Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):

The cold green eyes of Valador Lenblade had seen greater days. Ever since Mando Lenblade murdered the family all those years ago, he has been in hiding with his grandmother, Eleanor Lenblade. His face was stained with tears, but in his heart he has the reserve and confidence of a warrior. His small, elfish looking face looks as if he has aged faster than usual. He wears the clothes of nobility, with the family coat of arms embroidered on his arms.

After running away from the Kingdom of Renatus with his grandmother, Valador went into hiding. He traveled to all four corners of Asulon hiding from hired assassins, mercenaries, and , fighting bandits on the road. As he traveled from town to town, the news of the Lenblade family had spread with him. He had gained many allies, yet made many enemies as well. He braved the windiest deserts, and traveled along the most dangerous roads. He has waded through the deepest swamps, and he has survived the cold wintery north. After hiding for 5 years, his grandmother finally died of old age.

Valador had no other surviving family members that would not kill him. So he decided to join a group of wanderers so he could use his skill, he joined a small group of protectors. The group had 6 members including Valador, Lirosh the Orc, Jeland and Kelvin the twin Dwarfs and Lirnil the Wood Elf. Lirosh was the leader of this band. They would travel through towns and cities looking for protection work, and were usually succesful. They escorted nobles, cargo's and one time a King. They lived a life of wealth and prosperity! Valador would usually tell his new friends of his life and about the Lenblade family and it's troubles. On one of the missions Lirosh was killed by a rogue Mori, the whole band was in disarray and didn't know what to do or who would become the new leader.

A few days later they had his funeral and only few attended everyone was mortified some men even cried. Later on in the day they had a meeting on who would become the new leader, Jeland had suggested himself but Kelvin disagreed and insisted he would be the new man in command, they fought for hours, so long that Lirnil left the meeting completely but Valador stayed. And he was the witness of an unlawful murder, Kelvin had gotten so mad he assaulted Jeland and wounded him so badly he died of loss of blood. Valador saw this and was enraged, Kelvin realising what he had done decided to rid of the only witness and tried to assault Valador, he used his skills to overpower Kelvin and knock him out, he then ran upstairs got his things and left, he went and travelled to the furthest corners of Asulon and set up a camp to live in.

One day he was approached by an elf, he realised form looking at it, it was Lirnil! He wondered why he was here and Lirnil said, "I know what happened that day, but that is not why I have found you, you see I remember you talking about your family, The Lenblade's, well I was travelling near the temple and I saw a man who looked somewhat similair to you, he told me his name was Borus Lenblade and that's when it hit me he could of been a relative of some sort. He told me that he lived past the Dwarven road so I came here looking for you!" Valador was amazed he immediately packed up and went to find his long lost family member!

Open-Response-Questions

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond?

My character responds to this violence and discrimination by waiting until the warriors are done, and if the warriors do not kill the Halfling, then I will help him get to wherever he is going safely.

Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response?

My character responds by saying “I am just passing by but I will buy that lovely sword ye have up there, how much is it?" The man replies "300 minas, take it or leave it" I reply "Hmm it seems pretty steep but I will take it!" Valador and the man exchange the minas and the sword and go their separate ways!

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:

My character would leave the small hut, knowing that even though it looks abandoned, it is probably home to someone that would not like their things stolen.

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond?

My character would talk to them in common tongue, and ask them for some food, and a place to stay. Since he has studied both types of languages, common and noble, he gets the food and

a tent for a place to stay.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?:

My character would join the town guard on their mission, to get more money, and to rid that road from bandits. Also, doing so would raise his popularity in the town, thus getting me closer to his goal about brining the Lenblade family back to power once again.

Other info: I will be rp'ing as racker2008's brother!
