Richard Johns was one of the two sons of Kota and Beth Sicarius. They are from the
continent of Atlas. Richard always envied his brother. Due to his social status
in school and in the over all area. Though Richard always liked sitting at home and
playing pretend. He would always pretend to be a knight in shining armor. Being
able to save the princess. Though later, as time passed, he slowly became more
and more ani-social. But he was always a great person to talk to. His friends trusted
him with secrets, or even crushes. He would always enjoy being a part of the
smaller groups of his friends. He always did well when it came to school work.
Always liked a girl all throughout his school years, but never got to tell her
his feelings. Though he told his brother about this girl, and his brother Bentley
took that girl away from him. They were together for so many years. But Richard
was always forced to be nice to him younger brother. His parents on the other hand
were fairly average parents. Richard adored his mother. While his father, was
always beating him every time he did something wrong. Such as not washing the
dishes on time. His father Kota always favored his brother Bentley. Once these
boys became young men, their father came to them one day, and sat them down in
the living room. He spoke of these assassins that were ravaging the city.
Killing anyone who did them wrong. At this glace the young men were scared to
lose their lives to these assassins. Though something they did not know, was
that their own father was an assassin as well. These young men did not know their
fathers secret until the age of 20. At the age where the “brotherhood” of
assassins were able to recruit any individual who shared their same interests
or political standings. At First, their father forced them to join that
brotherhood. Richard never liked the idea, but Bentley joined without hesitation.
Richy tried to talk his brother into it. Though as cocky as his brother was, he
didn’t listen. It took Richard a year and a half later decided to join the ranks of this
brotherhood. Though later regretted his decision due to the amount of people he
saw hit the ground before any of innocent people could blink. There he was
trained to use a sword better than any guard could. Was there how he learned to
use the art of stealth to his advantage. In the process of training, he held
onto a ledge wrong, and feel on his side, breaking his left arm. While in this
brotherhood, he did not kill a single soul. But was very humble with the
information he had acquired from these assassins.
While Richard went home quickly
that night, said goodbye to his beloved mother. And left the next morning to
the docks. To see if he could catch a ship to the farthest continent away from where
Atlas was located. He couldn't find one that interested him. He got onto the ship unnoticed,
because he did not know to pay for the ticket. He wanted to leave all the money
to his mother later on. The ship eventually came to the continent and for 4
months, Richard was walking around this continent admiring the landforms and the
nearby kingdoms. Though he never entered any of them. He was also recently sending
birds to a Godric Leeunwolf about a House he was selling. Drake bought the
house via bird, and never heard of the Godric ever again. He finally arrived to

Forkwoods, went to the nearest tavern, and grabbed a beer. He officially started
his new life without his family or closest friends. It was time for a new
beginning. Until he realized the Assassin Order that wanted him dead had followed him to

Forkwoods. Then again it was time for him to flee. this time growing out his hair to its fullest. This is where he finally left 
to the Pridelands. A place he hoped a better life than the one he had started.

Roleplay Scenario: The traveller has just arrived in a small town. As they look around, their gaze is met with run down houses and shops. They duck into one of the shacks, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the small room, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town?" She begins, then pauses to study their face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a chair, “Where do you come from? What do you hope to make of yourself?”

"Oh, I just, uh…" The traveler stutters, tensing up. They eye the crone, then back outside the shack. For a moment, the air thickens with anticipation, until…

-Your character shares a name with Richard J Grayson, a character popular in DC Comic books. Not only that, but there seems to be numerous overlaps between your two characters (the assassin backstory, anti-social character, good with small daggers, etc). This has led me to believe that your character is not unique, and thus not allowed to play on the server. Please make a new biography, with an original character. Your biography does not need to be as long as it was, either,(great job, though). One or two paragraphs will suffice, but make sure you reference the canon LOTC lore, like you have in this biography.

-You can not mention that anyone close to you has killed the King of a nation or kingdom. This roleplay will have to be done in game. Please do not include this if you choose to apply again.

 

Otherwise, your application was rather well done. Both of  your definitions are correct. 

You will have 24 hours to make the above changes.

If you need any assistance, feel free to send me a message or join the new player discord: https://discord.gg/eySYjqw

Welcome to the server! Some things you should note is that Atlas is our current continent. If you wanted to access a land far away from Atlas, you'd run into an abandon continent. Currently, there is no way for player to do this in roleplay. It is not that big of an issue, so I won't bother denying you over it. 

I also noticed you copy and pasted an application you wrote for another server to use it here. This is okay, but the lands/information your character gained on the other server, will most likely not be valid here.

I hope you have a fun time on LOTC! I'd recommend joining the new player discord if you have any other questions. https://discord.gg/eySYjqw
