In-Character Information:

Complete the following biography on your character:

 

Full Name: Ahern

Current Age: 107

Sub-race (if any): Wood Elf

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

    Ahern was born to a wood elf couple in Malinor.  They named him Ahern because they thought he was a blessing to their family.  His parents were merchants in Malinor.  They taught him to barter and haggle for prices.  He also learned how to be very eloquent.

    Ahern’s father took him hunting as a child, but Ahern did not like hunting.  Although he was a decent marksman he found the thought of killing an animal just to eat it distasteful.  He thought it had no purpose when they could easily get food from the farms.  He made an oath to himself never to eat the flesh of any animal unless it was a life or death situation.

    When the natural disasters started to occur in Asulon, Ahern’s parents took him with them on a ship.  Ahern’s parents died on the ship.  Ahern made it to Anthos, but not without almost dying from the plague. Half of the people on the ship died, but Ahern was blessed to have survived, and he escaped without the scarring.  He tries to avoid the open sea whenever possible now because it reminds him of his parents death and his near-death experience.

    Ahern’s first act in Anthos was to travel the land.  He explored and made friends in all the races.  He discovered he had a talent of making peace and friends.  Many of his friends were mages.  Ahern always liked the aspect of magic, but he has never had the conviction to stay in one place other than Leumalin for long enough to learn.

    Ahern respected his parents and their trade, but he always wanted to do something more.  He wanted to serve his people to his fullest potential. He hopes to make it onto the high council of the elves one day. He would like to continue his travels though, so he would like to start as an ambassador for Leumalin.

Ambitions for the Future: To become an ambassador for Leumalin and from there make it onto the high council and learn magic.

Personality: He is a loyal friend and he is an eloquent elf. He does not eat meat except when it is a necessity of life.  He is deathly afraid of the sea and the plague.

Skills: He is of average skill with a bow and arrow and above average skill in speaking to others.

Any other details you wish to share about your character:

 

 

[b]Open-Response-Questions[/b]

[i]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.[/i]

____

 

[b]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?[/b]

 

Answer:*Ahern walks towards the older elves

Ahern:”Hail brethren, you should not mock a younger elf.  We as the mature elves should realize that all children are a blessing.”

Older Elf #1:”And who are you to tell us what we should do, brother?”

Older Elf #2:”We will do whatever we please.”

Ahern:”You may do as your heart desires, I simply wished to explain to you my way of thinking.  I was hoping to have ended this on better terms, I hate it when I am unable to come to an agreement with someone, but so be it.”

*Ahern picks up the Elven child and walks away ignoring the other elves.

*Ahern finds the child’s parents and explains to them what happened hoping they would deal with it as they saw fit.

 

[b]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?[/b]

 

Answer:*Ahern picks up the walking stick and helps the man up.

Ahern:”Are you ok?”

Old man:”I am fine, I just lost my footing and fell.”

*Ahern picks up the gold and takes out some cloth for a makeshift coin pouch, and he gives it to the old man.

Ahern:”There you go sir.  Let me escort you to the nearest town, and I will help you find a well-priced inn.”

Old man:”That would be splendid. Thank you.”

*Ahern leads the man to the next town which so happened to be the Elven capital, Leumalin.  Ahern then finds a nice inn and haggles a good price for the man.

*Ahern pays for the old man’s room, and he leaves before the old man can deny the gesture.

 

[b]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:*The trader calls Ahern over to look at his wares.

*Ahern walks over to the carriage.

Trader:”I have most anything and for a reasonable price too.  Would you care to buy anything?”

*Ahern takes a look at the trader’s wares, and he notices some books on the different qualities of the descendant races.

Ahern:”How much are those books?”

Trader:”Well, they are quite rare, but I would be willing to part with them for 50 gold a piece.”

*Ahern is silent for a second thinking over the price.

Ahern:”I don’t have the money to buy all those books for that much and find an inn to stay in for tonight, so I will give you 35 gold a piece and let us be done with it.”

Trader:”35 gold for these rare books would be like me just giving you the crown jewels for free.”

*Ahern frowns.

Ahern:”I am sure the books aren’t that rare.  If you would like I can just go on my way, and we could pretend this never happened.”

*The trader scans Ahern to see if he is serious.

Trader:”Fine, I will give them to you for 40 gold a piece.”

Ahern:”It is either 35 gold a piece or I walk away and forget I ever met you.”

*The trader gives in.

Trader:”Fine, I will sell them for 35 gold a piece.”

*Ahern smiles and gives the gold to the trader.

*The trader scowls, gives Ahern the books, and he rides away in his carriage.
