Your RP definition is very weak and needs expanding

Your powergaming definition is incorrect

Your bio is way too short and does not include the destruction of aegis, and subsequent escape to asulon, or the destruction of Alras, your bio also needs personality, quirks, flaws, fears etc

Your ORQs should also be in full RP with details and dialogue

you may reapply in 24 hours and download firefox instead of internet explorer
