Character Name: Karanos

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.): From when he reached adulthood Karanos lived by sword as a mercenary. He wandered between cities looking always searching for work. Though not master of sword, he had a fair amount of abilities in creating fortifications. After years he managed to gather around him a small group of mercenaries that followed him. His life changed when wounded and on the edge of dying from battle wound he witnessed a vison. He saw a cave that stood in the middle of the great desert. Wind moved sand over the entrance and on top of it sat firebird calling him with a sharp cry. When Karanos woke up his wounds were healed. With haste he packed his things up and took his comrades on a pilgrimage across the world to look for a cave he saw in his vision. Many years passed on a travel until he finally reached his destination. Amidst the sands of desert Karanos and his companions found cavern, and he knew that this was his destination. Karanos entered cave and stayed for eleven days and nights. Upon that time some of his companions doubted and left, but two refused to abbondon their leader and remained waiting patiently amidst this lifeless land. When Karanos get out of the cave he was changed. He spoke of caverns that hid the spirit of long forgotten god, by the name of Exsul. When the High God created world, he placed on it his creation that breathed and lived, but they didnt had a freedom of choice for the High God feared what great damage would the Man do if he was left with choice between good and bad. When the creation ended God left to rest, and placed his most trusted servant to guard his creation. That was Exsul, who guarded world without relief. During that time Exsul looked into the hearts of High God creation and saw that these beings suffered, for they didnt had a choice though their souls longed for it. Exsul pitied these beings and decided to free them from these chains. He gathered all his powers and with rights bestoved on him from the High God, and spent every part of it to break the chains and free the beings from control. Great was High God fury for Exsul betrayal but when he returned he saw that his servant spent all his power on his gift to Man so that even High God couldnt chain minds of beings again. From anger High God took away Exsul immortality and exiled him on the desert. Soon mortal body of Exsul died from thirst and his spirit remained trapped on the desert forever. But when the life left him, the place crambled and the cave appeared from which started flowing water. Seeing that High God foresaw that one day Exsul will regain his power and once again he will be able to negate the Him. Fearing that High God sent one of his creation to take Exsul body from his spirit prison so that he will never be reborn. But the creature failed its mission for it was greedy and when it took the body of Exiled One it kept it for itself. That creature was the first Enderman and with the power it drained from Exsul body it grew powerful and spread its childrens across the world.

When Karanos finished the tale he spoke to his comrades that he was drawn to this cave by his destiny, which was to find every part of Exsul body so when the stars come right he could be revived. Karanos took an oath before the Cave of Exiled One and his companions joined him. And they created the Brotherhood of the Exile, with firebird who summoned them to this place as their crest. They swore to never rest until their Gods body will be retrived and placed back in His resting place. On top of the cave they build castle and named it Antrum Arx, and as a final step they entrusted Karanos with the title of the Highwarden, the master of the Brotherhood of the Exile.

-Karanos is brown haired and dark eyed man. He always wear coat with the crest of the Brotherhood. He is calm and understanding but also fanaticaly devoted to his god.

Your characters ambitions: To expand Brotherhood so that it can complete its only goal: gather all ender eyes and stones that give birth to endermans. These are parts of Exsul sacred body that were stolen and hidden by the fisrt enderman.

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? Draws sword and shouts: 'In the name of Exiled One! Drop thy weapons, yield and face the judgement of the Brotherhood!' I

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? "Greetings, noble merchant. I want to buy any ender eye that you have. The price doesnt matter."

Other Information: Fistly I will build the castle and village on the desert with two other players, they will be sending their application shortly aftyer mine[names are: sacrevarius and sheunha]. I dont want to offend creators of LoC by bending history of this world. Its the story that my character believes in, so it doesnt matter if its true or not(it depends on what You, the world creators, prefer).

-Your definition of role playing is not very complete. Please put some more effort into that.

-I am not entirely certain you know what metagaming is. Please define it in your own words.

-That definition of powergaming applies to video games, not role playing. Please try again and use your own words.

-Your character's biography is not the place to describe an alternate religion your character follows. It's meant to be a study of your character, not a story in itself. You are also out of lore when it comes to your biography. There are no firebirds in Asulon. I'm sorry to say this, but you're taking to much freedom. This is an established worldn and you need to treat it as such. This applies to your ambitions section as well.

-Your responses to the final two situational questions aren't very detailed. Try fleshing them out more by giving more detail to your character's actions and even the actions of other people so that you can respond to them.

-Grammar is an issue in your application. Please try running it through a word processor to catch some errors, and perhaps reread it to yourself aloud to make sure it makes sense to you. Break long walls of text into paragraphs.

-The entire application being blue is distracting. Please try to fix that for your next attempt.

Refrain from reapplying for twenty four hours.
