In-Character Details Character Name: Telgur Character Race: Elf 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: Telgur is a Wood Elf who has brown hair and eyes, and always wore a hood to cover the giant scar at the back of his neck. He was born in a very small village with only 13 people in it, he was always training with his father to become the best archer that he could. When he was 15 years old he became an exceptional shot with a bow and could very well defend his village from bandit attacks. During a raid, Telgur was caught and captured and he was shackled to a wall, he used rocks to file his shackles off and he had to sneak out without the bandits knowing. There was a broken path which was not guarded; he had to jump from stone to stone with such grace and elegance. On the last stone he cleared the jump but three bandits were coming back from a raid on a camp, the bandits turn and saw Telgur they tried to slash him with their swords. Telgur rolled out of the way but one of the bandits took one last slash before Telgur started to sprint and cut him deeply on the back of his neck. On his return back to his village Telgur was greeted warmly by his family and friends, later that night he thought “If I could escape from a bandit prison at this age, I think I’ll be fine as an adventurer”. On that thought, two weeks later Telgur said his goodbyes, packed his precious bow that his father made him when he was young, and a fine sharpened iron sword and some food and torches for the journey. What are your characters ambitions?:To start his own village and become one of the greatest archers in all of the land of Auslon. Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here: http://imgur.com/JYPz2x0 Is there anything else you would like to say about your character: He is an excellent archer and very swift, agile and clever. 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? “Hello kind sir” I say softly to the dwarf. “Ello’ sir, may I interest you in any of these items I have?” The dwarf says excitedly, showing a bow, stone sword and pickaxe along with some iron ingots and coal. “Hmm let’s see what you have here.” I say interested. “How many minas would it cost for the bow and 5 pieces of coal?” I say still looking at the items. “54 minas for all of the items together, but I would greatly appreciate it if you threw in a few extra minas so that I could stay at the inn tonight” The dwarf says with a happy expression on his face. “Okay, for you kind sir, I’ll give you 60 minas for your finely crafted bow and coal” I say with a little feeling of selflessness. “Oh my, thank you ever so kind, kind sir!” The dwarf says very excitedly. “No problem friend, I hope you can get a home in the city very soon.” I say while walking down the street. 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? “Stop! What are you doing to this poor man?” I say shouting. “Dis man not be paying me my minas” The Orc says while holding the dwarf by his collar. “How much did this man owe you?” I say looking in my pocket. “40, no, uhhhhhh I think 54 minas dis dwarf owed me.” The Orc says lowering the dwarf to the ground. “I would gladly pay off this man’s debt if you let him go this instant.” I say with the minas in my hand. “Oh! Mokay I let dis man go!” The Orc says staring deeply into my hand. “Here take them.” I say tossing the minas in front of him. “Are you alright?” I say taking the dwarf away from the Orc. “Yes, thank you very much for helping me out there, I just didn’t have enough. Here take 10 minas from me as my repayment, it’s all I have that I can give away.” The dwarf says extending his arm out with the minas in his hand. “Thank you, try to be more careful when making deals with some Orcs, they can be very dangerous at times.” I say taking the minas from the dwarfs hand and walking away after that. 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?: “Are you alright?!” I say running quickly over to the old man’s aid. “Ahh I think I hurt my legs but I’ll be fine if I can get a new walking stick” The man says as I guide him to sit down and scoop up his minas back in his bag, handing it to him. “I think I can get you a new one just sit here and wait for a few minutes as I find some logs” I say looking around for trees, finding a good one and chopping it down. I bring the log back to where the man is sitting. ”Here I think I found a sturdy piece of log for a new walking stick” I say taking out a knife and carving it down. “Oh my, thank you very much I appreciate your kindness in helping an old man” The man says with a big smile on his face. “Okay, I think it’s just about done” I say doing the finishing touches on the walking stick and handing to the man. He takes it from me and begins walking down the road again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lita 677 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Altogether not a bad first attempt, however, there are a few things you need to fix. No server lore in the biography - You need to show that you have read into this server's history and culture. Make sure you know metagaming is a bad thing - Not a big thing, but the way you mentioned it wasn't clear that you knew it was. Remember to wait 24 hours before reapplying, and if you have any questions, feel free to message me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
