In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:

Meta-gaming is when someone takes something from OOC and applies it into IC. Like if someone tells the location of buried treasure that requires a map to legitimately find to a person over something like Steam or skype. Then that same person who now knows the information OOC goes and gets the treasure without his character ever knowing about it.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is:

When someone pulls a ludicrous move in RP. Like *deflects all arrows and makes them fly back toward the attackers which kills them instantly*. Or when someone does an action without allowing someone to react.

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.):

A tall elf with long spiky brown hair stands in front of a beautiful queen. She has a vibrant smile on her face. The light flows as if it was a river through the giant church window and illuminates her jewel encrusted dress. The elf kneels down onto his right knee, holding his head down. The queen raises the ceremonial sword above the elf’s right shoulder before bringing it down gently. The sun glistens in the sun’s glow. The queen raises the sword once again and gently rests it on the other shoulder. “Now, young Anitoro, you are now my knight-“

A loud crash awakens a child from his thoughts, “Dad?” He stands up from a corner in his leaky room. Rainfall pounds down on the roof causing loud splashing sounds. He takes a step forward, toward his door, but quickly scoots up against the wall when his father barges in. His elven father adorns a large grimace across his cinnamon toned face. The kid bites down on his lip to suppress a cry

The father belches loudly and wavers to the right nearly falling over. “Zalkif! Did you break one of our glass windows!" His father yells loudly at him before quickly grabbing his neck and lifting him off the ground. He gasps for air and tries prying his father’s hands off of his neck. “…Who DID THEN!?” his father yells directly into his face. Zalkif scampers around his mind for an answer and finds nothing to lie to his father. Water silently drops from the ceiling onto the mahogany floor. His father shoves him against the wall once again before letting go. Zalkif slides down the pale grey wall and onto the floor.

“I broke it… on accident- I was playing...” His father turns on his heels and stares down Zalkif in a drunken manner. His father bares his yellow teeth and walks slowly toward him. Fear fills the child’s eyes as he realized he should have been quiet. The footsteps echo throughout his mind. His vision begins to blur as he brings his knees toward his chest while tears pour down his cheeks.

Crimson liquid seeps through a small scruffy child’s leg wound as he runs in the rain. He’s running away from his family, his friends, his life. He’s running to start a new life somewhere else. Tears stream down his already moist face as he slows down on the outskirts of the village. He collapses into the muddy road, and he feels the full effect of countless beatings received from his father for unheard reasons. Maybe it was his father’s alcohol addiction? No, it can’t be that. It was always just him, just a weakling, just undeserving trash. The small boy curls up into a fetal position and whimpers, “It was all of my fault, I deserved being hurt…- so why am I running!?...”

His eyes widen as the wind seems to whisper into his ear, “Zalkif, you need to keep running. Or your father will kill you.” Long pointed ears twitch to the noise; it seems to come from every direction. The child, shivering uncontrollably, begins to sit up and wipes the mud off of the deep cut on his leg. “See? He wanted you to die...” He shakes his head; denying that. His vision blurs when he tries to get back onto his feet.

“Daddy loved me though! I- I… “Zalkif crosses his arms and hugs himself tightly. “... You’re right, whoever you are… I need to leave this place... and… start a new life? Yeah...yeah… yeah…” The shivering seems to halt as the kid wipes his eyes. His right eye appears to be a dull brown in color, while his other is a vibrant green. He sniffles before trudging back down the sloppy road at a snail’s pace.

His father didn’t always hurt him. It used to be a wonderful life, because of his mother’s love and kindness. After she passed away his father turned to alcohol to try and get over the depression. Too bad alcohol is also depressant. A while after the addiction had increased; his father started having extreme rage fits. His father’s anger fits intensity increased as time passed until the alcoholic actually started to physically take out anger on him. The time between of the fits kept on increasing until he finally left the village in search of refuge. A few days after he left his father committed suicide by killing the town’s head guard and being impaled by spears multiple times in the abdomen. The man died with a sad frown plastered on his cold face.

The child roamed around Asulon for next 22 elven years. During those times he became who he is now. At times he seems to be completely different to people he’s known. But, usually he acts normal. The ‘norm’ for him involves being quiet and being emotionally detached. He even might react completely opposite to a situation. Like, if someone is trying to make him laugh he might cry or if someone tries to kill him he would begin laughing. His hair is long and spiked on one side. A long stand runs down the middle of his face and barely covers his nearly neon green left eye while the other dull brown eye can be seen clearly. His skin looks as if someone took toast and cooked it to a nearly golden crunch, but not completely golden. He is also unusually tall; even for an Elf. He stands at the height of 6’11.

What is your Character's ambitions?:

Right now he is seeking out a connection to his past. He wants to know what happened to his family and why. Also he want's to hone in on his skills which have started to become lacking.

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

When he is acting normal he prefers his mahogany bow.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?

He doesn't actually have a 'most' skilled talent, he is proficient a bit of everything but not truly good at them.

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? Zalkif’s ears twitch to the noise of a squeaking halfing. “Huh?...” He quickly hides down on his knees near some large foliage when he spots the two heavily armed warriors. A small voice chirps behind Zalkif’s head, ‘Go ahead and kill them all and steal their money’ Zalkif grits his teeth, ignoring that small voice, and watches the two men throw the halfing on the ground. The two then presume to kick the poor little guy. Zalkif begins to laugh but shortly stops himself. One of the warriors looks over to where Zalkif would be hiding, “Who’s there?” Zalkif responds, “No one!” he then blinks, realizing he just gave away his location. He chuckles and stands up. Zaklif then pulls out his favorite mahogany bow, and draws out an arrow. The two armed men tense up. Zaklif releases the string, sending the arrow like lighting toward the two men. The arrow cuts a stand of hair off of the grey haired warrior. The man catches his flock of hair and looks back at Zalkif. He isn’t there.

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?

Zalkif looks around the booth admiring the goods. “Hmm… have any arrows?” The merchant nods and bends down, “You’re lucky, this is the last bundle I have.” He stands again and sets down 32 arrows wrapped with a rope on the counter. Zalkif hunches over to observe the quality of the arrows. He nods to himself, “How much Mr. Merchant guy?” The man narrows his eyes at the tall elf. Zalkif’s ears twitch in response to being stared at. The merchant speaks up, “How about… 57 minas?” It’s a little high. Zalkif nods and pulls out a bag of coins from his pocket. He takes 3 coins out and shoves the three minas back into his pocket before setting the bag on the counter. Zalkif taps his fingers on the stall’s counter waiting for the old man to count the minas. The merchant nods to the elf. Zalkif then picks up the bundle and trots off into the busy streets.

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?:

Zalkif stops in front of a two roomed hut which is overgrown with vines and lots of small ferns. He looks around, “Seems abandoned… hum.” He steps forward; using his right hand to move vines out of his way, and enters the first room. Zalkif mumbles to himself, “Nothing to see here but a bunch of mossy cobbled stone…” He then enters the next room which seems to be a storage room. He rummages through the many chests finding nothing but some string. He sighs before standing and shuts the cranky chests. Zalkif glances around the room and ends up laying his eyes on an old painting mounted on the nearby wall. His eyes narrow as he examines every detail of the painting. ‘Zalkif, check behind it. I’ve heard of people hiding like, vaults inside walls before.’ Zalkif’s ears twitch to the small voice echoing around his head. He shrugs and pulls the painting off; revealing a large chest just sitting in the carved out wall. “Oh.” He pokes the lock with his finger and the rusty mechanism just falls off. Right before he opens it he begins hearing loud footsteps coming from around the front of the hut. Zalkif’s eyes widen, “This place is abandoned though!” He glances with his eyes into the chest spotting a few iron bars and a flimsy gold sword. The footsteps seem to be getting louder. His greedy hands try to take one bar but he decides not getting stabbed is better. He jumps back dropping the iron bar onto the floor and darts out through a small opening in the roof by using vines on the wall. Nothing but the dark of the night is returning to the house.

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

Zalkif, hungry and tired, walks out of the forest he has been roaming around for the past day. Some crazy guy with flint and steal burnt his map, or that’s what he believes what happened, and he had no way to tell which way he was going. He looks up from dragging his feet on the open grassy hills and glances around. He tilts his head as he sees a small cluster of tents and decides he should investigate. When he arrives he is greeted by a few traders. “Hello sir, how may we help you?” One of the few traders standing near the tall elf asks. Zalkif rubs his stomach, “Got any food? I have some minas to spare…” The trader grins, “Course, come this way.” He motions for Zalkif to follow. The small group maneuvers through the cluster of tents toward the main traders’ hut; which has most of the goods. Outside the tent is an open fire which has a few cooking fish propped with sticks through their mouths and out their backs. “Just now caught these 4 large fish from the nearby river, I say around 7 minas and you can have em’ after they’re done cooking.” The trader who said that sits on a nearby log while the traders following them go into the main tent to do trader things. Zalkif nods, “Alrighty.” A few more minutes later he exchanges his money for the fish and heads off, forgetting that he should have bought another map.

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?:

Zalkif walks down the street and stops over hearing small conversation about bandits and a reward or something. “Was it the same bandits that beat me up when I passed out in the middle of that field?” He asks himself before walking up to the group of people. “Where are the guards at now?” The few people in a circle look at each other before one points toward the middle of the town. “Right, thanks…” He begins going over his items, “Only about 34 arrows left…ehh.” His eyes glance around the busy main square before finding the group of guards with a few volunteers armed with woodmen’s axes or pickaxes. Zalkif walks up the one guard asking people that walk by about the situation. The guard stops one civilian and begins asking him. “There is a reward!... gah-“ The same civilian walks off in a hurry. The guard turns to his right while rubbing his face and looks up to the tall elf, “Oh hello there .. er “ Zalkif scratches his own head, “ I’m Zalkif, and I heard about need for fighters.” The guard’s face brightens up, “Ah! Yeses’ and there is even a reward if we take them out.” A small voice chirps in Zalkif’s ears, ‘Course there is a reward if they kill the bandits, they would be dead if they failed.’ Zalkif chuckles to himself and the guard looks at the elf weirdly. “So you’re in?” the guard asks finally. Zalkif nods.
