Manathar

Out of breath, a thin, wiry man runs up. Panting, he looks up at the accused and starts speaking: "I just heard what that man said, and I'm sorry about that. He's just a harmless madman, he really doesn't know a thing about this and that, he just puts names and places together, and just happened to choose you. None of what he said ever happened, I can attest to the fact that he has never even visited Seventis in his life. So sorry about this, now I need to get him back." The man looks wildly around, unsure of where to go. A kindly man who saw where the earlier man had run off points him in the right way. He begins sprinting after the hooded man.

Hearing the Symodimi's hypocritical statement, the hooded man pauses in his tracks, returning. Coughing again, the man shouts out loudly: "No doubt you remember me, but you just don't want anyone to know, but I will get it out. Allow me to refresh your memory then. I was he who found the key in the woods outside Seventis, I was he who used that key to get out of the city as nobody was at the gates. As you asked, I gave you the key later, then you and one of your men questioned me about how I got it. I gave my answer, and trusting as I am, I went with you to the cells to be questioned further. There, you and the girl-elf, and later another man questioned me for a while. It was at this point that you tried and failed three times to tie me up. You drew a blade, and began to torture me. I did not defend myself, even though I easily could have, for the law is the law. I was perfectly content to let this die down, for I forgive you. But hearing that someone else had also fallen victim to torture in Seventis, I had to make this known, hearing now that you had tortured in Aegis too. I have said all I need to say, but hear this: All those who think this 'Mandarin' to be a liar, you may be wrong, and he may be speaking truth." Finishing his speech, the man leaves for good.

Smirking sardonically, a hooded man steps up. Coughing slightly, he clears his throat, and begins to speak. "While I can easily believe that King Renati is a man of honour, I however can attest to the fact that their military leader, Symodimi employs torture, for I was tortured, almost to death, by him, while several of his men watched on, cheering him on. I am sorry to say this, but perhaps King Renati must have a closer look at those he trusts, for it appears that he has been deliberately misled by one of his own. King Renati is a man of principle, and I believe that he thinks his statement to be true. Sadly, though not of his own doing, it is false." Having said his piece, quickly he sidles away, soon melding into the forests.

Gryphon grimaced, reading the notice. He regretted losing his blade in the wilds, especially since it had served him well for many a year. He pinned a note beside the notice, having seen another man do the same. In a shaky scrawl of an unseasoned hand, it read: "I can aid in this if a sword is supplied, for mine was lost in the wilds a few weeks ago. Gryphon" Satisfied, he added a small scrawl to the bottom corner that barely resembled the letter 'G'. ((Any question I would have asked has already been asked))

((I too am interested in joining one of the tribes, and like Mr Thrym said, good luck with college, from what I hear it is going to be quite the experience :P))

MuddyCake, l'Arnan.

Me! Don't forget me!

Would there be a sort of central hub for the nomadic tribes to meet at to confer, say for example a patch of sacred ground? After all, throughout history in times of meeting, nomadic tribes have been notoriously hard to find, and trade was basically only done with their agriculture-based neighbors, who had permanent homes. If your plan is to have many different tribes each with their own backgrounds based on real-life historical nomadic cultures, would not at least one of them have to make or maintain relations with a town/city of some sort, a mutual ground where they can all meet? Sorry if what I write above doesn't make sense, I have a bit of a headache right now. P.S. I think I have Sauros Alanbaatar's passport.

Can someone send out the location so we call all help?

Sure, I am willing to sign :P

Hooray :D

Spelling is no problem. - Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: In my spare time I enjoy writing and listening to music or playing games with strong lore. I prefer RPG over non-RP.

I like landscape to be pristine as it was naturally (or rather randomly generated) formed. Things like floating trees irritate me greatly. - What was your least favourite law?: I think that all the laws are necessary in their own way, and I don't feel that any law is unfair or unneeded, so I have no least favorite law. - What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?: Manathar In-Character: - Character Name: Ignaeous 'Goldy' l'Arnan - What is your Race?: Human - Biography: Once a petty thief from the streets, Goldy, as he prefers to be known, is a bastard son of a human noble, and being a bastard son, was left uncared for by his father, and abandoned on the streets of Al'Khazar. As he grew, he was picked up by various street gangs and taught the tricks of the trade. Drifting from town to town with a group of men, he stole what he needed to survive, but after a while, he grew weary of the constant thievery and lying. Questioning the lessons he had learnt early on in life, he decided to leave them and start a new life for himself, one without any blemishes or disreputable actions to stain his name. Having learnt all he could from them, he decided to make his way on the world on his own. After a rough encounter with an orc that left him witha healthy respect for the race and their physical prowess, he found himself wandering down the King's Road towards Kal'Alras, a city which he was quite enamoured with; the scenic beauty and elegant stone walkways of the city seeming to reflect the grandeur he strove to attain. Loitering at the outskirts of the city, he was struck by the intelligence and depth of the conversations he heard, and soon made it his goal to gain wisdom and knowledge so that he too, might one day be included in such talks. His wanderings took him to the Elven city of Laurelin, where he marvelled at the natural splendour of the trees and flora that so contrasted with the practical architecture so common in the Orc War-Nation, which he had spent a brief sojourn in before hastily making his way back to Oren. Finding some peace in tending to plants, he decided to take it up as a pastime, and sought out a mentor who taught him of the teachings of the Arch Druid Brandybuck and directed him to the writings of the Arch Druid. Now, armed with basic knowledge of tasks and lessons from the streets, Goldy began his quest to forge himself anew. - Character Age: 23 - Character Appearance: His grey piercing eyes are hard and unused to mirth, and his elegantly sculpted features seem perpetually set in disdain. A widow's peak finishes the ensemble of a patrician of old. His bearded visage is unusually clean, and in his right ear is a golden earring, the source of his nickname. In public, he makes no attempt to disguise his lowly roots, wearing stained peasants garb. - Character Personality: Though truly cold and secretive, he appears to others as a polite, respectful person, reserving his true opinions of others to himself. In nostalgia of his roots, he often frequents taverns and other disreputable parts of society. He does not enjoy the company of halflings, seeing them as aberrations, however he recognizes their skills and grudgingly respects them. He dislikes wastefulness, especially in human skills. - Your ambitions: Goldy seeks to transcend his roots via whatever means necessary. Even though his ambition is noble, he doesn't mind dabbling in any dirty business as long as it is profitable. - Can your character read or write?: He can read, and he can write, however his handwriting is atrocious, and he wouldn't know what to write about. - Can your character mine?: No, he prefers trading or hiring others to mine for him as he has never used a pickaxe in his life. Working stone is something he will never be good at. - Are you a capable builder?: Building is not his strong point, however he has a flair for designing bad-looking structures which are in his mind, elegant. - Can you wield a sword?: He has had some experience with swords, however he prefers knives, but essentially anything with a blade is good enough. - Enjoy Farming?: Farming has always been therapeutic for him, and he enjoys it. Being surrounded by lush greenery soothes him, and the smell of growing crops is calming for him. - Does your character have any special skills?: He has learnt pick-pocketing and lock picking from fellow thieves, however those skills he will not use as he is attempting to turn a new leaf, and he has developed a knack for telling valuable items from fakes after conning others with similar fakes. - A screenshot of your skin: http://postimage.org/image/5dol87fmv/ - Other Information: This is an awesome server, regardless of if I get in or not. Second time's the charm :D
