In-Character Info
Character’s name: Han Shotfirst

Character’s sex: Male

Character’s race: Human
Character’s age: 26

Biography:

Han Shotfirst was born to a poor family in the city of Johannesburg, and was raised there until he was about six.  It was then that his parents, desperate for money to help raise Han’s two younger sibling, were forced to sell him into servitude as an indentured servant.  

They sold him to a dwarf who went by the name of Thanedar Malacov, who was known for his work in Dwarven engineering and tinkering.  In Urguan, he taught Han how to build gadgets and gizmos of all kinds.  The talents and skills he picked up during his stay in (the next ten years of his life) were undoubtedly beneficial...with a few exceptions.  During his time with the dwarves Urguan, Han was exposed to their stubbornly sturdy fighting spirit.  This, combined with his inexperienced hot head, lead to several instances where he had to be pulled out of trouble by Thanedar, though not before he had gotten a few swings in.

At age sixteen, he was freed from indentured servitude, and he decided to go back to Johannesburg in search of his family.  He returned to Johannesburg in search of any trace of the Shotfirsts, but to no avail.  So he returned to  to work for Thanedar, venturing out every so often to see what the world has to offer.

Now, after ten more years, Han, in search of a new home and some kind of work, decides to try his luck in Johannesburg and possibly venture into Lorraine.

Strengths/Talents:

While fast on his feet, he faster with his hands.  He’s dependable in a brawl and a decent shot with a bow. Han also has serious skills as a craftsman, even for his age.  He aspires to be a master Tinker, or at the least, a master craftsman of some sort.

Weaknesses/Inabilities:

Han is kind of hot headed, which has gotten him in trouble more than once.  He is also slightly naive, and has a cut-throat streak in him; willing to do some underhanded things if it means he’ll come out on top.

Appearance:

Brown Hair and greenish-grey eyes, he is dressed in a white shirt and worn leather pants.  He also wears a worn navy-blue vest he found lying in the street.

Skin: Provided

Greetings, applicant;

Your application has been Denied for the following reasons:

 

• Biography is one of the most important parts of your application, as it gives the Application Team a chance to get to know your character! We would like to learn about what they went through, how they viewed events that happened to them, what changed their views on things, et cetera. Your biography is vague and short. Please write at least two lengthy paragraphs of well written biography;
• Your character's aspirations and weaknesses are vague and one-dimensioned. The Application Team encourages applicants to develop their character in more than one way, also beyond physicality. A few examples would be: having a short-temper, being patient, being cold-blooded et cetera;
• Greedo shot first;
• The 'personality traits' part of your application is supposed to project how your character behaves. Yours is pretty much missing. Please use the proper application format, and do not remove parts of it;
• Even though I appreciate the Star Wars reference myself, in your name. I do not think it is suitable for the server. Please choose a more formal and appropriate name;
• Your definition of metagaming is  incorrect. You may learn more about the definitions from the link below. However, DO NOT copy and paste the definitions as the Application Team would love to hear them from your own words. 

 You may re-apply after waiting for 24 hours.

 

Please do not hesitate to contact me via Forum PMs for any questions or concerns you have regarding the application procedure. Good luck!
