In-Character Information:
Complete the following biography on your character:
Full Name: Aletta Marsia
Current Age: Unkown
Sub-race (if any): Northerner
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+
paragraphs long): Aletta grew up in Solace, she had the calmest, satisfying
life for quite some time. Her parents
were having a great time with their shop, earning a good amount of money
every-day. Aletta would often play alone
as she didn’t have many friends, nor did she have siblings. But it all changed
when it came to her education, kids were bullying her often, saying things like
“Why so blue?” Insulting her eyes, and her favorite color.
When she got older, a few kids attempted to attack her, her
being unarmed at the time wasn’t exactly great.
One of the kids had a knife, which he used to cut a scar into her left
cheek. She covers this scar with her
long hair. Eventually her parents fell
on hard times and she had to get a job to support her family, working as a cook
part of her time. One day, a kid
actually talked to her, without insulting her, saying, “Why are you always so
alone?” She recognized this person as
Meja Altsoba, who reminded her of a bunny.
She and Meja got along well, and became close friends.
When Aletta turned 19, she was old enough to leave her
parents so she wasn’t a burden to them.
She stayed at a local Inn working full time as a chef there. It was all okay until the Inn burned down, and
all her belongings with it. Meja
welcomed Aletta into his farm where she could stay until she could manage
alone. She stayed there for a while,
getting to know Meja better and better.
When Aletta finally left, she noticed the farm seemed quite
destroyed in plenty ways, it’d been too long since she had gone outside. Solace had plenty of buildings burnt down and
destroyed, plants were dead, and she thought she saw a walking skeleton out the
corner of her eye. She regretted leaving
the farm when she came to tell Meja what she saw. The entire farm was burnt down, plants and all.
When she found Meja, sorrow filled her heart, Meja had died
from what she thought was just a small war, seemed to be a war against a Demon,
as it had been throughout her life, just a war.
She buried Meja, and wandered searching for a meaning for her life.
She now wanders Asulon, and has forgotten her age, as it is
filled with only grief and loneliness eventually brought insanity.
Ambitions for the Future: She simply wants to have
happiness, and sustain it throughout her life, instead of it ending shortly
after she feels it.
Personality: her
personality is quite strange, as it seems, if the hair blocking her scar goes
to the right of her face, her actions change from good to evil.
Skills:
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your
skin): She has a dark cyan coat that she has always
worn, it was her fathers. Her blue eyes seem to be the deepest color of blue. She gives off an aura of mystery, making
anyone curious enough to talk to her.
She doesn’t seem to age, and always stays the same age as always. Her hands are small. She barely wears her hood down, and prefers
to keep it up. She is slightly nimble and
quite good with small blades. She is
quite good with the bow and arrow too. She
is also quite small, only measuring up to a mere 5 feet.
Any other details you wish to share about your
character: It’s best you don’t
associate with her, as she is a loner.
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: A common day
wandering through the Human capitol, Aletta was trying to find something to do
with her time. As Aletta looked up
towards the Emperor’s palace, she noticed a strange-cloaked figure. It was suspicious, as it was day, and why
would anyone wear a dark cloak? Aletta
walked up to the figure, only to find she had lost it to a crowd. Aletta wanders back to where she was before,
seeing the figure even closer to the Palace than before. Instead of Aletta going after him, she calls
over a guard, saying “Mr. Guardsman, have a look at that person up there, aren’t
they quite suspicious?” The guard would respond “Aye, I’ll go ask him what he’s
doing, heading to the palace, I’ll inform you after.” Aletta stood and waited for the guard to come
back.
After a moments of waiting he came back and told her “He was
attempting to sneak into the Palace, and thanks to you, I managed to stop him,
and he all did that out of curiosity.
What a shame.” Aletta would then
continue her daily wandering.
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: Aletta was
wandering through a forest, admiring the ivy growing up some of the trees. She eventually came across a cottage, where a
small, weak, old man shook, holding an iron blade. Aletta however, wouldn’t stand and watch this
man be killed, even if she was clumsy with a long sword. She charged into battle, her blade swinging
wildly, as she is used to quick movements with smaller blades. One bandit takes advantage of this, and
slices her leg. Limping, she manages to
avenge herself by knocking down the bandit, having him to fall onto a rock, unconscious. The other
bandit, burdened with the weight of loot from the man’s house, attempts
to draw his sword, but drops it.
Aletta stares a little at the bandit, as her vision fades
from blood-loss. The last thing she sees
is the old man attacking the bandit relentlessly. She awakes in the old man’s cottage, her
wounds tended to, and healed, she thanks the man, and leaves.
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: Aletta lets
out a small sigh, she didn’t like the capital much, but she decided to see if
there was anything decent to buy. She sees
a stall which is selling plenty of general goods, one item though, in
particular appeals to her, a golden locket, with a dark blue sapphire in the
center. She approaches the stall and
looks up to the man selling it, whispering, “How much for the locket?” The man
smiles and says “No price in particular, You tell me what you want to pay for
it.” Aletta thinks for a moment, on how
to haggle, sadly she isn’t particularly great with communication. She decides on what to say “Since it seems
like it is a low-quality locket that is actually quite beautiful, I’ll give it
a decent price, how about 120?” The man
takes this into consideration , “You’re quite right about it being a
low-quality item, but how about a little higher price, since the Sapphire is
actually more valuable than the entire necklace itself.” Aletta only had about 200 coins, she was
worried she might have to give the man all her money.Aletta bites her lip, saying “How about 190?” The man nods, “Done!” He takes the necklace out of the case and
places it on the table, Aletta then gives the man her money, taking the
necklace, being quite happy for being quite low on money.
