"Did someone refer you?: no" - I doubt you both just found the forum together, one of you must have said "hey lets both apply for this one" :tongue.gif:
Thank you. But I would love to hear what errors you found. I like to keep improving myself.
At the age of 21 Davorn left the town he grew up in. It was not really his choice, but he simple had to. Never did he expect to be thrown out by the mayor, even less by his parents. Although he left his parents house some time ago, Davorn always thought he'd be welcome there. But, that wasn't the case anymore.
It were his eyes that gave him away. Their bright yellow color spooked many of the townsfolk. He used to be a ranger of profession, spending much of his time in the woods. That is where he found out he could feel the thoughts of some of the animals around there. It started with the wolves; Davorn would hide when he knew wolves where close by. Not that time. He felt their greeting and waited for them. But it was just the beginning.
After he started to spend more and more time outside and talking less to the other villagers, people started to wonder what was going on with Davorn. When suddenly someone noticed his yellow eyes, the town quickly became to small for him. Before long people started shouting at him and trying to make him leave. At the end the mayor simply told him he was no longer one of them and that he had to leave. So, Davorn packed his gear and left. He tried to visit his parents one last time, but they never opened their door anymore.
So, after he got off the boat he took to get as far away from his old town as possible, Davorn found himself in a strange town on the edge of a big island. Was this to be his new home? Would these people accept him for who he was? All he knew was that living on his own in the woods made him handy with tools and capable of crafting almost any tool you could think of. So that would have to be his living for now.
Corrections in red Not sure whats wrong but doesn't sound right in italics
In general it feels a little stop-start... lots of full stops. Lei is the grammar queen I'm sure he'll mention more but I know he's busy in game probably helping you get started :smile.gif:

Land/Town:Tenebrae
Job:Toolsmith
Bio*:At the age of 15 my parents sent me to the army, where we were taught to take care of ourselves.. We could all choose our favorite weapon and train with it.
Every day, they kept telling us that teamwork is essential; and so they gave us our first assignment..
They were going to leave us behind in the middle of the forest with nothing but each other..
At first this seemed impossible, until we started to starve.. At that moment, our survival instincts made us chop down the nearby trees with our bare hands, make tools out of that wood and we started killing pigs and cows and much more.. But we couldn't have done this without each other.. I, for instance, created the tools; while John, one of my comrades, made us armor.. After a day or 2 they came back and told us we had completed the assignment.
We were all so happy and partied all night long..
The next day, I woke up on the ground of a small town.. An old man walked towards me and asked me if I was alright.
He gave me shelter, gave me food.. But I was still thinking about what happened that night, and how I got here..
But the old man noticed something was troubling me so he gave me my very own shop for my 23rd birthday, where I could create tools for the citizens of Tenebrae.
From that day on, I started my new life.. As a toolsmith, to serve the land.
I understand the issues. The only things in red are missing comma's and the like. Glad nothing big came up. English isn't my main language you know. I just thought I did pretty well.
The Italics part I also understand. That should have been a second part of that sentence: Davorn would hide when he knew wolves where close by, but not that time.
Also the stop-start thing I think I understand. I read somewhere before that you like more paragraphing...so I tried my best. It looks like I tried a little too hard.
By the way...if Lei is a he...shouldn't it be Grammar King?
In that case, you did quite well! and yeah, that does make more sense. Either that or a hyphen (-)
By more paragraphing, we mean more than one paragraph. Look at some of the other apps... they are one paragraph long and rubbish. Even the 10 year old denied above did better than those, because even just two paragraphs means it almost always better. But your app was good :smile.gif:
Lei is a he, but "Grammar Queen" is just like "Drama Queen" - sometimes overreacts a little but still a good person to have around :smile.gif: Its just a little joke

They where coming what seemed to be into my house, but no they couldn't why would they, I have never done anything wrong. But they kept coming, so I ran off to try and find something, but with my luck all I had was a bow but it was old and the string was broke. They came in and rushed me but I tied and fought them off, both the men ran off and I was standing there in a bloody pool no one had died but I knew then that something worse was going to happen.

Bio*: As a child my parents kept me a secret. They did not want anyone to know of me, because they were assassins. My father by choice and my mother was forced into it. As assassins they were well-known, but much hated. Anyone who could do anything to capture them would be paid large amounts of money. They soon realized that a child was going to weigh them down, and had to go into hiding. They knew a day would come, and so they taught me many things. And found that I had a good eye for spotting the unseen. But then the day came...
All I remember is at 17 years old the door breaking down in our cave-hidden house. My father fought off the first few who came through the door, only to be slain by an arrow. My mother was taken by the people, and they bound me and dumped me in the forest. I was supposed to die, but I chewed on the ropes around my legs, and used branches and trees for the ropes on my arms.
For my whole life I had been hiding, so I already knew how to live in a forest. And with plenty of time on my hands, I had plenty of time to think. I thought of how the guard said they were to hang my mother, but I found she was being used as a slave. I knew revenge was not the way to go, so I vowed to protect and serve the opposing realm. And I will go to my limits. I took on the name Roulace. Revenge will be taken, in my hands or someone else's. 24 yrs old today...

Just needed to ask, what can an armorer sell? I've tried leather caps, iron swords, bows, arrows, tnt, and it says I cannot make that kind of shop. I did buy a shop plot... (sorry, I also asked on facebook...)

You need a house plot before a shop plot. Once you have both you just need to let a mod know and we activate shop selling for you.
I know its a little annoying, but we had people setting up random shops without buying a plot, which was annoying people who did have shops, they voted on this method instead. We can do it when you're offline too so let me know on the facebook page when you have both plots and I'll do it :smile.gif:
