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

Gunthorian was just like any normal child except he was born with only one hand in a barn with his mother and father. But unfortunately, merely 2 weeks after the child’s birth; his father (Orion) died due to natural causes.

In Orions will, all he left was a small coin purse and a note instructing one of his most trusted friends to surgically attach a hammer to Gunthorians handless arm and for him to leave the town for a distant land called Asulon where he should meet his father’s friend who he said was called Borak_Rocksmasher once he turned 18 and in the meantime should learn to use his hammer to smash forge and chisel his way through life. 6 years later, Gunthorian has learnt to use the hammer to its fullest potential in all circumstances that present themselves. Gunthorian , now at 24 years of age is 6”4ft of medium build has black hair and a small scar above his eye from when a bully hit him with a rock in his early child hood.

Ginthorian is also willing to try anything to earn a few minas he is currently traveling by ship to Asulon where Borak_Rocksmasher an old family friend is awaiting him. Back in his old home town, Gunthorian had been proclaimed the best blacksmith in the whole town and was taught by his farther how to craft the finest armor and weapons and was even contracted to make the counts armor set but declined as he had to leave for the shores of Asulon.

Your characters ambitions: To earn a living in the land of Asulon. To arrive in Asulon and meet Borak his friend then master the art of blacksmithing.

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?

Gunthorian looks over the situation attempting to get a grip on what’s happening. The elf is in obvious trouble as there are two of the bandits and only 1 elf. He moves from his hiding spot towards the struggle up ahead and shout “Back off, cowards” the bandits turn and Gunthorian quickly unsheathes his weapon the elf runs over to his side and within seconds the four men clash together in a flurry of swords. The fight is relatively even but after several minutes the elf finally subdues his target and moves to help Gunthorian with the advantage on their side they finally finish off the last of the targets they use their belts to tie the men up and head off to the nearest guard station to get help.

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?

“Gunthorian turns slowly looking over the man’s wares he sees the beef turning slowly on a spit and his stomach rumbles “how much for the fine cut of meat there” Gunthorian asks the shop keeper smiles “fine cut of beef that is I’ll give to you for 20 minas” Gunthorian reaches deep into his coin purse and finds the man his money and takes the steak “thank you sir” says Gunthorian with a full mouth.

Your application to LoTC is...

I would have denied you, but your character is so unique, I'm giving you a lucky chance. Fix these things:

• Your answer to the bandit scenario could be considered powergaming. Think, if this happened in the land of Asulon. Please answer this more like, "X attempts to help Y" or "X attempts to....".

• The link to your skin is broken. Fix it please.

Once you do these things, I will be glad to accept you. Unfortunately, if you can't fix these things in a hasty amount of time, I (or another A Team member) will have to deny you.

PM me or another A Team member once you are done.
