Character Name:Kael'Thes Goldenheart

Character Race:Elven-High Elven

Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:As a young child, Kael'Thes grew up with his parents in the glorious city of Haelunor. His father took up the art of mercantilism, and his mother lived a life of magic. As his mother wrote tomes of magic and his father sold useful wares for the average citizen, Kael”Thes grew up a very privileged life. He had everything a young High Elf would need. The finest clothing and jewelry of all the other young elves in Haelunor. His life was as golden as his name, until he lost it all one fateful day.

As Kael (His nickname his friends and family refer to him as) was walking home from his day at the college, he heard the sounds of screaming citizens. He charged down the sidewalk, almost tripping over his own feet as he ran to the cries of terror. What he saw was his worst nightmare. Multiple Orcish had sailed to Haelunor, and were readying their cannons. As Kael pulled out his spyglass from his satchel to get a clearer look, he immediately dropped it as he fell to the floor. The cannons had fired upon the walls of the city. Orcs stormed the streets and slaughtered men and women as they came. Kael had trained in the art of magic and swordsmanship, but was incapable of defending himself, as he was paralyzed with fear. Kael heard a loud noise, and all went black. As he awoke, he was barricaded in a room of the college. He managed to look around the door, to see a last stand against the Orcs at the college door. The Orcs broke through, and Kael was rushed through a secret exit in the wall, leading to the docks. Kael sailed away with one thought in mind. Redemption. He was incapable of helping his race in the Purge of Haelunor (as the attack is now know), but perhaps he can find redemption for his acts in Haelunor, in Asulon. He know serves in the Sentinels of Alron, training every day for a chance to redeem his shame. One day, that chance will come. No matter the enmy, he will honor his race, even if it takes his life.

What are your characters ambitions?:To fight for not only the High Elves, but for all Elves of Aegis and honor his race.

Open-Response-Questions

Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?As I walked the streets, grinning at the silly bustling humans, I spot a lowly dwarf, looking rather down. I notice his stand has all its wares, and he must not be selling well. Humoring the creature, I walk to the stand and order a loaf of bread. As he hands me the bread I pay him a generous tip of minas. He smiles as I walk away laughing, amazed at myself that I have helped a lowly dwarf.

You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? As I walk the dark road, I stumble upon a quarrel between a Dwarf and an Orc. Disgusting races. Although I despise both races, Dwarves did not ruin my home long ago. I walk slowly to the arguing heathens, and assist the Dwarf in his argument. The Orc bursts into a fit of rage and strikes the Dwarf in his robust face. Out of reaction, I use the training from the college I attended, and quickly trip the Orc while striking his head. The Orc passes out, as the Dwarf stands to his feet and offers me a reward for my act. He pays me a small amount of Minas and I continue on my way.

Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenseless man. What does your character do?: As I was walking through Malinor, a frail old man breaks his cane and drops his Minas. Having a small amount of pity for the race of Man, I offer my assistance. I walk to the man and pull out a small blade. I walk to the nearest tree, and cut off a sizable branch for the man to walk with. He tests the cane and gains a look of reassurance. He thanks me for the help, and begins to walk down his original path.

I like this. I like this a lot. There's a good melange of lore included in the biographies, and the ORQs are though out and precise.

Sadly, you did not answer the definition of power-emoting correctly, and for that, I will put this in Pending for 24 Hours. Use the link below to gather the true definition of power-emoting, and send me a PM with the definition included! Remember to put in your own words, as copying it and claiming it to be your own is illegal.

Good luck, and I await your response!

Noteworthy Hints and Resources:

You come to Asulon to Develop a Character, not have one Developed already

Just because you play RPG's, doesn't mean you have RPed before.

Don't post another application in a period of one (1) day. It clogs up the applications section, and doesn't prove to us that you have improved upon your application.
