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

Age: 22

Appearance: Not much of his face is seen, only his eyes which are dark blue. The rest is covered in a hood and a bandana.

Personality: Quiet, doesn’t talk much. But he can get really angry on people that raid or attack weak people, because they can’t fight back. He can also be very kind to people that he likes, but he’s defensive by nature.

History: Jonathan was born in a land far away. There he lived a peaceful 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 evening. They didn’t catch anything, so they went to the town’s 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 an orange shine in the distance, in the direction of his house. He ran as fast as he could and when he finally got there, it was already too late, the house was on fire. While he was running towards, it collapsed. He fell on his knees realizing that it was too late.

A few hours later people of the village came, they stopped the fire and buried the burned bodies of Jonathans parents. He went to live with his grandparents until he was old enough to live alone. Two years later, when he was 19, he left them and bought a little house in a big city. There he became a blacksmiths apprentice. The blacksmith taught him to craft weapons, tools and armor. There he lived for almost 3 years.

Jonathan went on with his life as a blacksmiths apprentice, but one day something happened that changed his life. The smith was out of town for a few days, paying an old friend a visit, when a man walked into the blacksmith. Jonathan was all alone and asked the man what he wanted. The man took a knife from under his shirt and ordered Jonathan to give him all his money and the money of the shop. Jonathan didn’t know what to do so he went to the basement where they keep the money, the man followed him and Jonathan saw a freshly crafted sword on one of the tables. He took it and stabbed the man trough the chest.

A man on the street heard the scream of the man, ran into the blacksmiths basement and as soon as he saw Jonathan with the blooded sword and the dead man, he ran into the street and called for guards. A few minutes later there were guards in the basement and arrested him.

He knew that if he didn’t escape his prison, that he would be dead tomorrow, so he tried. After some time trying, 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.

He went to buy new clothes and equipment. He bought himself some robes with a hood and a bandana to hide his mouth. Now nobody would recognize him.

And then the destruction of Aegis came, which Jonathan survived.

And now his story continues, in the land of Asulon…

Your characters ambitions:

Start a new life in this land, get a job and later a family.

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?

Jonathan ready's his sword and shouts: “Two against one, seems pretty unfair to me".

The bandits turn to me and attack. Jonathan tries to kill them both at a time.

If he would succeed in killing them he would recommend the elf to buy weapons to protect himself and then continue his journey.

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

-I completely love your app and think it was greatly thought out, but I am finding a problem throughout your app.

-It seems like your character is completely invincible, like he can escape anything and kill everyone, which fits the definition of power-gaming.

-If you were to fix this I am confident that you will be accepted in your next app.

If you are still unsure of why you were denied, send me a pm and I

Will gladly explain.

If I am not on, go to the teamspeak channel "Application Team chat"
