Parading

*Another similar looking note is posted. Aye I accept your offer.Were can I find your new town then?

*Posts a crumpled up dirty piece of paper* Aye I can provide my fishing services.One question once we pay off the house that ye give me do I still get payed for the fishing?

Seems like a good idea.Isn't really needed though.

*A tired halfling runs up to you handing you a message.*I have a diamond chestplate.How much are you willing to pay?Send a message to Agon Chidak.

*You see a note at your door.You try and make out the words as it is written sloppily but with fine grammar.*Are you in need of a spy,bodyguard,exterminator,or all of those things listed?Are there nasty bandits camping out near your town?If you answered yes to any of those previouse questions then you will want Agon Chidak's Ranger Services!If you are interested send a messenger or come down to Normandor and talk to me in person.I take pay in arrows or minas whatever one work make your offers!PS.I do not assassinate I am no murderer of the innocent!

Yes friend I agree.Maybe a good rebellion is in order.I was kicked out of Arethor for disagreeing with a night.

I do not know if this has been mentioned yet but once we do move I believe that the Mori would stay behind because they are too defensive of there land.So how about adding one new race that would be a native of that one land?I would personally pick trolls to be that race but any race would do.People could rp that they have been living on these new lands for a long time.There could be a war between the natives of the land and all of us new people coming to it.It would be like the discovery of North America :)

First off grinding never creates story or history.You would get far more story and history from just traveling.Also it makes more rp sense not to grind anyway.Your character has been coking for 700 years and you have to grind to get to 100?Doesn't make much sense does it?

Exactley that is why I think we should start out with 300 skill points it will cut out useless grinding and make more room for rp.

I think 300 skill points should just be given to players at the start.This would make for much more rp and less grinding for exp.This would be good also because nobody could be the jack of all traits and new players wouldn't have such trouble starting out.Instead of removing the skill system like what Cyndikate said we could just give 300 skill points to everybody and that would solve the issues from Cyndikate's post without everybody being the jack of all traits.

I have been checking this forum every day since my app and still nothing :/

(You may only be Human, Orc, Elf or Dwarf!) :Elf What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race):Wood elf. Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):Agon grew up near the elf capitol.His dad was a farmer. He never had a mother she left Agon's father when he was very young.Elves were only supposed to marry once but his father and mother never got married.Agon loved his father vary much even though his father didn't have much time for Agon.However when his father would make him help in the field Agon hated it.He always looked up to his father but never understood why he ran a farm.Such a dull and boring job could never appeal to Agon. When Agon was 7 he ran out into the woods and went exploring.When he got home that day his father beat him for going out without permission.Agon would have asked but he new his father would say no.But Agon liked the adventure he had in the forest.So the next day he went exploring in the woods again.He got beet again by his father.This pattern continued for the next week and his father realized that he won't be able to stop Agon from exploring.So his father decided to get Agon a bow and some arrows.His father thought if I can't stop him from going out he mine aswell be armed and be able to hunt.So his father said to Agon "You can go out in the woods on one condition.You half to hunt with this bow." Agon's father taught him how to shoot with a bow.This was one of the biggest father and son bonding's they ever had.Every day for a hour Agon's father would teach him how to shoot.Agon kept on exploring every day. When Agon was 10 he was still out exploring and hunting every day in the woods.He came across a small hut made of wood and mud.Agon became quite scared.He never encountered other life out in the forest except animals.Agon climbs up a tree and gets his bow string ready.He saw a small person about half the size of him.He thought it was a baby elf until the small person began to speak "Hello?Anybody here?" Agon was scared he wondered how a bay could speak in a 13 year old voice.Judging by his size Agon though he was no threat.Agon talked with the halfling for a while.Agon had never heard of of a halfling until then.They both got along very well and became good friends.Agon finally got around to asking him why he was out in the woods by himself at the age of 13.The halfling told him that his parents mistreated him so he ran away and has been living in the woods since he was eleven.The halfling new how to fish and start fires so that was how he was surviving for these years. Agon continued to visit the halfling for many years to come.Once Agon was 15 he was still visiting the small halfling.One day he went to visit and the halfling was stabbed and everything was looted from his home.It was explained to Agon that two orcs came into his hut and attempted to kill him but to his fortune the orc was so stupid that instead of stabbing his heart he stabbed the other side of his chest.Agon rushed back to the elf capitol carrying the poor halfling.He took him to the town healer.He knew the town healer was very skilled and was capable of treating the halflings wounds.When he got to the town healer he said sorry I only treat elves.Agon was so frustrated by what the elf stated he pointed his bow at him and yelled "TREAT HIM!" The healer got right to work on his cut.The healer said that he would survive but needs lots of rest.That wasn't enough for Agon he wanted revenge.He brought the halfling back home and Agon said "I have to go." The halfing replied "I know what your going to do don't be stupid.Those orcs are trained warriors that you won't stand a chance against." Agon wittily repled "They probablt aren't trained solders if they are bandits and I have the element of suprise." "I will half to stop you myself then!"Yells the halfling while using all the strength in him to stand up and grab his dagger."Your half the size of me and injured to the point were you can barely stand.Stop me if you can." Agon followed the path of the orcs from their footprints in the snow.After a 15 minute walk he came across a tent with two orcs in it.He could make out their shadows from the fire in the tent.They were arguing about who gets the last chicken leg completely unknowing of what was going to happen to them.Agon drew a arrow from his from his quiver pointed the bow wear he saw a shadow and shot.At this moment time froze.He had killed somebody.He didn't feel good getting revenge.He felt sick to his stomach for killing somebody.Then time came back and a huge orc was charging at him.He shot that orc to.He felt less bad the second orc he killed. He then started protecting the woods from villains.However he didn't run into many he would find the rare bandit or two in the woods that he would kill or banish him from the woods forever.However he couldn't keep living off his dad forever he needed to get a real job soon.Nobody would pay him to be a protector of the forest.Then Agon remembered some elf talking about rangers of the forest.A very rare exclusive group that was somewhat unherd of but were there.He realized then what he wanted to do in life, become a ranger of the forest. What are your Character's ambitions?:He wants to be a ranger of the forest and protect others using his stealth and bow skills. What is your character’s favorite tool?

Open-Response-Questions Each and every question must be answered with a minimum of a single full paragraph and entirely in RP. Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond?*Agon draws a arrow out of his quiver and pulls his bow dtring back pointing his bow at one of the orcs."Hey you scum orcs.Take your bloody hands off him or the both of you will have arrows through your heads!" Yells Agon from a distance.The one orc charges at him and gets a arrow through his head.The other whips a sword that just misses Agons head.The second orc gets a arrow to the heart and slowly dies.Agon goes up to the halfling and says "Are you ok?" The halfling replies "Thank you so much sir may I give you some money for your help?" Agon says calmly "No.But if you ever speak to a ranger of the forest put in a good word for me.Tell them I have been protecting people of the forest for some time now and my name is Agon.Ok?" The halfling replies "Yes sire will do!" Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response?Agon proclaims "No thank you I am happy with the clothes I have and do not need any new clothing at the moment.Maybe down the line I will come to this stall again to buy your wares." The man pleads in a begging voice "Please sir I do not have much money I really need some more sales." "Well I am sorry I do not have money on me right now and again I do not need any more wares at the moment."Says Agon is a raised voice."But si-" "I DO NOT want any wares I would perfer you stop hasseling people at your shop it isn't good business!"Yells Agon cutting of the shop keep. Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:*Agon closes the chest making sure other wanderers won't steal from it.*"EH looks like we have a thief!"Yells a man that walks into the room."Sir I was just closing this chest so other people that may be thieves won't find it as easy as I did."Explains Agon."STOP FEEDING ME LIES!" Yells the man while drawing his swords.Agon quickly draws his bow and pulls out two arrows from his quiver putting them both on the string."Do not start trouble with me you old drunken bafoon.I bet you before you reach me with that sword I can put these two arrows in your little head." Says Agon in a calm voice filled with anger."Ok please do not shoot I will leave you alone." Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond?Hello Can I get some food please I am starving.You see I got lost tracking down some bandits."Says Agon "Well sure if you pay a little fee for the food.You see we don't have much left ourselves."Proclaims the leader of the small trading camp. "Sure I will pay no problem.Thank you kind fellow." States Agon."Nice to see good people around these forest.Most people are bandits.I can offer you free protection to your destination if you like?"Says Agon in a nice tone."Well that would be very nice of ya sir." You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?:Sure I will help you guys out for free the only thing I ask is that if you come across the rangers of the forest put in a good word for me.My name is Agon." "Why thank you sir I happen to know a forest ranger that may be able to get you in."Agon thinks knowing he needs to make a really good impression so he can join the forest rangers."I can take out the whole camp myself."States Agon in a uncertain scared voice."Sir are you sure there are about 6 bandits out there."I am suree."Proclaims Agon extending his last word because he is really unsure and terrified."Ok if you do not come back withing sun down we will raid the camp our selves though."Says the guard."I promise you there will be no need for that."Agon finds the camp shoots 3 bandits without being noticed.He fires a fourth shot and misses his target and the remaining 3 bandits chase him.Agon gulps in fear and climbs a tree.He kills another bandit.The two bandits climb the tree he is in.He shoots one down and the other is right next to him already.The bandit swings his axe at Agorn.Agorn doges just in time and goes further up the tree.Once he is up further he shoots the bandit.Very proud of himself he goes back to the guards and says "Tooken care of." Anything else you would like to say?:This is for Syrenne's eyes only.
