This can include but is not limited to Ancient times, futuristic (Though not on this server), etc. Meta-gaming: Using information that was learned out-Of-Character whilst in character. For example: I read about the orcs getting a new leader and to use this info when I am rping, would be meta-gaming. Power-emoting: Forcing actions that could have had some different outcome. If I were to say *shoots the orc bandit in the head with his croosbow, this would be power-emoting.

In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Kairn Irongrinder Current Age: 117 Sub-race (if any): None Clan (if any): Irongrinder (A minor clan) Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): When Kairn was born he was the weakest in the family. When ever he did something great his brother Zahrer did something greater. His father had a drinking problem (worse than most dwarves) and had a habit of smoking. He was abusive and often beat the boy leaving bruises and scars. His mother had died during birth and was lain to rest before she could set eyes on her son. Zahrer, his brother, was never beaten or hurt, but he did care for his brother and they went through life picking up Kairn after each incident until finally their father went to the mine one day and never came back. There was a terrible cave-in and it is assumed he died in it. After the death of their father, Zahrer was left as the eldest in the race and took up the mantle as clan leader. He made Kairn and their cousin Tog clan elders and they are all still alive today. When they left Kalos for Anthos, they came together in the great iron-clad and all made it safely. Upon leaving the temple grounds they were separated and Kairn was lost. He came upon random travelers that gave him some food and drink and took him with them to the wilds where he has been since. Ambitions for the Future: Find his lost clan members Personality: Very helpful if he has the time. When angered he is terrifically violent and will often go for the attack rather than the diplomatic side of things. Skills: Good with a sword and decent with a crossbow. He is skilled in carpentry and has spent many years working in the mines to fund his adventurous side.

Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point. ____ 1. Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on. There is a very thin rock bridge that looks precariously unstable, but it is the only way to access the deposit. What do you do? Answer: Kairn looks across at the deposit. His mouth hangs open and a drizzle of drool of visible at the corner of his mouth. He looks over at the bridge and wonders why no one had gone over to the deposit before. As he stands pondering a small pebble chips off the bridge and falls down. It is enveloped by darkness. “Tha's a bit t' dangerous fer meh t' cross 'ere” But as he comes to a conclusin he turns again and his eyes rest on the sparkling blue gemstones. “Feck it” he takes a few steps back and begins to take a running start with his pick in hand. He reachs the edge and takes the leap across swinging his pick up and catching the edge of the ravine wall. The momentum slams him into the wall and he lets one hands fall from the hilt of the pick. “Argghhh” He he begins pulling himself up and slides himself onto the edge. He sits for a while catching his breath. Sitting up he turns to examine the deposit. The diamonds sparkle in the dim light of the torches across the ravine. “Shineh...” 2. You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you is a rather young dwarf whom is clearly going through a bad time. He is crying to himself, and clutching a small wooden hammer toy. In the other corner of the room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally at the dwarf. They stand up, one with a small dagger in his hand and begin to approach the young dwarf. What do you do? Answer: Standing up rather drunkily, he staggers towards where the boy is and sits down there. Eyeing the dwarves, he pretends to take another draft of his ale which has been empty for quite some time. They stop momentarily, then seeing that Kairn is in no state to fight they proceed to walk up and take the wooden hammer toy from the small lad. He tries to fight back and the knife wielding dwarf points it at the boys throat. “ah don' t'ink ye wan' t' do tha' lad”. The boy sits down again silently as tears flood down his face. “Oi!” Kairn shouts and the two dwarves step back surprised “Give 'im 'is toy back ye feckers”. One dwarf begins to laugh and the other one does the same. “Yer guin t' stop meh?” says the knife-dwarf through fits of giggles. Kairn reachs over his head and pulls out the axe that was strapped to his back. “Instantly the two dwarves stop laughing. “Ah'll give yer t' tree t' give 'im back 'is toy” says Kairn. “Un...” and with that the dwarves dropped the toy into the boys lap and make quickly for the door. “AN' DON' COME BACK!” shouts Kairn as he hurls his large pint at the escaping dwarves. 3. Whilst wandering through the Dwarven Caverns you hear a voice call out to you; “Oi, ye’! C’mere n’ get ye’rself an ale!”. You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded bar-owner looking at you - a huge grin on his face, and a mug of ale in his hand. How do you react? Answer: Eying the approaching dwarf Kairn drops his bag and holds out his hands for the ale. “'ere ye gu lad drink up”. Taking a deep draft Kairn enjoys the flavor and quickly finishes the mug. Setting it down he starts to see black spots across his vision, and he begins to feel nauseous. “Wha' was in tha'?” asks Kairn as he slumps to the floor out cold. “Jus' somethin' t' 'elp ye sleep” the bar-owner says as he begins to rifle through Kairn's bag. When Kairn wakes up he notices his bag is torn in halp and his tools are scattered about him. In the midst of all he notices his minas are all gone and he is missing his map of the area. “Great” Says Kairn “Now ah'm lost an' broke...feck”
