I see, I'm actually having trouble finding Clan Douglas's page, they have one in the forums right? I guess its because Douglas is such a generic name that it is messing up the search results XD

Are these all active too? I don't really want to join a clan that is dead... I'll look into the other two, but I was wondering what positions are open in Campbell-Brae?

I was wondering If there were some nice helpful people out there that wants to help me make a Adunian Application. I have previously had a Female Adunian, which ended up not turning out well because...well..I was new and foolish, and I had no clue where anything was in the map, So I had no clue where an Adunian was supposed to go and not go, which led me into a bunch of trouble. But now I was able to go back into wandering soul mode so I could look around (Thank you Freya <3 ) and I now have a Much better view on where everything is (Orcish land and Dwarven land is still a bit of a mystery to me, but I don't plan on going that far down the map anyways) I wouldn't mind playing a female Adunian again, but I kinda like the idea of playing as a male too. They would have to be about eighteen or nineteen, because I'm more comfortable rping in my age range. The one thing that I am lost about is the whole, Most Adunians are in clans/houses/families etc, So I was wondering if their was anyone out there that needs a teen Male or Female Adunian in their clan/house? We can work on the specifics later, I would like to pick out my characters own first name though. For a male it would be Adrian and for a Female it would be Adriana (Adri for short) so does anyone want to help a fellow Adunian out? :>

i like number four remember you have to consider the elves and other long-lived creatures in Lotc. I mean, do they really want to wait 4+ years for their character to age considerably? Then again 1 irl year = 52 ic years, so for most humans they would live like, one and a half years the most. I bet it all depends on how long a person is willing to keep a character.

((Does that mean in game or out of game or both?))

He wanted to find a wife and settle down when he met Arianna’s mother, a beautiful wood elf that ignored the calls of Dryad-ism, in the capital of malinor. Arianna’s father stayed the night at her mother’s home while a thunderstorm raged above the trees, he didn’t leave for the next few years, helping Arianna’s mother ignore the calls of dryad-ism, which she had trouble controlling. They ended up marrying in the elven capital, but that night instead of spending the night in the same bed, they left for a large city that would, hopefully, not notice their interracial marriage. They ended up settling in Vaerhaven, in a modest home. On the way to Vaerhaven, Arianna’s mother pointed out to her husband the tree that was calling her for so long, he asked her about her loyalty to him and she said that she would never leave him but at times she will still be called by the tree. That night Arianna’s father snuck back to the tree and chopped it down with an axe, then he took the Amber seed and threw it in a nearby river, all to keep his wife from leaving him. Arianna’s mother knew exactly what he did, she could feel it deep within her that he had killed the tree, Her tree, that was calling her for so long. But she did not lose her love for him, and she made herself believe that it was for her own good that he did what he did. Seasons go by and Arianna’s father carves wood ornaments and furniture for a living, and although Arianna’s mother will only let him take trees that have already fallen by natural causes, he makes a modest living. Arianna’s mother Became pregnant with Arianna during this peaceful time and had her on a cold spring night. Throughout her childhood, she was teased by children for being Adunian, a half-breed, but her parents loved her and her mentors were impressed by her speed and archery skills, learnt mainly from her mother and her father always said that he gave her his eyes and his love for solving problems. Growing up Arianna knew that she was Adunian, but never knew what that truly meant, and so her father let her go on her own journey when she turned seventeen, and during the year away from home she has found out about the clan Elendil, she almost immediately wanted to join their clan, but doesn’t quite know how to ask them if she could join them, she still has a few more years to journey, since she promised her father to come back home when she turns twenty if she hasn’t either found a husband or where she belongs. So for now she is journeying the land, staying slightly close to the Elendil clan, hoping that one day they may notice her, and allow her to join as a Archer, and unless this happens, she may never settle down or get married. Ambitions for the Future: Ari is still young for Adunians, she has a lot of room to grow, but she wishes that she would get the chance to join Clan Elendil as an Archer, and possibly marry, but Ari does not wish to have children, she doesn’t even like the thought of having sex, she wants to stay a virgin for her entire life, and hopes that maybe she will find someone who wishes the same. Personality: Ari, even though she is at the age of being called an adult, she is still very childish, but when you give her a problem or riddle she will work on it until she figures it out, and will hate you if you say the answer. She hates seeing a lot of blood, so she mainly uses a bow, she doesn’t see why some male Adunian warriors like to slash limbs off of their opponents, it just seems unnecessarily messy to her. People call her lazy and too laid-back, but she believes that since you only live once, you shouldn’t work so hard as to become stressed to the point of breaking. Skills: Ari is well-trained with the bow, but during combat she still shakes when she draws her bow, out of ten arrows, around three to four of them will hit their mark. Also at the exact point of letting the arrow go she will close her eyes, not wanting to see if she hit or not till afterwards. (Which is probably why she misses so much) Besides bow she uses two short swords, due to the fact that she is not strong enough to effectively swing a long sword or axe. She is very good at puzzles and figuring out the trajectory of her arrows, or of anything in general. She is also good at card games and has never gotten drunk, she believes that you are just opening yourself up when you get drunk. She is quite fast due to her long legs, but she is equally as unbalanced, she doesn’t see many obstacles while running. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): http://fav.me/d65e7cl Any other details you wish to share about your character: Since she will not marry unless she is most likely accepted as a member Clan Elendil, and the restraints of infertility from her elven side weighs heavily on her, she most likely not have children, which is fine with her. Also she hates killing wild animals or cutting down trees. 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: While looking at the shop’s goods and picking up supplies Arianna notices a dark-clothed figure making his way to the palace ‘This may end up bad, has anyone else noticed him?’ thought Arianna as she looks around at the crowd of people. No one seems to have noticed them, not even the guards stand a few feet away have noticed them yet. Arianna quickly walks up the the guards, not keeping her eyes off of the cloaked figure, and taps one on the should. As he turns towards her, Arianna points towards the cloaked man and says, ”You Guards aren’t that good at, well, guarding are you? That man over there looks suspicious, maybe you should go and talk to him before he gets to the palace?” Arianna said as she looked at the guard, she was about a foot taller than her. Immediately the guard nodded and looked at the cloaked man, he prodded the guard next to him and pointed to the man, they then both walked towards the man. Arianna follows loosely behind them until they stop the cloaked man, which she then turns back around, being pretty sure they had everything covered. ‘I could make a better guard than them’ thought Arianna as she walked back to the shop she was previously browsing at. 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: ‘This is not a good day to be without a bow’ thought Arianna as she walked as quietly as she could up behind the two bandits. It was very difficult to swing the longsword at the men so Arianna held onto the handle and thrusts the blade into the larger man's right leg, right where the back of the knee is, most likely cutting the muscles in his legs. A loud scream erupts from the bandit as he falls to the ground clutching the back of his leg. The other bandit turn towards his friend in shock then notices Arianna standing behind him. Turning towards Arianna the bandit raises his sword in rage, and as he brings it down at Arianna, she turns to the side, getting her arm grazed by the heavy blade. She then lifts the sword and thrusts it at the bandit’s arm that is holding onto the sword. Stabbing him just about the elbow he screams in pain, dropping the sword he clutches onto the wound, falling to his knees while swearing. Arianna then turns her attention to the old man. “Lets get in the house” said Arianna as she steps around the bandits, making sure to grab their weapons, then she takes the old man by the arm and helps him into his house. Closing the door and locking it, Arianna pulls a medium sized wardrobe in front of the door to block it. “That should do it, they won’t be able to get in, and if they broke the window their wounds will slow them down enough so that we could escape” said Arianna. The rest of the day and that night Arianna spent with the old man, listening to his stories, and waiting for the now wounded bandits to leave. 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: Arianna chooses some necessities first of course, she picks out some dried meat and fruit, and some more bandages for wounds as well as healing ointments and some more arrows. “Now, how much will all of this cost?” Asked Arianna. “Hmm, How about 80 minas for all?” Answered the man. “Really? For this stuff? I just saw you sell someone a gem engraved book for 50 minas!” said Arianna, a bit annoyed. “Oh, you saw that? Hmm...Well how about 75 minas and a new quiver? yours is filled with holes and the leather is cracked, plus i got an extra one I need to get off my hands” said the man as he takes out a black leather quiver, its a bit larger and heavier the Arianna’s old one, but she would have to buy twice as many arrows to fill it. “Only if you throw in about ten more arrows with it, I mean, I’ll have to harden the leather myself so that the arrows don’t punch holes in the bottom” said Arianna as she looks the quiver over for defects. “Five arrows and I’ll give you a small can of leather hardener to speed up the process” said the man as he sighs, but then winks at Arianna. “Hmmm, Sure that seems fair” said Arianna as she fishes seventy-five minas out of her pocket, handing them over with her satchel the man puts the other supplies into the satchel then fills up the new quiver with the arrows. after handing them back over, the man waves and says goodbye and Arianna does the same. Later Arianna looks at the quiver again and sets to the task of hardening it with the hardener. taking out the arrows she notices something at the bottom of the quiver, taking it out she makes a little gasp, a small blue gem, possibly sapphire, about half the size of her palm, is now sitting on her lap. ‘The man must of either liked me or accidently placed it in there...hopefully the latter’ thought Arianna as she shudders, remember his face when he winked at her. Deciding to keep it Arianna drops it back into the bottom of the quiver after she had hardened it enough. ‘I’ll have to do something kind for him, maybe kill a wild boar or some thing for him to sell, people love fresh boar meat’ thought Arianna as she shudders at the thought of killing a boar, oh well, it can’t be that hard, can it?
