-Biography: I was born a half breed bastard in Serpent's Ridge, my mother always spoke highly of my father, even though i have never seen him. My father does not even seem to know i exist, i believed my mother's comfort lies as i was growing up, she kept saying he would come visit soon, that he had promised he would marry her one day. That day never came, and she started to worry at first but as i became older she started to grow angry, furious even, that the man she loved would just leave her and never see her again, she felt used.

She packed our bags and we began our quest to find him. She said he was a very intelligent and noble man, one who fight for the weak and the poor, one who above all else believes in the power of good and in respect for all. If he truly had respect and believed it so highly would he not have come? She told me he came to Serpent's Ridge while on vacation, that he was a guard for a city called Tris'Fal, an adventurer of sorts, more skilled with his tongue than with a weapon, an intellectual of sorts. She said he always spoke of how important the people of his village where and how he does everything he can to protect them, and actually was worried about them the whole time he was on vacation, such compassion is the reason my mother fell in love with him.

We made our way to Al'khazaar to find him, knowing that someone must have heard of him, being the human capitol. We rented a room in the slums, which was fine by me, i prefered the dark, the night, everyone in serpent's ridge would poke fun of me and belittle me being half human, saying it is a weak race of greed and treachory, i didnt want to believe that after all my mother told me of my father, but it became harder and harder to believe. One day we found out that my father was now a baron of a different city, we heard a few elves speaking in whisper in the back of Dawn's bakery about him and their backup plans to make Trouvo king should the worst happen to King Edmund with the recent threats and rebellions. I couldn't believe it how could anyone think my father to be such a great man that he should be king, but he cant even send a messenger to his son and my mom.

We tried to speak to the strangers but they ignored us like we did not even exist, which is probably why they were not more careful about what they spoke of. We tried to talk to people in town about where we could find Trouvo but no one knew of him, we searched outside of town not looking far, we saw no signs of Lunavara only one for Tris'fal. That night we talked about heading for tris'fal to see if we could find any information, when we heard a huge storm start over Al'khazaar, i didnt smell any rain clouds coming in, which was strange, i always can pick up on the little natural nuances.

A loud boom and crumbling of rock or stone followed, and we rushed to see what was going on to avoid getting hurt from any falling debris. Undead were attacking the city, i heard people screaming and shouting, it just felt so cold, people shouted that the queen was dead and that the king had begun to eat her. We went for a closer look, as lightning began to strike all around, panic ensued from the common folk, and us, i had never seen such evil before, i ran back toward an alley and waited for my mom, as she was running to me a bolt of lightning struck right in her path, turning her to dust.

Disgusting, i couldnt make out much more as i hid in an alley towards Dawn's Bakery i started shouting and crying out for my mom, i was now all alone, but after it was over there was shouting all over, everyone wanted to be the new king, sounded as if people were going to kill each other, which meant the king was dead. Perhaps my kin in serpent's ridge were right humans are weak, but that gives them no reason to kill one another. I do not know what to do now, but i think i need to find my father more than ever now...........

[Trouvo 205]

really? lol, denied for writing way more than needed because it was not in paragraph format? by someone who can not spell "put"

[Souvok 0]

please dont post negative posts on my app

i put it in paragraph format, do i still need to wait 2 days just for that?

[Repiteo 173]

Trouvo, I understand why you'd say that, and it was a small complaint, but a notable one. A format is a way of showing organization, so if the format isn't proper, it makes it look lazily edited, and unbearable to read. Other app team members may disagree, but that's my standards.

And as for your question, the answer is technically "no". However, I will permit it this time. Unfortunately, I'm not able to officially approve itbecause im on an iPhone, so once I get home, I'll be sure to approve it.

thank you very much Repiteo! i cant wait wait to get on the server

[Repiteo 173]

Oh, and something you should change before I get home. Your appearance section states that you have a scar on your left eye, but the skin proves otherwise. Either edit the skin or remove that aspect of the appearance section. A small thing, but it's enough to get you denied, sorry to say. But I'm sure it won't be a big deal for you!

PS: I may want to use your app as an example in my signature, how would you feel about that?

[Souvok 0]

sounds good to me, i i will edit the skin real quick, you can use mine for and example that would be great

[Souvok 0]

added the scar
