In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Tiana Gellantara Current Age: 19 Sub-race (if any): Northerner Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Tiana lived a simple life on her small family farm with her father, Christofar. Her mother, who tragically died during childbirth, left young Tiana without a permanent female role model. As a result Tiana often enjoyed playing with the boys from the nearby village. They would spend hours upon hours each day pretending that they were noble knights fighting off bandits and evil wizards. The majority of Tiana’s childhood was very settled and she enjoyed herself, always willing to help out her father, until her 11th year. Whilst at the market one day selling some of their new lambs, her father fell into an argument with a nasty fellow over the price. Christofar and the man got into a shouting match which very quickly turned sour. Her father was left battered and bruised by his stall, as a guard dragged the assailant away. The village butcher helped Tiana bring her father home. Christofar was bedridden for 4 days, slipping in and out of conciousness before he finally passed away in his sleep from bleeding on the inside. Tiana was now an orphan. Only 11 years old and on her own in the world, she couldn’t maintain her father’s farm, and in just a few weeks after her father’s tragic death, Tiana found herself homeless and sleeping rough. Stealing food from wherever she could find it, Tiana spent the next few years of her life travelling between towns, trying to find work. Sadly there was rarely any to be had. At 17, she had made her way to the capital city, where she fell in with a local gang of street urchins. A ragtag bunch of orphans and gutter rats that would run wild around markets, stealing anything they could lay their grubby hands on. Tiana was not proud of the life she was leading, but it was the only choice she had. This life was not destined to last forever though. Some people might see prison as an awful place full of awful people, punished for the crimes they committed. Not Tiana though. She saw this as an opportunity. Locked away for 2 years, for attempting to rob a trade caraven, she had plenty of time to reflect on the decisions she had made and the life that she had led. On her 18th birthday, locked up in her cell, she made a vow. She was not going to live a life of crime any longer. She was going to turn her life around and make something of herself. She vowed that on the day she was released, she would go out into the world and train in combat. She wanted to protect people from crime. So that’s just what she did. She managed to find work at a bakery, and with her wages she paid a blacksmith to teach her the basics of handling a sword. That brings us to today, Tiana, 6 months free, some basic combat knowledge under her belt, and all the hope in the world. Ready to join the military, the town guard, anything that would let her protect the innocent, so that one day, she might even work her way up to knighthood! Ambitions for the Future: Tiana wishes to one day prove herself worthy enough of knighthood. Personality: A confident but withdrawn young women that is generally friendly and lives by the philosophy “Treat others how you yourself expect to be treated”. Honest, but slow to trust. Skills: Tiana has a basic understanding of how to wield a sword. Tiana is also proficient in staying out of sight. A skill she picked up during her time on the streets. She wouldn’t ever use this skill for crime ever again, but it might be useful to her one day. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): A pale skinned young women with green eyes and light brown hair, tied back in a ponytail and covering the right side of her face. Any other details you wish to share about your character: 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 in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do? Answer: Approach the guards and alert them of the suspicious figure. Taking close attention not to make the figure aware that I am alerting the guards, for my own safety. Who knows what intentions he has or potential weapons hidden away. 2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react? Answer: Confront the bandits and signal for the elderly man to get inside to safety. Try to find out what’s going on, and if possible peacefully resolve the situation. 3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colourful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens). Answer: I’d begin by asking him if he’s travelled from somewhere, if so ask him how the journey was and if he saw or heard anything interesting. This would build up a friendly first impression, that might give me an advantage in getting an answer for my next question, “Where did he acquire his stock?” because having no set prices and willing to haggle makes me wonder that maybe he’s trying to get a quick sale, get rid of the items as fast as he can as they might be stolen. It all depends really on how he responds to my initial chit-chat. If he seems like an honest man, then I would just offer up a few coins for some water and food and be on my way.

ski_king3 0 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Your meta-gaming definition isn't correct. If you aren't quite sure what meta-gaming is, and aren't sure where to find a good definition, we have a good explanation here on our wiki. Please don't plagiarize, though. Your biography could use a bit of work. For one, it contains no server lore, something which is a bit of an issue. Try browsing the wiki for some lore regarding Anthos and implement it into your application. This can be names of places, people, events among many other things. Also, you perform villainous actions in your biography. You need a villain application to perform such actions, and therefore should not do so in your biography or application. Your first two ORQ's are far too short. Please expand upon them. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me. You may reapply 24 hours after the time on the post below this one.
