bow and sword, which she found she was no good with. The invaders had just left mid battle, and when they did, Aurelia's land was burnt, destroyed, ruined. Dead. She has now traveled long and far to reach the tree of Asulon and remain refugee and defender whilst starting her new farm and living in peace once more.

____
[b]1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?[/b]
Answer: I remind the elders that elven children are rare and a blessing, that you don't see many often, and that they were once children as well. I would also try reasoning with the group and the child to understand why they were doing this and what was really happening, so I could learn a little something from the encounter.
[b]2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: I would pick up the gold coins for the man and help him back up, possibly helping him to where he is going and make a new friend that could easily teach me lots through stories. I would let him know also, that if he is ever again in a time of need he could let me know and i would help.
[b]3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).[/b]
Answer: i would haggle over a bow made of fine material and arrows with it. "starting price for the bow 24$ arrows, 2 for 1$" i would take the price the tradesman offers and meet in the middle between his price and mine. if he is aggressive i will sneak and as we argue, raise my price in hopes he will lower his during his blind confusion.
How old are you?: 14
Time-Zone: eastern Standard Time
Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Yes

Full Name: Fark Dilii
Current Age: 308
Sub-race (if any): Wood Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Ambitions for the Future:
Fark was raised as any other Wood elf would be. I took his parents decades to have him. Finally, one faithful day Fark was born. He was a shy boy when he was young. He wouldn’t play much with the other few wood elf children his age. He would only practice archery at his parents’ home. Thus, he became a very good shot.
Whenever Fark did play with other children, Fark would be teased for his brown hair. All the other wood elves would have such nice hair, but poor Fark had short brown hair. When he came home in tears, his mother asked him why he was so upset. Fark replied with he hated his hair, and everyone would make fun of him. His mother told him, “The best fruit, is not the color of the skin, but the intensity, and flavor within.”
When Fark was 104 years old, His father started to become very violent. He would be found at the bar at times, so Fark and his mother spent most of the time together. His mother and Fark became very close. Every night before he went to sleep, his mom would tell him of stories, of Wood elves, and trees.
One night However, Fark’s father came home very drunk. Fark’s mother yelled at him for never being home with her or his son. Fark was lying in his bed trying to sleep over the yelling. Then suddenly all he heard was his mother screaming. Fark jumped up, and ran to the kitchen only to see his intoxicated father looking at the bloody dagger in his mother’s limp body.
Fark ran out of his home screaming for help. The neighbors started to run out of their home sto see what’s wrong. When they saw Fark’s father come out with a bloody dagger, The men talked Fark’s father to the ground.
The next day Fark’s father was sentenced to execution. Fark was distraught at both his parents gone. When the blade came down on Fark’s father’s head, Fark just sat on the ground crying. As everyone in the crowed started to head home, Fark stayed behind just watching them clean up his father’s body. Fark soon felt a warm hand on his shoulder. It was his grandpa.
Fark’s Grandfather took him in after the incident. On the first night at his grandpa’s home, Fark made a promise to himself; He wanted to never let something like this happen to anyone else. Good or bad, No child should lose both their parents.
As the years went by at his grandpa’s home, He taught him the art of Archery. He showed Fark tricks and tips about the perspective of your target. He also made sure Fark had a good education. He would make Fark read one book every day, or he wouldn’t get supper. Fark’s grandpa was an old man, 1082 In fact. He was very wise, yet strong. He taught Fark with a firm hand, yet with a soft touch. Fark began to think of his grandpa as his father.
One day, for his grandpa’s birthday, Fark wanted to catch a wild pig and cook it for his grandfather’s dinner. Fark went into the forest around noon. He told his grandfather he was going to fetch some wine for his birthday. Secretly however, Fark had already got a barrel from the local tavern. As fark head into the forest with his trusty bow, He encountered a armed skeleton! Fark’s eyes lit up and he darted behind a tree. He was sure the skeleton didn’t see him. Trying to think, he remembered his grandfather’s lesson on ranged combat. “Always head for the higher ground” He would say. “It gives an advantage of being unseen and you don’t have to worry about arrow drop as much. Fark shimmied his way up an oak, and hid in the branches. Fark Notched his arrow on his bow, Pulled back, Fark held his breath, He felt as if time itself slowed down. He released the arrow and saw it fly through the skeleton right temple. He watched as its lifeless body fell to the ground. Fark rushed over to the body to see as if it was dead. He was relieved to know he wouldn’t have to shoot it again. Fark prayed to his fore father Malin, and god for forgiveness on this poor soul. As Fark looked up he saw a unsuspecting pig drinking from a river. He quickly notched his bow and took an easy shoot at the back of the pig’s head. He put the pig in his hunting sack, and dragged it back home.
When Fark returned home, His grandfather scolded him.
“Never lie to me Fark! This is how you get killed!”
“Please forgive me grandfather.” Fark said bowing his head.
“I will but remember, the one whom lies to the rest, is the one who will soon be laid to rest.” Fark’s Grandfather said with a sharp voice.
They ate well that night, eating the whole pig. Fark went to sleep that night making another promise, that he would never lie to anyone, or thing.
By the time Fark reached 200 years old, His grandfather became ill.
“Fark, I want you to know, I always thought of you as my son.” He said lying in his death bed.
“I will Grandfather, I always will.” Fark said with tears in his eyes holding his hand.
“then my most dear Fark, I wish you a good life.” His grandpa says, drawing his last breath.
Fark began his adventure the next day. He wanted to see the world, and meet its people, Fark wished to find not fame, or fortune, just the wisdom and peace of the world. He also strived to stop any evil he could.
A good hundred years later he came across a wagon on fire. He rushed to it, only to find a large crater. He then heard a scream. He rushed into the direction of the scream to see two skeletons firing arrows at a man as he ran. One arrow hit him in the back of the kneecap and he collapsed to the ground. Fark quickly climbed a tree, Looked down on the skeletons going in for the kill, and fired two fast shots at the monsters. He was too late however one of the monsters already fired a arrow into the skull of the man. As the monsters collapsed Fark rushed to the man. He lay by his side, and prayed for his soul to be blessed. He buried the body and remembered that day forever, the day that he couldn’t save someone, and they were lost to evil.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: I approach them as a responsible adult would.
“What’s going on?” I would ask in a stern voice.
“Nothing mister!” One of the elves would pipe up in surprise.
“We were just joking around, that’s all, I swear!” Another older elf said in concern.
“Run off you boys.” I say as I watch them leave with their heads down.
I kneel down to the sniffling young elf and give him some advice. ”Whatever someone says, or does, don’t ever forget that, Keep it in your heart, use it as your motivation. Let it remain with you, and inspire you.”
“Thanks mister” The young elf says forcing a smile.
“No go run off!” I say in a joking matter.
As I continue you on my way, I fell as if I felt a side of me I never have felt. I Begin to think of my childhood, and am glad that I am doing what I’m doing, and don’t regret anything I have said or done.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?
Answer:
I rush to his side, retrieve his stick and help him on his feet. I would offer him to walk him to the next town over. If he declines I offer myself as an escort to his location. I would follow him to the farthest lands just to make sure he is safe. If he offers any reward I would decline it.
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer:
I would walk over, and look at his wares in silence. If I see something that catches my eye, I’ll ask him how much for it. If it’s anything I can’t afford or have I would wish him a good day and carry on my way.
If I do however see something I desire, such as some more arrows or a new bow. I’ll give him my dead price.
“I’ll give you two hundred minas for the new bow, and 10 minas for the set of arrows, take it or leave it.” Fark said staring into the merchant’s eyes.
“How does 250 minas for the bow sound?” The merchant replied with a smirk
“I said two hundred for the bow; I won’t go any higher than that” I say with a straight face.
“Deal.” The merchant says with a smile.
“Here” I say dropping two hundred and ten minas in his hand.
“Have a good day sir!” The merchant says waving goodbye.
“Also good merchant, I suggest you head that way to the nearest town.” I say pointing to the west.

Full Name: Arthas Mytheral
Current Age: Young adult (22ish in elven)
Sub-race (if any): High Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Arthas was raised from a upper-middle class family. He studied hard in school and got good marks. He was popular and sporty. He liked adventuring and thrills. He traveled to learn about the world and spoke to many people on the road. He was never gone long, and returned to helphelped his family business. He was a hard working teenager and he would sweat profusely while he worked regardless of the climate. He began to take an interest in the jewels of the high class families and started learning how to smelt and metalwork so he could make himself gold chains and 4 finger rings. Soon he had swagged himself out. Even his fishing rod was jewel encrusted due to the enormous amounts of treasures he fished up during his fishing training sessions and later reworked it all into jewelry.
Ambitions for the Future: To own all of the diamonds and gold which is laying at the bottom of the sea (mcmmo reference). To look like a million bucks and feel like it too. To be leader of a group of fishermen who seek the most beautiful desert oasis, tundra ice-fishing holes, and paradise beach spots to fish at in the world.
Personality: passive-aggressively competitive in a way he tries to make people not notice, suave, smooth talking, and gentle with the ladies. Not at all a fan of fowl smells if they are not produced from smelting or metal-working. This means most other races are slightly off-putting to the nose.
Skills:Jewelry, archery, FISHING MASTER, talking to people (customer support skills IRL help with this)
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Blonde hair, green clothing, golden accents and chains on my outfit.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: I ask "what is going on here". They explain themselves. I ask them if they wouldn't mind leaving him alone if he hasn't done anything wrong other than being smaller than them. If they agree you thank them and watch them off, and then escort the young one home. If they wish to make an issue out of it, I would probably just back off. I can't get my face broken just cus some little kid can't defend himself. While I would stick up for him to some extent, theres a point where several people realize they can overpower 1 fisherman/jewery maker and a little kid. I try to avoid crossing that point.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. Hecollapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there,defenseless - what do you do?
Answer: I would help him up first, and make sure he's ok then I'd help him put his coins back in his bag and make sure he gets where he's trying to go safetly. I would also advise him to protect those coins because if I was a little more needy I might very well have taken them from him because of --insert slightly sob-story like tale-- in hopes he gives me at least one coin from his pouch as payment for helping him. *insert chuckle to indicate i am only kidding about the would have taken them from you bit, then sigh as though I wish I had taken a few coins as i was helping the old man up*
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer:Hi there dealer. May I browse your goods? I am looking for some cooked fish. You see I am on a fishermans diet and wish to obtain something I can eat which is seafood. "Well we've got cooked fish right here. How many do ya need? we sell them at 6 coins each". Oh 6 coins each? that's rather steep. Per chance I could buy several at once and get a discount... Lets say 32 fish at 4 each? "Hows about 64 at 4 each". Well I suppose I have room in my bag for food which conveniently never spoils. Sure lets do that price. "Delighted. open ur bag and toss me the coins". Here you are sir. don't spend them all in one place you here? hah! I'm off on my travels sir. I hope to catch some raw fish of my own so I might have to continue to buy food from others, not that yours won't be terrific i can only assume based upon the smell. Thanks for the goods and your time sir. have a nice day! "You too. and good luck with those fish. i know I struggled a lot".

Full Name: Castien Rission
Current Age: 215
Sub-race (if any): Woof Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Castien Rission's parents moved to the new realm of anthos very early as to settle down and start a nice family after adventuring around the realms with each other. Finding a nice small farm a day's walk from Leumalin, they started there family with two girls, Airion, the oldest, and Kiirion. A few decades apart they lived happily with their parents, working the farm. Not feeling complete, Castien was born and the family became whole.
Castien grew up running around the fields and walking with his dad to Leumalin to sell the goods of their farm, although most of the time he hid behind his father scared of all the new strangers coming up to them. As he got older, he didn't talk much as he'd rather listen to the stories of his parents adventures and listen to the sounds of the nearby forests full of animals running around. Once the work was done for the day, many times he took the dogs to the forest and explored the trees and wildlife that made him feel safe and at home.
Not participating the great hunt or the following feast, they would have a small meal and play some games. One time an orc came by, stomping through their fields. Not knowing what to do he ran to his room, grabbed his bow, launched an arrow out the window and it stuck right through the orc's foot. From that day on, he never had a good outlook on the orcs, but his father did start teaching him to shoot arrows, day after day, he would bring the bow to the woods and shoot at large strones.
With a quiet and peaceful life, he was very happy as he never wanted to be a strong hero that everyone counted on, or a great politician who worked the government. He'd rather stay in the country with his family. Not many people came around the farm for it being so far away, but every once in awhile an adventurer would pass by, or even a sentinel or two. He did make one friend, a human girl by the name of Olivia, from the Holy Oren Empire. She lived out in the country with her family too, but she was growing much faster than Castien. Castien was saddended by this because he knew he wouldn't be with her forever. They would adventure around the forest together, but one day she brought a sentinel with her who she hung all over. She introduced him and they got married, Castien was invited to the wedding but he wasn't allowed to go. He never got to see Olivia again but he soon pushed her out of her mind with the animals.
He watched all of his sisters move out and to the city of leumalin and he visited their houses among the tree tops and across the hanging bridges. He toured the city hardly talking and wanting to go back to his farm, which he did once the day was over. Castien just turned 215 and his parents gave him money and sent him to leumalin to find a job, a home, and a life of his own. He has now arrived and new to the city. Shy yet brave. He must man up and take control of his life...
Ambitions for the Future: Woud like to own a small shop and farm to make money and live a small, happy, peaceful life.
Personality: Very shy but can be very determined on the things he believes. Does not really give full trust to people until he really knows that person. Once you've won him over he can be a really nice and funny guy. He's also very smart and very good at problem solving and making quick descisions.
Skills: Very good farmer and great archer. Good builder and very good problem solver, aswell as a quick thinker. Finally, very athletic, fast, and strong from working on a farm his whole life.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Dark complected like many wood elves, with natural, dirty blonde hair. Big green eyes like on an excited little puppy and short in stature, around 4'6''. Very thin aswell not wanting to waste the food he has.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: None more than started above.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?
Answer: After hearing the noise of whispers and snickers, I peak around the trunk of a large elven tree to see what I figured, a group of elves mocking a young elven child. Being shy, I looks for anyway to possibly solve the problem without being involved. Just then, I notice a pair of sentinels walking down towards the market, away from me. I frantically chase them down yelling, "sentinels! Please, wait!" In which I finally catch up to them. "There's a group of elves back there, picking, on a young child. Please do something, the young child is scared and afraid," I say panting. "You better not be making this up, we've got other things to do," says the guards looking at me annoyed. I lead the suspicious guards back to where the problem was happening. "Hey!" one sentinel yells leading the elves to start running. I watch the sentinels disappear into the thick vines after the elves. As I turn to walk away, I notice the little boy sitting down and crying. I look at him for a bit deciding what I should do. I then walk up to him and squat down next to him. "What's wrong boy? The sentinels are going to get those bad kids for you." I say trying to cheer him up. "They scared me and I didn't know what to do," the child says softly with a quiet whimper. "Well theres no need to be scared now, how about I walk you back to your house and get you some candy on the way?" He jumps up with a big smile on his face and I realize a smile appeared on my face aswell. "Thank you!" he says as we walk away.
2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?
Answer: I notice the elderly man on the ground and cautiously walk over to him as to not scare him. "You ok sir?" I say, hoping for a good answer. "Oh, yes, I just fell again, I'm getting pretty clumsy at my age I'll tell you that," laughs the old man."Well you need some help up?" I ask as I stretch out a hand. "Why thank you son," the man says as he grabs my hand. Once the elderly man is back on his feet, I bend down to pick up the spilled coins and notice his pouc has been ripped. "Aw, sir, looks like your pouch ripped. Do you have anything else to carry the coins?" I say trying to not make him sad. "Oh no, that's fine my boy. My wife has plenty more at home. This happens a lot I'll tell you!" I pick the coins up one by one and hold them in my open palm for him to take. He takes all but one coin and I say "Sir! You forgot a coin." He looks over at me with a grin on his face, "You keep it and buy yourself something nice!" A smile appears on my face, "Thank you sir!" I say as I run off towards the market.
3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer: As I listen to the man talk of the things his truck has, one item catches my eye: Waterberry seeds. "Sir! How much do you want them waterberry seeds for?" I interupt as a grin grows on his face. "How much you willing to pay?" Remembering to save some money, I hide a few coins in the bottom of my pocket and answer, "Well I don't have much on me, only a lil' 25 mina." "Oh my! That won't get you much but 3 seeds!" He's says looking at the coins in my hand greedily. "That's fine by me! I'll take 'em!" I say as I hand him the money and he returns his hand with the seeds. I notice how much I've been ripped off but i decide not to bring it up. "Now be gone empty hands" he replies as he gets ready for another victim to be conned in his plan. "Ok, looks like I don't have any more money that I just found." I say as I run off quickly.

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Acting out a part you aren’t, such as an elf, orc, or other mythical creatures. Usually involves a made-up character that you ‘roleplay’ as.
Meta-gaming: When you know something that you haven’t roleplayed out. For example, say Kit the human was going to betray Mutty the orc, but Mutty the orc knew he was going to kill him. So Mutty killed Kit.
Power-emoting: Something that you say happens but really doesn’t such as *Kashe stabs Wutang* *Wutang dodges Kashe* Greatly enhances the roleplaying experience. Can also be used by doing the /me command in minecraft.

Full Name: Kashe Qu
Current Age: 18
Sub-race (if any): N/A
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Kashe was born in Abresi, he lived in a small house, with not many belongings. Kashe’s father died when Kashe was only two due to the plague. Kashe’s mother raised him for eight years alone.
When Kashe was only 4 years of age his family lost all of their money and belongings to a thief, they were forced to live out on the streets. He suffered many sicknesses and hardships on the streets. In these hard times, Kashe's mother resorted to prostitution for the extra money. But there was one thing that changed all of these things, a young boy named Matheus.
It was a stormy night when Kashe was sitting on the streets, not doing anything. Just thinking, thinking about his family, and life. Then a boy about his age walked past him, the boy stared at Kashe for a few moments and not long after said curiously, “Hey, are you hungry?”
Kashe nodded almost immediately, the boy handed him a loaf of bread. Matheus sat down next to Kashe and started up a conversation.
“So what’s your name?”
With his mouth full of bread Kashe replied, “Kashe… Kashe Qu.”
“Well Kashe Qu, it’s awfully cold tonight how about you come by my place for the night?”
Kashe looked up at Matheus with joyful eyes. From that day on, Kashe and Matheus were best friends.
Kashe and Matheus grew together like brothers, they did everything together. Kashe and Matheus were looking forward to one particular thing, Matheus’ birthday party. 6 months later, it was Matheus’ birthday party. Kashe and Matheus were having the time of their lives, lots of friends were over and even some adults. Matheus’ mother told Kashe and Matheus to fetch some wine and water for the guests. When they came back everything was wrong. They walked into the door, everyone was dead. Blood was all over the place. Matheus knelt down next to his parents and began weeping. Kashe put an arm around him. Matheus then said.
“Kashe… lets make a promise”
Kashe replied “A promise…? What kind of promise?”
“A promise that when we meet again we will both be strong… so none of these things will ever happen, and when they do… we’ll be strong about it.
Kashe begin to slowly cry. Realizing his parents were dead as well. He walked towards them. Then
replied saying,
“When we meet again? What do you mean when we meet again? I will always be with you.”
“For now, we go our separate ways” Matheus chokes, “And try our best to fulfill our promises. Besides if I have you I won’t be able to become strong.”
Kashe felt an ache in his heart. So great he couldn’t bear it, he began to weep, so loud the whole
city could hear it. But finally after a few minutes of crying. He got up, and embraced Matheus, he then walked away turned back. Matheus waved back, bright red cheeks, and tear eyes. And shouted, “Farewell brother!”
Kashe was impacted by this forever. Kashe was put into foster care, he jumped from place to place quickly due to his lack of social skills. Finally when he was 12 he was taken in by his master. Vex Tung, trained heavily with Axes and stealth. Vex taught Kashe many things about these two war elements. Vex Tung died when Kashe was 16, he left Kashe all of his belongings and his house.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] Meeting up with his childhood friend Matheus, and to fulfill his promise with him, to be strong no matter what happens. Maybe even join a knighthood, or create one.’
Personality:[/b] You could say Kashe isn’t the brightest person to be around, not having his parents around for half of his life has definitely had a large impact on him. He hasn’t learned most of life’s lessons, and isn’t the best with social skills. Although troubled in social skills he’s great working with himself or people he has been close with for a long time.
Skills:[/b] Kashe is greatly skilled in the arts of the Ax. Being taught by Vex Tung greatly increased his
skill. Kashe is very skilled at being stealthy as well. He has forbidden himself to pickpocket or steal, but it does come in handy.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b] http://oi43.tinypic.com/2uy66qc.jpg
Tan, short dark hair.
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b]
Kashe is rather a strange person, he doesn’t respect your privacy, is blunt, and is just
different to be around. He might be mean at first, you just need to get to know
him.

___
1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?
Answer: I sprint towards the guards, and tell them about the man.
Kashe: “Excuse me guards, but do you see that man in the black?”
Guards: *Nods*
Kashe: “I believe he’s trying to assassinate the emperor, or anyone.”
Guards: “Civilian, we’ll take care of this. Thank you for the information.”
Kashe then walks away and looks back towards the black figure. The guards are running his way. The black figure also begins running. Kashe decides to disobey the guards orders and also try chasing him down. But fortunately the guards are able to take down the black figure. The black figure takes out a knife and stabs one of the guards. The other guard jumps back and gets his longsword out. He shouts Guard: “By the name of the Empire, you are under arrest!”
The Black Figure then stabs toward the guard but the guard easily dodges, and cuts his arm off.
2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron ax, how do you react? (I changed it to an ax to make it fit my roleplaying
character, I hope that’s okay)
Answer: I run towards the old man, hoping to aid him in this great time of need. As I near the bandits back I shout at them,
“Filthy bandits, stealing from an old man are we?”
“Easy pickings.”
“You’re done stealing from this old man.”
I take my ax out and hold it at battle stance, ready for anything to happen. The two bandits began attacking me, and it takes all of my strength to stop them. Just as Kashe can’t hold out any long the two bandits are struck down by the old man.
“Thank you for the help adventurer.”
Kashe walks away without a word.
3. You are standing within the
mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of
general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).
Kashe: “How much for the Diamond Ax?”
Merchant: “300 Minas.”
Kashe: “I’ll take it for 150.”
Merchant: “That’s nearly half off!?!”
Kashe: “But I only have 150 Minas”
Merchant: “But that cost me 200 Minas to make! I’d be losing 50 Minas me boy.”
Kashe: “If you want my business you’ll let me buy it for 150 Minas.”
Merchant: “Fine, 150 Minas, but this is the only deal I’m making you!”

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing:I think its when you usually pertend to be someone who your really not, also to follow a story within your setting,kind of like a play, and usually where you write a story as you role-play, and follow what charecterstics your charecter has.
Meta-gaming:Its basically knowing things that your rp charecter is NOT suposed to know in other words it kind of like cheating, and can greatly affect the choices the person makes, and is usually OOC, Example : If Someone has a conversation in a home that has closed doors, but you can still see what they say in chat. You shouldn't know this but you can see it.
Power-emoting:Its usually a forced action/emote where its usually used to be more dominant against a player like for example player 1 stabs player 2, and usually can make impossible things in game possible, like a player can say *Kills everyone using a stick* even though its impossible.

Full Name:Matheus Alvarez
Current Age:18
Sub-race (if any):none
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Summary:
He was originaly born in abesi He had a rather wealthy family and His parents died when he was just 10 due to being caught up in a tragedy, (read about it later), after the tragic death of his parents, he was taken in by a person that resembles his personality at this moment, barbaric , agressive and odly loves children and woman and also is very heroic.
He was a man with full diamond armor with light skin and a decent amount of muscles wielding a diamond sword, his name was Herven and Matheus has trained with him for years. before the death of his parents he used to have plenty of friends But unfortantely the way his parents died was also how his friends died except Kashe Qu, it was his birthday everyone was at his house celebreating it,his parents told him and his best friend(kashe qu) to fetch some water and wine for the guests but as he was outside gathering water and getting wine in the shed, the house was completly burnt to ashes witheveryone in it and the family's heirloom, the Immortal Slayer was gone along with the house and people in the house, it was a very powerful diamond sword(sharp 5 and other enchants).
So only Matheus and his best friend survived, and as they walk past the crumbles of the house matheus weeps and crys while his best friend pats his back, after that day he promised he would never cry again. After this tragic event and after being taken in by herven as his student, he became a brave strong young man who never runs away, and fights head on with whats standing in his way.
The story of how Matheus met kashe:
It was a stormy night as 10 year old matheus strolled down the streets to get back home he noticed a boy around his age in a dark alley matheus walked up to him and said "Hey are you hungry?" The boy noded and Matheus handed him a loaf of bread that was in his bag and asked"So whats your name?" the boy replied with the bread stuffed in his mouth "My name is kashe, Kashe Qu". Matheus then said"Well its rather cold tonight how about you come by my place you can stay there for the night if you want."Kashe looked up at him with eyes full of happiness, and from that day on he became his best friend.
The tragedy:
As Matheus and Kashe were gathering the water and wine Matheus spotted a dark clothed figuire walking past his house, all the suddenly Matheus had a chill go down his spine he dosen't know what it was until this day, Kashe then asked "Whats wrong Matheus you seem stressed, its your birthday you should celebrate it." Matheus then said"Nothing i guess im just stressed today for some random reason thats all".Then as Matheus and Kashe went inside the shed after around 10 seconds of being in the shed they both heard a loud crackling noise and the sound of people screaming, Matheus asked "What was that
noise?" Kashe and Matheus stormed out of the shed only to find a medium house fire on his house and the dark figuire crouched, with flint and steel in his hands. Matheus and Kashe were desperately trying to vanguish the fire however despite there efforts the house fire grew larger and larger, only to get a glimpse of his mother triyng to get out of the house but then being crushed by the crumbles of the house. Matheus rushed to his mother took her by the hand, and his mother muttered out her last words "Be strong Matheus even in situations like this". He then kneeled before the crumbles of the house in despair.
The after math of the tragic death of his parents:
Matheus looked down at the dead parents and guests and weeped and cried,then it started to rain Kashe Qu put his hand on Matheus's shoulder, then Matheus said "Kashe lets make a promise." Kashe replied "A promise? what kind of promise." Matheus replied "A promise, that when we meet again we will both be strong, so none of these things will ever happened again, and when they do we will be strong about it" Matheus wiped the tears off his eyes, then kashe said "When we meet again? What do you mean when we meet again i will always be with you"
Matheus then said "For now lets go our seperate ways and try our best to fufill our promise, besides if i have you i won't be able to become strong" Kashe felt an ache in his heart but Kashe was also a bright boy so he understood what he meant, if they were to be together they would rely on each other to much.One week has passed after that day and matheus is wandering around the streets until he was being mugged by bandits but then out of nowhere a person with light skin, blue eyes came up and defeated the bandits without a sweat.
he had a full set of diamond armor and diamond sword The man said "Are you ok young one?" he looked at the man with hopeful eyes noticing if he trained with that man, he would be strong, he quickly then said and bowed "Please sir! Take me on as your apprentice" the man said "mmhm apprentice you say? I don't know boy i only train man not kids" matheus still bowed and said in a pleading voice "Please?" the man as described before despite his personality was a nice man with a soft spot for children and women, he then replied "Alright fine, whats your name kid?" Matheus stopped bowing and said "Matheus Alvarez, and what is your name?" the man replied "Herven, pleasure to meet ya!" they then shook hands and the training begun...
Matheus trained with Mostly swordsmanship and a little bit with axes along with other vigorous training, its been 8 years since that tragic event, and he hopes to meet up with his friend Kashe Qu once again...

Full Name: Ankou Laoch
Current Age: 121
Sub-race (if any): Wood Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Ankou was the whole reason that his father and mother lived it had taken them so long to final have a child and when they did they vowed to do everything to make his life the best possible. They loved him so much as well as he loved them. By trying to make his life the best possible they had also unwittingly made him secluded from others by over protecting him. However when Ankou turned 12 his father gave him his very first bow which had been passed down from generation to generation in his family. Ankou had an inst connection with the bow which he felt was an extension of himself even though he wasn’t the best shot at the beginning.
This would lead to the beginning of the troubles in Ankou’s life. When he would be seen shooting his bow by the other kids they would make fun of him and even say he wasn’t even an elf since he couldn’t hit anything that he wanted to. Eventually his father became aware of this problem and when he tried to teach Ankou how to shoot he made very little progress. After a year of intense training with his father he was hardly any better than before. This caused his father to become embarrassed of his sun and also angry at himself for failing as a father. This inner anger would cause Ankou’s mother to leave his father and take him with her.
Three years later Ankou had finally became a decent shot but was still far behind the others that where his age. One day he was on the way to visit his father when he came across the kids who had bullied him all those years ago when he had absolutely no accuracy with his bow. They challenged him to a contest and letting his pride get the best of him he entered the contest and lost miserably. The kids began to tell him he was never going to be able to shoot and that he was a disgrace to the elf race as a whole. He threw down his bow and swore to never pick up another bow. When he finally reached his father’s he explained what had happened with tears in his eyes he was hoping his father would comfort him about what had happened. Instead the complete opposite had happened with a tear rolling down his father’s face he said I’m sorry that I failed son I was unable to shape you into the man that you need to be. When his father said this Ankou turned and ran out the door and for as long as he could and as fast as he could. Ankou became lost in the dense forest that he had been running in and it was four days before the search party found him. On the third night while he was sleeping he had flashbacks of everyone telling him what he couldn’t do and how he was terrible with a bow and just before he woke he saw his father’s face with that tear rolling down it and the disappointment in his eyes. He then awoke and started to walk when he stumbled into the search party which included his mother. She tightly embraced him enough to squeeze the life out of him. When they returned home things went on as normal but at night he would keep having the nightmare of everyone telling him he was a failure and his dads face at the end just right before he woke. After three weeks of this he decided to prove everyone wrong and master the bow. He began training in secluded spots all over as not to be seen and bullied. One day when he arrived to his favorite spot which was near a water fall he noticed that someone was sitting on a rock near where he shoots as if they where waiting. When he turned around the man on the rock said wait a minute I’m here to help you. Ankou walked into the opening and began to talk to the man. This man’s name turned out to be Ambisagrus. After training with him for four years they had grown really close as well as Ambisagrus and Ankou’s mother had fallen in love. At the age of Nineteen Ankou had nearly mastered the bow when his mothers birthday came around Ambisagrus suggested the two of them go hunt for a feast for his mother. While they where tracking a boar they heard a screaming in the distance so they decided to check it out. When they came to the edge of a clearing they saw a small farm house on fire Ambisagrus told Ankou to wait at the tree line and watch out for anything. As Ambisagrus dashed towards the house a group of bandits moved in on Ambisagrus when he came close to the house. Ankou tried to shoot at them but he was far out of his range so he dashed from the trees scream to Ambisagrus but he couldn’t hear Ankou’s screams over the roar of the fire. When Ankou came into range he started firing at the bandits by the time he had finally hit one they had killed Ambisagrus and moved their aggression to him. When they caught Ankou they beat him inches from death when a group of other in the area came and scared them off. Ankou woke up from a two year coma to find his mother sitting next to him; she was a mess from sitting at the edge of the bed for the past two years. When he woke his mother embraced him and whispered I love you to him. She then got up and walked out the door and ran to the cliff that was near there house and hurled herself of the edge. Ankou stricken with grief returned home and found a note that was left by his mother and it described how that now that he was awake and okay she had no more purpose in life and that she was so heart broken she couldn’t go on. The one thing that stuck with him is the quote that she put at the end which was “Place your hand over your feel that? That’s called purpose you’re alive for a reason. Don’t give up.” Ankou went to his fathers and told him that he had become a man and was going to prove everyone that ever doubted him especially his father wrong.
Ankou then vanished and traveled the world for a century and returned back to his home with a new found purpose.
Ambitions for the Future:
While traveling the world Ankou had incountered many evils and made a pact to his mother, Ambisagrus and himself that he would do whatever he possibly could to stop these things that he had witnessed from happening to others and especially the people he would grow to love.
Personality:
Not a social butterfly but when he speaks people listen because it is usually something that is important to the conversation. Also very knowledgeable from the things that he had encountered while on his travels.

[b]Open-Response-Questions[/b]
[b]1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?[/b]
Answer: I would confront them in a calm and authoritative way. I would ask them what is going on and when they tried to cover up what they had been doing and when they finished telling me I would tell them to go home and that they should be ashamed. I would make sure nothing was wrong with the boy and tell him the quote my mother had told me in that letter and tell him that there is nothing he can’t do and to run along and continue on to where I was going.
[b]2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?[/b]
[b] [/b]Answer: I quickly help him up and give him his stick as well as his gold that had scattered on the ground. I would tell him that I will help him to the nearest inn or town. If he accepted I would walk him there and if he offered any payment I would decline it. However if he declined my offer I would watch him from a distance until he got to his next location just to be sure nothing bad happens to him.
[b]3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).[/b]
Answer: I walk over to the carriage and begin to inspect what he had to offer. If there was anything that caught my eye such as some food, a new bow or some arrows I would try haggling with him. I would try and get him to make a bundle package for what I wanted for example:
“I’ll give you 175 minas for the bow, 15 minas for the arrows and 5 for some of the food.” Having a stern look on my face.
“How about 210 for the bow, 20 for the arrows and 10 for the food.” With a hint of cockiness in his voice.
“I’ll go 220 for all of it and that’s my final offer.”
The merchant smiles and says “You got yourself a deal.”
I say “Thanks and be careful out there the worlds crazy” with a smile on my face. And we part ways.

Full Name: Faiz Kharadeen
Current Age: 21
Sub-race (if any): None.
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): "Well, lets start out with the basics shall we? My name is Faiz Kharadeen, I am part of a small family, living a normal average life. I have a father, a mother, and two younger brothers. We are humble worshipers of God. We live within the city of Kingston, since my father is but a humble merchant. " (Oh and if you were wondering what Faiz meant if meant anything at all, its Hero.)
" In my younger years, I was taught by my uncle how to use a sword and bow. He taught me the arts of stealth , secrecy, and strength. You might even say he taught me the ways of the assassin.. *wink* Even though he was just a Corporal in the army, he knew what he was doing. It's because of him that I am a stronger man. Before his untimely death due to the war, he told me to continue to follow my dreams, to help those in need when needed, something he couldn't do due to the restrictions of the army. I later soon found his journal, which told of how he was a fond believer of peace, which motivated me greatly, even though it was a bit ironic."
"My family lived a happy life, but we weren't apart of the middle or upper class. Even though we were fairly poor, my father taught me to be generous and kind to others, because one day they'll be kind and generous to you. I noticed when I was young there are many hard ships and troubles people had to face, especially the poor. I felt bad, I wish I could change everything where everyone was happy, and so once I reached the age of 20, that is when I realized what I want to do. Not inherit my fathers business, but to help others in their quest for happiness and peace. If we can live in a world of peace, think of everything we could accomplish together! We can feed the hungry and the poor, we can advance our ways of technology and make life easier upon us, we can have less deaths upon the innocent, we can truly have happiness. But, sadly that goal is far from my reach because of my class, so I shall do the next best thing... I shall travel across the lands and seas and help those in need, and save those in trouble."
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] To create a world of peace and happiness.
Personality:[/b] A kind, happy, loving, and generous man that no one has a problem with. Also has a humorous side to him.
Skills:[/b] Ability to negotiate greatly and end conflicts in peace. Can deliver motivating speeches as well. +Strength, endurance, and extensive weaponry skills. Also has knowledge in math and is literate.

[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer:
me: "Hmm... Seems to me we have some trouble..."
*I carefully use my skills to get near them without alerting them*
me: "Ahem. Excuse me gentlemen, but may I ask what you are doing to this poor defenseless man?"
( The bandits jump and draw out their weapons in shock"
Bandit 1: "Who are YOU? What are you doing here?!"
Bandit 2: "Give us all your money or else!"
Me: " I shall do nothing of the sort. Leave this poor man, otherwise we're going to have a problem."
Bandit 1+2: "HAHAHA!"
Bandit 2: "What are you going to do with that measly iron sword? Whittle us a bow?
Me: " No not at all, but if you'd like, I can show you what I CAN do with this sword."
Bandit 1: "I've had enough of your insolence!"
Bandit 2: "Lets just kill him and take his possessions. "
(Bandit 1 and 2 leap out at Faiz with their sharp swords, but Faiz can tell they have never used a sword before) (Faiz withdraws his sword quickly and takes his stance, sword raise high waiting for the first strike. Bandit 1 swings low, and thats where Faiz notices his footing mistake. Faiz swung his sword upon bandit 1 sword and bandit 1 stumbles a bit, then Faiz swung once more to disarm him, causing bandit 1 to fall to the ground.)( Bandit 2 was carefully trying to sneak up behind Faiz, but the old man realized this and yelled to Faiz "Behind you!" Bandit 2 swung towards Faiz head, but with the help of the old man, Faiz quickly ducked, rolled to grab bandit 1's weapon and stood. Faiz could tell by this bandit's footing that he has some skill in him, so he had to be careful. Bandit 2 came fast on the attack against Faiz and swung his sword from up high. Faiz side swept to the left and was waiting for the opportunity. Bandit 2 swung ferociously at Faiz, but wasn't able to get any hits on him, Faiz was to fast for him. Faiz then threw in the air the sword he acquired from the first bandit to confuse the second bandit, who instinctively looked up, which was his mistake. Faiz then punched him in the side of the face and swung his sword upon his to disarm his enemy. He then kicked the bandit upon his chest which caused the bandit to sway back.)
me: "Now then, since you are clearly defeated be off, otherwise I'll be forced to take your life."
(The bandits, frustrated at their defeat, get up and leave with haste.)
me: "Im terribly sorry about that sir, I hope they didn't cause you any trouble"
Old man: "Oh thank you very very much! Is there any way I could repay you?"
me: "No, its alright don't worry about it. Here, take these swords, so that if they ever come back again you can scare them off with these.
*Hands old man the bandit's swords*
Old man: "Thank you young man. Tell me, what is your name?"
me: "The name is Faiz good sir, it was a pleasure meeting you but I must be off. Have a good day!"
old man: "You too! Thanks again!"
[b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).[/b]
Answer:
(As I walk across the capital, I come across a merchant selling a variety of things. The first thing that caught my eye were a couple of old books scribed "God's will" and "Book of Heroes".)
merchant: "Ahh, hello sir! I see that you are interested in these here books.."
me: "Why, yes I am! They seem very old and interesting... Tell me, how much for both?"
merchant: "How much are you willing to offer?"
me: "No particular amount really..."
merchant: "Hmm... How does 20 menas sound?"
me: "Hmm.. Sounds decently fair-"
merchant: "I mean 15 menas! That's a good deal for these two books! If you don't think so I'll be willing to haggle down the price for you..."
( I can tell he is really trying to get rid of these books... Why?... Upon closer examination I notice that his coin pouch is very very small, and that his clothes are a bit torn.. It seems to me his business is taking a toll for the worse and that he's trying very hard to feed himself and his family...)
me: "Alright you got yourself a deal sir! 15 menas for the two books!"
merchant: "Very good sir!"
(I hand him the sack of coins and he hands me the books)
me: "Thank you very much!"
merchant: "No no, thank you! Come again, tell your friends!"
(As the merchant grabs the coin pouch off the table, he notices it to be a bit heavy...)
merchant: "What the?... Oh god please no... Don't tell me I got ripped off.."
(The merchant then opens the pouch and puts his hand to retrieve whats inside)
merchant: " Why... It can't be!... There must be at least 250 menas in here! I- I can't believe it! I mean, but why? This has to be a mistake!"
( He open the pouch and looks again inside to find a little papyrus note that said "Tis not a mistake.")

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer:I see the the eerie man and yell to the guards "get that man" but he starts running and the quards in their 20 pound armour cant catch up to him so I run after him it's easy almost too easy I'm catching up to him by the mili-secon. Then he stops and catches his breath thats when I'm on him in a second. The man pleads for his life like I'm a murderer the guards are there in a minute and take him with them. But as their leaving the more plump one throws me a few coins and says "for the emperors life" (not that it's enough anyway.)
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer:When I see the man and the two bandits i calmly walk to them and ask the bandits " what are you doing" one of them says get I should get away before we hurt YOU. So I say "No" and that's what sets them off one of them goes to punch me in the gut while the other pulls his sword out of his scabbard I block the punch and kick him in the knee he screams like a little girl and I hear the bone go backward and through the back of his knee joint. But by this time the other bandit was in his fighting position but I could just tell this ones more experienced. He fakes a jab at my side and instead kicks me where you should never bee kicked. I fall to the ground and the bandit is about to stab me in through the heart when I see the small iron blade pierce through the bandits chest after we get him off I sing a jolly tune and throw the old man my extra dagger and my helmet "thank you kind sir" and I'm off.

Answer:I walk over to the man and ask if he has any small non-used books he says yes for 2 I could get it for 16coins. I then say "how bout 10 but I'll throw in my extra boots." The man the replies "No 11 and your boots and I'll give you 4 apples, deal ?" I say "Deal, oh I see you have some lamb in the corner 6 money and I'll throw in some spices." He pauses thinking "Oh all right just don't waste my lamb." As I leave I see the old man and throw him some extra coins "keep the change!" I say in pity.

Full Name: Rowan Collins
Current Age: 23
Sub-race (if any): None
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Rowan was born in the Holy Oren Empire. Where Leif (his father) was a well respected farmer. And his mother stayed home educating Rowan. Rowan's family was not extremely poor nor middle class. They lived in a small cottage just outside of the Holy Oren Empire where you could see the wheat fields glister in the day and darken in the night. Leif wanted the best for his family and did what ever he could do to achieve that.
By that age of 11, Leif wanted Rowan to help with the wheat fields. But, Rowans mother said "No, he is too young...." After 2 years Leif wanted Rowan in the wheat fields, and Rowans mother agreed. At first Rowan did not feel accustomed to the long dry days and labor intensive work. But after a while Rowan did not mind it until about a year. Rowan did not like to do the same thing over and over again. After work Leif would always tell stories to Rowan about his earlier days (30's) where he sailed, mined, and even farmed... Leif was a strong influence in Rowans beliefs. Rowan wanted to explore the world just like his father did. Rowans goal in life was to explore and benefit from all of Anthos. Rowan made countless friends in the big gates of the Holy Oren Empire. Although he made tons of friend Rowan was to lazy to keep strong relationships, and most did not work out.

Rowan looks for different strange jobs all the time. Rowan mostly does not feel the need to settle down in one job until it is the right time. Rowan wants to build a name for himself and his family. Right now Rowan goes across the lands of Anthos only in the east has Rowan discovered and found most of the villages and settlements.

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: Rowan looks at the dark-clothed figure inspecting his shoes to his hood. Rowan then comes to decide he is up to no good. Rowan looks at the guards, noticing they do not see him. Rowan then thinks weather he should act and say something or not do something at all. Rowan looks down at his feet noticing the light is getting darker. Rowan then thinks in his mind that he does not want to make any trouble. Rowan then leaves, continuing his work. He walks by the guards trying to avoid eye contact so that he will not fell guilty about his decision.
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer: Rowan looks over his right shoulder and sees an old man. Rowan then looks at the old man kneeling in front of a stone that looks like a weird mushroom. Rowan then turns his head a little and sees two heavily armed bandits. Knowing the bandits will hurt the old man. Rowan stands there silently waiting to see what happens. After 2 minutes nothing happens... And Rowan is forced to make a decision. Rowan thinks that even though there are two bandits and Rowan is equipped with a iron longsword he saids, "I am no hero, and certainly not a fighter". Rowan then tries to reinforce his decision of not acting by thinking that he will die if he does it and that this is how humanity works. Rowan then looks ahead into the never ending dark trail. Rowan takes a step... another step..... and another step.... Then stops and looks back at the old man and bandits. Thinking that if you do act you will get hurt or die. Rowan then looks forward with a hunched back and continues to walk slowly into the mist of the dark forest.
[b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colorful stall.

Answer: Rowan walks in the town square when at a slight glance, Rowan sees a colorful stand. Rowan approaches the stand carefully thinking of what he will get. Rowan looks at the stall keeper and looks back down at the collection of general goods... The stall keeper saids "Hello Traveler" in an intent to be nice. Rowan then saids "Hello" while trying to find something he likes. Then! Rowan sees a big iron axe and see's the sunlight hitting off it. Rowan saids with excitement "May I see that axe please?" The stall keeper picks up the axe with a little trouble then hands it over to Rowan. Rowan looks at the stall keeper in agreement then looks at the axe slowly. Rowan starts at the top and goes to the bottom. Rowan finds the axe is some what rusty and the handle looks used because of a chip in the wood. Rowan then asks the stall keeper without trying to arouse suspension. "Is this iron axe new?" the stall keeper saids with confidence. "Oh..... sure it is". Rowan then thinks to himself if he should cause any trouble. Rowan thinks that it might be stolen, but also thinks that it just might be used for one tree. Rowan then looks at the stall keeper who looks like he is sweating. And saids "okay I will give you 5 barleys of wheat for this axe." the stall keeper saids "Whoa that axe is new , that is not a fair price!" Rowan then saids quietly without alerting everyone. "Well... This axe looks a little rusty and has a chip on the wooden handle." Rowan then looks at the stall keeper straight in his eyes. The stall keeper looks at the guards near by with suspension and saids "Okay". Rowan thinks the axe is stolen but after he bought the axe he doesn't want to cause any trouble. Rowan then leaves to go back on his journey.

Complete the following biography on your character:
Full Name: Astrimarus Vandercor
Current Age: 22
Sub-race (if any): Northerner.
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Astrimarus comes from a long line of blacksmiths and farmers. He spent his childhood learning from his father, Salthor, how to be a blacksmith. He learned all of the tricks of the trade from him. He lived in the settlement of Arethor just a block away from the Saint Everard Cathedral with his mother, father, and his two sisters. The two sisters learned from their mother. Astrimarus was oldest of the three and the most calm. He never got along with them but he loved them with all of his heart.
Just a day before the Feast of Spring was to come, at the age of 12, Astrimarus was working some chain mail with his father a band of unknown raiders came storming through the town. Destroying the whole village, kidnapping people. Including, his father. He became full of anger and depression. The rest of the family had minor injuries and scars and bruises. A search was conducted by some of the towns folk and a few guards. They searched for weeks and weeks, but still no trace. Astrimarus trained himself further into becoming a master blacksmith such as his father for the rest of his life. For 2 years, he was smithing a mighty sword made of a strong metal. It was still unknown to him on what it was. His father had used it for nearly everything. He said to him, "Son, when you are ready, I will tell you the true secret behind my smithing, and what this mysterious material is."
A few years later, the same raiders stormed the town again. This time he was ready. He drew the very sword he had been smithing. The raiders stopped dead in their tracks. The leader of the pack unmounted his horse and said in a deep voice, " Ah you must be the son of Salthor, Astrimarus right?" "Yes." He replied in an angered voice. The chief then raised his hammer and spoke, "Then you shall die." The two battled for hours when a rock hit the chief from another direction. Astrimarus quickly dashed into the wild and hid. He knew what he had to do.

____
[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: I quickly sprint to the hooded man. Tackle him to the ground, and remove all weapons from his person. As I draw my sword I yell at him, "What are your intentions or I will slay you! You are lucky I am in a decent mood today or I would have slit your throat and left you to the maggots." If he attempts to run I shall silence him. I grab a metal pair of bindings I created from my satchel and bring him to the guards at once.
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer: I would pick up a small rock near the house and throw it in the window at a wall inside the house. As one of the bandits from inside the house come out to investigate I quickly snap his neck and lay him behind an oak tree. As the other bandit calls for his friend I run into the cottage from behind and declare, "Leave this man alone or else you shall feel my blade. You will not be assisted in this battle, your companion is already out side taking in eternal sleep in the void." As the bandit charges I quickly draw my sword and disarm the foe as I lung for his heart. I walk back inside of the cottage and tell the old man to be careful and that I require no reward.
[b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).[/b]
Answer: As being mostly courteous, I see a finely crafted Elven sword. "Aye, this is a fine blade of great quality, I shall pay you with 30 gold." He declares, "Heavens no, this blade dates back to the ages of Malin himself! This be worth 70 at the least!" I correct him with my knowledge of smithing, "Good sir, I am an advanced blacksmith, I have been studying blades and armor since I was a child. This blade dates back only about 10 years, this blade does not have the mark of the first elven smiths only a more common mark of elvish blades now a days." The shop keeper admitted to the truth of the fine blade and says,"I am sorry sir about my lies. I hope you can forgive me." I reply, "It is not a problem, I can see that you have not much money, I shall pay you 40 gold." I leave 40 gold on the empty weapon case the blade was in and walk away.

One day, as was his routine, he went out for a walk with his older brother, which was his favorite daily activity becasue he revered his brother. After a few miles, they chance upon some orcs fighting a fellow dark elf. His brother immedietely engages the toughest of the orcs, only to be slain.

Upon asking the human nursing him, he finds out that a farmer found him half-dead by the side of the road and brought him there. After thanking the farmer and taking his leave, he returns to Manilor, but his family is gone. He is still searching for them and for the orc, to avenge his brother.

____
[b]1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Uponinspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?[/b]
Answer: I walk up, introduce myself and ask them to stop. If they do not comply, i challenge them to a non-lethal fist fight. If they win, I'll walk away and pretend it didn't happen, but if I win, they leave and never bully the child again. After a short brawl, they yield and leave without another word. I ask the child if there is anything further I can do. And then continue on my way.
[b]2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. Hecollapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there,defenseless - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: I ask him if he is ok, then I help him to his feet, collect his coins and return them to him and offer myself as an escort to his destination.
[b]3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).[/b]
Answer: I walk over, inspect his wares and select an iron sword and iron armour as I only purchase what I need. However, I think that his price is unreasonable. I ask him to lower the price but he flatly refuses, saying he needs every coin he can get. I then pull out a gold coin and ask him to pick a side of it, saying that if it lands with my side showing I name the price and vice versa. After flipping it, my side is showing and I walk away pleased with my purchases.

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Acting out a part you aren’t, such as an elf, orc, or other mythical creatures. Usually involves a made-up character that you ‘roleplay’ as.
Meta-gaming: When you know something that you haven’t roleplayed out. For example, say Kit the human was going to betray Mutty the orc, but Mutty the orc knew he was going to kill him. So Mutty killed Kit.
Power-emoting: Something that you say happens but really doesn’t such as *Kashe stabs Wutang* *Wutang dodges Kashe* Greatly enhances the roleplaying experience. Can also be used by doing the /me command in minecraft.

Full Name: Kashe Qu
Current Age: 18
Sub-race (if any): N/A
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Kashe was born in Abresi, he lived in a small house, with not many belongings. Kashe’s father died when Kashe was only two due to the plague. Kashe’s mother raised him for eight years alone.
When Kashe was only 4 years of age his family lost all of their money and belongings to a thief, they were forced to live out on the streets. He suffered many sicknesses and hardships on the streets. In these hard times, Kashe's mother resorted to prostitution for the extra money. But there was one thing that changed all of these things, a young boy named Matheus.
It was a stormy night when Kashe was sitting on the streets, not doing anything. Just thinking, thinking about his family, and life. Then a boy about his age walked past him, the boy stared at Kashe for a few moments and not long after said curiously, “Hey, are you hungry?”
Kashe nodded almost immediately, the boy handed him a loaf of bread. Matheus sat down next to Kashe and started up a conversation.
“So what’s your name?”
With his mouth full of bread Kashe replied, “Kashe… Kashe Qu.”
“Well Kashe Qu, it’s awfully cold tonight how about you come by my place for the night?”
Kashe looked up at Matheus with joyful eyes. From that day on, Kashe and Matheus were best friends.
Kashe and Matheus grew together like brothers, they did everything together. Kashe and Matheus were looking forward to one particular thing, Matheus’ birthday party. 6 months later, it was Matheus’ birthday party. Kashe and Matheus were having the time of their lives, lots of friends were over and even some adults. Matheus’ mother told Kashe and Matheus to fetch some wine and water for the guests. When they came back everything was wrong. They walked into the door, everyone was dead. Blood was all over the place. Matheus knelt down next to his parents and began weeping. Kashe put an arm around him. Matheus then said.
“Kashe… lets make a promise”
Kashe replied “A promise…? What kind of promise?”
“A promise that when we meet again we will both be strong… so none of these things will ever happen, and when they do… we’ll be strong about it.
Kashe begin to slowly cry. Realizing his parents were dead as well. He walked towards them. Then
replied saying,
“When we meet again? What do you mean when we meet again? I will always be with you.”
“For now, we go our separate ways” Matheus chokes, “And try our best to fulfill our promises. Besides if I have you I won’t be able to become strong.”
Kashe felt an ache in his heart. So great he couldn’t bear it, he began to weep, so loud the whole
city could hear it. But finally after a few minutes of crying. He got up, and embraced Matheus, he then walked away turned back. Matheus waved back, bright red cheeks, and tear eyes. And shouted, “Farewell brother!”
Kashe was impacted by this forever. Kashe was put into foster care, he jumped from place to place quickly due to his lack of social skills. Finally when he was 12 he was taken in by his master. Vex Tung, trained heavily with Axes and stealth. Vex taught Kashe many things about these two war elements. Vex Tung died when Kashe was 16, he left Kashe all of his belongings and his house.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] Meeting up with his childhood friend Matheus, and to fulfill his promise with him, to be strong no matter what happens. Maybe even join a knighthood, or create one.’
Personality:[/b] You could say Kashe isn’t the brightest person to be around, not having his parents around for half of his life has definitely had a large impact on him. He hasn’t learned most of life’s lessons, and isn’t the best with social skills. Although troubled in social skills he’s great working with himself or people he has been close with for a long time.
Skills:[/b] Kashe is greatly skilled in the arts of the Ax. Being taught by Vex Tung greatly increased his
skill. Kashe is very skilled at being stealthy as well. He has forbidden himself to pickpocket or steal, but it does come in handy.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b] http://oi43.tinypic.com/2uy66qc.jpg
Tan, short dark hair.
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b]
Kashe is rather a strange person, he doesn’t respect your privacy, is blunt, and is just
different to be around. He might be mean at first, you just need to get to know
him.

answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
___
1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?
Answer: I sprint towards the guards, and tell them about the man.
Kashe: “Excuse me guards, but do you see that man in the black?”
Guards: *Nods*
Kashe: “I believe he’s trying to assassinate the emperor, or anyone.”
Guards: “Civilian, we’ll take care of this. Thank you for the information.”
Kashe then walks away and looks back towards the black figure. The guards are running his way. The black figure also begins running. Kashe decides to disobey the guards orders and also try chasing him down. But fortunately the guards are able to take down the black figure. The black figure takes out a knife and stabs one of the guards. The other guard jumps back and gets his longsword out. He shouts Guard: “By the name of the Empire, you are under arrest!”
The Black Figure then stabs toward the guard but the guard easily dodges, and cuts his arm off.
2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron ax, how do you react? (I changed it to an ax to make it fit my roleplaying
character, I hope that’s okay)
Answer: I run towards the old man, hoping to aid him in this great time of need. As I near the bandits back I shout at them,
“Filthy bandits, stealing from an old man are we?”
“Easy pickings.”
“You’re done stealing from this old man.”
I take my ax out and hold it at battle stance, ready for anything to happen. The two bandits began attacking me, and it takes all of my strength to stop them. Just as Kashe can’t hold out any long the two bandits are struck down by the old man.
“Thank you for the help adventurer.”
Kashe walks away without a word.
3. You are standing within the
mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of
general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).
Kashe: “How much for the Diamond Ax?”
Merchant: “300 Minas.”
Kashe: “I’ll take it for 150.”
Merchant: “That’s nearly half off!?!”
Kashe: “But I only have 150 Minas”
Merchant: “But that cost me 200 Minas to make! I’d be losing 50 Minas me boy.”
Kashe: “If you want my business you’ll let me buy it for 150 Minas.”
Merchant: “Fine, 150 Minas, but this is the only deal I’m making you!”

Full Name: Nicholas Strongwing
Current Age: 22
Sub-race (if any): None.
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Nicholas grew up in a small village near the capital by the name of Ager; he had no siblings and little for himself. They lived off the little Nick's father made from his leather work. All the kids around him where already training to be warriors or guards, if you couldn't bash someone's head in with it they weren't interested. He never felt like he fit in. His mother taught him how to read at a young age, saying, "The ability to read is greater than knowing the correct form for swinging a blade." His father wanted Nicholas to be a merchant, or a smith, or a warrior, but Nick wasn't interested. He wanted to do what he loved: writing stories, crafting poems, and playing the music he so loved. At age ten he bought a mandolin with the money he earned working at the local general goods store, and at age eighteen he ran away from his dreadful village and moved to a big city. All he took where his mandolin, his reed pipes, a journal, and a dagger.
During his flight from Ager, the only thing that kept him company in that forest was his music. After living off the land for four days Nicholas found what he was looking for. Abresi. He went to the city once before, for his uncle's funeral, a dull affair. It only took him two days by cart, and he remembered the route. When he arrived at the city he found his widowed aunt and moved in with her. She didn't ask why he turned up at her front door looking for a home, he knew her nephew, he knew he was unhappy where he was. His parents knew it too, they never looked for him, they knew he would be okay. Nicholas got a job at, again, a general goods store. He truly was a great salesman, he could talk a stubborn dwarf into buying an elven weapon. He never spent a single bit of minas. He saved up from his job at the shop and playing music at pubs and inns for two years. On the morning of his twenty-first, Nicholas took all the minas he had and bought adventuring gear: sword, clothing, a map of Anthos, and food. He left Abresi without a goodbye to his aunt, not even a note. She knew where he was though. She knew his need for an adventure.
Nicholas didn't know where he was going, so he went back to the only place he knew. His old home. He traveled in that direction for only two days this time. He went into his old cabin, but nobody was there. Nick left a coin purse full of minas on the table. He set off and traveled again, in no specific direction, just away from where he was.
It didn't take him long to start living his dream. He traveled all over meeting new people and performing songs or reading his stories for people. His job pays little coin, but he does what loves as well. He hasn't made a name for himself quite yet, but he is surely on his way.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] He doesn't really have any sort of ambitions. He
wants money, but he wants to be recognized as a musician, poet, and story
teller. He wants to keep adventuring, be he has yet to go on a true quest. He
still wants the thrill he tells of in his stories: slaying dragons, storming
castles, being a hero.
Personality:[/b] He is a friendly person, though he is quite
manipulative. He knows what he can achieve, and he can talk you into doing his
will without you even knowing it. He is an artist, never felt like he fit in
with the warriors and strong men he grew up around. He is very sarcastic when
he speaks.
Skills:[/b] His music is enchanting, can calm the wildest
beast and those who hear are like they are under a spell. He is quite slick
with a blade, as any adventurer should be, and he is extremely charismatic, can
talk himself out of a murder even if he had the bloody blade in his hand, not
that he would ever need to.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b] Nicholas has dark hair and dark eyes. He often has a bit of grime on his face from traveling and his finger nails are riddled with dirt. He usually wears a mix of leather and cloth. He keeps his reed pipes
on his belt and his mandolin on his back. (I was having an issue with Imgur, I am completely new to it and when I tried doing anything with an image it wouldn't let me post).
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b] On the topic of crime: Nicholas has the capability of killing if it is justified, he is smart with a blade but has yet to use it to cause heavy damage. If someone falls and spills their coin, he will help them up, gather their coins, but may slip a couple in his pouch and walk off.

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what doyou do?[/b]
Answer: Tonight by the palace as I was walking to the inn, I saw a man dressed in black. I couldn't catch a glimpse of his face, but I know he was shady. I am hoping he was just some citizen or traveler, maybe trying to set up a deal of alchemy ingredients. I wasn't going to say anything, not just accuse this man because he was looking suspicious, even if the guards were around. Leave it to someone else to take care of the guy, I just hope I made the right choice. I will find out in the morning.
[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]
Answer: I was venturing through a thick forest, quite beautiful. The bark was a deep brown and leaves a vibrant green, the leaves for thick and the sun could hardly poke through. It was so beautiful I could live there one day, I really could. I was walking along, playing my reed pipes and stomping my feet on the dead leaves, when I met a clearing in the forest. A small stone cottage with a thatch roof, and at the doorway was a weak man. By him were two, human bandits, wearing iron armor and wielding steel blades. I couldn't take them alone, apparently the Dwarves aren't big on music and poetry and I didn't make one bit of coin there, so I
sold some of my belongings for some extra coin. I walked over to the bandits, still playing a tune on my reeds, then put it back on my belt. I said, "Excuse me, but let me introduce myself; my name is Nicholas, Nicholas Strongwing. Musician, Poet, adventurer, you've surely heard of me, haven't you? May I ask what the matter is, a bit of a scuffle here I see?". "Ya mate," the first bandit says, "This man here did not pay the taxes he owes." "Look," I said, "We both know you two are no tax collectors, this is obviously a scam, but tell you what, I'll let you off on a break and no guards are notified, okay? You don't exactly want to scuffle with me either." I showed no fear, if they sense fear you are dead. They walked off, quite furious, but they left. I told the old man, "Not all fights are won with a blade and a well-placed arrow." I walked back into the forest,
and as I left I heard a faint "thank you young man." That made my day, it truly did.
[b]3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggleand choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).[/b]
Answer: This morning I got up
early to buy some equipment. I recently made some gold at the local inn playing
my mandolin and telling stories, and had enough to buy some of the stuff I had
to sell back at that Dwarven village. I needed a new sword, and some decent
boots. A traveler like me does a lot of walking on his feet you know, and you
have to invest in some quality boots or your feet will be sore like a *****. I
walk over to this small old man, "What would you be looking for here lad?
I've got food, , weapons, maps, everything a traveler like you may need."
"And how would you know me as a traveler my friend?" I said. "Oh
your worn out fur boots and dirty hands gave it away, you can tell a lot about
a man by his hands. Anyway, being observant is an important part of being a
salesmen. Anyway I am assuming you would like some of my fine leather boots,
maybe a better blade than that iron you have there? Elven steel perhaps?"
"How much would those cost, I am on quite a budget." That merchant
chuckled like he saw an Orc in a dress, he said, "I heard you at the inn
last night, you buy me a drink and tell me a fine old story and I'll give you
what you want." I let out a grin, sometimes a charming personality can get
you more than you might expect. "You are very kind, I'll meet you at the
inn tonight."
