This is your character's biography. It is also required to include server lore when writing. (Names of towns, major server events, ect. Most lore can be found on our wiki.): - Patrick was orphaned at a young age, and was raised by a conclave of pyromancers in northern Anthos. He began training with them, and learned the basics of pyromancy. Soon however, the conclave was discovered by a group of bandits that had formed in the nearby hills. These bandits saw a grand opportunity to collect some very rare items from the conclave, who they vastly outnumbered. The bandits mounted a full scale assault, and a pitched battle saw the destruction of both forces, for the bandits had severely underestimated the pyromancers power.The only survivor was Patrick, who had been out meditating at the time. Upon finding his home destroyed, he was filled with a deep hatred for bandits and their kind. He set out, vowing vengeance on all bandits. H travelled, and became a hunter. His pyromancy skills had never progressed past lighting a campfire, and keeping it lit. With no one to teach him anymore, Patrick was forced to rely on martial skills to defeat the rogues he hunted. This came to an end when Anthos was abandoned, and everyone moved to Thales. Upon arriving on Thales, Patrick resumed his quest for revenge. in 1687, he was ambushed by a group of bandits outside a halfling village. He managed to destroy his attackers, but was grievously wounded in the fight. He was found passed out, almost dead of blood loss, by a halfling foraging party. He was brought back to the halfling village, and his life was saved by them. He has taken the last two years to recover, and to take a look at his life. He is now prepared to set out again, but no longer in search of revenge. He now seeks adventure, and companions, with great hope for this new world of Athera as a clean slate for himself. What are they like? (personality): - After the destruction of his village, Patrick was isolated for a long time, and his personality reflected as such. He avoided contact with others, and was gruff when it was forced upon him.After his encounter with the halflings, however, he realised just what he was missing without interaction. He is cheerful, optimistic, and has a grand sense of humor. What are their ambitions?: - To explore the world, seeking adventure and companions. Patrick has no desire to settle down at this point, nor to associate himself with any government. He gladly seeks out people of all races with which to travel and have good times. He also seeks a great mage to teach him the secrets of Pyromancy, a skill he often laments never training. Do they have any special skills? What are their weaknesses? (Try to list a few of both): - During his time hunting the bandits, Patrick gained many hunting and tracking skills. While certainly no wood elf, he is better than many humans and puts this to good use. He also learned basic survival skills, including foraging and cooking. He gained some small skill with the blade, but any trained swordsman could overcome him. Over the years, he has found an affinity to fire. He always prefers warm and dry environments, and does enjoy setting things on fire. He is still learning to curb this impulse, do to his relatively recent reintegration back into normal society. He hates water. He avoids it at all costs, often refusing to drink water all together. Rain puts Patrick into a sour mood, and he often stops whatever he’s doing to find shelter and warmth, and things to light on fire. His prefered drink is alcohol, partially due to its flammable properties, and this has turned him into a drunkard. Give us a description of how they look?: - Patrick is a tall, lean, light skinned human with a shock of red hair. He wears simple clothes, often a short sleeve tunic, pants, and sturdy travel shoes. He carries with him his staff everywhere, as well as a pack with travel supplies. Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: -

Ok, thanks.

I was reading the FAQ that's linked on the main register page, and it suggested that one should log on as a "Wandering Soul" to get the feel of the server. I thought this would be a good idea. However, when I tried to log onto the IP given, it sayed it was for premium only. Is that outdated information, or am i doing something wrong? Thanks, m19
