What’s the rule you agree with the most?: "Your characters cannot interact with each other in any way. The one exception is that you may play the child of your character."

Character’s name: Caliburn Noresca
Character’s sex: Male
Character’s race: Elf (Half Wood Elf, High Elf.)
Character’s age: 67

Biography: Caliburn Noresca was a man born in 1550 who supported his parents in a small tavern that belonged to Ceru, after his father remained missing for an unusual length of time during a supply run his mother was stricken with grief upon receiving word he was leaving to pursue other ventures. With ailing heart she left Caliburn to run the business by himself as she sought the comfort of her mother and sisters to get over the heartbreak of her husband of nearly three centuries having left her. The man lived the rest of his years in solitude with very little contact from his broken mother until he met a travelling woman named Grace who (with a battle of persuasion) managed to convince Caliburn to join her upon her adventures. Over their many years of travels Caliburn found himself improving in his abilities with a hatchet due to the constant chopping of wood for fire and during defending himself and Grace against predators, his body becoming more masculine as he was no longer spending a majority of his time standing idly behind a counter, but protecting his wife and one day years later, a daughter whom he would provide for with the aid of Grace. In the duration of their travels it was a wonder Caliburn sustained no lasting injury or scar to blemish him, that is to say until the first winter after his wedding. Despite his Wife's urging for him to remove his ring just for the night, Caliburn remained adamant that it would be fine.. unfortunately for Caliburn he underestimated the weather, and lost his left ring finger to frostbite. Ever since losing his finger Caliburn has been unsurprisingly receptive of his wife's advice and guidance from that point on, dismissing his plans to visit the city of Sutica when the weather became nicer once Grace mentioned a creature known as a Luba. Caliburn did not bother asking what exactly a Luba was, or why he should be informed of it, He was far more concerned with the fact there was a lake he'd have to cross. It wouldn't be too long before Caliburn began hanging his ring from a lanyard, and not much longer before his child was born. Out of necessity rather than want, he and his wife eventually decided to cease their travels for a time to seek employment and better their living conditions for their daughter, now the trio stick to better populated areas working the occasional odd job in the hopes they can eventually save up enough money to resume their travels or pursue other endeavors. 

 

Personality: Caliburn can be described as a rather 'misbehaved' person, often maintaining a relaxed and comfortable demeanor in the presence of those he converses with regardless of subject. His true feelings towards the subject of conversation are often revealed more so through his words than through tone and excited inflections. He has, unusually enough, A mild smile on his face as a default expression. This smile rarely falters unless he intentionally frowns, generally when he is greatly offended or feels that it's inappropriate to do so. He refuses to raise his voice around children, or even fight in front of them under the belief that younglings shouldn't be subjected to the bitterness of an adult's life. To add further to his odd behavior in social interactions, he only seems comfortable when other people are around and he is speaking with them or working with them, otherwise he can grow anxious and paranoid and become overly vigilant of his peripherals. He doesn't enjoy sleeping in rooms where his bed isn't against a wall and will often cover his nape when panicked as if he believes someone is behind him. He tends to actively avoid morbid subjects, tending to either flat out ignore them or if possible, simply respond in such a way that further discussion becomes difficult.

 

Ambitions: He wants to be the owner of a successful Inn and Tavern, one larger and more appropriately maintained than the one in his family. It rarely received customers and was often considered to be in shambles, he's always fantasized about travelling around and selling fancier drinks and meeting interesting people on interesting trips. Whether this has always been his dream or whether it became an ambition as a result of his father's leaving is unclear, but he seems to have at the very least some positive feeling about creating the Tavern he describes. One such reason he has dreamed of building a Tavern is to provide a home for his wife and daughter, and perhaps gain a bit of local notoriety. 

Strengths/Talents: Caliburn has high stamina as a result of nearly thirty years of travel on foot with his wife and daughter across the continent of Cerus, his proficiency with a hatchet comes from defending his family from predators and harvesting wood for campfires and temporary shelters. He has a rather strong back, often being regarded as the 'pack mule' of the family.
Weaknesses/Inabilities: Caliburn is known for having prideful behavior, after his brief time in well-populated cities he had developed an envy of High Elves' superior looks and beautiful platinum hair as despite his heritage, he resembles a Wood Elf more strongly. He is a poor swimmer as a result of both being rather muscular, and unable to float well, the second reason being his fear of oceans or other large and still bodies of water such as lakes or big ponds.

Appearance: Caliburn is a six foot four male Wood Elf with tan skin, gray eyes and russet hair often combed in a prim manner. His build is brutish as a result of lugging around logs for fires, heavy packs full of their belongings and at times his child when she was too  tired or weak to walk on he own. Caliburn is missing his left ring finger because of frostbite that set in when he refused to take off his wedding ring during a particularly cold winter night under the belief it would be fine.

Honestly, most of your app is pretty well detailed! Good job friend! However, there are two things that you sadly need to fix to get approved. After you fix said things, your app is a sure fire way getting accepted. 

 

1) Your Backstory needs to be two paragraphs minimum

 

2) You need three references to the lore, you only have two at most.

 

I wish you the best of luck my friend! Don't give up!

Good news! With the fixes needed, your application was deemed Acceptable by the standards of Lord of the Craft. Although I recommend next time separating the paragraphs, your backstory was good enough quality for me to look over that. I hope you enjoy your time here in Axios, if you have any questions or need any help getting set up, I recommend joining the New Player Discord. https://discord.gg/C2ETUy9
