Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:

Role-playing: Roleplaying to me is taking the role of a specific character who's
personality may or may not be similar to yours. Roleplaying is not
defined by how fast you type, but by how well you can carry out your
character's role.

Meta-gaming: Meta-Gaming to me is using knowledge that you gained oocly and using it
icly without doing any proper roleplay to legitimately obtain it.
There's many examples of Meta-Gaming such as knowing your opponent's
weaknesses just by reading it on their biography or maybe knowing the
secret identity of a character just by hearing it from someone oocly.

Power-emoting: Power-Emoting to me is carrying out actions against other people without
even giving them in opportunity to respond appropriately. For example:
"*as I send my blade to his neck it would ram off without missing at
all*". In this situation you don't give your opponent a chance to react which is unfair.

 

In-Character Information:
Complete the following biography on your character:

Full Name: Azarath Nightshade

 

Current Age: 136

 

Sub-race (if any): Dark Elf

 

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): As a child, Azarath had a loving mother and father who cared
for each other and him dearly. He was raised with grand morals and was given a
lot of freedom because of his peaceful, helpful, and good nature. His parents
were scholars and well respected users of magic. His father was named Avactus,
and his mother was named Meronym. One day, during an experiment, something went
horribly wrong – an accident occurred. Or at least, that’s how it was described
as. What started as a simple debate turned into a full out argument between
Azarath’s parents thus sparking tensions. His parents had different theories on
some aspects of magic that neither could agree with. His father was aggressive
at this point because he simply couldn’t believe that his own wife degraded his
beliefs. When Meronym had her back turned, Avactus wanted to teach her a
lesson. He didn’t expect that new fire spell to be so potent; all he wanted to
do was singe some of her hairs. He held her charred body in his hands as he
tried to do anything to save her life. Azarath simply watched the whole thing
in shock. Speechless, he looked to the ground as his mother finally passed on.
Since that day Avactus had stricken fear in him by infecting his mind with lies
such as if he had ever told the authorities about what really happened to his
mother, he would be tortured by Iblees for an eternity. Avactus still loved his
deceased wife and sought ways to bring her back from the dead. He became
obsessive with his studies as he tried to find a way to reanimate her corpse;
of course this was all in vain. Avactus neglected Azarath since then so Azarath
ended up taking care of himself from an early age. When he turned 20, without a
word, he left his father to his madness forever.

He has pledged to stay away from magic forever at first, but
had decided that he should educate himself on the topic, following in his
parents’ footsteps. He feels that if he is properly educated on the
applications of magic, then what happened with his mother and father won’t
happen again. He would also like to educate others on magic whenever he learns
it himself. Azarath now explores the world trying to grasp as much knowledge as
possible while helping anyone he can along his travels – especially children.
He doesn’t wish for any of them to have a terrible childhood such as his.


Ambitions for the Future: He would like to learn about the different types of magic and its origin and then pursue learning some for himself. Also, when he is ready, he would like to return to his father and see what he's up to.

 

Personality: Azarath is mostly quiet and can sometimes give off a dark
feeling to those that approach him. He doesn’t do this on purpose however. He
is simply not very trusting of those around him and doesn’t wish to show that
much emotion. Sometimes he can have a particularly dark brand of humor which
some can find pretty disturbing. If you get to know Azarath, then you’d know
that he is a good person at heart.

 

Skills: He is an expert swordsman and critical thinker. His aptitude for knowledge makes him an excellent strategist when it comes to combat.

 

Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):

Glowing purple eyes, platinum white hair, charcoal skin, light metal armor and cape. He has facial tattoos as well and a stern look.

 

Any other details you wish to share about your character: When he looks into your eyes, it's almost as if he is looking into your soul.

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. As you walk through the deep forests you hear the sound of whispering and snickering. Upon inspection you realize that a group of older elves are mocking a small elven child. How do you react?

Answer: Azarath stops and looks at the scene unfolding before him. His first thought is to grab for his sword, but he remembers the already low population of elves. He was clutching the hilt of his sword in anger unknowingly. He let's go of the hilt and decides to walk up to the group of elves. He brutally moves right through the crowd towards the small elf child in defense. As he reaches the child, he stands in front of him so that the crowd of older elves looks himself in the eyes.

     "So this is how you want our children to grow up? In fear of their own brothers and sisters? We have enough problems as it is in this world and you needn't add to it. Move on with your day and leave this child alone!" says Azarath.

The crowd grudgingly moves away from the scene, leaving Azarath and the boy alone. Azarath gives the small elven child a couple of coins before walking off.

2. Whilst wandering through the Elven forests you come across a frail old man with a walking stick. He collapses in front of you, falling to the ground with a sharp thud. Out of his pocket falls a small pouch of gold coins, which hits the ground and splits open spreading coins across the pathway. The man lies there, defenseless - what do you do?

Answer: Azarath looks to the hefty sack of golden coins, envious. Thoughts of what he could buy with that money flash through his head, but a thought echos in the back of his mind.

(Don't do it.)

(But why not?)

(It isn't the right thing to do.)

Azarath stares at the man for a while, contrasting thoughts playing in his head until the opposing parts of his brain finally reach a consensus. He helps the man off of the ground along with his pouch. He then puts the pouch back into the man's hand after giving him the cane. Delighted, the old man gives Azarath a couple of gold coins for helping him. Azarath has warm thoughts in his mind because he helped him, but he doesn't show it.

3. Whilst traversing the Elven Woodlands, you come across a small clearing in which a colored carriage sits. A trader stands outside of it and calls you over, telling you of his wares. He points out that his carriage sells just about everything, and that he's willing for you to haggle for a price. What does your character do? (Please include:- item, haggling for prices and the discussion involved).

Answer: Azarath marvels at all of the wares that the trader has for sell, taking specific note of a jewel encrusted sword. The trader sees him eyeing it and puts up a price.

     "You like that sword, eh? It's only 100 gold pieces my boy," says the Trader.

Azarath stares at the man, blankly - offering no words. He sees the trader's travel schedule pinned against the wall in a dark corner of the trader's wagon.

     "Do you talk at all?" says the Trader.

     "I can't afford this sword, but I believe I can offer another service...." says Azarath.

     "I've seen your travel schedule. You're going through the wilderness this afternoon," says Azarath.

     "How did you...." says the Trader.

     "Nevermind that. In exchange for me securing your safe passage, the sword could be a sufficient payment."

     "Quite the offer Dark Elf, and if you so happen to die, I suppose I keep the sword anyway. It's a deal."

Azarath set off with the trader at dusk, headed towards the wilderness.
