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

Meta-gaming is when you do something OOC in the IC chat. E.g., you might say: gotta go guys, my dinners ready in IC chat instead of OOC chat.

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

When you do something like, well imagine you’re in this scenario.........

You’re attacked by several people so you say: (your name here) grabs a diamond encrusted minigun that happens to be in his pocket and destroys the world because there all noobs!!!!!

No. That’s power-emoting.

Power-emoting’s basically when you do something really unrealistic, or something that wouldn’t happen if this were real. You could like know something you shouldn’t, or magically dodge every attack aimed at you. These are all power-emoting.

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.):

Heodred was bought up by his parents (Anodred and Seodred) in Arethor, the capital of Oren, down to the south of Asulon. As he grew up he was quite quiet, he didn’t get into many social affairs and he turned mature earlier than most people though and wasn't afraid to say his opinion or take control. When he was 17, his father, tragically, was massacred by an orc raid while out hunting, leaving his poor mother a widow, and alone to look after him. She soon sadly died to, full of grief and sorrow. For her there was nothing left.

Heodred was taken and adopted by a politician of that time, Neforam Halgrim , who taught him everything he knew from the art of sword fighting, to the utmost details of politics and ways of earning money. Heodred also though, had a passion to write, which he taught himself. When he was old enough (21), Neforam sent him out into the streets to earn money. He read poems out and earned quite a few minas. He soon became well known and people started to respect him.

His happy days weren’t forever though. Neforam was driven to madness by drinking, resulting in him trying to kill Heodred in his sleep. Heodred had no choice but to kill him. His world crumbled away. There was nothing left. An unfortunate event curdling a once happy life. Heodred found there was nothing for him here so he left to fend for himself in the wild......

(He's 23 at this point).

What is your Character’s ambition?:

To become one of the greatest Human writers of all time.

What is your character’s favourite tool? (Sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc):

Neforam taught him how to sword fight and because of the incidents in his life Heodred believes that a man is not a man without his sword.

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

Writing, he loves it. He writes all the time, poems or even entire books. It’s what really makes him.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format):

Look, there’s a problem with my pc which means I can't do this so it’s my avatar and I’ll try and make it an attachment.

Other Information about your Character:

He loves writing.

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?

Heodred makes no sound. He sneaks behind a wooden carcass of a tree, the bark scratching his face, causing edges of pain. Without warning he leaps out, surprising the warriors unsheathing his sword. He speaks, his voice cold and hard, like its seen a thousand deaths: "Do you not realize, that we are protected? Fight like a man! Show yourself. I do not want to kill, but I will if I have to." The warriors laugh, showing no sign of fear or remorse. They step forward, ugly grins infect their faces, shattering any sign of beauty or redemption. One of them strikes, narrowly missing Heodred's arm, scraping off the skin on his shoulder, he winces with pain and takes a step back. He then lashes, locking himself and one of them in close combat. Face to face. To the death. The other one joins in, pushing him to the ground. He pretends to admit defeat, letting them do their final strike. But just when they relax, he lurches knocking one backwards against a tree. The warrior gets up to see Heodred slaughter the other. Heodred says: " Go! Go and never return! I will leave you unharmed. Now go!" The warrior runs off, admitting utter defeat. Heodred helps the halfling up. He says: " If anything, anything ever happens to you again, then tell us. This place must be rid of evil. Watch yourself. War is the provence of Men, not Halflings."

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?

Heodred walks along the path, the crowd are rowdy, bustling over some pointless game. A shopkeeper turns to him, he says in a posh accent: " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?"

"Nothing for me thanks" Heodred says. But wait... something catches his eye....

"What is this?" he says, interested now.

"Oh just something I found a long time ago..."

"Really? Where were you, this looks familiar... Infact it looks like good ol' Neforam's hat!"

"Well I swear... I swear I didn't find it in a house..." The shopkeeper looks nervous now, as if he's trying to hide something.

It is, Heodred thinks, it has to be. "You thief! You took this!" Heodred shouts. "Ok, ok I admit it! I have done wrong!" the shop keepers gone pale, staring at Heodred’s sword at his throat. "I demand you to give back everything you've stolen" Heodred says quietly, "Or you'll pay."

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?:

Heodred looks around, "there’s no sign of anyone here..." he says out loud, "surely it won't be missed..." He takes the sword, it gleams in the sun, glaring at him to take it. "Oh go on then," he says "No one lives here". Heodred flinches as he takes it. There’s some force in his body that’s stopping him. He grabs it and leaves the hut. He turns back. "I can't" he says. He returns it and walks off.

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?

"Please, I beg you, give me some food...." Heodred says pitifully.

"Well what do we have here?" the man says in a mocking voice, "A beggar? Or maybe not...." He examines Heodred. "You've got noble blood you have. Hey everyone, we've got a noble here!"

"Who I am is not your concern" Heodred replies calmly.

"Oh it is, Nobles sell for a lot. What do ya reckon guys, shall I hold him for ransom?" Heodred notices something. "You’re not just any traders, you're slave traders!" He says.

"To right we are," says the man, "and you’re coming with me".

Heodred took some time to examine the cap as he was taken off to the slave chambers. When he got there, he saw a load of worried people there. Is it him, or does one look familiar? "Kiadran!" he exclaims, "What the hell are you doing down here?"

"Well if it isn't good ol' Heodred!" Kiadran replies merrily.

"I haven't seen you in years!"

"I know, do you have any idea how to get out of here?"

"Infact I have been thinking..." Heodred looked up to the sky.

"I'm not going up there.." Kiadran says, now slightly worried.

"I'll drag you then. Pass me that rope" Heodred ties his sword onto the end of the rope and throws it to the top wall of the open-topped tower there in. The blade cuts into the rock and he uses it to haul himself up. Kiadran follows as they climb up the wall, unseen to the naked eye. When there at the top Heodred says: "We'll have to jump, come on"

"You’re mad, bloody mad...." Kiadran says as they jump. They land in the icy waters of the lake Escaroth nearby. The chill is insane and they use all their might to swim to the surface. Free at last, they run as far as they can, away from this hell.

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?

Heodred knew this was coming, but now, all he can do is join in the fight. He signs up in a shot and is ready on the day they start to drive them away. Their tactics are simple, ambush. They take their positions, behind anything they can find. Trees, rocks or even the thinnest log, anything would do. They wait for the signal, the arm comes down, the slaughter begins.

They leap. A wave of unknowing anger and useless tide. No one considers that they might fail, getting massacred by the bandits. Heodred knows this though, even though it doesn't stop his lust for blood. He runs with his sword in the air, a chilling blade designed to kill. The mighty roar appeals, the sound curdling every man’s blood. Even those who have no weapons fight, biting, scratching, any form of attack. It doesn't matter as long as they see the sight of blood. The blood is not the enemy’s though....... It is their own. Though they carry on. A few realize what’s happening, they flee instantly. Only the most skilled are left. Heodred doesn't hesitate to kill, his sword driving through enemy flesh. He carries on until there all dead. There remains only 5. There all wounded or in pain. It wasn't success or failure.
