Full Name: Bahel
Current Age: 156
Sub-race (if any): None

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): 

Bahel was born on the ships that came to Asulon after the people of Asulon fled from the undead threat that now resided in their homeland. He was born to his mountain dwarf parents, having the typical reddish hair of a mountain dwarf. As a beardling,he got to see Kal'Karik as it was being built, since his father worked as a architect in Kal'Karik. Bahel and his father had a really close bond together. His father would take him to then unfinished Kal'Karik, in which he would help build. His father taught him about architecture  how to build and how to make things look nice. Bahel loved architecture, and used to carve small scale dwarven buildings out of boulders near his house; Bahel even managed to carve a replica of Kal'Karik out of a boulder. Everything was fine up to here, and then it happened.

 

When Bahel was very young, walking around Kal'Karik, he heard what he would never forget for the rest of his life: An ear splitting roar from the cities depths. From then, his life was never the same again. Bahel turned around torwards the source of the sound, only to find a great, winged, black shape flying around the city. The drakes had come for Kal'Karik's riches. Bahel did not know what it was, but he ran from it. He was not the only one to do so, soon a whole crowds of dwarves started running from the menace. The drake swept down onto the crowd, releasing its breath of flame upon the panicked dwarves. Bahel was not affected by the flame, but many others were. Eventually  he saw his father and mother in the crowd, and had no time to reunite, for before his very eyes, the black drake released his flame upon the crowd once more, and incinerated his parents before his very eyes. He saw their flesh burn away and their bones turn to black dust, and soon, they were nothing. He was in a state of shock, and his only though: save himself.

 

Years after the Drake incident, after the dwarves returned to Kal'Karik, Bahel did not move back. Too much bad memories haunted his mind. In fact, Bahel lived in isolation after that, not returning to the dwarves until Kralos. Soon after the return to Karik, after the curse was unleashed, Bahel decided that the only way to survive was to rejoin the dwarves, and so he did. He boarded the ship to elysium, and after that, the one to kralos. He returned to his architecture, helping carve out the dwarven homes, and tried to forget his past by returning to his architecture. Carving out buildings out of stone soothed him, and he eventually forgot about his past. No he works in the Kralos hold, helping carve out houses and other things out of stone, living the ale-filled life of a dwarf.
 

Ambitions for the Future: To become Grand Architect

Personality: Bahel is a very happy dwarf and makes friends fast, and enemies even faster.
Skills: Bahel is very skilled at building dwarven buildings and also knows how to mine very well.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Bahel is a 4'9 dwarf with his medium sized red beard and a muscular build (for a dwarf). He always carries around his father's pickaxe, and a neckelace that his mother gave him when he was but a beardling.

Any other details you wish to share about your character: None

Open-Response-Questions
Each question in this section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
____

1. Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on. There is a very thin rock bridge that looks precariously unstable, but it is the only way to access the deposit. What do you do?

Answer: Bahel, being a dwarf, eyes the diamonds with the curse of greed bestowed upon him. He looks at the bridge, knowing that it would never support his weight, and makes up a quick solution. He moves over to a stack of logs, and retrieves two long, and thick logs. He ties three strong logs together, and knocks the logs over so that they reach the other side, and makes  a sturdy wood bridge. He slowly makes his way over, nd reaches the diamonds with a wide smile on his face.
 

2. You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you is a rather young dwarf whom is clearly going through a bad time. He is crying to himself, and clutching a small wooden hammer toy. In the other corner of the room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally at the dwarf. They stand up, one with a small dagger in his hand and begin to approach the young dwarf. What do you do?
 

Answer: Bahel eyes the small dwarf crying, and then notices the two shady dwarves coming for him with the dagger at hand. He does not know what to do, as he does not know how to fight too well, and decides to ignore them. As the dwarves come closer, they move towards Bahel, and not closer to the small dwarf. One of them swings his dagger at Bahel, but Bahel dodges it, yelling out "'Elp, dese two 'ave gone Stark!". The dwarves keep on chasing Bahel, but the legion arrives, and siezes the two dwarves, allowing Bahel to get away..

3. Whilst wandering through the Dwarven Caverns you hear a voice call out to you; “Oi, ye’! C’mere n’ get ye’rself an ale!”. You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded bar-owner looking at you - a huge grin on his face, and a mug of ale in his hand. How do you react?

Answer: Bahel cannot believe his luck. Free ale after a long day of mining and carving. He takes a few steps towards the dwarf, and then stops in his place. "Dis is too good to be true" he thinks, "Dis must be a trap". Bahel shouts at the dwarf "Which bar does ye own?". The dwarf answers back "Eh. . .ye know, that one by da. . .place!". Bahel does not believe the dwarf "Which place?". The dwarf answers back "C'mon! Et is free ale!". Bahel turns around and leaves "Ah nae takin da risk"

One or more of you definitions are incorrect - please add examples to each of your definitions so we can make sure you understand completely what each definition means.

 

Your Biography was good however try to make sure you are using server lore, this will make your application a lot better and will also give you a quick learning adventure about Lord Of The Craft. Also go into detail about your character and maybe talk about a key event in his life or talk about his strengths and weaknesses  The more detail about your characters life the better as it will tell us, The Application Team that you understand your characters role on Lord Of The Craft. Server Lore can be: Language, Place names, Characters, events, etc..

 

You can find a lot of server lore and interesting facts on the Lord of the Craft Wiki and many threads on the Dwarven Role-Play Forums. Here are the links to each.

 

Dwarven Wiki page

Dwarven Role Play Forum

 

If you need any more help on Lore or have any questions feel free to ask a lore master or member of the Application Team. I am sure they will be happy to help. And I highly recommend talking to Skippy~, Hiebe or any other dwarf, I am sure they might be able to help you.

 

Your Character Questions are too short, please answer these with a paragraph long answer. This will re-assure us that you understand your character well enough to role play with it.

 

Your Open Response Question need to display the role play method in them to achieve an accepted application. You need to set it out like this:

 

Edward looks around the Inn and notices a man tucked away in the corner. The man is wearing dark robes with a hood resting over his head. He walks across the room towards the man before calling over "Oi You! Come over here!" The man looks up towards Edward and gasps before attempting to get up and flee.

 

You should set out your role play that and then we will know that you can control role play with your character and also know if you have the role-playing skills to obtain a place on our server. If you can do this method with every single Open Response Questions they will be at a closer to acceptable applications standard. However do not forget to include details about your character and too make sure you stay as your character throughout the role play. Include his/her(s) strengths or weaknesses to make your role playing effective.

 

Good Luck with your next application 

 

Ben~
