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

Malvegil was born into a minor noble family of one of the Kingdoms of Man. His mother died in childbirth so his father was his only parent. From a young age, he proved to be exceptionally bright and well-suited to the intricacies of human politics. He became his father Thorion's chief advisor and administrator at the age of 12. As a child, Malvegil spent most of his time inside, as he was very shy and the other children mocked him for his mother's death; it was considered unlucky and a curse. Nonetheless, he led a happy life until tragedy struck when Thorion was killed while hunting. Whether it was accident or murder is unknown, but fould play is suspected for reasons that will soon become clear. However, Malvegil did not take his father's place, as was his birthright. The night after his father's demise, a man came in the night to kill him, that the lordship might pass to an ambitious relation rather than a boy. (Malvegil believes that the man was hired by the usurper, and has sworn to avenge his father's death.) Malvegil escaped, fortunately, and fled to the slums of the city to hide and take on a new identity. Thus, for 13 years he went by the name Alarios Denemer. He sought out a place where people such as himself were welcomed, and found the University of the city to be such a place. Here he learned the various races' languages and customs, so he is at home amongst dwarves, elves, or men. He also learned of the arts of war and leadership, which he would rightly have learned from his father; and he learned of the arcane, the study of magic and spirits and light and dark. After he spent several years working as an apprentice to the scholars, he departed with a small amount of gold; enough to travel the realm. This is exactly what he intends to do. He is a man of great ambition and is determined not to let the calamities which have befallen him stand in his way.

He is 27 years old, of average human stature, with fair hair and blue eyes. He very intelligent and able to do well in most fields, whether leading an army or running a business. Although physically fit and healthy, he prefers to study than to fight. Having said that, he is also a man of duty and knows that when the war drums are beaten people such as him must step forth to lead the banners.

Your characters ambitions:

Malvegil still grieves for the loss of his previous life, and has vowed to restore himself to his former position of influence. How he will do this he has not decided; however, the wealth and opportunity of Aegis consoles him that there is hope.

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?

Malvegil dislikes fighting and much prefers diplomacy. However, when an apparently innocent life is in danger, he knows that violence is necessary. He draws his sword and charges the bandits, fighting alongside the elf until both the marauders have fallen. He then helps the elf into the cottage and tends to his wounds before setting off again, having gained a friend.

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?

"Good morning, sirrah. I would like to see what you have to offer in the way of books." After a short period browsing but finding nothing of interest, Malvegil instead purchases a cask of fine wine (for this he has a weak spot) and leaves after thanking the proprietor.

Other Information:

Apologies for not getting things right the first time (and second time) round; I hope I've fixed everything.

I have also made edits to the bio, because my first post was accidental. Sorry.

Sorry but I cannot see your skin, you got 2 hours to fix this and to re-apply. Also this server is not linked to lord of the rings, got a different lore to read it and slightly edit your bio to fit our lore.
