In-Character:

Character Name: Ada Angelina Rose

What Race are you? (You may only be Human, Orc, Elf or Dwarf!) : Elf

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): High Elf

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.): Ada Angelina Rose is the daughter of Destiny, and Casper Rose. Her name was chosen by her parents meaning Happy little angel, because of the joy she brought to them. A very rare event occurred in this family though, elven twins. Her brother’s name was Dennis named for his wild nature. She and her family were very very close especially with her brother. Destiny and Casper where owners of a large farming establishment. They would sometimes harvest, and plant as a hobby, also due to their elven love of nature. Ada and Dennis followed their example, but Dennis was more into combat. His sword was fast as lightning, and bow a rain of terror on all that opposed him. Ada could swing a sword and shoot an arrow but her true love lied in the fields and groves. She had an affinity with plants that no one else on the farm did and she knew it. She also knew that it was more than talent; she had a little magic in her directly linked to the plants she nurtured. Destiny and Casper had two prodigies on their hands, and much like Malin the father of the elves they couldn't have been happier.

But as is the way of the world all good things must come to an end. The rose family may have been well known, and prosperous, but that doesn't mean they were without enemies. Casper's father had been rash for an elf, and wild much like Dennis. He had made enemies with the Vrog family of orcs, they wanted the Roses out, and if they wouldn't leave the Vrogs were ready to kill. Casper knew what he had to do to protect his family, so he sent all his halfling employees to his friend's fields, and planned to flee to Asulon with his beloved family. They set out that night on, but a storm was rolling in. Destiny had hired the best sailor she could find but even the best seaman couldn't handle the boat in the rage of the sea. Soon they were pushed into the graves of the deep, a rock field only the best can cross in a waveless sea. No sooner had they entered the ship was wrecked on The Beak. Casper had thought Ada and Dennis how to swim as soon as they could walk, but Destiny never learned. The Children now clung to part of the mast. Casper fought the raging waves to reach his sinking love. He dived, and that was the last Ada and Dennis saw of their beloved parents.

The two elves drifted for days, and days hoping against hope they would find land. The salt water staining their platinum hair and brilliant green eyes a dark muddy brown. Against all odds they washed up on the shores of the wilds. They soon found water and some berries they rested about a week to regain strength enough to survive, for they were in dire shape after their ordeal. On the ninth night they set out. After 4 hours of walking they encountered bandits. Dennis had his sword he was wearing when the ship went down, and they had both fashioned rough bows, and arrows. Ada readied her bow unaware of her brother's intentions. No sooner had she leased her arrow Dennis was charging. She tried to cancel the shot was too late, her arrow struck the vary person she had been trying to protect in the back.

Dennis was mortally wounded, there was no saving him. Ada went to her brother, the last thing she had left, and said, tears streaming down her face "Dennis you'll be ok I know you will you will come on please you'll be fine." Dennis replied "no sister I won't you must go on go before the bandits reach you, you must leave me." crying harder than ever before Ada said "NO I won't leave you!" and the bandits were upon her. She ripped Dennis's sword from his now lifeless form, and swung wildly. Hacking at the bandits she wounded most but only killed two. Despair threatening to overcome her, she ran as fast as any elf had ever run, losing the bandits in the woods. When she was safe she dug a small grave placing the last she had of her brother, his sword, in it. Crying her eyes dry, she placed her bow and arrows on the fresh soil and vowed never to pick up another weapon ever again.

When Ada finally reached civilization she was sent to the elves. They took this unarmed, grief ridden girl in gave her food to eat, water to drink, and a place to rest her head. She spoke to no one, and did nothing, she remained in her room. But the elves noticed that their crops were thriving like never before, their harvests were larger, and fields at their lushest, no one knew why. Until one night an archer was on guard, and saw a small figure in the fields obviously elven. The next night the figure appeared again, she seemed to be working some sort of magic over the crops. On the third night the archer told the fields master what he had seen, and the master decided to camp out in the tool shed, and confront this figure. What he saw amazed him, this girl was going from plant to plant nurturing it in a way no elf he had ever seen do before. He approached the figure, but she didn't notice him until he cleared his throat. She froze. He said "ah miss you have quite a gift there." The girl turned around and he saw it was Ada the grief stricken girl he brought food to every day. He was startled to see her out of her room, and even more startled to hear her voice. “I like plants," she muttered sad as ever "and they like me."

The encounter seemed to snap Ada out of her trance, she joined the fields master in the day, and he started grooming her to be his successor. But soon he sensed she wasn't satisfied. So he let her go, she left the city and went to the country side in search of a place to call her own. She needed to be alone, away from others, she needed time to overcome her grief. All she needed was quiet, plants, and time. Maybe someday she will rejoin the elves and return to the fields that were her only light when she was lost in the dark.

Open-Response-Questions

Each and every question must be answered with a minimum of a single full paragraph and entirely in RP.

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? Ada is wandering along the road, searching for the seeds that only occur in the cloud forest outside the cloud temple. As she is walking, nose aimed at the ground, she hears voices one of which sounds like they are in trouble. ' Are those orcs bulling people again just because they are so good at weapons most definitely doesn't give them the right to be cruel to everyone else, oh back when I...' she forces that thought out of her head as if it were a grassworm trying to devour her crops. Ada proceeds to sneak trough the trees with the same feather-light step she uses for the youngest seedlings. Upon approach Ada realizes it is the orcs and that they have now cornered a small halfling. "...yu still nee'da give us da interest" one grunts. "But I need this to pay rent for my home." the halfling whimpers. "too bad we wan our money NOW!" the second orc said raising his voice on the last word. "bu..bu..but I can't" the halfling stutters. "ten we might nee'da take it ta 'ard way."

the first one sneers. At this Ada runs as fast as she could back to cloud temple. *pant pant* "There's a halfling" *pant pant* "in trouble" *pant pant* "those orcs in the woods" *pant* "just off the road past the docks" she says to the first guard she encounters upon reaching the temple. She runs back along the road indicating for the guards to follow her, she runs slower than she had on the way in order to let the guards keep up. when they arrive the orcs appear to be gone but they hear the crunching of heavy feet crashing through the underbrush. They follow in pursuit of the sound. When they over come the orcs the guards attempt to arrest them while the halfling continues running, seeing the guards had the situation under control Ada ran after the halfling to go calm him down.

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? "No thank you I am not in need of anything to day." Ada says seeing he is offering mostly weapons. "Are you sure, a Young lass like your self shouldn't wander without protection and I 'appen to see you havn't a weapon to your name, I've seen elves considerably younger dan yourself wieldin' swords." the merchant says. Ada fidgets with her braid and shifts her weight from foot to foot pondering how to respond to this. "No thank you I don't need any weapons" she finally mutters not wanting to seem weak.

The merchant rubs his chin puzzled by Ada, he hadn't met an elf yet who was without a weapon or in the market for one. "Are you absolutely sure, be a right shame you get into a squabble and can't get your self out" he said still wondering about the girl. Ada recognizing a persistent business man decides to try a negotiation trick she picked up from her dad "I said no thank you I can handle myself your a wonderful business man, but I don't require a weapon. Although I am in the market for a handful of pumpkin seeds they're terribly hard to come by and the village down the road from my settlement is having an absolutely frightful ender-man problem." "No miss I'm sorry I don't have any," the merchant said discouraged and even more puzzled for this girl clearly knew her way around the trade business. 'the firm flatter and flip always works Ada thinks with a pang of sadness because she learned it from her dad. Ada begins to walk away when the merchant says "are you positive I can't interest you in a bow i have some lovely ones here perfect for a lovely elven lass," making one last attempt at a sale. Ada freezes in her tracks, "A bow is the last thing I need," she says, the bitterness in her voice alerts the merchant he's said something he shouldn't have, but before he can apologize Ada rushes off into the crowd.

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?: ((I wrote this as if she was wandering through the woods before sent to the elves))

Hungry and lost in the wilds blinded by grief and guilt, Ada spies a small cottage, obviously abandoned. She stumbles in, her puffy eyes hindering her vision. Looking around Ada notices a small chest in the corner. She hobbles over to the chest and peeks in, hoping for some sort of preserved food or a map, but in the chest is neither. In the chest is a few iron ingots and a sword, but not just any sword. A golden sword, all to similar to Dennis's faverite sword. The sword she had too recently buried. "No" she sobbed. Ada slammed the chest as if it would go away, her tears renewed she ran off into the forest the sword fresh in her mind. And the pain of her grief as if the sword had been driven through her.

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?((again after the burring before the elves. Most likely after the sword in the chest thing.))

Hurting and tired, Ada trudged through the forest not noticing her surroundings. She stumbles by a camp not realizing it until she hears the voices of the traders. They saw her long before she saw them, they had watched her and saw she had no weapons. One decided to aproach her. "Greetings traveler we are but humble traders we ring wears from far and wide. Are you in need of anything?" one says. Not trusting her voice Ada simply shakes her head.Camper: hello miss can I help you

Ada shakes her head not trusting her voice. The trade realzes that she is no traveler, for her cloths are in taters, and she appeared starved. "Did you become lost many who enter these woods do not leave them," the trader asks. Still not trusting her voice Ada nods. Before he can ask another question another trader walks up behind him and wispers and whispers in his ear "Maybe we should send her to the cloud temple the monks will know how to help her." "No," the first trader replies "We should take her to her own kind." then he turns back to Ada "What elves do you reside with you have the skin and form of a high elf but your hair appears human, and you are obviously not half and half." "High." Ada croaks in response. The trader takes Ada by the hand and croons, for anyone can plainly see the grief in her face "Come on youngun will help you get there."

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?:

On her way to the in Ada was staying in a guard stops her and says "'scuse me miss the town guard is looking for civilians who have some experience with combat there are some bandits holding up just out side town we could use agile elves like your self on archery and surveillance." At this Ada's memory drags up everything she has been so desprate to forget; the bandits in the woods, her on archery, a team fight, her brother, how he died. Water pools in her eyes blurring her vision. "... I can't" she mutters her voice choked. The guard not looking at her face says "oh surly you can I haven't met an elf yet that can't shoot." Ada close to bursting into tears forces out a weak "... You don't understand." Still looking away the guard chortles "Sure I do your scared to embarrass your self don't worry..." Ada interrupts the guard "I won't I vowed never to take up arms again not after Dennis...." she trails off and tears well in her eyes. The guard finally realizes he's struck a cord that should be left untouched he doesn't know what to say to comfort the near crying elf. "I'm sorry....I'm sorry" Ada chokes out then rushes off batting back tears.

Anything else you would like to say?: my character is 100% passive even to mobs she won't take up arms for her life
