Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:I'm confident that my literary skills are enough to satiate your expectations.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: Two to three sentences aren't enough to describe that of which is the human race. Strange creatures best resembling pig-monkeys with the ability to use tools more dexteriously and intelligently than primeapes. I'll be nice to you, if you're nice to me.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Depending on my work hours, a few hours a day.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: My last name was Roleplaying. My father's last name was Roleplaying. My father's fathers last name was Roleplaying. My grandfather's fathers last name was actually Ragnal, but after this incident at a forest that scarred him greatly. So he had to change his name to something unorthodox to hide his true identity.

^ I wrote this earlier but it got denied. The reviewer probably didn't get the hint that I playing in character.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. Metagaming: IC-OOC knowledge crossover. Like a psychic power applied to your character's instincts. E.G You hear OOC that your teammates are going to turn on you... so you kill them first. Powerplaying. OP - Over-Powered. Godlike powers applied to your character. E.G Probably best explained in MC by attacking someone without RPing much, or using actual hacks. Both of which are frowned upon in any RP community.

What do you expect this server will be like?: It's been good so far, I met some nice guards, and some angry citizens. And then Osulon was all like "Yo I exist." So I tried to join but couldn't without making this here bio.

Character Name: Matteo De’Leon

What is your Race?: Human

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): It's funny how the customs of a culture can backfire on its own hierarchy, and the only way for it to maintain face, was to cut off a strong limb. Such as the dire cayote, stuck in a hunter's trap. Matteo is the severed leg of a once noble household.

The de'Leon family is a nobility built off the fertile work of peasants, and manipulated by the royal. But being royalty has nothing to do with blood, or actually being a noble, it is a game of faces. Reputation means everything, especially in the business world where this family made its name. The de'Leon family did anything to maintain a strong social status, even if it required that a bastard heir be erased completely. This is where Matteo's life comes in to play. Son of a noble woman from the De'Leon lineage, whose heart was easily manipulated by a young druid of no renown surname. Now we all know that druids are difficult to domesticate ~ eventually this noble woman found herself with a child many months later, and no husband to teach the boy. A scar formed on the face of this family, to which a deceitful makeup would be applied to remedy its sight.

Outcasted was the child, Matteo, as ordered by his own grandmother and head of the family, Lady Delorith. Yet not even the customs and regulations of a nation could compare to a mother's love. To save the boy from his ill fate, the noblewoman Martel hid him from her noble overseers. He would become the one of his bloodline not blessed with a pampered life of money, gravy, and showcased women. Perhaps a blessing unto itself. Living on the farms outside the city allowed Matteo to grow more freely. He became strong, helpful, and more aware of the unfair laws that mankind created to enslave itself.

Today, Matteo stands a man, tall and proud of his humble beginnings. Yet never made aware of the truth behind his noble origins. He learned that not only he, but the entire culture of men around him were build upon broken nails and masks. The hierarchy constantly feeds off of the lifeblood of its people without providing them the protection they promised; it was a mafia more than a divine blessing. The farmlands that Matteo was thought to be born in to soon succumbed to the will of the wilds. Bandits and marauders from foreign lands planned their move days in advance.

As the country’s army had recently taxed the farms of its resources and men, only a day passed before the foreign legion decided to attack the humble farm - burning what was left of it to the ground, and slaughtering many of the unarmed citizens. There are few feelings worse than helplessness. Fleeing was Matteo’s only option during that midnight raid. Saving only who he could, the ones who had sheltered him for so long. In to the dark woods they fled. Hiding for several days before actually coming across another town under the same ‘safe’ banner. This is where the young man’s social life changed. Though his family wished to make new settlement in the city, a druidic blood estranged to them still coursed through Matteo’s veins. It was time for this fledgling bird to leave the nest.

From that day on, Matteo has offered his services to the peasants and poor. Odd jobs and quests in exchange for food, shelter, and whatever other methods of trade that the humble would offer.

Your characters ambitions: Matteo’s main goal is to change the laws of man from its very core. He knows he cannot do this alone in one fortnight. But with war looming over the world, the different cultures of mankind were doing themselves no good by killing each other. Perhaps his dedication to a better world will one day prevail.

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? Though vengeance is not good to succumb to, Matteo does feel it for those who stoop to banditry and thievery. Without a doubt, this Elf would find a friend and ally in the most convenient of times.

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? “Perhaps the opposite, sir.” Matteo would suddenly lead on. “Maybe I can help you, instead? Your stock is becoming empty on certain shelves, perhaps we can make a deal of some sort that would benefit us both?” The young Matteo would then proceed to haggle with the store owner, or hint towards the proposal of a quest.
