Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):

My character is 14 elven years old. He has brown eyes which is rare. He has white hair and pointed ears. He wears a gray shirt and pants with brown gloves and brown shoes. He also always wears a quiver on his back.

Akkar was born in Serpent Ridge. His family was Mainly mining but never wanted to be far away from Laurelin. They lived there also because nearby was Ravenhold. Akkar inspires to Mine Jewels starting from an apprentice position to a Jeweler of royalty. He wants to, one day, start his own shop and sell his own things and be in a place of honor. Known by all the elves.

As a kid he went with other kids and went mining in search for little things hoping to find big. While mining as a kid is when he realized he wanted to make and craft items, as well as repairing them. He also practiced his archery skills in the woods to help him prepare for his later years to come.

Akkar is a stunning character with few but looking to improve to master many skills. He is always looking for items to craft into many things. He is friendly to everybody until he encounters his enemies. He enjoys challenges but can not conquer all. He is always searching for opportunities for ways to improve. He inspires to be the greatest of all archers and hopes to achieve that with much practice. His ambitions of archery and jewelry will drive him to many great deeds.

His weakness are some of many skills. He looks to improve on archery and crafting the most because of his ambitions. He also wants to improve swords fighting. Too help him sell diamond,gold,iron,etc. he also wants to improve blacksmithing so that he can make items and repair them.

Your characters ambitions:

 To be a miner and jeweler for all of Aegis but mostly the High Princess Indelwehn. He would also like to become an expert archer.

Also to open up a shop and sell and repair diamond,gold,iron,etc. items.

Out in the Wilds, your character comes across a small cottage. Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two bandits. What does your character do?

My character would go and help the elf defend itself and help defeat the bandits. Then he would give him food to eat to let him heal. Then ask if he needs anything else and give him directions.

 

Your character walks up to a shop in the middle of Al'Khazar. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer?

My Character would say,”I am just searching for supplies. I am going on a journey and need some things before I departure. I’m also searching for supplies to help me open up my shop.”

Other Information:

I look forward to joining this server and hope I get accepted.

Hmm... interesting interesting.

I believe you have a good enough app for me to accept you so here you go:

Here are some points I would like you to consider though:

As your character is 14 elven years (where 200 human years is an almost mature elf at probably 17/18 human years, 14 would be about 155 human years old) he is still not mature and would probably either be in mid to end puberty period. As such I am doubtful he would be able to have the same strength or skill as the other elves around you so you might want to consider changing your age. Otherwise I hope you do not mind role-playing as an elf who is a lot weaker than a lot of his bretheren in a physical as well as a mental sense.

Linking to the previous point I am doubtful a 14 year old would be able to set up a store all by himself. I guess it is Aegis where pretty much anything is possible, but it is unlikley. Perhaps a foster parent could be aranged who can help you?

All logcial things aside, this is your character and you may role-play him how you wish. I am just telling you these things because you might find some people complaining about your character and the unrealisticness of it all, but in the end it is your decision. As long as you don't break any server rules it's A-Okay ;)

Enjoy your time in Lord of the Craft!

Please be patient as it can take a GM up to a day or so to promote you in game. If you have any questions in the mean time, feel free to contact me on the forums! :)
