-Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:
I do.
-Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:
I tend to be a little quiet until I know people and/or get used to the server, but after that I am normally somewhat talkative. I spend a large amount of time playing computer games, and Minecraft seems to be the game with the most playtime. I have days, possibly weeks of playing time on that.

Around 1 hour or more on weekdays, considerably more on weekends. So anywhere from 9 hours upwards, really.

~ 3 months.

I have played a large number of RPGs on the computer (I have over 80 hours on Mass Effect 2 alone), and have RPed a little on forums.
-What do you expect this server will be like?:
I am hoping that it will be very good, especially with the huge population.

The Dwarven kingdom is governed by a High Council- This seems to be the fairest form of government out of all of the races, as it does not lay power at the feet of a single individual.
-What was your least favourite Law?:
A Dominus vying for the position of Rex may challenge the Rex to single combat. If he wins, he is the new Rex- this seems to appoint leaders based on fighting skill rather than their ability to rule.

-Biography:
Thaern was born in the northern settlement of Snowy Fields. His father was a guard in the city, his mother a serving woman in The Crossroads Inn. When the Undead assaulted the town, Thaern fled with his family, out into the northern wastes, leaving behind everything they had ever known. In their panic, they fled well beyond the small region that they knew, and became lost in the north. The cold claimed his mother, as well as his father's left hand.
The two of them traveled for days, foraging and hunting, just managing to collect enough food to survive. They were close to starving when they saw a road in the distance. It turned out to be a forgotten road, almost buried beneath the snow. One way led to Al Khazar, the others towards Snowy Fields. Thaern's father instructed him to travel to Al Khazar, in the hope that he would be safe there. His father headed north, vowing to return with the family's valuables. He never did. At the next settlement Thaern came to, he purchased a map of the north, a compass, and some survival supplies, and headed back north after his father. There was no trace of his father's whereabouts to be found anywhere.
For months on end, Thaern searched the northern wastes for his father, with no success. One day, Thaern found a barely alive man buried in the snow, cold to the touch. He brought the body back to his tent, and in the warm it began to recover. Within a day the man was strong enough to stand, and simply got up and left. When Thaern called out to him, the man turned his helmeted head and stared at Thaern with the red glow inside his helmet, where his eyes should have been, before walking off. Thaern attempted to follow his tracks, but the falling snow quickly concealed them. *
The search continued. Thaern found remnants of a battle, which appeared to have involved Undead, judging by the scorched patches of grass that were evident where snow should have been. Realising the peril of his situation with Undead so far into the north, he was forced to abandon his search, and head towards a town, somewhere that would be relatively safe.
And so Thaern came to Al Khazar, capital of Oren. With its high walls and disciplined military, there were few places more safe. Or so he believed.
-Character Age:
27
-Character Appearance:
Thaern has black hair, with a black beard. He is roughly 5ft 11" tall, average for a human, with a slightly more muscular build than the average human, due to his years in the wilderness.
-Character Personality:
Thaern has a fierce hatred of Undead, and is still bitter after what happened to both of his parents. He can become somewhat aggressive over the incident at Snowy Fields, adamant that military aid should have been sent to hold back the Undead. He is quiet and will often not enter a situation without observing it from a distance, another trait he has picked up from his time in the far north. He is willing to be led if he believes it necessary.
-Your ambitions:
Thaern seeks to find his father, and destroy all of the Undead, after the attack on Snowy Fields. He will go to almost any lengths to achieve this, but would probably draw the line at murder, dependent on the situation.
-Can your character read or write?:
He is very fond of books, and he practiced his writing during his solitude by recording all that he had discovered during his time in the wilderness.
-Can your character mine?:
He can hollow out a small shelter in the ground, but that is about the extent of his mining ability. Most of the rock in the north was covered with ice and snow.
-Are you a capable builder?
He can construct a rudimentary shelter, but not much else, as he has little cause to build in the wilderness.
-Can you wield a sword?:
-Enjoy Farming?:
He does not particularly enjoy it, but will do so if necessary.
-Does your character have any special skills?:
He can survive in desolate places by foraging and hunting, is a competent tracker, and has a slightly above average resistance to cold.
