By the time he was fifteen he was already in the mines slamming his pick into the stone everyday. But then a couple of years later the mines collapsed and he lost Rogdast to the rubble of the mine.
He had moved into the Army and kept on renting a room at an Inn in Karik. He had gone to war with the Orcs two times so far and only came back with a broken leg and a weak wooden walking stick.

Open-Response-Questions
Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short. Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? I push through the crowd of people. "I see ye have a very nice looking diamond on that piece of cloth over there." I tell the Dwarf. "Ye! she's a gorgeous one eh!" the Dwarf says. "How much would she cost?" I say to him. "A-thousand Minas" The Dwarf says in a quiet voice. I look at him in shock, considering he is the same race as me and he is 'poor' I will buy it. *pulls out a few bags of Minas out of his rugsack*. "Here ye go a thousand Minas!" I yell out to him while tossing it into his hand. *the Dwarf gives me the diamond*. I walk away and just as I turn around the corner to go to Arethor he yells out "Thankyou kind sir!" while waving to me.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? I walk up to the fight and I pull out my trusty blade and start slashing at the Orc but then the Orc takes out his spikey club and smashes it into the ground 2 feet away from me. I then slash is arm whilst he is pulling his club out of the ground. Then he yells "AHHHHHHHHH!" then he raises up his fist and I dive to the left and in the the way of the fist is the Dwarf that was fighting with the Orc. "CRUNCH!" the Orc smashed the Dwarf I got up and yelled "AHHHHHH!" and I stab my trusty sword into the Orc's belly, "POOMPH!" the Orc fell to the ground. Then I start to say my prayers for the Dwarf and bury him. After tyhe prayers I continue my adventure onwards.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: "Are ye ok?" I say to the old man. "Help!" He says. I pick up his Minas and I help the man up. I then help walk the man to Malinor. Once we get there I give him his Minas back but then the old man replies saying "No you can keep 'em" then Gnarlan replies saying "Ok thankyou very much... goodbye!" "Goodbye!" The old man yells to me as I walk away.

Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Pretending to be a character that isn't yourself with their own moral values and/or believe systems living in their own universe apart from this one. The release from this world and being able to be something totally new in a virtual one is something I've always found extremely enjoyable.
Meta-gaming: This is really a brief summarization of what I've read on Wikipedia to be honest. I've never heard of these terms before I submitted my first application to this server and it's been a while so I had to refresh my memory. So basically my understanding of it is, is that you can't use real world knowledge to take advantage of something in an RP world. An example of this would be if there was a holy and powerful sword in one of the Lord of the Rings books and the book gave the location, meta-gaming would be if you used the location in the book to find said sword on the server.
Power-emoting: I got my understanding of this term off of a wow wikia. This seems to be doing an action that can't be stopped via an emote. An example of this would be "KSUspartan drank all of Tom's beer than burned down his bar" if I emoted in this manner Tom would have no way of stopping me. The proper way of doing that emote would be "KSUspartan attempts to steal and drink all of Tom's beer" and then Tom could respond with something like "Tom calls the authorities" then if I still wanted to burn down the house I could do something along the lines of "KSUspartan attempts to burn down Tom's house in a drunken rage, but in his alcohol induced stupor he trips and hits his head on a brick thus passing out waiting to be apprehended by the authorities". In this way Tom has a chance of stopping me and avoiding the problem vs. him not being able to do anything about it.

Full Name:Togo Gamwich
Current Age:18
Sub-race (if any):Halfling
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): I am Togo Gamwich Halfling of the Vale and this is a brief journal of my life up to now. I had an average hobbit childhood, my parents are silly farmers living in their hobbit holes, we went to parties, harvested our crops, and ate delicious food. We would sometimes have parties in our modest hobbit hole and those were the best times of my life. Showing everyone around our home was so much fun. I always loved when I got to show our guests the pantry and they were amazed at how many delicious dishes my mother could make with just the wheat we grew in the front yard. She could make delicious sweet bread but our friends and family could never wait until dessert when she would put another one of her fabulous cakes on the table there would be gasps and salivating mouths everywhere you looked, it was amazing.
Since I have moved out of my parents hobbit hole I've been doing odd jobs here and there trying to safe up for a home to call my own. I'm not very good at saving the Minas I make though, it gets spent on mead the night after I earn at the very latest. Everyone also knows that know hobbit can come to a party empty handed so I spend some of my Minas on food to bring to parties also. I've recently been looking for an actual job so that I can make a more steady income to finally buy myself a place to call home.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] I would like to create a large wheat farm so that I'll always have bread on the table and be able to buy a pint or two of the Vale's mead every once and a while. I would also love to work, manage, or even open a bar I love the parties that occur in the Vale's bars and would love to one day be the one catering to one of them.
Personality:[/b] I'm fun-loving, hard working when I need to be, and I love to party.
Skills:[/b] I know how to hoe a farm, plant seeds, bake bread, and spend Minas faster than I can make it.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b]
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b] I'm trying to stop drinking as much as I do it's just kind of hard for me. All my friends and I go out and party whenever we can. But if I'm ever able to break my habit I will get myself my own home, farm/and or bar.

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards theEmperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer:If I noticed a dark-clothed figure going up to the Emperor's palace I would yell for the guards as loud as I could. As the figure is obviously up to no good and being a hobbit I wouldn't be able to stop them myself. Though I cannot think of any reason why I would be in the human's capital anyways unless I successfully opened up my bar and we had the best mead in all of Aegis. But I guess that is all besides the point anyways. If said figure realized I was yelling at the guards trying to get him apprehended and he turned to me, I would turn tale and run all the way back to the Vale and never return to the capital again unless their was a huge opportunity for profit involved.
[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: Not sure what the armour and longsword is for, I would drop the cumbersome armor and hide the longsword that is much larger than I am and approach the men. I would try to offer them some free mead in exchange for the man's life. If they were to agree I would give them the mead and then help the old man back to the Vale where we would tend to him and offer him a couple pints of mead until he recovers. Once he recovers I would give him some Minas and let him go wherever he pleases or maybe he could even stay if it is okay with my fellow hobbits.
[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: I wouldn't ask for any items at first. I would ask him if he would like to take a trip to the local tavern and I'd buy him some mead. I would continue doing this for several nights, I'd talk with him and show him a hobbit's good time. We would do this regularly for around 7 days. Then I would tell him I would soon be returning to the Vale and ask him if he had any bread, wheat, seeds, or home decor for sale. I would make sure that I got the best price possible because we would have become good friends by this time.

Full Name: Meira Dawnhorn
Current Age: 18
Sub-race (if any): 95% High Elf, 5% Wood Elf (all she gets from her Wood Elven blood is her hair color.)
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Meira was born to a High Elven mother, and a mix of a High and Wood elf father. She is nearly purely a high elf, however, her hair is from wood elven heiritage. She was born and raised in ArmaLuna, where her childhood was spent scavenging. She found many seashells, which she cherished throughout her childhood. Her mother was a nurse, and Meira spent lots of time around her, which is where she gets her slightly advanced medical know-how. She is an extremely good charismatic speaker, and has succeeded in convincing people she is a pure High Elf. Her father sold rare items, too, and whenever she wasn't out scavenging, or with her mother, she was with him, where she learned her sales knowledge. She also liked to look at his jewlery, which she wished she had some to own. That dream came true when she was 12..
As Meira scavenged along the area where the beach met some woodlands, she discovered a fox pawing at the ground. After startling the fox away, she found the fox had exposed the top of a black object. She dug around the object, revealing an small ebony box inlaid with fine iron engravings and locks. Opening the box, she found 2 bracelets, the chains made of polished silver and the gemstones made of rubies. She put the braclets on, took the box as well, and ran off in joy of her find. This sparked her passion for fine jewelry like the braclets she found, which she still wears today, as well as a desire to create it. After saving up money from scavenging, she went to Sean Bradshaw, master blacksmith of ArmaLuna, to take classes in fine metalworking with materials like gold and silver. She also learned how to handle and shape gems, like rubies, emeralds, diamonds, etc. to use in the jewelry she wants to make. She took these classes up until she was 16, when her father was killed by an agressive merchant who, after causing a ruckus in his store, was asked to leave. The man, enraged, stabbed Meira's father several time in the neck and chest, killing him. Meira greived for many months over her father's death, but promised to live life in his memory, following in his footsteps as a merchant. Meira, now 18, is ready to go out on her own, and start her own jewelry buisness, hoping to create and sell treasures as great as what she found 6 years ago.
Ambitions for the Future: Have a house, own a successful buisness.
Personality: Normal, but a good buisnesswoman. She likes friends, and she likes to be alone sometimes. She prides in her ability to spot out well-made objects, like her amulet bracelets. She rarely brags, and her most prized possession is her braclets.
Skills: Charisma, Medicine, Speech,Gem finding/working, Metalworking (like silver and gold, etc.)
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
She wears a silver and ruby braclet, and has dark brown sandals. Her skin is light, and her hair is a messy, long dark brown. She wears a green tunic and has a wide belt.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: Meira is to be regarded as a high elf, although she has wood elven blood. Again, she only gets her dark brown hair from her wood elven blood.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer: I yell at the group of High Elves in defense of the young child. "Brutes! Why are you harrassing this little child? We are all brothers and sisters of Malin, and there is no need to treat each other unfairly!" They look to me, and stop. "There is no need for this. You act like humans, always at each other's throats- for what, even?" The high elves tilt their heads, and shake them. "Exactly. Now go on your ways, and leave eachother alone." They nod, and the high elves leave. I continue on my way, until I am almost tackled. I turn around, and see the small Wood Elf child. "Thank you so much, miss!" He says, smiling. I smile back, and pat him on the head. "Now, run along, and stay safe, little one." He releases his hug, and I continue on my road as he goes along his.
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 run up to the man, staring at him. "Are you alright?" He shakes, but does not respond. I quickly help him back up, and hand him his walking stick, making sure he has a good grip on it. "Stay there." I direct the man. I lean down and take out a small cloth and some string, and put the Minas in the cloth. I bring the corners of the cloth together and tie them with the string, and hand the pouch with the gold coins back to the man. "Thank you," he says weakly, "Bless your kind heart." I smile, as he does, as he walks away. I notice a single gold coin still lying there. After pondering for a while, I take the coin, grin to myself, and walk along my way.
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 walk up to his caravan. "Do you have any silver or gold ingots and jewels, as well as sculpting nails?" He nods, and pulls out a golden ingot, a box of assorted jems, and the nail that I use to sculpt some of my jewlery. "How much for everything?" I ask, and he nods, smiling. "240 Minas." He says, and my jaw drops. "Listen;" I say. "I'm too poor to pay all that, and I want to sell these to other people." I smile. "Tell you what: Come by my store, and I'll give you half off of one piece of jewlery, IF you cut your price down to 90 Minas. Plus, I'll throw in this silver ring." I pull out a sterling silver ring, shined and polished. "Of course, 100 Minas it is, mlady." He takes the ring and I take out 90 minas, place them down, and i take the box of jems, the nail and the golden ingot, and put it in a bag, and continue on my way.

Role-playing: Role-playing is the act of pretending to be someone in a fantasy world.
Meta-gaming: Meta game is like you cheat by doing something that your character doesn't know but you know OOCly like, if someone is coming to kill your character, and you heard about it on TeamSpeak or skype, your character doesn’t know it, but you know OOCly, then your character leaves the place in order to survive, that is an example of metagaming. Metagaming is cheap because it lets you do things which your character shouldn’t be able to do, or know things your character shouldn’t know. .
Power-emoting: Power emoting is when a player do something to other player and the other player can’t react to it, like Player 1 cuts Player 2’s arm in a fight, it should be Player 1 ATTEMPT to slice at Player 2’s arm in a fight.This is to be fair and insure cooperative roleplay.

Full Name: Rowan Rolfe
Current Age: 28
Sub-race (if any): N/a
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Rowan grew up in a village on the outskirts of Alras, a thick mountain range bordering Seventis with his parents, he lived a very common life, his early childhood was spent playing with the other village boys and anticipating his dad’s return from the mines. He enjoyed fishing and the huge fairs which the nobles had put on to appease the peasants. At the age of 14, Rowan was deemed old enough to be a “man”. Thus, he put aside his playtime to aid his father in the mines. This was hard work for a young boy; because Rowan was young he often had to cramp himself in mine shafts to get the hard to reach coal. It was scary to be in the mines as they shivered and moved with every step the miners took, but with his father at his side Rowan felt comfortable.
As time went by, Rowan became an adept miner being able to extract all sorts of jewels and gems. He even was given a few peasant militia trainings to make sure his physical condition was kept sharp, though he never participated in war. He lived a good, steady humble life, aiding his parents, but soon his father became ill with coal-lung, a common sickness of the mines.
Thus, Rowan had to work double shifts to provide medicine for his father. For many years his father slowly withered away in sickness, not quite dying but forcing Rowan to work excruciatingly hard, finding no time to settle down and get married as most men do. But at last, when Rowan was 27, he returned home with a pale father speaking his last words. Rowan’s father pleaded with Rowan to explore the countryside and move away from the humble village, as the elder Rolfe felt he had wasted away much of Rowan’s youth in servitude. As the father passed away, Rowan’s mother urged him to heed his father’s words, as since Rowan did not need to pay for medicine anymore Rowan’s mother could support herself with weaving and saved money over the years.
Rowan took one of the first ships to Elysium, and he seeks to find a new life. Rowan seeks to find a new lord and enjoy a good happy life, unlike the hard years where he was the only money source.
[b]Ambitions for the Future:[/b] Rowan doesn't really have any ambitions; he does his jobs and enjoys life for what it is. He's just looking to have a good, easy, happy life with some adventures apart, not become king.
[b]Personality:[/b] He’s a little bit lazy and doesn't care about the bad things that happens in life; he just rolls with the punches as a peasant's life often has many punches and unfortunate events. He’s got a tough skin when these events happen; he’ll cope and learn. He’s not much of a talker; he’s managed to read and write but he prefers to keep to himself, a strong silent type, especially since he is embarrassed for his poor language skills. He is rooted in feudal tradition and understands his place as a pauper peasant, but he does appreciate a pat on the back. He’s smarter than he looks, but keeps to himself, preferring to mine his ores and survey the rocks of the land, protected by his lord. [b]Skills[/b]: His mining skill is his best ability; years of being with the earth has helped him mine and locate ores. He’s got a general skill in peasant work and labor, and given this rough lifestyle he’s developed a strong, lean body which is 1.78 meters and 83 kg, though he lacks fine swordplay skills to be a master swordsmen. He has a very good memory. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b]

[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 eyes raise up as he notices the glint of a dagger hidden in the robes of the dark-clothed figure. Clearly this man was up to no good; Rowan’s curiosity lead him to follow the figure. However, he was not foolish enough to go alone. Tipping off a guard near the situation, he slowly stalked the figure with the guard a fair distance away. The man turns around as he notices Rowan’s heavy footsteps and hisses “ off, dirty peasant!” Rowan eyes widen as he mutters “Aye, what ye’ got in yer pouch and by yer waist?” The guard then appears out of an alley and seizes the figure; after performing a quick search the guard finds poison and a dagger on his body. The guard gives rowan a small sum for catching an assassin who was trying to kill a Silverblade noble, and Rowan spends the money on drinks with his friends to celebrate.
[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 try to sneak off from the situation and then get help from someone else more prepared for the situation.But if he doesn't find help he won’t come back, he wouldn’t risk his life for someone he doesn’t know. As he strolls through the forest, he sees little human interaction and no sign of civilization nearby. Rowan assumes a slight jog, both to get further away from the situation and to try and find help. He then hears a loud yell in the distance as the old man dies. Rowan sighs, but realizes there was nothing he could have done; fighting would have meant he would have probably died too. He tries to make his way back to a safe village, disappointed but moving on
[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: Rowan spends his money on things that will help him in his mining work, and to defend himself, so he approach the man and says “What have ye’ got fer a humble miner who just want to do his job pretty well and protect himself?”, then the man show him his mining tools.Rowan begs for low prices, but the man want more expensive prices. Rowan is living off peasant wages, and unfortunately he has to decline the man’s price. Thus, Rowan walks off to plead with his lord, so he may get better tools.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer: I walk towards the perpetrators and say "Why are you mocking this child?" The High Elves stop and say "Well... We were just...." I say "I know what you were doing...." I say "Why where you mocking the child?!" One of the elves says "This child is inferior to us superior High Elves." The other elf says "We mock his inferiority" The elves kick the child and the child falls to the ground. I say "No!" I take the elf child by the hand and run back to safety. I say while we are running away from the high elves. "So.... Where is your mother?" The child says "Just over by the Malinor gate." "A couple streets down." I say "Sure.." I dash for the house. I say "Ok found it!" I then return the child to his mother.
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 say "Do you need any help old man?" The old man sputters and coughs and says "Yes..... I dropped my coins..." I say "I can see that." I say "I'll help you up." I attempt to help the man up by grabbing on the the walking stick that was in his and in lifting him by the stick. The old man attempts to get up but then falls down again. I say "Are you alright old fellow?" The man says "Fine fine...." "Just help me up will ya!" I say "Sure then...." I grab the old man's hand and I lift slowly and carefully. The man gets to his feet and I push him up slowly. The man finally get back to walking and gives me a little wink like he is saying "Thank-You."
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: The item is a beautiful new fishing rod. I am very tempted to buy it but reach into my pocket and discover I have little money. The man says "I see you don't have much...." I say "I'm afraid so.." The merchant says "I could haggle a fair price if you'd like...." I say "How about 50 mina." The Merchant says "I'm afraid not. 75 and we'll make it a deal!" I say "What about 60 mina?" The Merchant says "You'd have to throw something a little extra to get the price." I say "I'll throw in these fish hooks!" (I show him the fish hooks.) The Merchant says "Aye! My wife is a collector of various knick-knacks.... She'll love this!" (I hand him the fish hooks and the 60 mina and he hands me the fishing rod.) The merchant says "Thanks lad!" (I wave goodbye as a run back to my house to look at my new acquired fishing rod.)

A small note all of this connect so first 1 then 2 and then 3 happens.
1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer:
While taking a trip, Athrilirr hears a little boy whimpering. He decides to go and take a closer look; he climbs up a tree and looks down at the situation. It seems that a couple of High Elfs were mocking a Wood Elf; he knew they were High Elfs because of the
different skin color. Although Athrilirr is a pirate he does not tolerate someone mocking his kin, he decides to climb down and do something. So he climbs down and walks up slowly to the Elfs and grapes all the Elfs attentions, all of the High Elfs slowly creep up to him. Then suddenly they dash at him he grapes two of them and head-butt them with one another, the next two come and
then he moves to the side and they run into the trees. All of them were now lying down, Athrilirr walks up to the boy and says “Run boy, next time try to keep out of trouble.” So the boy ran away not saying a word, and Athrilirr kept on walking.
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:
Athrilirr sees a pile of coins one the ground and a man, an old man to be exact. He thinks quickly what to do, he is not so wealthy and really need some money to buy his food and all he needs. He decides to pick the man up and put him on a bench, right after that he runs for the coins and picks it all up. He runs as quickly as he can and suddenly stops, turns around and throws some money on the ground. He felt a little bad for the man, but had to do it to survive. So he keeps on walking thinking of what he did.
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:
Athrilirr continues walking and a man calls him over. Athrilirr walks over and says “Whatdo you want.”
“Look at all my wares is there anything you might like, food, weapons or perhaps clothing I am willing to haggle for the price.” He says with a wink in his eye.
“Well I may need some food and a pair of new shows and I’ll give 50 Minas for it.” Athrilirr replies
“I’ll let you have it for 100 Minas” The man says
“No way I’ll give you 75 Minas for it.” Athrilirr replies lowdly
“Deal, now here are your goods.” The man says while handing over the goods
“Thank you.” Athrilirr

Current Age: 24 Dwarven Years

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):[/b]Gnarlan grew up in Kal'Urguan. His parents abandoned him at the age of 10 because they could not afford to pay for his food and school. A mid-aged stone miner named Rogdast found him in an alley and took him in and raised him to be a strong and sturdy Dwarf. By the time he was fifteen he was already in the mines slamming his pick into the stone everyday. But then a couple of years later the mines collapsed and he lost Rogdast to the rubble of the mine.

When he was 20 he had become the leader of a platoon of Dwarves and went to fierce skirmishes with the Orcs but he had survived three battles. So he now works there to this day.

Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Role playing is exactly as its name suggests. Playing a role. One assumes the role of a character be it fictional or otherwise. A person while role playing has their character act according to a personality that they gave it that could be, but doesnt have to be completely different than their own. This gives a person the chance to almost live another life. Meta-gaming: Meta gaming is the use of out of character information in character usually for an unfair advantage. This just means that any information that you know that your character would not know. This could be as simple as following an OOC map when your character is in unfamiliar territory or could be that you know from an outside source such as the forum that someone will attack your territory in a surprise attack and you prepare for it. Power-emoting: Power emoting is using an emote to put a player in a situation where they cannot react. Such as saying *i rob you* or *i chopped off your head* . you cannot use emoting to force yourself into another players storyline or to avoid role playing to get a desired outcome.

Full Name: Irghils Avarson Current Age: 26 Sub-race (if any): Northerner Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
To fully understand Irghils son of Avar you must not only know of his past but the events that came before him. In fact we will need to go back several generations to when his ancestors still lived in the realm known as Aegis. Irghils’ ancestors were members of a small noble house in the north of Aegis whose family name was but one of the many casualties of sundering of Aegis. Because of the harshness of the weather and the constant threat from the undead the family and the peasants living in their small settlement lived a good, but harsh life. This all changed when the undead started sweeping across Aegis, seeming to destroy all in their path. When the undead came upon Irghils’ family’s settlement they tried to hold back the undead in vain. All but a small group that escaped in the chaos of the battle were killed. In that small group was a small boy who would one day become Irghils’ grandfather. The group was lucky. They made it to the Verge and were on the boats that set sail for a new land eventually arriving at Asulon. As settlements in this new land started to be constructed Irghils’ grandfather was taken in by who was formerly a servant in his fathers house. This is important because although much did not remain from his former life some did survive, mostly stories and a code that the family had lived by, something not too dissimilar from what was known as chivalry in another place and time. This code would be passed down from the boy to his son and eventually on to Irghils. This code would become an important factor for how Irghils lived most of his life. Irghils was born in the settlement of Ager, both of his parents the decedents of the group that escaped the undead attack. He was not the first child in his family. His parents first child had died in his first year of life due to disease. His family were farmers, something that he was not very good at. In his childhood he would often run into neighboring wheat fields to escape his daily chores. There were always repercussions for his actions and many times he would go without dinner, or have extra chores done under the watchful eye of either his mother or father. His childhood was mostly uneventful, it was what was expected for a boy growing up in a farming community. There was one event that did leave its mark on his childhood that should have been a happy occasion. When he was 10 his mother died in childbirth and the child his sister did not last the night. Although it did have a lasting impact on Irghils it had a worse impact on his father. His father was a proud man and although he didn’t show it in public but at home he was a wreck for several years. During this time Irghils had to take more and more responsibility in the farming. He did his best but the harvests became scarcer and scarcer over the next few years, he never did seem to have the knack for farming. It took a long time but eventually his father returned to his normal self and life for the two of them returned to some semblance of normalcy. This normalcy ended due to what seemed like mere chance. He met a member of the Order of the White Rose. The man was a knight of the order sent to take care of a few bandits that had made their base near the town. Irghils met the man in the local tavern and continued to talk to him over the next few days whenever he had the time. The night before the knight was to leave he asked Irghils to go with him and join the order. Irghils thought about the knights offer for a good while before talking to his father. While his father did not agree with his choice he understood it and was both sad and happy to see his son leave the town. In the morning Irghils gathered what few possessions he had and left with the knight for Rivia. There he was trained first as a Footman. He found that due to his size and build he was quite good at fighting and quite quickly gained an apprenticeship with one of the more senior Men-at-arms. Eventually he was able to prove his worth and was elevated to the rank of Man-at-arms and even saw some actual combat during a few skirmishes. Life was looking good for Irghils, he was helping to defend the Holy Oren Empire, the Order of the White Rose and the church and was seeming to do quite well at it. Then Irghils made a mistake. He got into a verbal fight with a superior officer, who happened to be the very same knight that had recruited him over some trivial subject. Irghils wouldn’t back down even after he had been proven wrong in the argument and the verbal battle quickly turned physical. The fight was quickly broken up but the damage was already done. He was lucky, he was only exiled from the order with most of his possessions striped from him. The first couple months after his exile were tough for him. He didn't know what to do, he wandered around the Capital Arethor for several months. Even though he was so close to his former home Ager he never returned. He eventually found out quite by accident that he could use some of the combat skills he had learned with the order to earn a living. He had stopped what appeared to a robbery on one of the roads leading out of the capital and it turned out there was a bounty on one of the robbers. Since then he has traveled around the Holy Oren Empire and even beyond it working as a mercenary. He has tried his best to adhere to the code of his forefathers and not sink to the depths that it seems that others in his line of work tend to fall to.
Ambitions for the Future: Making money and growing stronger in combat while trying to help some people along the way. Personality: Irghils has been hardened by some of the events in his life and as such he is not a trusting person even of his friends. He is clever, maybe even considered intelligent although he is completely illiterate. He is not fast to anger although when he does become angry it is not pleasant to be in the same room as him. He generally is a good person willing to help anyone in need no matter who or what race they are. He does not have a way with words and prefers for his actions to speak for him. One of his shortcomings is that like his father he is a proud man, too proud and sometimes this can get him into trouble. Skills: Farming, trained warrior.

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: Seeing the shady looking figure at first I don't pay him any mind. But he peaked my curiosity. After watching him for a moment it looked like he was heading for the Emperor’s palace. Looking to my left the guards that I had saw earlier are in the same spot and also seem to be oblivious to the shady individual. Standing up from the bench that I had been resting on I decide to take matters into my own hands. I try to follow him into the ally that he had just walked into without being noticed. I accidentally made one too many heavy footfalls because as soon as I turned the corner the man was rushing at me with a dagger in his hand. My instincts kick in at this point barely dodging the man’s thrust with the weapon. I think that there is no question that I would be able to take this man down but that would be too much trouble. After barely dodging another of the man’s attacks, this time cutting my shirt and scratching my skin I yell as loud as I can “Guards!”. At this point I could see the mans eyes under his cloak and I could see fear in his eyes. The man runs back the way he came and as I emerge from the ally I see the guards chasing after him. Its now that I notice the small sting on my chest and look down annoyed that the the small amount of blood from the wound had ruined my shirt. I have half a mind to go find that man, he owed me a new .
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?
Answer: After hiding behind some vegetation at the edge of the clearing I realise that i'm just too far away to be able to make out what they are saying. I look around but it doesn't look like i would be able to get any closer without being seen. I decide that the best course of action would just be to wait to see what is actually going on. He didn't want to just rush in there to have it be some sort of misunderstanding. After the two men start to push the old man around I don't see any other choice and get up from my hiding place and start moving towards the men. Luckily I was approaching from the rear of the two men who were antagonising the old man and it was only when I was about ten feet away from them that they heard me and turned around. “Can I help you two?” I asked. Both of the men now drew their swords. “If you know what is good for you you will leave the way you came real quick like.” The first said while the second pointed his sword at me. [/b] “Im sorry but im going to have to ask you to stop bothering this old man” I say my hand moving to rest on the pommel of my sword. The two bandits looked at eachother and then back at me. “Well we warned you.” The second one said before slashing at me with his sword. I was able to duck and role under the strike drawing my sword as I got back to my feet. The first of the two bandits had drawn his sword by now and I rushed at him making a few attacks that were all blocked and then barely blocking a strike from the second bandit. The first then made a mistake making a double handed overhead strike hoping to break my block but instead I was able to make a quick stab to the man's gut. He tried to get out of the way but it was in vain as my sword went right through him. I had to dive to the right in order to not get hit by a quick attack from the now enraged remaining bandit. My hands could not keep the grip on my sword and I now found myself without a weapon. The bandit had an evil smile on his face as he walked toward me that quickly turned to shock and pain as he quickly exhaled and fell forward, the old mans blade in the mans back. I looked around confused. I was happy that this was over but the old man was nowhere in sight. I assumed that he had threw the blade and made a run for it but I shuddered to think that it was some sort of magic. I looked over the bodies for any valuables, finding little and then covered the bodies the best I could.
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).
Answer: Walking up to the stall i'm not looking forward to this. Merchants are always annoying to deal with. It takes too long to get even a fair price for anything. “What a nice day this is isn't it sir? So what can I do for you on this fine day?” The halfling spoke cheerily to him. “I need enough dried food to last for a 10 day journey. “Is that all? I just happen to have a fresh supply of jerky. A 10 day supply, that would be 35 minas” the halfling replied. I sigh pulling out my gold pouch. “Look I know that that much would not be worth more then 20 minas, but i'll just pay 25 it that will avoid unnecessary haggling.” The halfling looked at him strangely before laughing and started to pack up the meat in a cloth. “You know what, I like you lets call it 22 minas and i'll wish you a good trip.” I smile and pull the money out of my pouch and hand it to the halfling. Taking the jerky I wish him a good day and move on to gather the rest of the supplies I would need.

Full Name: Korthos Iretheus Ironcrow Current Age: 37 Sub-race (if any): Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Korthos is the ******* son of a prostitute and some unknown peasant. The madame raised him as her son, but left him on the streets of Alras at the age of seven, for economical reasons. Korthos had to live off whatever he was able to steal from local merchants, and went by the name Ironcrow, his ******* name. At age 16, he fell in love with the beautiful noble girl, Agnethe Dandellion. She named him Korthos after her great-great grandfather. Their relationship had to stay secret however, because her father, lord Morthyn Dandellion, wanted her to marry a nobleman. A man saw them in the woods, and told her father. When he heard about it, he beat her, and days after, she committed suicide.
Infuriated beyond belief, Korthos killed Morthyn with a stab through the heart with a stolen shortsword, but he didn't run away. No. He was going to pay for his actions. When the guards appeared, he let them capture him. At his execution, a lord of House Carrion saw his passion and potential and bribed the guard to let him go. In return, Korthos had to become an eunuch and serve as a bodyguard. He was then named Korthos Iretheus, though he still uses his ******* name at times.
Ambitions for the Future: Serve House Carrion until death, find inner peace. He has gone through a lot, so he doesn't need any adventures. Doesn't mean he won't get any though. Personality:

-He is emotionally unstable. He goes from cold and stoic, to very emotional, and he has problems expressing his emotions.
-He is stubborn. Changing his ways is close to impossible.
-He is loyal beyond belief, and will follow orders to the word.
-He is creative and artistics, and try to express his emotions through the arts.
Skills: Swordfighting, archery, parkour, painting, poetry. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Korthos is a tall, pale, muscular built Northerner with a young looking face. He has messy half-long brown hair and his body is covered in scars. His right eye is made of glass, the other one is blue-grey. The left middle finger is missing. He is an eunuch.
He wears a blue-grey brigandine, a steel gorget and a plate covering the upper chest. On his back is a brown hide cloak, and on his shoulders, steel spaulders. On his feet and hands he has brown leather boots and gloves. On his legs he wears red and white vertically striped trousers. Covering his arms is a dark grey cardigan, which he wears beneath the brigandine. He wields a longsword.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: He is normally a tough guy, but at times, he gets emotional and sensitive, thinking about his youth, and sitting on the rooftops in solitude, writing poems and painting the landscape.

____
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: "Oi! Wha's yer bisness in the palace?" I say. He doesn't reply, and walks past me. "Strolling our way to the palace, are we? Clad in coal black rags? Ye kno' they'll stop ya, so 'less ye want to ge' yerself a ba'le, ye be'er turn 'round now." " off" he says, pushes me away, and runs. "Wha' ye fink yer doin'?" I say, then I pursue him, push him down on the ground, hold him there, and shout "Guards! Guards!" The black-clothed man pulls a dagger on me, trying to stab me. The guards appear, take him, and I get away with a few cuts on my chest and arms.
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?
Answer: I try to sneak up behind them, throw a big rock at one of the goons, leaving him unconcious. Then me and the old man are outnumbering the remaining bandit. "Wha' are ye doin' here?" I shout. "Mind yer own damn business" he says. He focuses on me, knowing that if he attacked the old man, I could kill him. Still he tries to keep an eye on the both of us. "Muggin' an ol' man eh? Yer be'er than that! Leggit now, or we will kill ya." "I will." The bandit pretends to be turning away, then leaps at the old man, stabbing him through the stomach, quickly turning around and facing me. "Ain't this a thrill." I swing my blade at him, but I miss. He stabs me in the thigh, leaving me bleeding on the ground, before looting the old man and his friend, then runs off.
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).
Answer: "Oi! Do ya have sum brandy? I don' hav much coin," I say.
"Well... I hav this an' this an' this li'l flask here. This one's thinned out, so it's cheaper." he replies.
"How much for the darker one?"

"'bout 12 minas probbly."
"Only 12 minas? This be quality stuff." he says.
"Well... I dun hav the cash. How 'bout that one?
"Tha' one I'll give ya for 12."
"Can I go lower than that?"
"Not much. Why?"
"I'm not sure if I'm willin' to lay down 12 for that."
"11?" "I'd say 10."
"Too low."
"Come on, it's thinned out."
"Still good stuff."

[b]1.Whilstin the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards theEmperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good.There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: He is clearly going to assassinate the emperor or other important people. What I would do is get a guard nearby me to assassinate the assassin with a dagger. If he is good with weapons and blocks it I would attack him. I would also notify a guard to give the emperor more safety. So the assassin would fail his job.

Answer: I would first break up the fight. I would see what is happening. Whoever did the bad thing would be threatened with my longsword. If it was the bandits I would kill them. If it was the man I would tell him to go in his cottage and leave them alone.

Answer:I would want ghast tears, nether wart, and redstone. He would give a big price and I would deny. I would give him a price that is agreeable and he would agree. So I would get what I want and he would to. We would go on with our day in the peaceful human city.

Full Name:Rick Felder
Current Age: 28
Sub-race (if any):
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
My name is Rick Felder. When I was born in Arethor my father named me Rick because that was my great grandfather's name. Why did he name me that because my great gandfather was a very nice man and he was a very brave man to. He knew alot about the wilderness and loved to adventure forests like all my family does. My father always wanted me and my brothers to be great explorers when we grew up because that's what he did most of his life. My brother's names were Marcus and Jonathan Felder. Marcus was about 4 and Jonathan was about 2 when I was born. I was the youngest kid in the whole entire family.
When I turned about 5 when my Mom told us stories and ways to be good people like say no thanks when you want some and say please when you do want something. My father started teaching us stories how everyone used to live in a place called Aegis. Even though my brothers didn't believe I did because he said that the story was passed down by my great great gandfather Erohern Felder. When I turned 7 mom got sick and died. My dad thought it was a plague like sickness so he wanted me and my brothers to stay away from people. 5 days later we got news that my mother ate something poisonous and got sick and died. It felt terrible having my mom die. The funeral was vey sad and depressing. The night after the funeral we sung mom's favorite song. We sang it every night before bed. When I turned 10 it was the best birthday I ever had. Even though my mom wasn't there I had fun playing some of the games and just ran around and had fun. That night I had a dream that my mother was standing in my room with some tea and breakfeast. My mother made the always made the best kind of tea. She gave me it I siped it I could taste it in my mouth. My father woke me up and it made me sad because it was my last dream about my mom.
When I turned 13 my dad and I went fishing. We shared great memories but then my dad said," Son we need to stop thinking about mom and start learning about the wilderness,". We learned alot about the wilderness till I was 16. In my 16's we fished and farmed alot and went to markets got seedlings and that was a vey fun year for me. By the time I was 17 my brothers adventured mountains, and cities like Solace. I was still at home helping my father with fishing,hunting,farming,and cooking even though hunting was my favorite he took me hunting 2 times a week. When I turned 23 my father died by drowning in a river. He fell into it I tried to reach him but it was to late and he couldn't breathe and died. My house was demolished because I couldn't pay for it. I was broke I only had like 5 minas.I started adventuring and hunting, I climbed trees and thats where I lived everyday I'd run through towns to keep me fit. The thing I wanted to do is become a soilder for the Holy Oren Empire.

Full Name:Alakar Forkbeard
Current Age:He is slightly into 9 seasons (64)
Sub-race (if any):Mountain
Clan (if any):Forkbeard
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Alakar spent his childhood riding on an orc's shoulders. Alakar was abandoned at birth, deemed a weakling.
True, he wasn't born with bulk, but his life has bestowed it on him. He was abondoned in a hole in the ground, left to die as wolf bait. A strange occurance happened. An orc was
approaching the hole to see if he could get whatever bait the dwarves had left. You see, this orc was shunned and hated for his soft nature. He was a strange one growing up, no
name, no will to hunt or fight. He grew up as a special case. The leader of his small tribe took a rare pity on the boy, and allowed him to grow, so they could see what man he
would become. Needless to say, he grew up caring, the example of pity as a role to play. This orc found Alakar abandoned and rescued him. Alakar was nurtured, and protected. He did grow
to be strong, as his host refused to hunt, and Alakar hates the taste of apple.(Just a quirk)
He was brought up in the ruined hold of Kal'Dwain. The ruin was always empty. No wandering bandit entered, nor any hunter stopped for respite. The place seemed cursed, but it was the
only home Alakar ever knew. Life was self-sustained. Once Alakar could hunt, the orc left him to provide for the two. Alakar hunted with a wooden axe he fashioned with a small knife he
found. He prefers the axe because he prefers his weapon to hae multiple uses, and since the axe is also used to cut down trees, he sees a large advantage in using it. For a mountain dwarf,
he truly prefers the surface to the cavernous tunnels that most dwarfs find solace in. Alakar and the orc left Kal'Dwain when Alakar was well into his second season (17). They traveled along
a small worn out road.
They came across a burning campsite one day, near his third season (19). Upon inspection, they found it to be the orcs tribe. Dead, with him alive. He underwent a complete personality change.
The orc now was the only one to hunt, bringing back game that was battered and cut up. The meat was like strips for stew. The way Alakar knew the orc's story, he wondered why the orc was
taking the burining so hard. Alakar came to a sound conclusion at: The tribe may have treated the orc with hate, the orc still cared for those who took pity on him. Living with the orc was never
the same.
The orc is dead now. After the burning, he took total, almost maternal protection over Alakar. Alakar was the only person he had left. He died on the first day of Alakar's 7th season(49).
The two came upon an elven beggar on the road. It was odd, since all of the elves Alakar had met on the roads had been proud. Too proud to ask for money. At first shimmer of coin, the
beggar jumped up with a dagger, as did his fellow bandits. They were mugging us for all of our posessions. They were out to leave us naked on the road. The orc saw all the danger, and flew
into an extravagant rage(described as so, because it truly was a sight to see.) The orc killed them like he was chopping saplings. Alakar was stunned to see such fury from his caretaker.
THe person who had taught him to be gentle was now murdering the common bandit. One of them got a lucky shot, and put an arrow clean through him. The orc fought on, his rage dwindleing with
each kill. At long last the bandits were dead. The orc slid to the ground, dying along with the rest. As Alakar tried to save him, the orc whispered his last words: [/b]"Make no mistake, I wish
you to be the most fearsome one of all."[b]That day, Alakar took up a stone blade from the hands of one of the dying highwaymen. Alakar abandoned all hope of gentleness, or peace. He was out for
vengeance now, and he was going to receive it.
The bandits were part of a larger group. Alakar had tracked them to a longhouse, long abandoned in a lush jungle. As Alakar entered, he watched all 15 bloodthirsty eyes fall on him, and his
branded sword. One of the shouted "Eh? Watcha cravens waitin' for? Get Um!" All of them ran to arms, and returned ready for a fight. Their leader walked down the stairs in the far right corner.
"Oy!" he said, "Don't burn thissun, aight?" The bandits nodded approval, and grabbed a considerably long rope. Alakar was fighting for vengeance, but his main focus at this point was PERSONAL CONCERN.
Alakar fought them off in waves of three or four. They were considerably slow, so fighting more than one was a task to be attempted by a child. They all fell to Alakar's sword, brought down by their
own blade. Their leader, a vicious warrior named "Owlbear" came to arms with a diamond axe. "Found thissun in the 'ands of a dead captain. Zombie, o'course, but it gets the job done.
Alakar had no qualms about killing Owlbear. His sword clashed with the axe repeatedly. Finally, Alakar's sword broke. Alakar awaited the final blow, but it never came. He was tied up and tortured.
Owlbear put small quantities of poison in Alakar's water, not enough to kill him, but enough to cause agony. Next to that, Owlbear cut him, then quickly stopped the bleeding. All of Alakar's food was
rotten flesh. Everything happened so fast, when Alakar woke up the next day, he had no memory of the torture, yet he could no longer feel anything. Owlbear knew this, and decided to finally kill Alakar.
Right before the final strike, Owlbear's mouth began flowing red. He fell to the floor, a sword in his back. Behind him knelt the orc, alive. It was a beautiful reunion, yet it was not long. For when
I said the orc's last words, those wre his last words. The orc had crawled here, tracking Alakar's sloppy trail. The orc had stopped the bleeding through him, and removed the arrow, yet it hade fell
to infection first. The orc died, smiling.
Alakar left the jungle, and started searching for his true clan. He went to the Ironguts, and the Doomforged. Neither knew him. When Alakar went to the Forkbeards, they remembered the record of the
wolf bait child. That was the day Alakar knew his name. Alakar Forkbeard.[/b]
Ambitions for the Future: Alakar hopes to rekindle respect within his clan. He also hopes to someday learn the name of the orc that protected him through eight seasons.
Personality:Alakar was raised to be gentle, yet with the orc's personality change, and final wish, he is questioning how he should live.
Skills:Swordsmanship, Treechopping, Axefighting, Woodwork, Kindling, Hunting.

[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:The sight of the bridge caused a shiver to crawl up my spine. I've never liked heights. The diamonds would make me a rich dwarf. In that moment, a shine of true dwarven greed shone in my eyes.
I made a rash decision and regretted it. I walked over to the bridge. Deep caverns were below. I took a step out. One foot after another. One foot after another. I looked to see how far I was. Smack-dab
in the middle of the bridge. I froze, nable to continue. "One foot after anothe-" and the rocks came down. I sprinted as fast as my stubby legs could go. I dove for the other side. I landed well over,
but noticed my pick was gone. I glanced to the edge and found it balancing on the edge. I crept over, making as little vibrations as possible. I grabbed the pick and breathed a sigh of releif. As I walked,
I tripped. Out of my hand flys the pick, stright into the ceiling over the chasm. Rocks fell like there was no tomorrow. The casm filled up, my only pick at the bottom. I had a clear path back across, and,
in defeat, I left the diamonds to someone less clumsy.
[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:"Aye! Leave the lad 'lone," I yell. The two dwarves look over, surprised. They retort "Mind yer own buisness, ya craven!" I realize they're not going to stop approaching the young dwarf, and kick
my chair back to show I was going to stop them. The unarmed one pulls a sword from behind his chair. After clashing with the one with the sword, I backhand that gor-bellied half-troll, and kick him in the
spine. I notice that the other's knife was planted in my leg. I call out in pain. I pull out the knife, and get into a struggle. After wrestling the dwarf for a short time, I wrentch the dwarf's hand off my
neck. He spins off into a wall. I grab him and slam him into the wall. He grabs a chair and hits my head. I fall to the ground and am pumeled with kicks from the man's boot. Honestly, too much heel for a guy.
I grab his foot, and trip him. He falls, and I stand. I kick his head, and he passes out. I go to comfort the young dwarf, but he's gone.
[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]
Answer: "Thats was an interestin' tale. This dwarf handed me a mug o' warm ale, and I gladly accepted. Ya know no self-respectin' dwarf would turn it down. I took a sip, and found it to be surprisin'ly good.
The dwarfs grin grew the more I drank. I had gone from small sips ta the big ole gulps. I felt woozy tha more I drank. I had guesses it was tha ale, but then me belly turned ta a bloody pain. This dwarf laughed as
I cringed in pain. He chuckled out a sentence 'Eh, maybe ya shouldn't be so quick ta trust, eh?' I, o'course, was doubled over in pain, so I had no response for tha *******'s treachery. I woke up upsidown, danglin'
from a tall rock. The dwarf appeared and said 'Don't bother, already robbed ya blind.' I struggled anyway. This jackhole felt that robbin' me weren't enough. He robbed me down to the last scrap of cloth.
I fell from tha rock, and the theif was gone. I never saw 'im again."

Out-Of-Character Information Please fill out the following questions as accurately as possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate.
Minecraft Account Name: pman17
How old are you?: 15
Time-Zone: MST
Have you read, understood and agreed to the rules?: Yes
What previous experience have you had in role-playing?: Little to none. I have played on servers that claim they offer roleplay but do not follow suit when I actually play on the server. The servers I mention are called Realm of Blothera, and Eternal Imperium.
How did you hear about the the Lord of the Craft?: I heard through the Minecraft Forums
Link any applications that you have previously made for the server: First application.
Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If not, then please do so (link above):
Have you read the Elven lore, and shall you ensure you make use of it and follow it in your biography?: Yes
Definitions In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: This is where you act out as a character in a specific environment. WoW servers that are roleplay act out as if they were the character they portray. An orc would act like an orc should act, not the way any person playing an orc would act.
Meta-gaming: This is similar to dramatic irony in literature, where the audience knows information the characters don't. Similarly, meta-gaming is using outside information to keep your character at advantage.
Power-emoting: This is when you force an action on another player, like if someone says
Jon killed Arwin in one shot
You would say
Jon attempted to shoot an arrow at Arwin
In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character:
Full Name: Elensar Periculus
Current Age: 68
Sub-race (if any): High Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Elensar was born among the Mali'Aheral, in ArmaLuna. His parents were scientists coming up in the world. They both were a bit xenophobic among their subrace, and as a result Elensar got little contact with Dark Elves and Wood Elves in his life. Instead, much of his childhood he remembered learning the clerical arts from his parents, and helped many fellow high elves. Of course, being born in ArmaLuna, he could not help but learn the ways of the strings too. Eventually, he grew up to be well versed on his lute.
About another 30 years and still living among his parents, the Periculus family moved to the capital, Normandor. They were embraced with many fortunes. Elensar began his life as a cleric in training. The family soon became the average family in Normador, until Elensar's 50th birthday, when his belongings and possessions were entirely robbed. Up until that point, Elensar had a pretty positive outlook on life, and was very optimistic. However, for the first time in his life, he felt rage. Immediately, he set his eyes on the Dark Elves, for no other reason than the fact that he sees many of them dressed in dark colors, which signifies thief attire. He followed a couple dark elves, noticing the jewelry they wore and thinking it to be stolen, not knowing it was truly theirs as family heirlooms. He carried a sword and a few offensive spells and demanded that they show themselves when they were cornered at a lake and a tree root. A mistake was at his part; Elensar was beaten greatly by the elves' knack at hand combat. The greates of the wounds is an ugly purple scar that is permenantly etched alongside his left cheek.
Elensar changed that day on his 50th birthday. For the first time, his family knew poverty. His prejudice towards other elves only increased more. As time progressed, however, the wounds of his family were healed, as a sympathetic high elf who had connections to the Heial'Thilln (Silver Council) had heard their story and helped their fellow kin back on their feet. As a payment of their debt to the stranger (who chose to remain anonymous, going by 'Mali'Hiylun- The Elf that follows health') and as a result of his severe beating, Elensar decided to become a master in combat, to become a 'batlle-cleric'. The High Elves greatly appreciate what they call a 'civilized warrior, and Elensar would certainly deliver. He continues to train his magics and swordsmanship to match and sooner than later conquer over the elves beneath him. He will soon become 'Master Peliculus'.
Personality: Determined. He won't let any tragedy get in his way, not after he had been through the worst of it. He is xenophobic, meaning he is hesitant in contacting other elves, but otherwise he is quiet and calculating. However, a few drinks may make him soon singing songs he learned from the Bard's School.
Skills: Medicinal skills, farming, swordsmanship. Also quite well at performing for entertainment as well as performing magic.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
Any other details you wish to share about your character: Although his name is fully 'Elensar Peliculus', he prefers going by 'Master Peliculus'. However, he needs to realize that he needs to live up to that name.
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 High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer:
Master Peliculus, approaching elven group: Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya, kin. What have you occupied yourself in doing now?
Elf 1: Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya. See that poor boy over there?
MP: Yea?
(pauses)
Elf 2: No, do you see him? His clothes would make a dark elf shiver pale!
(laughter ensues)
Elf 1: No, but honestly, I can't bear the thought of living among the frail ones as him. Their skills consist of their height near matching humans and dropping swords on their feet!
MP: (chuckles) I often though the same things before, but heed my words, kin. You shall not underestimate them.
Elf 2: What makes you say that?
(nudge from the first elf)
Elf 2: Oh, right. I forgot...
MP: (Smiling) Kin, you have a mission to attend here. Don't make the same mistake I made (brushes scar in memory). To subdue them is to allow us to prosper.
Elf 1: If I let you preach any longer, I would think you as a follower of 'religion' (laugh weakly)
(Master Peliculus pats both elves on the back, and walks away, glaring at the wood elf child with a cold face)
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:
MP: Hail traveler! Allow me to help you up.
Old Man: (being pulled up by Master Peliculus) Oy, a High Elf! Believe me when I say I never thought I'd see you in these woods.
MP: (laughs) Then you must have never come to these lands before, stranger. You hail from the human lands?
OM: Aye (bends over to pick up coins). Though we 'humans' tend to call it the Empire. I hail from Arethor, surely you've heard of it?
MP: Aye I have-- say, you won't find it odd if I assist you in picking up the coins, do you?
OM: Whuzzat? Oh, no, I know an honest fellow when I see one.
MP: (smiles) What makes you think I am honest? Just hypothetical.
OM: Hypo- what?
MP: Hypothetical. It means the question is used in a 'what if' scenario.
OM: Well, uh, you see, many of the bandits I have come across have been humans
MP: (looks at coins) You've been robbed?
OM: I hide it well, but that's besides the point. Every elf I've met-- and that's not a lot mind you-- seem to be honest fellows.
MP: (picks up last coin, handing it to old man) You've met other elves?
OM: Oh no lad, that is way before this incident. I've come here because I've missed a carriage ride to Arethor. I believed the carriage must have gone this way, but my sense of direction may be off...
MP: (thinks for a while) Tell you what human. If you tell me your story, I will assist you to a nearby inn and hire a carriage for you.
OM: (smiles and agrees. Both walk towards elven inn)
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:
MP: Ok trader, I've finally decided what I want to buy.
Trader: Finally! I swear it took you a good three hours to decide!
MP: I want a sheath.
TR: Okay
MP: and an amulet
TR: Sure,
MP: And I finally want a stick
TR:... Just a stick? What do you want to do with a stick?
MP: I am willing to buy all three for 50 coins.
TR: Whoa, whoa, whoa. I may have been a haggler, but 50 seems too low.
MP: Take it or leave it
TR: Are you deaf boy? No deal!
MP:... Alright, how about same price, but without the sheath?
TR: Hmm... The price of an amulet alone is at least 120 coins. and a stick... probably not even worth a set price.
MP: Okay, I will pay 100 coins, both stick and amulet.
TR: Ok, that I can do!
MP: But the stick you choose must be of the Elder Tree
TR:... Hold on, you aren't going to be making a wand, are you?
MP: Take the price trader, or leave it.
TR:...(thinks long) Okay, I guess I will take the deal. BUT I've got a better one for you. Twice the price, and I'll add in the sheath.
MP: (wonders) I don't care for the sheath anymore
TR: But how else will you carry your sword?
MP: Holding is fine by me. Works most of the time.
TR: Okay then, (sigh), let me see if I have a 'stick' (rummages through carriage) Here you go, I can't believ I actually found one!
MP: (hands over coins) Okay trader, i bid you good day (walks away muttering arcanic speech)

[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: Gnarlan_Understone takes note of the diamond vane and where it is. he then goes back to a nearby village/city he finds a few miners at an tavern. "Any of ye want to share a vain of diamond with meh'" Gnarlan says to the half drunken miners. "Ye' why not!" one of the miners yelled. "Yeah! lets get some diamond eh'" said the others. So we all get our supplies and a few pieces of stone to help support the bridge when we get there. When we arrive at the diamond ore Gnarlan_Understone says "Eh' here it is, the diamond ore!". "Oh my goodness! Mate were all gonna' be rich!" one of the now sober dwarves says. "But how do we get over dat bridge ladsh... *hiccup!*" says one of the dwarves. " We run over it maybe." said the sober dwarf. " I guess... one at a time though.... here goes!" Gnarlan_Understone yells as he runs down the bridge *crack!* the bridge starts to fall and Gnarlan leaps for his life to the other side. *poomph!* Gnarlan fell onto the other side of the ravine but may of broken a finger. "Ouch!" Gnarlan yells. "Here we'll make a cobblestone bridge!" yells one of the Dwarves. here it comes, the Dwarf tosses it over to Gnarlan and Gnarlan nearly falls of the ledge he is standing on while trying to catch it. He then fixes the cobblestone to the open space. "You place down the rest!" Gnarlan_Understone tells the other Dwarves. "Ok" says the sober Dwarf. He fixes about 5 pieces of cobble in just a few minutes, it is now time to test the handmade bridge. "I'll go first!" says one of the drunken Dwarves. He tip toes steadily and makes it to the other side if the ravine. "I guess its safe." Gnarlan says to the Dwarves as they go one by one to the other side of the ravine by the handmade bridge. "Yes! It worked!" yelled one of the Dwarves. "Indeed... now for the diamond!" I say to the Dwarves. "But theres four of us and there is only three diamond eh! What do we do?" Says the sober Dwarf. "Someone could give up their piece." I tell the Dwarves. "Never it's all mine!!!" One of the Dwraves yells and pulls out his blade. *slash* The Dwarf swings his sword at one of the Dwarves that was not paying attention to the swing and ends up killing him. "Nooo!" Gnarlan yells. "Come ere' lil' Dwarf!" Gnarlan yells again *ching!* *ching!* I slash at the Dwarf but he blocks the attack then he slashes at my head but ends up cutting of some of my hair. The other two Dwarves drwa their axes and swing at the drunken Dwarf, *crack!* one of the Dwarves splits the bandits skull. "*sighs* That was close... now we get a diamond each.". All three of the Dwarves mined their diamonds and walked over the bridge one by one and made it back to the tavern to get drunk all over again.
[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: I keep sat and I watch the two Dwarves walk up to the sad Dwarf, "Why ye' cryin' to your self mate?" The Dwarf with the dagger asks him. "*sobs* I just lost me baby to an Elven thieve *sobs* all I have now is his toy that he loved!" says the Dwarf. "Come outside and lets make a deal" says one of the Dwarves. As they walk outside Gnarlan stands up with his mug of ale and walks outside casually. "We can get your baby back all we need is information on what youre baby looks like and what the Elven thieve looked like." said the Dwarf as they started to bring the man down an alley-way. As Gnarlan walks back inside the tavern Gnarlan hears a yell, "AHHH!". Gnarlan sprints outside and spots the helpless DWarf being pulled away in a carrage. So Gnarlan runs to the guard wondering down the street and says "Oi', ye' there there are two thieves over there down that alley that just kidnapped someone!" then the guard ran that way but hour after hour Gnarlan waited and the guard neverand was never heard of again, so Gnarlan_Understone walked to his home and the next day he wandered off to Oren.
[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]
Answer: "Why are ye' grinning mate?" I ask the bar owner. "I just brewed up some of the best ale in Asulon!" says the bar owner. "And why do ye' have a bar all the way down ere' instead of up in Karik?" I question the man. "Erm... sometime Dwarven explorers wander down these caverns and come to get a good ol' pint of ale from me." Answers the bar owner. "I should be going." I say while I walk down the cavern. "Wait!" yells the bar owner. "When I tell you to have a pint of ale you have the pint of ale!" the bar owner threatens. "Are ye' challenging me?" I ask the bar owner. "Ye!" he replies. "Hahahaha... bring it on!" I tell the bar owner. Then the bar owner charges at me with a kitchen knife and just as I pull out my sword the bar owner
swings at my finger making it bleed rapidly. "Arrrgh!... Yah!" I yell as I fiercely swing my sword at the bar owners head "CHING!" the two swords meet. Then as the bar owner lifts up his knife I pull a hunting knife out of my leather pocket and throw it at the bar owners head. "POOMPH!" the body hits the ground in a rush and a heap of dust flies in the air. Gnarlan then hides the bar owner and carries on down the caverns.

He remembered how he evacuated with his mother and father from Aegis fleeing in terror, and how they soon found a whole new beautiful land. His father taught him how to fish and how to run a fishing business. He soon knew all he could about running a fisherman's business and how to be streetwise.
Later on in his life as a full grown man he made his keep selling fish in the streets of Malinor and bought a house of his own. Although he always yearned for adventure he kept it to himself in fear his mother and father would be angry. He read many books and was fascinated at all the tales of the beyond and adventurous souls. He soon opened a small business instead of selling on the streets and met many adventurers whilst selling. He talked to the adventurers and most conversations ended up like this. The adventurer would say "Hello. I would like to buy...." I would cut them off "You look like an adventurous fellow!" I would examine their clothes eagerly. Then the adventurer would normally say with an accomplished grin on his/her face. "I...Why yes...." "I have been on many adventures!" I'd say "Really? Could you tell me about one?" They would say "I have been through abandoned mines....." "Haunted castles..." "Many lethal situations..." I would say "Yes?" The adventurer would then normally tell me a story of one of their amazing adventures. Although I never got that much business because I was normally off daydreaming or cracking jokes to the customers. I still live in Malinor in my small store..... Dreaming..... Waiting for something exciting or more in life.

____ 1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer: I walk towards the perpetrators and say "Why are you mocking this child?" The High Elves stop and say "Well... We were just...." I say "I know what you were doing...." I say "Why where you mocking the child?!" One of the elves says "This child is inferior to us superior High Elves." The other elf says "We mock his inferiority" The elves kick the child and the child falls to the ground. I say "No!" I take the elf child by the hand and run back to safety. I say while we are running away from the high elves. "So.... Where is your mother?" The child says "Just over by the Malinor gate." "A couple streets down." I say "Sure.." I dash for the house. I say "Ok found it!" I then return the child to his mother. 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 say "Do you need any help old man?" The old man sputters and coughs and says "Yes..... I dropped my coins..." I say "I can see that." I say "I'll help you up." I attempt to help the man up by grabbing on the the walking stick that was in his and in lifting him by the stick. The old man attempts to get up but then falls down again. I say "Are you alright old fellow?" The man says "Fine fine...." "Just help me up will ya!" I say "Sure then...." I grab the old man's hand and I lift slowly and carefully. The man gets to his feet and I push him up slowly. The man finally get back to walking and gives me a little wink like he is saying "Thank-You." 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.

(Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer: The item is a beautiful new fishing rod. I am very tempted to buy it but reach into my pocket and discover I have little money. The man says "I see you don't have much...." I say "I'm afraid so.." The merchant says "I could haggle a fair price if you'd like...." I say "How about 50 mina." The Merchant says "I'm afraid not. 75 and we'll make it a deal!" I say "What about 60 mina?" The Merchant says "You'd have to throw something a little extra to get the price." I say "I'll throw in these fish hooks!" (I show him the fish hooks.) The Merchant says "Aye! My wife is a collector of various knick-knacks.... She'll love this!" (I hand him the fish hooks and the 60 mina and he hands me the fishing rod.)

Full Name: Legirion
Current Age: 300 Elven years (comparative to around 20 human years)
Sub-race (if any): High Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
The first thing he remembers was the rocking. Back, forth, back, forth..
"Haelun (mom), where are we going?" asked young Legirion.
"We are heading to a new world, I... I cannot talk right now child.." She says with a sniffle, wiping her eyes.
Legirion continues through the wooden enclosure, rocking back and forth.
"Father! Where are we?" he shouts to his father, confused now.
"Son, we are going to Elysium. Just stay in the cabin, we will be there soon."
Legirion was only 10 years old at the time, leaving behind is perfect life, and his loving large home, with a wood fire. Trading places with this boot-legged ship with nothing but a few port holes and one bathroom. Leaving behind Asulon, where his father was a wealthy blacksmith, who had a loving wife, and 6 young children. But as Asulon was approached with sorrow, and depression, Legirion's family fled to the new world of Elysium.
A few years later, his family was back on their feet, Passing here and there, and selling wood from the surrounding forest. Legirions father took up a job as a blacksmith assistant and was able to provide slightly for the family. Their mother continued her job as a political adviser and could bring a few extra Mina. But with 6 children to support, and Legirion now lonely 13 years old, the family was having extra trouble "surviving."
When Legirions father suddenly becomes the manager of his own Forge, he is given the title of Master BlackSmith, and the families life turns around. The Legirion family forms a guild of BlackSmiths, and becomes highly known throughout Elysium. They moved into a large manor, and had an extra house for the other children and their wife's, as most of Legirion's sibling were older than him.
Though his families life was great, It was shortlived. The Blacksmith guild was attacked by Rival guilds! Legirions father was beheaded on the roof of the Manor, and dropped onto the floor with a splat. His family was blackmailed, and betrayed, and hunted. Legirion fled for his life, living under bridges, and being anonymous.
But then he got his chance, flee to Kalos where he could start a forge of his own!
Legirion took the first ship he could to the new, New world of Kalos.. And that is were his story ends, and his new life Begins..
Ambitions for the Future: Legirion wishes to form a Guild or possibly a forge, just as his father, the blacksmith, had done.
Personality: Legirion is a calm, but unforgiving character. He does not often pick fights, but will not let others pick on him. He has a strong heart and a strong mind, although he is not the best with a sword.
Skills: As a High Elf, Legirion inherits a mediocre hand in archery. As his father often took him to his forest, he also developed a sense of surroundings and an ease at survival.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Legirion sports a forest green shirt, and has blond hair. He has green eyes and Has a pair of long Elfy looking ears. http://www.mcskinsea...kin/victorhulin
Any other details you wish to share about your character:
Legirion is quite slow in reaction time, but is a very fast sprinter.

____
1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer:
Legirion approach them discreetly and climbs a tree to observe what is going on; when suddenly one of the Hight Elves is about to hit the child!
I jump of the tree to land just between the child and the High Elven Attacker.
"Go back to were you come from! This child has done nothing to harm you!" shouts Legirion.
"Haha," laughs one High Elf. "And what are you going to do about it?!" he says as he pushes Legirion to the floor.
"You elves are nothing but a pack of stupid Orcs! Get out of here before I call the guards!" Shout Legirion with a cough.
The Leader of the High Elves walks towards Legirion, who is now getting up from the floor.
"Your going to do... What?" he whispers.
"I said Ill call the Guards! GUARDS!!" he yelps.
"YOUR CRAZY!" Shouts the Elf as he pushes Legirion back to the ground, and orders his group to leave before the guards come.
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:
Being of a good nature, Legirion does not try to take the money and run, but helps the Old man up and puts the coins back in the pouch.
"Are you alright sir? You seem to have fallen face first!" asks Legirion.
"O-oh.. Why yes. I-I am fine young lad." he says with a smile, patting Legirion on the head. "Do you think you could pass me my walkin' stick? I-I can't walk wit'out it."
"Of course," says Legirion as he picks up his walking stick. Just then, the Old man falls forwards.
"ooOOOHHHH" *THUD* The Old man falls to the ground once more, dropping the bag of coins, and the coins spill out, rolling around the floor.
As Legirion helps the old man up, a group of small children come and run off with a few coins.
"Hey Rascals!" cries out Legirion, "Those aren't Your-" his shouts cut off by the old mans words.
"Do not worry, young lad. They are ch-ildren.. I have no true use for them any h-how."
Legirion continues to help the old man to his walking stick and to sit down on a park bench. They begin to talk of the Old Mans life.
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 not very willing to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer:
"Hello, merchant, what are you selling?" asks Legirion peacefully.
"Oi, well I be sellin' Every'ting you need! Wha'dda Yah be lookin' fur?!" says the dwarfy Trader.
Legirion looks over his inventory and sees many things that can aid him in his Blacksmithy.
"Ill take your BlackSmith hammer, and an Iron mallet please!" explains Legirion.
"Ahah! Of'cuurse!" says the Dwarfy Trader. "That'll be Furty-Nein Minas Yeh scally!"
Legirion notices he is short around 20 mina, as he does not carry large sums of money with him.
"Well, I only have Thrity Mina with me.. Coul-" Legirion is cut off by the Trader.
"Oooh No. I do not want to be makin' any loans 'ere today. Just scoot away now!"
Legirion does not feel content in the Dwarfy Traders choice. "Ill take the Blacksmith Hammer, and Iron mallet for Thirty five mina, and ill-" cut off once again,
"I dont wunt'a make any trouble! But I need'da money too yah know?"
Legirion notices that the Traders cart is slightly broken at the base.
"I could help you fix your cart! And pay the thirty mina, that should pay off the cost!" explains Legirion.
The Dwarfy Trader thinks a bit, and Decides to let Legirion help with the cart.
"Alright, 'ere you go. Dont hurt yer'self OK?! Haha.. " he says as Legirion makes off with the blacksmith tools, after helping fix the cart. The thirty mina still gingling in his pocket.

Open-Response-Questions
Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short. Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?I wouldn't have to think.I would just try to give him some money depending on much I were to have.But, if he wasn't nice then I would only give him a little bit or none at all.I just don't want to be handing out money I have to make a living to.Also I wouldn't even buy anything I would just give him money.I just want people to be able to make a decent living and not be poor and starving to death. Because all i would have to do to get more money to open my shop since i want to be a shopkeeper is just save up and do things for people since i like to help people.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?I would walk up to them and see what the problem would be.If it looks like there will be violence then I would try to defend the dwarf if I had a weapon.If I didn't then I would try to find help right away if possible.If the Orc began to attack the dwarf then I would try to go in and break up the fight and risk injury to myself.If I were that dwarf then I would want someone to come help me.I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt.If i did die i would die a honorable man because i was trying to save someone.Also if the orc went and backed off i would guide the dwarf back to where he was going and make sure he got there safely.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:First I would make sure that he is ok. Second I would help him up and try to find something to help him walk.I would then pick up the money and put it back in the bag.Then I would give the man his money back.Even if he wants to give me money for my generosity I would not take the money.Then I would make sure that he gets to where he needs to go safely. I would have him hold on to my should while he tells me where he has to go to make sure he doesn't fall again.

____
[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 would pull out my bow and follow the figure, and if the figure does anything bad, like trying to kill someone, I would shoot him. If the figure just made his way toward an important place, I would follow him then call the guards, and if he ran then, I would shoot him, and if he stood still, the guards would capture him.
[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 always help others, so I would drive them away from the old man, even if it means risking my life. I would yell at them to get their attention, and shoot at them as they ran towards me, and if they got too close, I would run and take them as far away as I could from the old man, and try to lose them in the jungle.
[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: I help others, so I wouldn't rip the guy off, I'd pay him fairly. I'd also buy some stuff to help others with, like food, armor, potions, and weapons. I would tell him what I'd want to buy, then I'd pay him with a fair price and thank him for the items.

Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.
Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? I push through the crowd of people. "I see ye have a very nice looking diamond on that piece of cloth over there." I tell the Dwarf. "Ye! she's a gorgeous one eh!" the Dwarf says. "How much would she cost?" I say to him. "A-thousand Minas" The Dwarf says in a quiet voice. I look at him in shock, considering he is the same race as me and he is 'poor' I will buy it. *pulls out a few bags of Minas out of his rugsack*. "Here ye go a thousand Minas!" I yell out to him while tossing it into his hand. *the Dwarf gives me the diamond*. I walk away and just as I turn around the corner to go to Arethor he yells out "Thankyou kind sir!" while waving to me.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? I walk up to the fight and I pull out my trusty blade and start slashing at the Orc but then the Orc takes out his spikey club and smashes it into the ground 2 feet away from me. I then slash is arm whilst he is pulling his club out of the ground. Then he yells "AHHHHHHHHH!" then he raises up his fist and I dive to the left and in the the way of the fist is the Dwarf that was fighting with the Orc. "CRUNCH!" the Orc smashed the Dwarf I got up and yelled "AHHHHHH!" and I stab my trusty sword into the Orc's belly, "POOMPH!" the Orc fell to the ground. Then I start to say my prayers for the Dwarf and bury him. After tyhe prayers I continue my adventure onwards.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: "Are ye ok?" I say to the old man. "Help!" He says. I pick up his Minas and I help the man up. I then help walk the man to Malinor. Once we get there I give him his Minas back but then the old man replies saying "No you can keep 'em" then Gnarlan replies saying "Ok thankyou very much... goodbye!" "Goodbye!" The old man yells to me as I walk away.

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Pretending to be a character that isn't yourself with their own moral values and/or believe systems living in their own universe apart from this one. The release from this world and being able to be something totally new in a virtual one is something I've always found extremely enjoyable.
Meta-gaming: This is really a brief summarization of what I've read on Wikipedia to be honest. I've never heard of these terms before I submitted my first application to this server and it's been a while so I had to refresh my memory. So basically my understanding of it is, is that you can't use real world knowledge to take advantage of something in an RP world. An example of this would be if there was a holy and powerful sword in one of the Lord of the Rings books and the book gave the location, meta-gaming would be if you used the location in the book to find said sword on the server.
Power-emoting: I got my understanding of this term off of a wow wikia. This seems to be doing an action that can't be stopped via an emote. An example of this would be "KSUspartan drank all of Tom's beer than burned down his bar" if I emoted in this manner Tom would have no way of stopping me. The proper way of doing that emote would be "KSUspartan attempts to steal and drink all of Tom's beer" and then Tom could respond with something like "Tom calls the authorities" then if I still wanted to burn down the house I could do something along the lines of "KSUspartan attempts to burn down Tom's house in a drunken rage, but in his alcohol induced stupor he trips and hits his head on a brick thus passing out waiting to be apprehended by the authorities". In this way Tom has a chance of stopping me and avoiding the problem vs. him not being able to do anything about it.

Full Name:Togo Gamwich
Current Age:18
Sub-race (if any):Halfling
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): I am Togo Gamwich Halfling of the Vale and this is a brief journal of my life up to now. I had an average hobbit childhood, my parents are silly farmers living in their hobbit holes, we went to parties, harvested our crops, and ate delicious food. We would sometimes have parties in our modest hobbit hole and those were the best times of my life. Showing everyone around our home was so much fun. I always loved when I got to show our guests the pantry and they were amazed at how many delicious dishes my mother could make with just the wheat we grew in the front yard. She could make delicious sweet bread but our friends and family could never wait until dessert when she would put another one of her fabulous cakes on the table there would be gasps and salivating mouths everywhere you looked, it was amazing.
Since I have moved out of my parents hobbit hole I've been doing odd jobs here and there trying to safe up for a home to call my own. I'm not very good at saving the Minas I make though, it gets spent on mead the night after I earn at the very latest. Everyone also knows that know hobbit can come to a party empty handed so I spend some of my Minas on food to bring to parties also. I've recently been looking for an actual job so that I can make a more steady income to finally buy myself a place to call home.
Ambitions for the Future:[/b] I would like to create a large wheat farm so that I'll always have bread on the table and be able to buy a pint or two of the Vale's mead every once and a while. I would also love to work, manage, or even open a bar I love the parties that occur in the Vale's bars and would love to one day be the one catering to one of them.
Personality:[/b] I'm fun-loving, hard working when I need to be, and I love to party.
Skills:[/b] I know how to hoe a farm, plant seeds, bake bread, and spend Minas faster than I can make it.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):[/b]
Any other details you wish to share about your character:[/b] I'm trying to stop drinking as much as I do it's just kind of hard for me. All my friends and I go out and party whenever we can. But if I'm ever able to break my habit I will get myself my own home, farm/and or bar.

____
[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards theEmperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer:If I noticed a dark-clothed figure going up to the Emperor's palace I would yell for the guards as loud as I could. As the figure is obviously up to no good and being a hobbit I wouldn't be able to stop them myself. Though I cannot think of any reason why I would be in the human's capital anyways unless I successfully opened up my bar and we had the best mead in all of Aegis. But I guess that is all besides the point anyways. If said figure realized I was yelling at the guards trying to get him apprehended and he turned to me, I would turn tale and run all the way back to the Vale and never return to the capital again unless their was a huge opportunity for profit involved.
[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: Not sure what the armour and longsword is for, I would drop the cumbersome armor and hide the longsword that is much larger than I am and approach the men. I would try to offer them some free mead in exchange for the man's life. If they were to agree I would give them the mead and then help the old man back to the Vale where we would tend to him and offer him a couple pints of mead until he recovers. Once he recovers I would give him some Minas and let him go wherever he pleases or maybe he could even stay if it is okay with my fellow hobbits.
[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: I wouldn't ask for any items at first. I would ask him if he would like to take a trip to the local tavern and I'd buy him some mead. I would continue doing this for several nights, I'd talk with him and show him a hobbit's good time. We would do this regularly for around 7 days. Then I would tell him I would soon be returning to the Vale and ask him if he had any bread, wheat, seeds, or home decor for sale. I would make sure that I got the best price possible because we would have become good friends by this time.

Full Name: Meira Dawnhorn
Current Age: 18
Sub-race (if any): 95% High Elf, 5% Wood Elf (all she gets from her Wood Elven blood is her hair color.)
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Meira was born to a High Elven mother, and a mix of a High and Wood elf father. She is nearly purely a high elf, however, her hair is from wood elven heiritage. She was born and raised in ArmaLuna, where her childhood was spent scavenging. She found many seashells, which she cherished throughout her childhood. Her mother was a nurse, and Meira spent lots of time around her, which is where she gets her slightly advanced medical know-how. She is an extremely good charismatic speaker, and has succeeded in convincing people she is a pure High Elf. Her father sold rare items, too, and whenever she wasn't out scavenging, or with her mother, she was with him, where she learned her sales knowledge. She also liked to look at his jewlery, which she wished she had some to own. That dream came true when she was 12..
As Meira scavenged along the area where the beach met some woodlands, she discovered a fox pawing at the ground. After startling the fox away, she found the fox had exposed the top of a black object. She dug around the object, revealing an small ebony box inlaid with fine iron engravings and locks. Opening the box, she found 2 bracelets, the chains made of polished silver and the gemstones made of rubies. She put the braclets on, took the box as well, and ran off in joy of her find. This sparked her passion for fine jewelry like the braclets she found, which she still wears today, as well as a desire to create it. After saving up money from scavenging, she went to Sean Bradshaw, master blacksmith of ArmaLuna, to take classes in fine metalworking with materials like gold and silver. She also learned how to handle and shape gems, like rubies, emeralds, diamonds, etc. to use in the jewelry she wants to make. She took these classes up until she was 16, when her father was killed by an agressive merchant who, after causing a ruckus in his store, was asked to leave. The man, enraged, stabbed Meira's father several time in the neck and chest, killing him. Meira greived for many months over her father's death, but promised to live life in his memory, following in his footsteps as a merchant. Meira, now 18, is ready to go out on her own, and start her own jewelry buisness, hoping to create and sell treasures as great as what she found 6 years ago.
Ambitions for the Future: Have a house, own a successful buisness.
Personality: Normal, but a good buisnesswoman. She likes friends, and she likes to be alone sometimes. She prides in her ability to spot out well-made objects, like her amulet bracelets. She rarely brags, and her most prized possession is her braclets.
Skills: Charisma, Medicine, Speech,Gem finding/working, Metalworking (like silver and gold, etc.)
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
She wears a silver and ruby braclet, and has dark brown sandals. Her skin is light, and her hair is a messy, long dark brown. She wears a green tunic and has a wide belt.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: Meira is to be regarded as a high elf, although she has wood elven blood. Again, she only gets her dark brown hair from her wood elven blood.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer: I yell at the group of High Elves in defense of the young child. "Brutes! Why are you harrassing this little child? We are all brothers and sisters of Malin, and there is no need to treat each other unfairly!" They look to me, and stop. "There is no need for this. You act like humans, always at each other's throats- for what, even?" The high elves tilt their heads, and shake them. "Exactly. Now go on your ways, and leave eachother alone." They nod, and the high elves leave. I continue on my way, until I am almost tackled. I turn around, and see the small Wood Elf child. "Thank you so much, miss!" He says, smiling. I smile back, and pat him on the head. "Now, run along, and stay safe, little one." He releases his hug, and I continue on my road as he goes along his.
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 run up to the man, staring at him. "Are you alright?" He shakes, but does not respond. I quickly help him back up, and hand him his walking stick, making sure he has a good grip on it. "Stay there." I direct the man. I lean down and take out a small cloth and some string, and put the Minas in the cloth. I bring the corners of the cloth together and tie them with the string, and hand the pouch with the gold coins back to the man. "Thank you," he says weakly, "Bless your kind heart." I smile, as he does, as he walks away. I notice a single gold coin still lying there. After pondering for a while, I take the coin, grin to myself, and walk along my way.
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 walk up to his caravan. "Do you have any silver or gold ingots and jewels, as well as sculpting nails?" He nods, and pulls out a golden ingot, a box of assorted jems, and the nail that I use to sculpt some of my jewlery. "How much for everything?" I ask, and he nods, smiling. "240 Minas." He says, and my jaw drops. "Listen;" I say. "I'm too poor to pay all that, and I want to sell these to other people." I smile. "Tell you what: Come by my store, and I'll give you half off of one piece of jewlery, IF you cut your price down to 90 Minas. Plus, I'll throw in this silver ring." I pull out a sterling silver ring, shined and polished. "Of course, 100 Minas it is, mlady." He takes the ring and I take out 90 minas, place them down, and i take the box of jems, the nail and the golden ingot, and put it in a bag, and continue on my way.

Role-playing: Role-playing is the act of pretending to be someone in a fantasy world.
Meta-gaming: Meta game is like you cheat by doing something that your character doesn't know but you know OOCly like, if someone is coming to kill your character, and you heard about it on TeamSpeak or skype, your character doesn’t know it, but you know OOCly, then your character leaves the place in order to survive, that is an example of metagaming. Metagaming is cheap because it lets you do things which your character shouldn’t be able to do, or know things your character shouldn’t know.
.
Power-emoting: Power emoting is when a player do something to other player and the other player can’t react to it, like Player 1 cuts Player 2’s arm in a fight, it should be Player 1 ATTEMPT to slice at Player 2’s arm in a fight.This is to be fair and insure cooperative roleplay.

Full Name: Rowan Rolfe
Current Age: 28
Sub-race (if any): N/a
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Rowan grew up in a village on the outskirts of Alras, a thick mountain range bordering Seventis with his parents, he lived a very common life, his early childhood was spent playing with the other village boys and anticipating his dad’s return from the mines. He enjoyed fishing and the huge fairs which the nobles had put on to appease the peasants.
At the age of 14, Rowan was deemed old enough to be a “man”. Thus, he put aside his playtime to aid his father in the mines. This was hard work for a young boy; because Rowan was young he often had to cramp himself in mine shafts to get the hard to reach coal. It was scary to be in the mines as they shivered and moved with every step the miners took, but with his father at his side Rowan felt comfortable.
As time went by, Rowan became an adept miner being able to extract all sorts of jewels and gems. He even was given a few peasant militia trainings to make sure his physical condition was kept sharp, though he never participated in war. He lived a good, steady humble life, aiding his parents, but soon his father became ill with coal-lung, a common sickness of the mines.
Thus, Rowan had to work double shifts to provide medicine for his father. For many years his father slowly withered away in sickness, not quite dying but forcing Rowan to work excruciatingly hard, finding no time to settle down and get married as most men do. But at last, when Rowan was 27, he returned home with a pale father speaking his last words. Rowan’s father pleaded with Rowan to explore the countryside and move away from the humble village, as the elder Rolfe felt he had wasted away much of Rowan’s youth in servitude. As the father passed away, Rowan’s mother urged him to heed his father’s words, as since Rowan did not need to pay for medicine anymore Rowan’s mother could support herself with weaving and saved money over the years.
Rowan took one of the first ships to Elysium, and he seeks to find a new life. Rowan seeks to find a new lord and enjoy a good happy life, unlike the hard years where he was the only money source.
[b]Ambitions for the Future:[/b] Rowan doesn't really have any ambitions; he does his jobs and enjoys life for what it is. He's just looking to have a good, easy, happy life with some adventures apart, not become king.
[b]Personality:[/b] He’s a little bit lazy and doesn't care about the bad things that happens in life; he just rolls with the punches as a peasant's life often has many punches and unfortunate events. He’s got a tough skin when these events happen; he’ll cope and learn. He’s not much of a talker; he’s managed to read and write but he prefers to keep to himself, a strong silent type, especially since he is embarrassed for his poor language skills. He is rooted in feudal tradition and understands his place as a pauper peasant, but he does appreciate a pat on the back. He’s smarter than he looks, but keeps to himself, preferring to mine his ores and survey the rocks of the land, protected by his lord.
[b]Skills[/b]: His mining skill is his best ability; years of being with the earth has helped him mine and locate ores. He’s got a general skill in peasant work and labor, and given this rough lifestyle he’s developed a strong, lean body which is 1.78 meters and 83 kg, though he lacks fine swordplay skills to be a master swordsmen. He has a very good memory.

[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 eyes raise up as he notices the glint of a dagger hidden in the robes of the dark-clothed figure. Clearly this man was up to no good; Rowan’s curiosity lead him to follow the figure. However, he was not foolish enough to go alone. Tipping off a guard near the situation, he slowly stalked the figure with the guard a fair distance away. The man turns around as he notices Rowan’s heavy footsteps and hisses “ off, dirty peasant!” Rowan eyes widen as he mutters “Aye, what ye’ got in yer pouch and by yer waist?” The guard then appears out of an alley and seizes the figure; after performing a quick search the guard finds poison and a dagger on his body. The guard gives rowan a small sum for catching an assassin who was trying to kill a Silverblade noble, and Rowan spends the money on drinks with his friends to celebrate.
[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 try to sneak off from the situation and then get help from someone else more prepared for the situation.But if he doesn't find help he won’t come back, he wouldn’t risk his life for someone he doesn’t know. As he strolls through the forest, he sees little human interaction and no sign of civilization nearby. Rowan assumes a slight jog, both to get further away from the situation and to try and find help. He then hears a loud yell in the distance as the old man dies. Rowan sighs, but realizes there was nothing he could have done; fighting would have meant he would have probably died too. He tries to make his way back to a safe village, disappointed but moving on
[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: Rowan spends his money on things that will help him in his mining work, and to defend himself, so he approach the man and says “What have ye’ got fer a humble miner who just want to do his job pretty well and protect himself?”, then the man show him his mining tools.Rowan begs for low prices, but the man want more expensive prices. Rowan is living off peasant wages, and unfortunately he has to decline the man’s price. Thus, Rowan walks off to plead with his lord, so he may get better tools.

____
1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer: I walk towards the perpetrators and say "Why are you mocking this child?" The High Elves stop and say "Well... We were just...." I say "I know what you were doing...." I say "Why where you mocking the child?!" One of the elves says "This child is inferior to us superior High Elves." The other elf says "We mock his inferiority" The elves kick the child and the child falls to the ground. I say "No!" I take the elf child by the hand and run back to safety. I say while we are running away from the high elves. "So.... Where is your mother?" The child says "Just over by the Malinor gate." "A couple streets down." I say "Sure.." I dash for the house. I say "Ok found it!" I then return the child to his mother.
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 say "Do you need any help old man?" The old man sputters and coughs and says "Yes..... I dropped my coins..." I say "I can see that." I say "I'll help you up." I attempt to help the man up by grabbing on the the walking stick that was in his and in lifting him by the stick. The old man attempts to get up but then falls down again. I say "Are you alright old fellow?" The man says "Fine fine...." "Just help me up will ya!" I say "Sure then...." I grab the old man's hand and I lift slowly and carefully. The man gets to his feet and I push him up slowly. The man finally get back to walking and gives me a little wink like he is saying "Thank-You."
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: The item is a beautiful new fishing rod. I am very tempted to buy it but reach into my pocket and discover I have little money. The man says "I see you don't have much...." I say "I'm afraid so.." The merchant says "I could haggle a fair price if you'd like...." I say "How about 50 mina." The Merchant says "I'm afraid not. 75 and we'll make it a deal!" I say "What about 60 mina?" The Merchant says "You'd have to throw something a little extra to get the price." I say "I'll throw in these fish hooks!" (I show him the fish hooks.) The Merchant says "Aye! My wife is a collector of various knick-knacks.... She'll love this!" (I hand him the fish hooks and the 60 mina and he hands me the fishing rod.) The merchant says "Thanks lad!" (I wave goodbye as a run back to my house to look at my new acquired fishing rod.)

he stepped on land, he met a human girl her name was Adyny she was not a Mali’ame nor even a Mali she was a Valah a human. Zaker stayed on land for a long time. They got married and had a child they named him Athrilirr.
Childhood:
It was a sunny day Athrilirr was outside playing with his friends while his parent were still having breakfast, Athrilirr played with his friends outside all the time even when it was raining. He did not only play with his friends, his dad trained him in archery and even sword fighting because he hopes one day his own son would be out there and get all the gold he could get and make his father proud.
Some years passed and one Athrilirr’s 12th birthday he went with his friends on a small camping trip. His parents gave him all the things he needed. So of he and his friends went. They found a good spot and packed everything out, that’s when Athrilirr noticed that he forgot something at home. He ran home and suddenly heard a scream coming from the house he ran as fast as he
could, when he came there his mom and dad where gone and many things were knocked down. He looked out and saw a boat leave that’s when he understood that his parent were kidnapped and were on that boat.

Some years later when the house was fixed and Athrilirr was 36 he began thinking of becoming a pirate like his father, and find both his parents. He looked around for any crews, but it didn’t seem like there were so many in the Elven lands. So he left his house and left of to the human lands to see if there was a possible chance to find a crew. Of he went he brang his important belongings and the key for his house in case he came back.
Some months passed and he found himself in a pub full of pirates and mercenaries. There were huge ships outside and he decided to look if anybody needed a crew, he check all the normal sized boat and even some of the real small ones but no
luck to find. That’s when he saw it, a huge ship designed for heavy combat and it needed a crew so he ran over to the captain and asked for permission to join the crew.

A small note all of this connect so first 1 then 2 and then 3 happens.
1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer:
While taking a trip, Athrilirr hears a little boy whimpering. He decides to go and take a closer look; he climbs up a tree and looks down at the situation. It seems that a couple of High Elfs were mocking a Wood Elf; he knew they were High Elfs because of the
different skin color. Although Athrilirr is a pirate he does not tolerate someone mocking his kin, he decides to climb down and do something. So he climbs down and walks up slowly to the Elfs and grapes all the Elfs attentions, all of the High Elfs slowly creep up to him. Then suddenly they dash at him he grapes two of them and head-butt them with one another, the next two come and
then he moves to the side and they run into the trees. All of them were now lying down, Athrilirr walks up to the boy and says “Run boy, next time try to keep out of trouble.” So the boy ran away not saying a word, and Athrilirr kept on walking.
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:
Athrilirr sees a pile of coins one the ground and a man, an old man to be exact. He thinks quickly what to do, he is not so wealthy and really need some money to buy his food and all he needs. He decides to pick the man up and put him on a bench, right after that he runs for the coins and picks it all up. He runs as quickly as he can and suddenly stops, turns around and throws some money on the ground. He felt a little bad for the man, but had to do it to survive. So he keeps on walking thinking of what he did.
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:
Athrilirr continues walking and a man calls him over. Athrilirr walks over and says “Whatdo you want.”
“Look at all my wares is there anything you might like, food, weapons or perhaps clothing I am willing to haggle for the price.” He says with a wink in his eye.
“Well I may need some food and a pair of new shows and I’ll give 50 Minas for it.” Athrilirr replies
“I’ll let you have it for 100 Minas” The man says
“No way I’ll give you 75 Minas for it.” Athrilirr replies lowdly
“Deal, now here are your goods.” The man says while handing over the goods
“Thank you.” Athrilirr

Full Name: Gnarlan_Understone
Current Age: 24 Dwarven Years
Sub-race (if any): Cave Dwarf.
Clan (if any): Irongut Clan.
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):[/b]Gnarlan grew up in Kal'Urguan. His parents abandoned him at the age of 10 because they could not afford to pay for his food and school. A mid-aged stone miner named Rogdast found him in an alley and took him in and raised him to be a strong and sturdy Dwarf. By the time he was fifteen he was already in the mines slamming his pick into the stone everyday. But then a couple of years later the mines collapsed and he lost Rogdast to the rubble of the mine.
He had moved into the Army and kept on renting a room at an Inn in Kal'Urguan. He had gone to war with the Orcs two times so far and only came back with a broken leg and a weak wooden walking stick. He had healed from his war wound in half a year and went back out into the battlefield for the third time. He came back to the Inn with Orc skulls and Orc armour, a very precious but strong armour. When he was 20 he had become the leader of a platoon of Dwarves and went to fierce skirmishes with the Orcs but he had survived three battles. So he now works there to this day.
Ambitions for the Future: To adventure and to fight against the Orc's in massive wars.

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Role playing is exactly as its name suggests. Playing a role. One assumes the role of a character be it fictional or otherwise. A person while role playing has their character act according to a personality that they gave it that could be, but doesnt have to be completely different than their own. This gives a person the chance to almost live another life.
Meta-gaming: Meta gaming is the use of out of character information in character usually for an unfair advantage. This just means that any information that you know that your character would not know. This could be as simple as following an OOC map when your character is in unfamiliar territory or could be that you know from an outside source such as the forum that someone will attack your territory in a surprise attack and you prepare for it.
Power-emoting: Power emoting is using an emote to put a player in a situation where they cannot react. Such as saying *i rob you* or *i chopped off your head* . you cannot use emoting to force yourself into another players storyline or to avoid role playing to get a desired outcome.

Complete the following biography on your character:
Full Name: Irghils Avarson
Current Age: 26
Sub-race (if any): Northerner
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
To fully understand Irghils son of Avar you must not only know of his past but the events that came before him. In fact we will need to go back several generations to when his ancestors still lived in the realm known as Aegis. Irghils’ ancestors were members of a small noble house in the north of Aegis whose family name was but one of the many casualties of sundering of Aegis. Because of the harshness of the weather and the constant threat from the undead the family and the peasants living in their small settlement lived a good, but harsh life. This all changed when the undead started sweeping across Aegis, seeming to destroy all in their path. When the undead came upon Irghils’ family’s settlement they tried to hold back the undead in vain. All but a small group that escaped in the chaos of the battle were killed. In that small group was a small boy who would one day become Irghils’ grandfather. The group was lucky. They made it to the Verge and were on the boats that set sail for a new land eventually arriving at Asulon. As settlements in this new land started to be constructed Irghils’ grandfather was taken in by who was formerly a servant in his fathers house.
This is important because although much did not remain from his former life some did survive, mostly stories and a code that the family had lived by, something not too dissimilar from what was known as chivalry in another place and time. This code would be passed down from the boy to his son and eventually on to Irghils. This code would become an important factor for how Irghils lived most of his life.
Irghils was born in the settlement of Ager, both of his parents the decedents of the group that escaped the undead attack. He was not the first child in his family. His parents first child had died in his first year of life due to disease. His family were farmers, something that he was not very good at. In his childhood he would often run into neighboring wheat fields to escape his daily chores. There were always repercussions for his actions and many times he would go without dinner, or have extra chores done under the watchful eye of either his mother or father. His childhood was mostly uneventful, it was what was expected for a boy growing up in a farming community. There was one event that did leave its mark on his childhood that should have been a happy occasion. When he was 10 his mother died in childbirth and the child his sister did not last the night. Although it did have a lasting impact on Irghils it had a worse impact on his father. His father was a proud man and although he didn’t show it in public but at home he was a wreck for several years. During this time Irghils had to take more and more responsibility in the farming. He did his best but the harvests became scarcer and scarcer over the next few years, he never did seem to have the knack for farming. It took a long time but eventually his father returned to his normal self and life for the two of them returned to some semblance of normalcy.
This normalcy ended due to what seemed like mere chance. He met a member of the Order of the White Rose. The man was a knight of the order sent to take care of a few bandits that had made their base near the town. Irghils met the man in the local tavern and continued to talk to him over the next few days whenever he had the time. The night before the knight was to leave he asked Irghils to go with him and join the order. Irghils thought about the knights offer for a good while before talking to his father. While his father did not agree with his choice he understood it and was both sad and happy to see his son leave the town. In the morning Irghils gathered what few possessions he had and left with the knight for Rivia.
There he was trained first as a Footman. He found that due to his size and build he was quite good at fighting and quite quickly gained an apprenticeship with one of the more senior Men-at-arms. Eventually he was able to prove his worth and was elevated to the rank of Man-at-arms and even saw some actual combat during a few skirmishes.
Life was looking good for Irghils, he was helping to defend the Holy Oren Empire, the Order of the White Rose and the church and was seeming to do quite well at it. Then Irghils made a mistake. He got into a verbal fight with a superior officer, who happened to be the very same knight that had recruited him over some trivial subject. Irghils wouldn’t back down even after he had been proven wrong in the argument and the verbal battle quickly turned physical. The fight was quickly broken up but the damage was already done. He was lucky, he was only exiled from the order with most of his possessions striped from him.
The first couple months after his exile were tough for him. He didn't know what to do, he wandered around the Capital Arethor for several months. Even though he was so close to his former home Ager he never returned. He eventually found out quite by accident that he could use some of the combat skills he had learned with the order to earn a living. He had stopped what appeared to a robbery on one of the roads leading out of the capital and it turned out there was a bounty on one of the robbers. Since then he has traveled around the Holy Oren Empire and even beyond it working as a mercenary. He has tried his best to adhere to the code of his forefathers and not sink to the depths that it seems that others in his line of work tend to fall to.
Ambitions for the Future: Making money and growing stronger in combat while trying to help some people along the way.
Personality: Irghils has been hardened by some of the events in his life and as such he is not a trusting person even of his friends. He is clever, maybe even considered intelligent although he is completely illiterate. He is not fast to anger although when he does become angry it is not pleasant to be in the same room as him. He generally is a good person willing to help anyone in need no matter who or what race they are. He does not have a way with words and prefers for his actions to speak for him. One of his shortcomings is that like his father he is a proud man, too proud and sometimes this can get him into trouble.
Skills: Farming, trained warrior.

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: Seeing the shady looking figure at first I don't pay him any mind. But he peaked my curiosity. After watching him for a moment it looked like he was heading for the Emperor’s palace. Looking to my left the guards that I had saw earlier are in the same spot and also seem to be oblivious to the shady individual. Standing up from the bench that I had been resting on I decide to take matters into my own hands. I try to follow him into the ally that he had just walked into without being noticed. I accidentally made one too many heavy footfalls because as soon as I turned the corner the man was rushing at me with a dagger in his hand. My instincts kick in at this point barely dodging the man’s thrust with the weapon. I think that there is no question that I would be able to take this man down but that would be too much trouble. After barely dodging another of the man’s attacks, this time cutting my shirt and scratching my skin I yell as loud as I can “Guards!”. At this point I could see the mans eyes under his cloak and I could see fear in his eyes. The man runs back the way he came and as I emerge from the ally I see the guards chasing after him. Its now that I notice the small sting on my chest and look down annoyed that the the small amount of blood from the wound had ruined my shirt. I have half a mind to go find that man, he owed me a new .
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?
Answer: After hiding behind some vegetation at the edge of the clearing I realise that i'm just too far away to be able to make out what they are saying. I look around but it doesn't look like i would be able to get any closer without being seen. I decide that the best course of action would just be to wait to see what is actually going on. He didn't want to just rush in there to have it be some sort of misunderstanding. After the two men start to push the old man around I don't see any other choice and get up from my hiding place and start moving towards the men. Luckily I was approaching from the rear of the two men who were antagonising the old man and it was only when I was about ten feet away from them that they heard me and turned around. “Can I help you two?” I asked. Both of the men now drew their swords. “If you know what is good for you you will leave the way you came real quick like.” The first said while the second pointed his sword at me. [/b]
“Im sorry but im going to have to ask you to stop bothering this old man” I say my hand moving to rest on the pommel of my sword. The two bandits looked at eachother and then back at me. “Well we warned you.” The second one said before slashing at me with his sword. I was able to duck and role under the strike drawing my sword as I got back to my feet. The first of the two bandits had drawn his sword by now and I rushed at him making a few attacks that were all blocked and then barely blocking a strike from the second bandit. The first then made a mistake making a double handed overhead strike hoping to break my block but instead I was able to make a quick stab to the man's gut. He tried to get out of the way
but it was in vain as my sword went right through him. I had to dive to the right in order to not get hit by a quick attack from the now enraged remaining bandit. My hands could not keep the grip on my sword and I now found myself without a weapon. The bandit had an evil smile on his face as he walked toward me that quickly turned to shock and pain as he quickly exhaled and fell forward, the old mans blade in the mans back. I looked around confused. I was happy that this was over but the old man was nowhere in sight. I assumed that he had threw the blade and made a run for it but I shuddered to think that it was some sort of magic. I looked over the bodies for any valuables, finding little and then covered the bodies the best I could.
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).
Answer: Walking up to the stall i'm not looking forward to this. Merchants are always annoying to deal with. It takes too long to get even a fair price for anything. “What a nice day this is isn't it sir? So what can I do for you on this fine day?” The halfling spoke cheerily to him. “I need enough dried food to last for a 10 day journey. “Is that all? I just happen to have a fresh supply of jerky. A 10 day supply, that would be 35 minas” the halfling replied. I sigh pulling out my gold pouch. “Look I know that that much would not be worth more then 20 minas, but i'll just pay 25 it that will avoid unnecessary haggling.” The halfling looked at him strangely before laughing and started to pack up the meat in a cloth. “You know what, I like you lets call it 22 minas and i'll wish you a good trip.” I smile and pull the money out of my pouch and hand it to the halfling. Taking the jerky I wish him a good day and move on to gather the rest of the supplies I would need.

Full Name: Korthos Iretheus Ironcrow
Current Age: 37
Sub-race (if any):
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Korthos is the ******* son of a prostitute and some unknown peasant. The madame raised him as her son, but left him on the streets of Alras at the age of seven, for economical reasons. Korthos had to live off whatever he was able to steal from local merchants, and went by the name Ironcrow, his ******* name. At age 16, he fell in love with the beautiful noble girl, Agnethe Dandellion. She named him Korthos after her great-great grandfather. Their relationship had to stay secret however, because her father, lord Morthyn Dandellion, wanted her to marry a nobleman. A man saw them in the woods, and told her father. When he heard about it, he beat her, and days after, she committed suicide.
Infuriated beyond belief, Korthos killed Morthyn with a stab through the heart with a stolen shortsword, but he didn't run away. No. He was going to pay for his actions. When the guards appeared, he let them capture him. At his execution, a lord of House Carrion saw his passion and potential and bribed the guard to let him go. In return, Korthos had to become an eunuch and serve as a bodyguard. He was then named Korthos Iretheus, though he still uses his ******* name at times.
Ambitions for the Future: Serve House Carrion until death, find inner peace. He has gone through a lot, so he doesn't need any adventures. Doesn't mean he won't get any though.
Personality:
-He has led a terrible life, so he does not fear death.
-He is emotionally unstable. He goes from cold and stoic, to very emotional, and he has problems expressing his emotions.
-He is stubborn. Changing his ways is close to impossible.
-He is loyal beyond belief, and will follow orders to the word.
-He is creative and artistics, and try to express his emotions through the arts.
Skills: Swordfighting, archery, parkour, painting, poetry.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Korthos is a tall, pale, muscular built Northerner with a young looking face. He has messy half-long brown hair and his body is covered in scars. His right eye is made of glass, the other one is blue-grey. The left middle finger is missing. He is an eunuch.
He wears a blue-grey brigandine, a steel gorget and a plate covering the upper chest. On his back is a brown hide cloak, and on his shoulders, steel spaulders. On his feet and hands he has brown leather boots and gloves. On his legs he wears red and white vertically striped trousers. Covering his arms is a dark grey cardigan, which he wears beneath the brigandine. He wields a longsword.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: He is normally a tough guy, but at times, he gets emotional and sensitive, thinking about his youth, and sitting on the rooftops in solitude, writing poems and painting the landscape.

____
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: "Oi! Wha's yer bisness in the palace?" I say. He doesn't reply, and walks past me. "Strolling our way to the palace, are we? Clad in coal black rags? Ye kno' they'll stop ya, so 'less ye want to ge' yerself a ba'le, ye be'er turn 'round now." " off" he says, pushes me away, and runs. "Wha' ye fink yer doin'?" I say, then I pursue him, push him down on the ground, hold him there, and shout "Guards! Guards!" The black-clothed man pulls a dagger on me, trying to stab me. The guards appear, take him, and I get away with a few cuts on my chest and arms.
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?
Answer: I try to sneak up behind them, throw a big rock at one of the goons, leaving him unconcious. Then me and the old man are outnumbering the remaining bandit. "Wha' are ye doin' here?" I shout. "Mind yer own damn business" he says. He focuses on me, knowing that if he attacked the old man, I could kill him. Still he tries to keep an eye on the both of us. "Muggin' an ol' man eh? Yer be'er than that! Leggit now, or we will kill ya." "I will." The bandit pretends to be turning away, then leaps at the old man, stabbing him through the stomach, quickly turning around and facing me. "Ain't this a thrill." I swing my blade at him, but I miss. He stabs me in the thigh, leaving me bleeding on the ground, before looting the old man and his friend, then runs off.
3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall.

Answer: "Oi! Do ya have sum brandy? I don' hav much coin," I say.
"Well... I hav this an' this an' this li'l flask here. This one's thinned out, so it's cheaper." he replies.
"How much for the darker one?"

"Well... I dun hav the cash. How 'bout that one?

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards theEmperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]
Answer: He is clearly going to assassinate the emperor or other important people. What I would do is get a guard nearby me to assassinate the assassin with a dagger. If he is good with weapons and blocks it I would attack him. I would also notify a guard to give the emperor more safety. So the assassin would fail his job.
[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 first break up the fight. I would see what is happening. Whoever did the bad thing would be threatened with my longsword. If it was the bandits I would kill them. If it was the man I would tell him to go in his cottage and leave them alone.
[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:I would want ghast tears, nether wart, and redstone. He would give a big price and I would deny. I would give him a price that is agreeable and he would agree. So I would get what I want and he would to. We would go on with our day in the peaceful human city.

Full Name:Rick Felder
Current Age: 28
Sub-race (if any):
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
My name is Rick Felder. When I was born in Arethor my father named me Rick because that was my great grandfather's name. Why did he name me that because my great gandfather was a very nice man and he was a very brave man to. He knew alot about the wilderness and loved to adventure forests like all my family does. My father always wanted me and my brothers to be great explorers when we grew up because that's what he did most of his life. My brother's names were Marcus and Jonathan Felder. Marcus was about 4 and Jonathan was about 2 when I was born. I was the youngest kid in the whole entire family.
When I turned about 5 when my Mom told us stories and ways to be good people like say no thanks when you want some and say please when you do want something. My father started teaching us stories how everyone used to live in a place called Aegis. Even though my brothers didn't believe I did because he said that the story was passed down by my great great gandfather Erohern Felder. When I turned 7 mom got sick and died. My dad thought it was a plague like sickness so he wanted me and my brothers to stay away from people. 5 days later we got news that my mother ate something poisonous and got sick and died. It felt terrible having my mom die. The funeral was vey sad and depressing. The night after the funeral we sung mom's favorite song. We sang it every night before bed. When I turned 10 it was the best birthday I ever had. Even though my mom wasn't there I had fun playing some of the games and just ran around and had fun. That night I had a dream that my mother was standing in my room with some tea and breakfeast. My mother made the always made the best kind of tea. She gave me it I siped it I could taste it in my mouth. My father woke me up and it made me sad because it was my last dream about my mom.
When I turned 13 my dad and I went fishing. We shared great memories but then my dad said," Son we need to stop thinking about mom and start learning about the wilderness,". We learned alot about the wilderness till I was 16. In my 16's we fished and farmed alot and went to markets got seedlings and that was a vey fun year for me. By the time I was 17 my brothers adventured mountains, and cities like Solace. I was still at home helping my father with fishing,hunting,farming,and cooking even though hunting was my favorite he took me hunting 2 times a week. When I turned 23 my father died by drowning in a river. He fell into it I tried to reach him but it was to late and he couldn't breathe and died. My house was demolished because I couldn't pay for it. I was broke I only had like 5 minas.I started adventuring and hunting, I climbed trees and thats where I lived everyday I'd run through towns to keep me fit. The thing I wanted to do is become a soilder for the Holy Oren Empire.

Full Name:Alakar Forkbeard
Current Age:He is slightly into 9 seasons (64)
Sub-race (if any):Mountain
Clan (if any):Forkbeard
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Alakar spent his childhood riding on an orc's shoulders. Alakar was abandoned at birth, deemed a weakling.
True, he wasn't born with bulk, but his life has bestowed it on him. He was abondoned in a hole in the ground, left to die as wolf bait. A strange occurance happened. An orc was
approaching the hole to see if he could get whatever bait the dwarves had left. You see, this orc was shunned and hated for his soft nature. He was a strange one growing up, no
name, no will to hunt or fight. He grew up as a special case. The leader of his small tribe took a rare pity on the boy, and allowed him to grow, so they could see what man he
would become. Needless to say, he grew up caring, the example of pity as a role to play. This orc found Alakar abandoned and rescued him. Alakar was nurtured, and protected. He did grow
to be strong, as his host refused to hunt, and Alakar hates the taste of apple.(Just a quirk)
He was brought up in the ruined hold of Kal'Dwain. The ruin was always empty. No wandering bandit entered, nor any hunter stopped for respite. The place seemed cursed, but it was the
only home Alakar ever knew. Life was self-sustained. Once Alakar could hunt, the orc left him to provide for the two. Alakar hunted with a wooden axe he fashioned with a small knife he
found. He prefers the axe because he prefers his weapon to hae multiple uses, and since the axe is also used to cut down trees, he sees a large advantage in using it. For a mountain dwarf,
he truly prefers the surface to the cavernous tunnels that most dwarfs find solace in. Alakar and the orc left Kal'Dwain when Alakar was well into his second season (17). They traveled along
a small worn out road.
They came across a burning campsite one day, near his third season (19). Upon inspection, they found it to be the orcs tribe. Dead, with him alive. He underwent a complete personality change.
The orc now was the only one to hunt, bringing back game that was battered and cut up. The meat was like strips for stew. The way Alakar knew the orc's story, he wondered why the orc was
taking the burining so hard. Alakar came to a sound conclusion at: The tribe may have treated the orc with hate, the orc still cared for those who took pity on him. Living with the orc was never
the same.
The orc is dead now. After the burning, he took total, almost maternal protection over Alakar. Alakar was the only person he had left. He died on the first day of Alakar's 7th season(49).
The two came upon an elven beggar on the road. It was odd, since all of the elves Alakar had met on the roads had been proud. Too proud to ask for money. At first shimmer of coin, the
beggar jumped up with a dagger, as did his fellow bandits. They were mugging us for all of our posessions. They were out to leave us naked on the road. The orc saw all the danger, and flew
into an extravagant rage(described as so, because it truly was a sight to see.) The orc killed them like he was chopping saplings. Alakar was stunned to see such fury from his caretaker.
THe person who had taught him to be gentle was now murdering the common bandit. One of them got a lucky shot, and put an arrow clean through him. The orc fought on, his rage dwindleing with
each kill. At long last the bandits were dead. The orc slid to the ground, dying along with the rest. As Alakar tried to save him, the orc whispered his last words: [/b]"Make no mistake, I wish
you to be the most fearsome one of all."[b]That day, Alakar took up a stone blade from the hands of one of the dying highwaymen. Alakar abandoned all hope of gentleness, or peace. He was out for
vengeance now, and he was going to receive it.
The bandits were part of a larger group. Alakar had tracked them to a longhouse, long abandoned in a lush jungle. As Alakar entered, he watched all 15 bloodthirsty eyes fall on him, and his
branded sword. One of the shouted "Eh? Watcha cravens waitin' for? Get Um!" All of them ran to arms, and returned ready for a fight. Their leader walked down the stairs in the far right corner.
"Oy!" he said, "Don't burn thissun, aight?" The bandits nodded approval, and grabbed a considerably long rope. Alakar was fighting for vengeance, but his main focus at this point was PERSONAL CONCERN.
Alakar fought them off in waves of three or four. They were considerably slow, so fighting more than one was a task to be attempted by a child. They all fell to Alakar's sword, brought down by their
own blade. Their leader, a vicious warrior named "Owlbear" came to arms with a diamond axe. "Found thissun in the 'ands of a dead captain. Zombie, o'course, but it gets the job done.
Alakar had no qualms about killing Owlbear. His sword clashed with the axe repeatedly. Finally, Alakar's sword broke. Alakar awaited the final blow, but it never came. He was tied up and tortured.
Owlbear put small quantities of poison in Alakar's water, not enough to kill him, but enough to cause agony. Next to that, Owlbear cut him, then quickly stopped the bleeding. All of Alakar's food was
rotten flesh. Everything happened so fast, when Alakar woke up the next day, he had no memory of the torture, yet he could no longer feel anything. Owlbear knew this, and decided to finally kill Alakar.
Right before the final strike, Owlbear's mouth began flowing red. He fell to the floor, a sword in his back. Behind him knelt the orc, alive. It was a beautiful reunion, yet it was not long. For when
I said the orc's last words, those wre his last words. The orc had crawled here, tracking Alakar's sloppy trail. The orc had stopped the bleeding through him, and removed the arrow, yet it hade fell
to infection first. The orc died, smiling.
Alakar left the jungle, and started searching for his true clan. He went to the Ironguts, and the Doomforged. Neither knew him. When Alakar went to the Forkbeards, they remembered the record of the
wolf bait child. That was the day Alakar knew his name. Alakar Forkbeard.[/b]
Ambitions for the Future: Alakar hopes to rekindle respect within his clan. He also hopes to someday learn the name of the orc that protected him through eight seasons.
Personality:Alakar was raised to be gentle, yet with the orc's personality change, and final wish, he is questioning how he should live.

[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:The sight of the bridge caused a shiver to crawl up my spine. I've never liked heights. The diamonds would make me a rich dwarf. In that moment, a shine of true dwarven greed shone in my eyes.
I made a rash decision and regretted it. I walked over to the bridge. Deep caverns were below. I took a step out. One foot after another. One foot after another. I looked to see how far I was. Smack-dab
in the middle of the bridge. I froze, nable to continue. "One foot after anothe-" and the rocks came down. I sprinted as fast as my stubby legs could go. I dove for the other side. I landed well over,
but noticed my pick was gone. I glanced to the edge and found it balancing on the edge. I crept over, making as little vibrations as possible. I grabbed the pick and breathed a sigh of releif. As I walked,
I tripped. Out of my hand flys the pick, stright into the ceiling over the chasm. Rocks fell like there was no tomorrow. The casm filled up, my only pick at the bottom. I had a clear path back across, and,
in defeat, I left the diamonds to someone less clumsy.
[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:"Aye! Leave the lad 'lone," I yell. The two dwarves look over, surprised. They retort "Mind yer own buisness, ya craven!" I realize they're not going to stop approaching the young dwarf, and kick
my chair back to show I was going to stop them. The unarmed one pulls a sword from behind his chair. After clashing with the one with the sword, I backhand that gor-bellied half-troll, and kick him in the
spine. I notice that the other's knife was planted in my leg. I call out in pain. I pull out the knife, and get into a struggle. After wrestling the dwarf for a short time, I wrentch the dwarf's hand off my
neck. He spins off into a wall. I grab him and slam him into the wall. He grabs a chair and hits my head. I fall to the ground and am pumeled with kicks from the man's boot. Honestly, too much heel for a guy.
I grab his foot, and trip him. He falls, and I stand. I kick his head, and he passes out. I go to comfort the young dwarf, but he's gone.
[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]
Answer: "Thats was an interestin' tale. This dwarf handed me a mug o' warm ale, and I gladly accepted. Ya know no self-respectin' dwarf would turn it down. I took a sip, and found it to be surprisin'ly good.
The dwarfs grin grew the more I drank. I had gone from small sips ta the big ole gulps. I felt woozy tha more I drank. I had guesses it was tha ale, but then me belly turned ta a bloody pain. This dwarf laughed as
I cringed in pain. He chuckled out a sentence 'Eh, maybe ya shouldn't be so quick ta trust, eh?' I, o'course, was doubled over in pain, so I had no response for tha *******'s treachery. I woke up upsidown, danglin'
from a tall rock. The dwarf appeared and said 'Don't bother, already robbed ya blind.' I struggled anyway. This jackhole felt that robbin' me weren't enough. He robbed me down to the last scrap of cloth.
I fell from tha rock, and the theif was gone. I never saw 'im again."

Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: This is where you act out as a character in a specific environment. WoW servers that are roleplay act out as if they were the character they portray. An orc would act like an orc should act, not the way any person playing an orc would act.
Meta-gaming: This is similar to dramatic irony in literature, where the audience knows information the characters don't. Similarly, meta-gaming is using outside information to keep your character at advantage.
Power-emoting: This is when you force an action on another player, like if someone says
Jon killed Arwin in one shot
You would say
Jon attempted to shoot an arrow at Arwin

Complete the following biography on your character:
Full Name: Elensar Periculus
Current Age: 68
Sub-race (if any): High Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Elensar was born among the Mali'Aheral, in ArmaLuna. His parents were scientists coming up in the world. They both were a bit xenophobic among their subrace, and as a result Elensar got little contact with Dark Elves and Wood Elves in his life. Instead, much of his childhood he remembered learning the clerical arts from his parents, and helped many fellow high elves. Of course, being born in ArmaLuna, he could not help but learn the ways of the strings too. Eventually, he grew up to be well versed on his lute.
About another 30 years and still living among his parents, the Periculus family moved to the capital, Normandor. They were embraced with many fortunes. Elensar began his life as a cleric in training. The family soon became the average family in Normador, until Elensar's 50th birthday, when his belongings and possessions were entirely robbed. Up until that point, Elensar had a pretty positive outlook on life, and was very optimistic. However, for the first time in his life, he felt rage. Immediately, he set his eyes on the Dark Elves, for no other reason than the fact that he sees many of them dressed in dark colors, which signifies thief attire. He followed a couple dark elves, noticing the jewelry they wore and thinking it to be stolen, not knowing it was truly theirs as family heirlooms. He carried a sword and a few offensive spells and demanded that they show themselves when they were cornered at a lake and a tree root. A mistake was at his part; Elensar was beaten greatly by the elves' knack at hand combat. The greates of the wounds is an ugly purple scar that is permenantly etched alongside his left cheek.
Elensar changed that day on his 50th birthday. For the first time, his family knew poverty. His prejudice towards other elves only increased more. As time progressed, however, the wounds of his family were healed, as a sympathetic high elf who had connections to the Heial'Thilln (Silver Council) had heard their story and helped their fellow kin back on their feet. As a payment of their debt to the stranger (who chose to remain anonymous, going by 'Mali'Hiylun- The Elf that follows health') and as a result of his severe beating, Elensar decided to become a master in combat, to become a 'batlle-cleric'. The High Elves greatly appreciate what they call a 'civilized warrior, and Elensar would certainly deliver. He continues to train his magics and swordsmanship to match and sooner than later conquer over the elves beneath him. He will soon become 'Master Peliculus'.
Personality: Determined. He won't let any tragedy get in his way, not after he had been through the worst of it. He is xenophobic, meaning he is hesitant in contacting other elves, but otherwise he is quiet and calculating. However, a few drinks may make him soon singing songs he learned from the Bard's School.
Skills: Medicinal skills, farming, swordsmanship. Also quite well at performing for entertainment as well as performing magic.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
Any other details you wish to share about your character: Although his name is fully 'Elensar Peliculus', he prefers going by 'Master Peliculus'. However, he needs to realize that he needs to live up to that name.
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 High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer:
Master Peliculus, approaching elven group: Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya, kin. What have you occupied yourself in doing now?
Elf 1: Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya. See that poor boy over there?
MP: Yea?
(pauses)
Elf 2: No, do you see him? His clothes would make a dark elf shiver pale!
(laughter ensues)
Elf 1: No, but honestly, I can't bear the thought of living among the frail ones as him. Their skills consist of their height near matching humans and dropping swords on their feet!
MP: (chuckles) I often though the same things before, but heed my words, kin. You shall not underestimate them.
Elf 2: What makes you say that?
(nudge from the first elf)
Elf 2: Oh, right. I forgot...
MP: (Smiling) Kin, you have a mission to attend here. Don't make the same mistake I made (brushes scar in memory). To subdue them is to allow us to prosper.
Elf 1: If I let you preach any longer, I would think you as a follower of 'religion' (laugh weakly)
(Master Peliculus pats both elves on the back, and walks away, glaring at the wood elf child with a cold face)
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:
MP: Hail traveler! Allow me to help you up.
Old Man: (being pulled up by Master Peliculus) Oy, a High Elf! Believe me when I say I never thought I'd see you in these woods.
MP: (laughs) Then you must have never come to these lands before, stranger. You hail from the human lands?
OM: Aye (bends over to pick up coins). Though we 'humans' tend to call it the Empire. I hail from Arethor, surely you've heard of it?
MP: Aye I have-- say, you won't find it odd if I assist you in picking up the coins, do you?
OM: Whuzzat? Oh, no, I know an honest fellow when I see one.
MP: (smiles) What makes you think I am honest? Just hypothetical.
OM: Hypo- what?
MP: Hypothetical. It means the question is used in a 'what if' scenario.
OM: Well, uh, you see, many of the bandits I have come across have been humans
MP: (looks at coins) You've been robbed?
OM: I hide it well, but that's besides the point. Every elf I've met-- and that's not a lot mind you-- seem to be honest fellows.
MP: (picks up last coin, handing it to old man) You've met other elves?
OM: Oh no lad, that is way before this incident. I've come here because I've missed a carriage ride to Arethor. I believed the carriage must have gone this way, but my sense of direction may be off...
MP: (thinks for a while) Tell you what human. If you tell me your story, I will assist you to a nearby inn and hire a carriage for you.
OM: (smiles and agrees. Both walk towards elven inn)
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:
MP: Ok trader, I've finally decided what I want to buy.
Trader: Finally! I swear it took you a good three hours to decide!
MP: I want a sheath.
TR: Okay
MP: and an amulet
TR: Sure,
MP: And I finally want a stick
TR:... Just a stick? What do you want to do with a stick?
MP: I am willing to buy all three for 50 coins.
TR: Whoa, whoa, whoa. I may have been a haggler, but 50 seems too low.
MP: Take it or leave it
TR: Are you deaf boy? No deal!
MP:... Alright, how about same price, but without the sheath?
TR: Hmm... The price of an amulet alone is at least 120 coins. and a stick... probably not even worth a set price.
MP: Okay, I will pay 100 coins, both stick and amulet.
TR: Ok, that I can do!
MP: But the stick you choose must be of the Elder Tree
TR:... Hold on, you aren't going to be making a wand, are you?
MP: Take the price trader, or leave it.
TR:...(thinks long) Okay, I guess I will take the deal. BUT I've got a better one for you. Twice the price, and I'll add in the sheath.
MP: (wonders) I don't care for the sheath anymore
TR: But how else will you carry your sword?
MP: Holding is fine by me. Works most of the time.
TR: Okay then, (sigh), let me see if I have a 'stick' (rummages through carriage) Here you go, I can't believ I actually found one!
MP: (hands over coins) Okay trader, i bid you good day (walks away muttering arcanic speech)

Answer: try to get into a position were you would be able to ambush the the bandits before they can attack back, this way you should be able to take out at least one of them before the other would know what is happening and by then you should be able to get out of range from the others sword in time before he can strike.

[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: Gnarlan_Understone takes note of the diamond vane and where it is. he then goes back to a nearby village/city he finds a few miners at an tavern. "Any of ye want to share a vain of diamond with meh'" Gnarlan says to the half drunken miners. "Ye' why not!" one of the miners yelled. "Yeah! lets get some diamond eh'" said the others. So we all get our supplies and a few pieces of stone to help support the bridge when we get there. When we arrive at the diamond ore Gnarlan_Understone says "Eh' here it is, the diamond ore!". "Oh my goodness! Mate were all gonna' be rich!" one of the now sober dwarves says. "But how do we get over dat bridge ladsh... *hiccup!*" says one of the dwarves. " We run over it maybe." said the sober dwarf. " I guess... one at a time though.... here goes!" Gnarlan_Understone yells as he runs down the bridge *crack!* the bridge starts to fall and Gnarlan leaps for his life to the other side. *poomph!* Gnarlan fell onto the other side of the ravine but may of broken a finger. "Ouch!" Gnarlan yells. "Here we'll make a cobblestone bridge!" yells one of the Dwarves. here it comes, the Dwarf tosses it over to Gnarlan and Gnarlan nearly falls of the ledge he is standing on while trying to catch it. He then fixes the cobblestone to the open space. "You place down the rest!" Gnarlan_Understone tells the other Dwarves. "Ok" says the sober Dwarf. He fixes about 5 pieces of cobble in just a few minutes, it is now time to test the handmade bridge. "I'll go first!" says one of the drunken Dwarves. He tip toes steadily and makes it to the other side if the ravine. "I guess its safe." Gnarlan says to the Dwarves as they go one by one to the other side of the ravine by the handmade bridge. "Yes! It worked!" yelled one of the Dwarves. "Indeed... now for the diamond!" I say to the Dwarves. "But theres four of us and there is only three diamond eh! What do we do?" Says the sober Dwarf. "Someone could give up their piece." I tell the Dwarves. "Never it's all mine!!!" One of the Dwraves yells and pulls out his blade. *slash* The Dwarf swings his sword at one of the Dwarves that was not paying attention to the swing and ends up killing him. "Nooo!" Gnarlan yells. "Come ere' lil' Dwarf!" Gnarlan yells again *ching!* *ching!* I slash at the Dwarf but he blocks the attack then he slashes at my head but ends up cutting of some of my hair. The other two Dwarves drwa their axes and swing at the drunken Dwarf, *crack!* one of the Dwarves splits the bandits skull. "*sighs* That was close... now we get a diamond each.". All three of the Dwarves mined their diamonds and walked over the bridge one by one and made it back to the tavern to get drunk all over again.
[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: I keep sat and I watch the two Dwarves walk up to the sad Dwarf, "Why ye' cryin' to your self mate?" The Dwarf with the dagger asks him. "*sobs* I just lost me baby to an Elven thieve *sobs* all I have now is his toy that he loved!" says the Dwarf. "Come outside and lets make a deal" says one of the Dwarves. As they walk outside Gnarlan stands up with his mug of ale and walks outside casually. "We can get your baby back all we need is information on what youre baby looks like and what the Elven thieve looked like." said the Dwarf as they started to bring the man down an alley-way. As Gnarlan walks back inside the tavern Gnarlan hears a yell, "AHHH!". Gnarlan sprints outside and spots the helpless DWarf being pulled away in a carrage. So Gnarlan runs to the guard wondering down the street and says "Oi', ye' there there are two thieves over there down that alley that just kidnapped someone!" then the guard ran that way but hour after hour Gnarlan waited and the guard neverand was never heard of again, so Gnarlan_Understone walked to his home and the next day he wandered off to Oren.
[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]
Answer: "Why are ye' grinning mate?" I ask the bar owner. "I just brewed up some of the best ale in Asulon!" says the bar owner. "And why do ye' have a bar all the way down ere' instead of up in Karik?" I question the man. "Erm... sometime Dwarven explorers wander down these caverns and come to get a good ol' pint of ale from me." Answers the bar owner. "I should be going." I say while I walk down the cavern. "Wait!" yells the bar owner. "When I tell you to have a pint of ale you have the pint of ale!" the bar owner threatens. "Are ye' challenging me?" I ask the bar owner. "Ye!" he replies. "Hahahaha... bring it on!" I tell the bar owner. Then the bar owner charges at me with a kitchen knife and just as I pull out my sword the bar owner
swings at my finger making it bleed rapidly. "Arrrgh!... Yah!" I yell as I fiercely swing my sword at the bar owners head "CHING!" the two swords meet. Then as the bar owner lifts up his knife I pull a hunting knife out of my leather pocket and throw it at the bar owners head. "POOMPH!" the body hits the ground in a rush and a heap of dust flies in the air. Gnarlan then hides the bar owner and carries on down the caverns.

Full Name: Civir'Mayllu Chirr'Igne
Current Age: 125
Sub-race (if any): Wood Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): The Chirr'Igne Family was a small family who lived in a cottage in Malinor. Born into a family of fisherman, Civir'Mayllu was named "The Loved Fisherman" since his mother and father loved him so much. He grew up as a Wood Elf raised to be a fisherman. He remembered how he evacuated with his mother and father from Aegis fleeing in terror, and how they soon found a whole new beautiful land. His father taught him how to fish and how to run a fishing business. He soon knew all he could about running a fisherman's business and how to be streetwise.
Later on in his life as a full grown man he made his keep selling fish in the streets of Malinor and bought a house of his own. Although he always yearned for adventure he kept it to himself in fear his mother and father would be angry. He read many books and was fascinated at all the tales of the beyond and adventurous souls. He soon opened a small business instead of selling on the streets and met many adventurers whilst selling. He talked to the adventurers and most conversations ended up like this. The adventurer would say "Hello. I would like to buy...." I would cut them off "You look like an adventurous fellow!" I would examine their clothes eagerly. Then the adventurer would normally say with an accomplished grin on his/her face. "I...Why yes...." "I have been on many adventures!" I'd say "Really? Could you tell me about one?" They would say "I have been through abandoned mines....." "Haunted castles..." "Many lethal situations..." I would say "Yes?" The adventurer would then normally tell me a story of one of their amazing adventures. Although I never got that much business because I was normally off daydreaming or cracking jokes to the customers. I still live in Malinor in my small store..... Dreaming..... Waiting for something exciting or more in life.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer: I walk towards the perpetrators and say "Why are you mocking this child?" The High Elves stop and say "Well... We were just...." I say "I know what you were doing...." I say "Why where you mocking the child?!" One of the elves says "This child is inferior to us superior High Elves." The other elf says "We mock his inferiority" The elves kick the child and the child falls to the ground. I say "No!" I take the elf child by the hand and run back to safety. I say while we are running away from the high elves. "So.... Where is your mother?" The child says "Just over by the Malinor gate." "A couple streets down." I say "Sure.." I dash for the house. I say "Ok found it!" I then return the child to his mother.
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 say "Do you need any help old man?" The old man sputters and coughs and says "Yes..... I dropped my coins..." I say "I can see that." I say "I'll help you up." I attempt to help the man up by grabbing on the the walking stick that was in his and in lifting him by the stick. The old man attempts to get up but then falls down again. I say "Are you alright old fellow?" The man says "Fine fine...." "Just help me up will ya!" I say "Sure then...." I grab the old man's hand and I lift slowly and carefully. The man gets to his feet and I push him up slowly. The man finally get back to walking and gives me a little wink like he is saying "Thank-You."
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.

(Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer: The item is a beautiful new fishing rod. I am very tempted to buy it but reach into my pocket and discover I have little money. The man says "I see you don't have much...." I say "I'm afraid so.." The merchant says "I could haggle a fair price if you'd like...." I say "How about 50 mina." The Merchant says "I'm afraid not. 75 and we'll make it a deal!" I say "What about 60 mina?" The Merchant says "You'd have to throw something a little extra to get the price." I say "I'll throw in these fish hooks!" (I show him the fish hooks.) The Merchant says "Aye! My wife is a collector of various knick-knacks.... She'll love this!" (I hand him the fish hooks and the 60 mina and he hands me the fishing rod.)

Full Name: Legirion
Current Age: 300 Elven years (comparative to around 20 human years)
Sub-race (if any): High Elf
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
The first thing he remembers was the rocking. Back, forth, back, forth..
"Haelun (mom), where are we going?" asked young Legirion.
"We are heading to a new world, I... I cannot talk right now child.." She says with a sniffle, wiping her eyes.
Legirion continues through the wooden enclosure, rocking back and forth.
"Father! Where are we?" he shouts to his father, confused now.
"Son, we are going to Elysium. Just stay in the cabin, we will be there soon."
Legirion was only 10 years old at the time, leaving behind is perfect life, and his loving large home, with a wood fire. Trading places with this boot-legged ship with nothing but a few port holes and one bathroom. Leaving behind Asulon, where his father was a wealthy blacksmith, who had a loving wife, and 6 young children. But as Asulon was approached with sorrow, and depression, Legirion's family fled to the new world of Elysium.
A few years later, his family was back on their feet, Passing here and there, and selling wood from the surrounding forest. Legirions father took up a job as a blacksmith assistant and was able to provide slightly for the family. Their mother continued her job as a political adviser and could bring a few extra Mina. But with 6 children to support, and Legirion now lonely 13 years old, the family was having extra trouble "surviving."
When Legirions father suddenly becomes the manager of his own Forge, he is given the title of Master BlackSmith, and the families life turns around. The Legirion family forms a guild of BlackSmiths, and becomes highly known throughout Elysium. They moved into a large manor, and had an extra house for the other children and their wife's, as most of Legirion's sibling were older than him.
Though his families life was great, It was shortlived. The Blacksmith guild was attacked by Rival guilds! Legirions father was beheaded on the roof of the Manor, and dropped onto the floor with a splat. His family was blackmailed, and betrayed, and hunted. Legirion fled for his life, living under bridges, and being anonymous.
But then he got his chance, flee to Kalos where he could start a forge of his own!
Legirion took the first ship he could to the new, New world of Kalos.. And that is were his story ends, and his new life Begins..
Ambitions for the Future: Legirion wishes to form a Guild or possibly a forge, just as his father, the blacksmith, had done.
Personality: Legirion is a calm, but unforgiving character. He does not often pick fights, but will not let others pick on him. He has a strong heart and a strong mind, although he is not the best with a sword.
Skills: As a High Elf, Legirion inherits a mediocre hand in archery. As his father often took him to his forest, he also developed a sense of surroundings and an ease at survival.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Legirion sports a forest green shirt, and has blond hair. He has green eyes and Has a pair of long Elfy looking ears.

1. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of High Elves are mocking a small Wood Elf child. How do you react?
Answer:
Legirion approach them discreetly and climbs a tree to observe what is going on; when suddenly one of the Hight Elves is about to hit the child!
I jump of the tree to land just between the child and the High Elven Attacker.
"Go back to were you come from! This child has done nothing to harm you!" shouts Legirion.
"Haha," laughs one High Elf. "And what are you going to do about it?!" he says as he pushes Legirion to the floor.
"You elves are nothing but a pack of stupid Orcs! Get out of here before I call the guards!" Shout Legirion with a cough.
The Leader of the High Elves walks towards Legirion, who is now getting up from the floor.
"Your going to do... What?" he whispers.
"I said Ill call the Guards! GUARDS!!" he yelps.
"YOUR CRAZY!" Shouts the Elf as he pushes Legirion back to the ground, and orders his group to leave before the guards come.
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:
Being of a good nature, Legirion does not try to take the money and run, but helps the Old man up and puts the coins back in the pouch.
"Are you alright sir? You seem to have fallen face first!" asks Legirion.
"O-oh.. Why yes. I-I am fine young lad." he says with a smile, patting Legirion on the head. "Do you think you could pass me my walkin' stick? I-I can't walk wit'out it."
"Of course," says Legirion as he picks up his walking stick. Just then, the Old man falls forwards.
"ooOOOHHHH" *THUD* The Old man falls to the ground once more, dropping the bag of coins, and the coins spill out, rolling around the floor.
As Legirion helps the old man up, a group of small children come and run off with a few coins.
"Hey Rascals!" cries out Legirion, "Those aren't Your-" his shouts cut off by the old mans words.
"Do not worry, young lad. They are ch-ildren.. I have no true use for them any h-how."
Legirion continues to help the old man to his walking stick and to sit down on a park bench. They begin to talk of the Old Mans life.
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 not very willing to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).
Answer:
"Hello, merchant, what are you selling?" asks Legirion peacefully.
"Oi, well I be sellin' Every'ting you need! Wha'dda Yah be lookin' fur?!" says the dwarfy Trader.
Legirion looks over his inventory and sees many things that can aid him in his Blacksmithy.
"Ill take your BlackSmith hammer, and an Iron mallet please!" explains Legirion.
"Ahah! Of'cuurse!" says the Dwarfy Trader. "That'll be Furty-Nein Minas Yeh scally!"
Legirion notices he is short around 20 mina, as he does not carry large sums of money with him.
"Well, I only have Thrity Mina with me.. Coul-" Legirion is cut off by the Trader.
"Oooh No. I do not want to be makin' any loans 'ere today. Just scoot away now!"
Legirion does not feel content in the Dwarfy Traders choice. "Ill take the Blacksmith Hammer, and Iron mallet for Thirty five mina, and ill-" cut off once again,
"I dont wunt'a make any trouble! But I need'da money too yah know?"
Legirion notices that the Traders cart is slightly broken at the base.
"I could help you fix your cart! And pay the thirty mina, that should pay off the cost!" explains Legirion.
The Dwarfy Trader thinks a bit, and Decides to let Legirion help with the cart.
"Alright, 'ere you go. Dont hurt yer'self OK?! Haha.. " he says as Legirion makes off with the blacksmith tools, after helping fix the cart. The thirty mina still gingling in his pocket.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?I wouldn't have to think.I would just try to give him some money depending on much I were to have.But, if he wasn't nice then I would only give him a little bit or none at all.I just don't want to be handing out money I have to make a living to.Also I wouldn't even buy anything I would just give him money.I just want people to be able to make a decent living and not be poor and starving to death. Because all i would have to do to get more money to open my shop since i want to be a shopkeeper is just save up and do things for people since i like to help people.
You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?I would walk up to them and see what the problem would be.If it looks like there will be violence then I would try to defend the dwarf if I had a weapon.If I didn't then I would try to find help right away if possible.If the Orc began to attack the dwarf then I would try to go in and break up the fight and risk injury to myself.If I were that dwarf then I would want someone to come help me.I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt.If i did die i would die a honorable man because i was trying to save someone.Also if the orc went and backed off i would guide the dwarf back to where he was going and make sure he got there safely.
Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:First I would make sure that he is ok. Second I would help him up and try to find something to help him walk.I would then pick up the money and put it back in the bag.Then I would give the man his money back.Even if he wants to give me money for my generosity I would not take the money.Then I would make sure that he gets to where he needs to go safely. I would have him hold on to my should while he tells me where he has to go to make sure he doesn't fall again.

____
[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 would pull out my bow and follow the figure, and if the figure does anything bad, like trying to kill someone, I would shoot him. If the figure just made his way toward an important place, I would follow him then call the guards, and if he ran then, I would shoot him, and if he stood still, the guards would capture him.
[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 always help others, so I would drive them away from the old man, even if it means risking my life. I would yell at them to get their attention, and shoot at them as they ran towards me, and if they got too close, I would run and take them as far away as I could from the old man, and try to lose them in the jungle.
[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: I help others, so I wouldn't rip the guy off, I'd pay him fairly. I'd also buy some stuff to help others with, like food, armor, potions, and weapons. I would tell him what I'd want to buy, then I'd pay him with a fair price and thank him for the items.
