What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.:

Roleplaying is becoming a character in a story, and acting on their believes and desires. It means collaborationg with others to create a cool story. It means staying in character if possible, and not metagaming or powergaming. Typical actions in roleplaying are conversing with other characters and exploring. When roleplaying, you must always act the way your character would, wheter or not it is better for them mechanistically to act otherwise.

Metagaming is the use of out of game knowledge in game, such as knowing that since you were told to roll for trapfinding, there must be a trap, and therefore you avoid the hallway. Powergaming is making your character ridiculously powerful in one or two areas through the use of typically obscure or shady tricks, typically at the expense of other areas. It could also mean, in the term of Godmoding, a synonym to powergaming, it means making a statement such as: "I stab you and you die." This does not give your opponent a chance to respond. You can only do that if they are, like, tied up and unconcious.

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

Oseric grew up during the war on the undead. His father was an obscure knight who left for the war when Oseric was 5. He never saw him again. Oseric was raised alone by his mother in a small northern village. She instilled into him the importance of honor and loyalty, of defending the weak and upholding the law.

Soon they had to flee the north, and went to a camp outside the a southern city. Their new life was a hard one, and showed Oseric the value of hard work. He made few friends, for fear of btreayl. He trained hard in his free time to become a knight like his father.

When Oseric was 16, he recieved a letter informing him of his father's death. He had been killed by his own men as they were tried to flee the camp and join the undead host. His father had attempted to stop them. He failed.

On this day Oseric swore an oath. An oath to defend the defenseless, protect those who none else would protect, to uphold the law unchangingly, to keep clean his honor, and to never, ever, compromise.

He sought a master, and found a grizzled old retired knight. Together they trained day and knight. From him Oseric learned the value of friendship. They grew close, and the knight, Sir Frederick, became as a second father to him. He stayed with his master for several years, until he died of old age. At this point he decided that he must at some point follow his master's footsteps and teach others. He began wandering the realm in search of a worthy cause. He did not have the time. Iblees arrived. The continent fell.

After the undead invasion and the fall of Aegis, Oseric joined in the migration to Asulon. There, he has wandered the lands, offering his sword to those whose causes are true and just.

Your characters ambitions:

I must join or form a society of like minded individuals. I must seek out corruption, there is no good but justice, and those who bend the rules or just as bad as those who break them. My honor is my life, I shall not stain. Those who attempt to deserve death

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?

I attack the foul scum. If I succeed, I slay them coldly. They will beg for mercy but they will not recieve it. The wicked must be punished. I will then introduce myself and ask if the elf needs any further assistance.

If I fail, I will attempt to protect a route for the elf to retreat, and I will follow if things begin to look grim.

If this is not an option, I will die nobly in battle.

If there is a choice between my survival and the elf's, the elf lives.

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?

I plunk gold on the counter. "Repairs" I gesture to my armor. I pay him the exact market price. There will be no haggling or shady dealing. If he attempts to cheat me, I take my business elsewhere. If I later discover he has cheated me, I will attempt to make him pay.
