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.):

Sáralenn Alondessene was a well-known figure of beauty all of her youth, tall and slender, with long white-blonde hair, and electric blue

eyes. She has a kind heart, and is very adventurous, Although, being brought up by over-protective parents, she has a rebellious streak

and is not always honest. Her father is an Elvin Noble, so her family is very well known, wealthy, and high in society. As a young girl,

Sáralenn watched the other girls and boys play in the forest and climbing trees in envy. Her mother and father were very posh as well as

over-protective, so they would never dream of their daughter playing with dirty commoners. Her parents tried to find other daughters of

nobility for Sáralenn to befriend, but she found them too stuck up and self-obsessed, and did not get along with them. She longed to be

allowed to meet the other children of the town.

Sáralenn was still a young child when she started to become rebellious. Often, when she was supposed to be sewing or painting in her

room, she climbed out of her bedroom window and ran along the treetops, to explore the town from a birds-eye view. After doing this a

lot, Sáralenn became very acrobatic and agile. Sometimes she tried to befriend other children, but they all acted strange when she was

around, and treated her like she was much more important than they, which annoyed her. When Sáralenn noticed the other children learning

to fight, she immediately wanted to join them. She asked her parents about learning to defend herself, but her father Tharmaethor

despised weapons and war, and forbid Sáralenn from learning to fight. Furious, she secretly paid a local farmer named Authion Helyanwë,

who was well renowned for his skills with the bow and arrow, to take her on as an apprentice. When she began her training, Sáralenn was

only 12 years of age. On the day of her 5th lesson, she was shooting at her target out the back of Authion’s house, when she noticed

movement out of the corner of her eye. She whipped her bow around to the movement and prepared to fire. Suddenly she realised it was a

boy, a little older than her, poking his head above the fence. “Father, what are you… oh” the boy started, seeing Sáralenn. Authion

introduced his son Faeron to Sáralenn, and assured her that he would tell no one of her lessons. Faeron was not like the other boys and

girls; he never treated Sáralenn like she was more important, or acted strange. Over the years, He and Sáralenn became good friends.

Often he trained with her, and sometimes taught her a little, when Authion was unavailable. Sáralenn felt a little guilty about not

telling her parents of her friend, or her training, but she tried not to think about it.

As soon as Sáralenn turned 15, she was often not able to see Faeron and Authion as much as usual, as her parents took her travelling to

meet many nobles and wealthy young men often, hoping that she would find a husband. Even while she was away, she still practiced secretly

with a bow that Faeron had given her for her birthday. Sáralenn became very well known, and since she was very beautiful, many wealthy

men desired her hand. She tried her best to find faults in every man that asked after her, to use to persuade her parents that none of

them were suitable. She knew that unless she wanted to fail her parents, she must marry by the time she was 21, but marriage was not at

all in her interests at such a young age. When Sáralenn summed up the courage ask Faeron to visit her so he could meet her parents,

Faelda and Tharmaethor did not let him stay long, and it was clear that they disapproved of him. They had their sights set on a rich

nobleman for any male friend of their daughter, not a mere farmer’s son. Sáralenn began to meet more with Faeron as she grew up, and by

the time she was 19, it was clear that the two had fallen in love. Faeron had even begun to prepare to propose to Sáralenn, when the

unthinkable happened.

Now, Authion owned a very valuable plot of land, valuable because there were rumours of very precious ore below the surface, and a mining

industry wanted the land. The leader of the industry, Laothor, offered Authion a lot of money for the land, but he refused and told him

it was not for sale. Laothor, determined and greedy, was willing to do anything to get the land, but the farm had been in Authion’s

family for generations, and would never be for sale. Eventually Laothor got so desperate that he decided to take the land by force. He

ordered an assassin to kill both Authion and his son, so that he could claim it after the death of the two. Luckily Faeron learned of

this plot just in time, and he and his father, in a few hours during the night, packed up and left their home. Faeron left only a small

note for Sáralenn, explaining that he had to leave urgently, and he could not say where he was going, for fear that the assassin will

come after them. He wrote that he loved her and when he was able, would come back for her. Aggrieved by the news that her love had left,

Sáralenn spent many days weeping in her bedroom. She could tell that her parents were glad of Faeron’s leaving, and they told her that

she shouldn’t think of it, and should get on with her life. Finally Sáralenn could stand it no longer. She packed her things and escaped

during the night. She changed her name to Alasseah Sáralondë, for fear that she would be recognized as Sáralenn, and wore a disguise with

light armour. She knew that it was a dark world, and anything might happen. Alasseah searched for weeks for any evidence or information

about where Faeron had gone, but in vain, for she found precious little. Eventually she took a ship across to ocean, in hopes to go to

Cloud Temple, and seek the monks for advice. Alasseah vowed that she would find Faeron, one day, even if it took her a hundred years.

What is your Character's ambitions?: Aside from being re-united with her beloved Faeron, Alasseah wants to become a

great warrior, and fight alongside others in battles against evil.

What is your character’s favorite tool?(sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): The Bow

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? She swiftly chooses a hidden spot where she

can get a clear shot at the warriors, takes them out by pelting them with arrows, and without stopping to speak to the surprised

halfling, she continues on her way.

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? Afraid that the merchant might recognize her, she ignores him and swiftly passes by.

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?: First Alasseah checks to make sure there is no

possible owner of the hut around, if there is not, she takes the contents of the chest, and sells them in a nearby town.

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? Knowing that her parents deal with traders often, Alasseah disguises her voice, and pays the

traders for a small amount of money and food

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?: Wanting to test out her skills with the bow on real bandits, she offers her

support to the guard.

Denied

There are a few things that need to be addressed.

Firstly your definitions of Meta and Power gaming could use a little more depth. Use examples if you need to.

Now to your Character, while you have a rather touching a nicely written bio it doesn't quite fit in with elven culture. Actually I could work with High Elf culture with a little revision but on a whole elven culture doesn't have a status distinction between nobles and the 'peasants'.

Your Open Response Questions are too short. They are there to show us how your character would think, react and feel in these situations. Take your time in creating an in depth scenario showing us your skill as a roleplayer.
