In-Character Details

Character Name: Artorias Wolfbane

Character Race: Human-Elf, (primarily human)

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:

   Artorias was born into the very harsh and cold climates south of Arethor , but from birth his elf mother had died shortly after from illnesses and his human father had fled. Artorias wears corroded silver scaled plate armor, however his helmet is a one-of-a-kind it was left for him from generation to generation by his father. His actual physical appearance projects him as a male with light blue hair, which most of it protrudes from the back of his head; he has a relaxed and gloomy demeanor almost expressionless. Unlike average humans Artorias lives substantially a longer life because of his elf blood, so Artorias is about 120 years old, but looks relatively young. Although, since he is half elf he won't live as long as a true elf and his elf properties aren't as buoyant. 

   Artorias would have died in the cold if a person traveling back to Arethor hadn't found him wrapped in cloth near his mother's corpse; unbelievably the infant had no illnesses passed on from his mother. The only representation of his father was the helmet that was passed on to him and the corroded armor left for him; he always wondered if his father ever loved him or ever was proud of him. Artorias lived his life as a hardworking person as his new legal guardian was a shopkeeper & a blacksmith. It wasn't until he was attacked by a bandit on an errand to deliver a new sword that he knew his potential with the weapon. He used the sword against the bandit parrying the first attack and launching a counter-strike to save himself from the bandit; from that day forth he decided to make his father proud by vanquishing criminals and making the world a purer place with the help of his current guardian to start his journey.

 

What are your characters ambitions?:

To make his father proud by vanquishing criminals and changing the world for the better.

Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here:

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:

Artorias believes if he forms or joins a guild of powerful adventurers he can change the world for the better and in turn hopefully get his father (if he is alive) to notice his prosperity and bravery.

 

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?

    While walking though the city of Arethor I saw many shop keepers each looking exponentially greedy, but one had a different expression- he was desperate. It seemed he was a dwarf barely having any money to feed himself and his family due to his ripped up, decrepit clothing. Feeling generous today I walked over to the dwarf and said "Excuse me, but I would like to buy that pile of iron ingots over on the shelf- would 200 Minas suffice?". His sad expression changed into a happy expression and he hastily brought the iron to which in turn I payed him. "Thank ye sonny, I am thankful." said the dwarf. We had a little chat and I left while waving goodbye back to him.

 

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?

     I quickly tread towards the situation and push the orc away from the dwarf before he was about to strike. I ask the dwarf "Are you ok?". He answers that he is fine, but suddenly the orc stirs up into a frenzy and charges at the both of us wielding his warhammer. Hastily I pulled my sword from its sheath and parried the orc's attack, While I was winding up to attack the orc again, he kicked me knocking me off my balance and prepared to strike me again, but before he could the dwarf interrupted the attack clamping on to his leg. The orc tried recklessly to get the dwarf off from his leg, but the dwarf was stuck to the orc like a sap on a tree; I took this chance to impale the orc with my sword ending the battle. "Thank you." said the dwarf and I said back to him "You too sir." after our little conversation I gave him my spare dagger that I carry in case of emergencies to help protect him on his journey.

 

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 defenceless man. What does your character do?:

    I helped the old man up and said "Are you alright? I think you need a new cane." he answered with slight whispers that there weren't too many bruises. I collected the Minas from the ground and gave it to the old man; "So where are you heading?" I said, he answers with "I am traveling to Solace to see my grandson.". "I see well I could help you there before finishing my errand." I said as I trample around finding a branch that can act as a new walking stick for the old man. "Ahhh, here this will do." said myself while handing over the makeshift walking stick to him. "I appreciate your kindness." said the old man and we traveled together towards Solace.

Your application has been...

 

Denied.

 

Reason(s):

 

If an Elf gets a child with a Human, the child gets both of the curses. This means that the child will be infertile and be short lived.

 

Why did your father leave you and your dead mother in the open in the cold? This makes no sense to me.

 

And finally, your biography goes from his history to his physical appearance and then back to his history. This was slightly confusing to read.

 

 

Overall, you fixed most of the problems that were said on your previous applcation and I'm sure you'll get in next time!

 

Please re-apply in 24 hours.

 

If you have any questions, please, don't hesitate to PM me.
