Redbain's Application:
1)MC Name & RP Name: MC Name: Jtheo2016 | RP Name: Redbain Adelban
2)Chosen Patron: Lefor, god of the War and Protection
3)Reason For Joining (do not have the reason be to become Ascended): A friend of Redbain's, Prophet Braxis Silverblade, attempted to convince him to join, suggesting there would be very little change in his day to day life except that he would now serve a god. Encouraged, Redbain decided it would be a good idea to earn forgiveness of sins for his many villainous actions as the Faceless Man, such as, murder, thievery, and lying. To Redbain, there is no better solution then to beg for forgiveness and then make up for it, hoping to reach a decent afterlife. Even more so, Redbain dearly misses the company of others, him having wandered Asulon for the past 10 or so years.
4)Race: Human
5)Flaws in Your Character: Redbain has a long, raw scar going from his forehead to the bottom of his eye. His eye is blinded where it is cut. He is also very prone to stomach injury as many of his ribs have been broken from battles and brawls. These, however, are merely physical weaknesses. Mentally, Redbain is ill equipped. He is smart, but he often rushes things and acts rashly. He would sooner draw a sword than talk, making him a horrid leader. However, he is fiercly loyal depending on who he serves, an amazing follower. Redbain believes that this order is perfect, as the leader is a god, someone Redbain can easily follow, but he may be blinded from the path, perhaps eventually corrupted by a new god. It is all in time that we shall see...
6) How long have you been on the server: Since day one.
Scenario Questions-Answer how you would react to each situation.
7) You notice an Apprentice Shade harassing a lowly citizen. [shades Are Evil Mages]*Redbain walks through Salvus, whistling his favorite tune, "Ragnar the Red," and hoping for a good night at the tavern. He overhears a man in a black robe bothering a citizen. Part of Redbain, his Faceless side, wishes to help the man in black to stir up some trouble, yet the otherside wants to help save the victim. He quickly comes to a decision.*
"Oi! Stop what yer' doin'! Tha' ain't right!" he begins to shout at the man in black, "Back away from da' poor fella or things gonna get nasty real quick!" The mage, appearing to be a young man, oh so arrogant and believing himself invincible, hurridly shouts back, "You can't take me old man! I'm much to powerful than you!" Redbain's face turns a bright red, matching his name.
"What did you just call me?" he asks forcefully, drawing his sword, "Biter," as he approaches, "Did you just call me, old?" Redbain begins to growl, readying himself to kill the mage. Fearfully, the mage only now realizing the situation at hand, begins to back away. "I didn't say anything! You have me mistaken!" The shade stammers and backs up against the wall. Redbain quickens his pace and turns into a full on run. He jumps, landing flat on the mage's chest.
The mage has the wind knocked out him, giving Redbain enough time to draw his sword and put it to the Shade's neck. "Ey', Runt." Redbain heaves the mage up and slams him against the wall. "Tell Lefor that Redbain sent you." Redbain laughs and drives the sword up into the mage's gut. Satisfied, Redbain begins to walk off, then realizing the citizen is watching him with wide eyed terror. "What?" Redbain asks. Redbain begins to chuckle and walks off to the tavern, hoping to complete his original goal.
8) You see a small child shivering in the snow.
*Deep in the Hanseti mountains, a small boy wanders around, lost and shivering. Redbain draws back his bow to shoot, thinking the boy a boar. The child shouts, "Help!" and Redbain quickly aims the bow to the ground, careful not to shoot. Redbain sees the boy is half starved with very little clothing in the middle of the forrest filled with snow. Taking pity on the boy, he steps out from the trees and begins to speak.*
"Who are ya'?" Redbain questions the boy. Startled, the child jumps, almost falling over into the sword. He then realizes that Redbain is not out to hurt him, and settles down. "My name is Lorem," he begins to say, but is then cut off by a spasm due to the cold. "Here now, don't ya speak no-more." Redbain removes his coat and places it on Lorem's ice-cold back, hoping to warm him. Redbain sits down and motions for Lorem to do the same, and Redbain begins to make and stoke a fire. "Now, wer' do ya' live?" Redbain asks, hoping for a snappy response. "Back in Hanseti," he responds, "with my parents."
"All right, come morning I'll bring ya' back ome.' Fer' now, let's stay warm." Smiling, Redbain takes out a pork and hands it to the boy. "Eat up, we be havin' quite a walk tomorra'!"
9) You are walking down the road when a bandit stops you and threatens to kill you if you don't give him all your money and valuables. *A bandit, dressed in all black runs up to Redbain, demanding all of Redbain's armor and all his equipment. Redbain, infuriated, begins to demand respect from the poor, unfortunate, bandit.*
"Who da feck' do ya think you are!" Redbain begins to shout, "demanding money and valuables from a hard working man. And even worse,' I be with a direct link ta' da' gods! I could smite ya should I even say da' word!" Redbain begins to create an elaborate lie to scare of the bandit. Cleverly, Redbain pulls out a fake staff he had created for one such occasion. Intimidated by the appearance of a man with magic, he attempts to run.
"Oh no ya' don't! I ain't done with ya! I will smite ya!" The bandit breaks out into a full out run, crawling for cover, believing Redbain's every word. Chuckling, Redbain watches the man run off. Redbain begins to think to himself, Why are these new theives all so gullible? Was I this bad? Laughing, he walks away from the scene, hoping to see that bandit again soon.
10) As you walk through the local market place a person begins to yell that Aeriel and the other patrons are weak and cruel and claims that joining Iblees is the only way to survive. *Smirking, Redbain overhears the poor, misguided soul. He enters the horde of the crowd listening to the man. He smiles to himself, realizing that what he was about to do would be a fun, yet dangerous prank that could get him kicked out of the city. Lefor would enjoy it...*
Redbain manages to throw his voice across the room, making it sound as if his voice was coming from the sky itself. "How dare you!" Redbain's voice boomed. "Ibless is weak! A coward! Only the true light of the paragons exist!" Redbain manages to stifle a giggle as the crowd begins to gasp and stare in awe at the sky. Cautiously, the man in the market begins to step down, hoping to avoid being killed on the spot. He raises his head to the sky and asks, "Who are you oh great god? I apologize for claiming Iblees to be the only escape! It was daft and dumb, please don't kill me!"
Redbain's voice booms once more, granting the man some mercy. "I am Lefor, the paragon god of War and Protection! I will not kill you, but hear this human!" Redbain coughs lightly, so as to avoid detection. "Should you ever change your faith to that of evil, there will be no mercy!" Redbain allows a full out laugh to escape his lips, throwing his laugh up into the sky so it would seem as if Lefor were speaking. Satisfied, Redbain flees, realizing he had fun whilst inspiring so many.
11) A person walks up and asks you, "Why does God allow suffering to continue?" *Redbain seizes his oportunity to display his optamistic view on the lives of humans and begins to create a conversation. Eventually, he truly begins answering the man's question.*
"Now listen ere,' the gods," Redbain stops for a moment to think. "The gods allow sufferin' because our lives are nothing but a show to them. Dey' watch us and laugh, they cry, and they enjoy it." Saddened, the person begins to slump. "But, the gods, should the show a person puts on be good nuff,' will grant the actor a grand prize! Eternal happiness!" His mood lightening, the young man begins to pay closer attention. "See, with all da' bad things comes some good. Like dis,'" Redbain clears his throat and begins to create an example in his head. "When a relationship ends, what happends?"
Not waiting for a response from the man, Redbain finishes with, "A new one! Everything good must fall! But everything that falls brings about something!" Redbain, blind to the man disinterest after chatting for an hour, continues to jabber without pause.
