-Biography:

Sidreal, "Sid" to his friends, is the son of farmers. His parents dreamed of something better for him than that afforded to the poor peasant family and so they scrimped and saved and traded everything they could to try and get him something resembling and education. They enrolled him in the best school they could afford, a boarding house for tradesmen. Sid HATED it, there was no challenge there. His mind was sharp and, as one of his tutors noted, had traits similar to those of a deep water sponge. Given it was a trade school he had difficulty learning the one thing he truly wanted. To read. In the end he taught himself to read under the guise of religious study of the cloud temple. After that he devoured every book he could get his hands on with a special fondness for books on religion and philosophy. Life was sweet... then with little more than a pat on the head he was summarily ejected from the school. The funds had run out and his parents had passed away a few years prior and he found himself with minimal employable skills, beyond the basics of farming and refining, on the streets of Oren and so life taught him his first harsh lesson. That of self-reliance.

-Character Age:

23

-Character Appearance:

5'9" with the typically stocky farmers build. He usually dresses in simple peasant clothes with a generally well worn (read scruffy) appearance.

-Character Personality:

Sid seems a quiet sort at first... at least until he feel comfortable with someone. Then the formal patterns leave his speech and he will happily talk someones ear off if he gets the chance.

-Your ambitions:

While Sids "dream" is to have a farm like his parents his more immediate goal is to find some gainful employment and a place to stay where the muggers can't find him.

-Can your character read or write?:

Yes to both.

-Can your character mine?:

Hasn't done it but knows the theory.

-Are you a capable builder?:

Not particularly.

-Can you wield a sword?:

Can't wield a sword worth beans but Sid is a decent enough bowman.

-Enjoy Farming?:

Enjoy isn't the right word for it. But there is something satisfying about providing for many even if getting there is a dull process.

-Does your character have any special skills?:

While he does not realize it he has a good head for physics and engineering.

-Other Information:

I'm not a great builder but I have a decent head and knack for piston physics and redstone. I'm really looking forward to having some fun with everyone and looking forward to hearing about my whether I make the cut or not.
