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

Jonathan was born in a land far away,across the great ocean. There he lived a peacefull life. His parents had a big farm and everyday he helped them on it. But, on a snowy winter night his life turned. He was 17 now. He went hunting with his friends like every friday everning. They didnt catch anything, so they went to the towns tavern to drink an ale. When they got tired they went home.

Jonathan's family farm was pretty far from the town and around midnight he almost got there, but then he saw a orange shine in the distance, in the direction of his house. He ran as fast as he could and when he finaly got there, it was already too late, the house was on fire. He didnt see his parents outside so they still had to be in there. He ran to the door as fast as he could, just to find it locked. He looked trough the window and saw his parents and little brother, tied to chairs in the middle of the fire. He wanted to smash the windows to get in, but he fel down and screemed in pain. An arrows was sticking out of his ankle and he started to get dizzy, it was soaked in poison. The looked behind him and saw 3 persons, all wearing black clothes witt red glowing lines on them and a glowing red mask. The mask looked like a demon: sharp fangs, horns on the forehead. They looked at him and ran away. Then he passed out.

He woke up in a room with only a bed, a chair, a table and a small window. There was a man sitting on the chair, looking out of the window. The man asked him:" what do you remember?"

Jonathan:"nothing, only a glowing red mask".

The man told Jonathan that what he rememberd was the mask of one of the "Kahzad'har", "the red

ghosts". Not much was known about them, but they are evil, truely evil. The man didnt tell him about his family, but told him that he could teach Jonathan swordfighting, archery and the art of assassination, to stop the evil that the "Kahzad'har" do. And as said the man tought him how to fight and when he was ready, Jonathan left.

A few months later, when searching for info about "The Red Ghosts", a group of guards heard him talk to a merchant about the gang and arrested him. "Everyone is afraid of the "Kahzad'har" and still you seek them, the only explanation is that you want to join them. So you shall be executed" was the verdict.

He knew that if he didnt escape his prison, that he would be dead tomorrow, so he tried. Because of the training he got from the man, he was able to escape. The next day he found posters with his head on it, everywhere in the city. There was a pretty high bounty on his head, so the only thing he could do was leave the country.

He went to the harbour and bought himself a ticket to a random country. It didnt matter where, everywhere was better than here. The boat would leave at night, so he had time to buy new clothes and equipment.

Around midnight, when the boat was about to leave, he was looking around the harbour for a last time, when he saw it, a red glowing mask. It was on one of the other ships that was about to leave, he grabbed his stuff and ran to that boat, gave the ticket to the captain and sat down. He was sure "the red ghosts" were leaving for another country too, right on time.

The boat trip was calm, but long (almost a month). He's getting dreams about "that night" now and then, but he doesnt remember everything.

Now he has arrived in a harbour, his new life will start now, in the land of Aegis.

I'm sorry, but your application for Lord of the Craft has been...

DENIED

Notes for applicant: Your definitons of powergaming and metagaming are a) confusingly worded and B) incorrect. Also, what is the Great Ocean? Such a place/thing doesn't exist in Asulon, we also aren't in Aegis anymore, we're in Asulon. The Kad'hazar don't exist in-game (I don't believe), so your character will be difficult for you to roleplay as, considering his aims can't be reached... Please expand on yur characters ambitions, and also make the open-response questions detailed, and describe what would happen in-game. Finally, there is no attachment on your post.
