Complete the following biography on your character:

 

Full Name: Fenair Serax

Current Age: 21

Sub-race (if any): northerner

Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Fenair Serax spent his early years living with his brother Jayce and
his widowed father Borasker in the town of Kastoria. Although Jayce was willing
to help his father with the farm, Fenair was quite reluctant, mostly staying
inside playing with the herbs and plants he found while adventuring around
outside, infact most of his knowledge of herbalism is from personal experience.
Although his father, Borasker didn’t really appreciate him messing around with
the potential poisons, he let him, for he knew that Fenair enjoyed it so much,
and hopefully he could make a living from it one day.

In their teenage years, the brothers and their father left their home
and bought a farm on the outskirts of Abresi. Jayce and Borasker would tend to
the farm, as Fenair would stay home to hone his skills in alchemy. He also
cooked meals for his siblings, and cleaned the house to make sure he wasn’t a
complete waste of space.

After the Dwarven kingdom of Urguan broke their alliance with the Holy
Oren Empire Jayce’s father was required to help provide the Holy Oren Empire’s
military with food and provisions. This drained all of his father’s resources
and seeing as the Holy Oren Empire lost the war, these resources were never
repaid. Fenair’s brother Jayce set out to earn back some money for his father
by any legal means necessary, but Fenair stayed home with his father keeping
the farm in check until his brother returned. A year had past, and Fenair was
growing inpatient, so he decided to leave home to reunite with his brother
jayce and assist in earning his father the fortune.

Ambitions for the Future: to reunite with his brother Jayce, and return his father’s fortune.

Personality: immature, but can be serious if needed.

Skills: alchemy, herbalism,  tactical
thinking, teamwork, stealth.

Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): brown hair, blue eyes, black and brown leather
robes, pale skin

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: I approach A the nearby guard subtly and inform him of the suspicious
actions, I then stay back to watch the confrontation, being ready to be of the
guards assistance if it is required.

 

 

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: I start sneaking hastily towards the bandits, but notice a familiar
plant in the grass, from my knowledge of nature, I know that this plant can
temporarily blind people and cause serious irritation to the eyes, I grind the
plant up in my hands, and sneak up to the bandits.

I throw the ground up plant into the first bandit’s eyes, then quickly
disarming the second bandit with a solid kick to his hand, then finishing him
off with a swift strike of my longsword. I then insure the man is okay, and
continue on with my travels.

 

 

 

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 would like to buy some alchemy ingredients. I see that the shop
owner has limited experience of these goods, due to how he names them
incorrectly. I use this to my advantage, setting prices only a little bit under
the standard as to not cause suspicion, I then leave a happy man, with a swag
of rare plants and herbs.

 

Thank you for your
time

~Under Review~

 

 

Sadly I have had to deny your application, here are some things you could improve on:

 

• Your definitions are incorrect and/or need to be expanded on with added examples.
• All three of your ORQs are too short and need to be expanded on greatly with dialogue.
• Along with the above two, there are quite a few grammar errors along with spelling ones too. I suggest fixing this in your next application

Also if you have not already I suggest you read the alchemy lore on the server.

Please wait at least a full twenty four hours as of this post's edit (seen below) before posting your next attempt. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message. Good luck with your next application.
