Great guide!

Lorik walks around Kralta, looking at his almost-healed wounds from the Drowned. He pictures in his mind the event that occurred not to long ago, where the Drowned attacked. He remembers himself sitting by the water, when a slimy hand scrapped his thigh, then dragged him into the water. It bit his hand right after. Lorik thought that it was the end, until Lissa rescued him and saved his life.

Okay, listen up FMs. You have one shot to make everything good. Should you fail, I WILL HARVEST YOUR SOUL AND FEED IT TO THE DROWNED. I kid, I kid. But seriously, congtratz to all the new FMs!

Lorik smiles while reading the poster because of the fact that he knows Lark is finally advertising a bit and will gain that good amount of customers Lark deserves.

Lorik looks at the poster about the labor force and sees that fishermen will not be accepted. He sighs, having all hope lost at this point. Lorik turns his head to see a note about the Kraltan Blacksmith looking for an apprentice, which he right away knows is Lark. He figures he might ask Lark since his fishing days are delayed for now.

Lorik reads the sign put on a tree. He frowns, then sighs, knowing he won't last too long now since he cannot fish and that is his profession.

((My character died during this epic battle :(. I love what you named it. When I posted screenshots of it, I just named it "The Undead Attack of Abresi" hehe.

((Both the wedding and this post are EPIC))

Lorik smiles at the sound of a wedding taking place which he is invited too. He goes to his hovel back in Kralta and prepares.

((We gotz to know what time it takes place!))

Lorik looks at the poster and sees that an upcoming festival is coming soon. "Aye, I will go to that," he mumbles to himself. "There needs to be a festival every once and a while to lighten up the mood in Anthos with all these brutal wars." Lorik takes out a small book, a jar of ink and a quill from his satchel and begins writing about the festival while walking home to remind himself to go.

Amazing guide! You just inspired me to make my character a cook! I think I might make a new character who's profession is cooking. But anyway, thank you for making this!

I am honestly fine with this decision. But, I know for a fact that there is going to be a player decrease because of too much PvP.

Lorik stares at the what seems to be thousands of dead Men, Dwarves, Orcs, and Khas. He mumbles to himself about what could have been, "If none of that killing crap 'appened, this might not 'ave occured... But what be done be done. Hopefully all this nonsense can come to an end so they don't 'aste more soldiers." Lorik sighs, as he continues on the path heading towards his home of Kralta.

*Lorik notices Hunwald shouting about the destruction of Kingston and walks over to him, then signs the petition with a smirk on his face*

In-Character Information: Complete the following biography on your character: Full Name: Darazor Edain Current Age: 24 Sub-race (if any): Human Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Darazor Edain had a very normal and nice childhood. He was born in a small village near Seventis. He has always wanted to travel the world of Anthos because his father's tales fascinated him. Darazor's family was wealthy because his father was the only blacksmith in the village. His mother did not work because she did not need to, so she cared for their home. During Darazor's youth he learned to hunt animals and forge basic weapons on his father's forge. In present time, he is a very good archer. But, for some reason his skill of swordsmanship was always bad. So, Darazor uses his bow as his main weapon. Because of his father's wealth as a blacksmith, Darazor could get any type of toy he desired. But, Darazor loved the art of archery. His father noticed this at when Darazor was 9. So, when he became 10 years old, Darazor was presented his first bow. He practiced every day on dummies that were stuffed with hay and had old clothes put on. A few monthes later the local butcher noticed his skill and decided to hire him to hunt animals. Darazor enjoyed it very much and did not even ask for a single coin from the butcher. 5 years later Darazor became very tired of using only one weapon to hunt. So, Darazor asked his father to forge him a sword. He was crafted one of the most fine swords with a beautiful handle and sharp tip. But when Darazor began to practice, he just could not get the same feeling and emotion he did when he used the bow. Darazor decided to skip the practice and just work for the butcher again. Once he begun, he could not kill a single animal for the butcher. Darazor had a very strong weakness using a sword, so he gave up. He went right back to what he was good at which was using a bow. After 9 years, Darazor was already at the age of 24 and a man. By this time, he was an unbelievably amazing archer. Darazor knew that he could protect himeself so he planned a trip to explore Anthos. He would begin heading west to the Elven lands, then south to the Dwarf lands. While there Darazor would study the way the Elves and Dwarfs live. But before Darazor could start to pack, he thought he felt a small earthquake. He was wrong. A large group of Orcs were marching towards his village. Darazor ran to notify all the able bodied men to prepare for an Orc attack. He also notified the women and children to head to the underground level of the Village Hall. When the Orcs arrived Darazor was in shock. Every single Orc was fully armoured and fully armed. He was outnumbered as well. Without hesitation Darazor ran to Seventis for help. When he arrived Darazor told the Head Guard that he needed help because Orcs were attacking his village. Lucky enough, the guard agreed to send men. When Darazor and the guards arrived, he could tell that his village was losing men faster than the speed of light. Then, one by one, the Orcs died by the hands of the guards. Darazor believed that his village had a chance because of them. About an hour later, Darazor was right. Every Orc dead and only a few guards dead. When the guards went back to Seventis, everyone remaining carried the bodies to the cemetary for burial. Darazor felt something strange while he was doing this. He wondered where his father was. Darazor went to his house to find that no one was home besides his mother. Then, he saw it. His father was on the ground dead with a Orcish sword in his heart. Darazor was speechless. He did not know what to do besides take the sword out carry him to the cemetary. The next day, a funeral was held. The whole village mourned for days. Darazor was strong and his father's death did not change his desicion about his journey. He packed basic things, his bow, said goodbye to everyone and went off to explore. This is where Darazor is today. Ambitions for the Future: Darazor seeks to explore the world and study other races' cultures. He does not think this is a top priority but wants to find a good place to live and start a blacksmith business to continue his father's legacy. He is not really interested in starting a family but is thinking about it. Personality: Darazor is very strong mentally and pysically. He has a very warm heart but is not afraid to kill only if necessary. Darazor will also help anyone at anytime. Skills: Darazor is very skilled with the bow but very weak with the sword. The bow has always been his weapon of choice. He is also slightly skilled in smithing. Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin): Any other details you wish to share about your character: No. I believe I discussed everything in the biography. 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: Darazor knows that he needs to do something. He also knows not to confront the figure because who knows what he could have beneath his clothes. So, Darazor goes around a few buildings to avoid being seen and runs to a guard. "That man is heading to the palace. He looks up to no good! Stop him!" Darazor would say. The guards would then stop the man to find out that he was a hired assassin, hired to kill the Emperor. Darazor would be rewarded for his good deed. 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: Because of Darazor's lack of skill for the sword, he would take his bow out. Darazor then notices a tree right next to one of the bandits. He shoots the tree to grab their attention. "You shouldn't be threatening that man you bandit scum!" says Darazor. While he has their attention, Darazor would shoot one of the bandits in the leg so it does not kill him and then takes a risk of using the longsword on the next one. The next bandit grabs out an axe. Darazor is the first one to strike. The bandit counters with a swing that luckily misses. The axe gets stuck in a tree after the next avoided swing. With the bandit trying to grab the axe out, Darazor takes out some rope from his bag and ties the bandit's hands together. Darazor brings the bandit to the nearest city and sends him to the dungeon. After going back to the forest, Darazor does the same to the other bandit which he shot in the leg. The feeble old man then thanks him for his courage and offers him a reward. Darazor refuses though because he would not want an alone old man to waste perfectly good money on nothing. 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: Although it is not a very good thing to do, Darazor says ok and looks at his selection. While looking, Darazor starts a conversation with the man. They talk about basic things in life. Soon, they discuss more personal topics. The man thinks of Darazor as an aquaintance and offers him a free item. Darazor accepts and picks more arrows for his bow. Next, Darazor selects some food and offers 10 Minas. The man accepts and the deal is made. Just when Darazor is about to leave, he realizes that he needed some more rope and camping tools for if he ever has to camp in the forest. He takes a lot of material and offers 20 Minas. The man accepts and once again, another deal is made. Darazor thanks the man and leaves.

In-Character Details Darazor Edain was a son of a blacksmith when he was little. He is very skilled in forging and can fight with a sword and bow. Now, he is 28 years old with his father dead because of orcs and a mother who still lives in the village he grew up in. Character Name: Darazor Edain Character Race: Human Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary: Darazor Edain is 28 years old and is very brave, has a very well understanding of different races and has a very warm heart but is not afraid to kill if necessary. Darazor had a very normal childhood. He had a mother and a father. His father was a blacksmith and his mother stayed at home and cared for the house. During Darazor's youth, he learned to forge and hunt. In present times, he is a master swordsman and archer. Because of his father's wealth as the only blacksmith in the village, Darazor could get any type of toy he desired. But, Darazor loved the act of archery. When he was 10, Darazor was given his first bow, He practiced every day on dummies made of leather and stuffed with hay. Soon he was taught to hunt wild animals with his bow from a butcher who was an excellent archer. 5 years later, Darazor was so good of an archer, every shot he took struck the animal straight in the eye. Darazor eventually got tired of the bow and moved on to the sword. Like I said before, because of his father's wealth, Darazor was crafted one of the most fine swords with a beautiful handle and sharp tip. Darazor practiced with the dummies just like he did with the bow. But to keep his steady aim, Darazor still practiced with his bow for half of the time. He still continued forging in his spare time. After 6 years, Darazor was already at the age of 21 and a man. By this time, he became the village's only protector when needed. Darazor was fully trained in the skill of forging, swordsmanship and archery. He decided that he wanted more out of life. So, Darazor prepared for a trip to explore the world. But before he could start packing a large group of orcs attacked the village. Darazor was deciding which direction to head when he thought he felt a small earthquake. He was wrong. Darazor soon saw the orcs heading towards him. He ran back to the village to grab his bow and sword. He then notified all the able bodied men to prepare for an orc attack. When the orcs finally arrived they were fully armored and difficult to kill. Darazor killed more than half with his sword and did not get the chance to use his bow yet. Right when he was getting the arrow to shoot an orc he saw his father get struck in the abdominal with an axe. Darazor ran to his father but soon realized that it was to late. He was furious. Darazor went blood drunk. He struck one orc in the foot and left it there. Then he took his bow and shot the same orc multiple times, Finally, he took his sword back and went to the next orc. Darazor dodged every sword, axe and bow that went towards him and kept completely destroying the orcs. After every single orc was killed, Darazor saw that no man survived. The only ones left were the women and children that were safe in the underground level of a castle close by. So, seeing that he was the only man, Darazor had to...repopulate. There was a funeral held for all the men that helped in the battle. 7 years later the children that survived that attack were men and had restored the village to it's former self. Now, Darazor has a beard, mustache, brown eyes and mildly short brown hair. He took over his father's business but soon gave it to someone else. Darazor now had the chance to explore like he wanted to 7 years ago. So, he packed food, some tools, his bow and his sword. Then he set off, not having any idea what to expect. And that is where is today in present time. What are your characters ambitions?: Darazor seeks to explore the world going to each race's homelands and study how they live and their cultures. One of his ambitions that he seeks but does not really think it is a top priority is finding a good place to live and start a blacksmith business. He is not really interested in starting a family but is thinking about it. Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here: Is there anything else you would like to say about your character: Although Darazor is not educated, he still knows proper etiquette and is always helpful and kind. Open-Response-Questions Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short. Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response? Because of Darazor being in need of supplies after a long journey, he gladly buys a lot of what the dwarf has in stock. While doing so he starts a conversation. Darazor begins asking where he is from and what his name is and they soon go on to very detailed topics such as their childhoods, family, what they want to do in life and other things. After an enjoyable conversation, Darazor gives the dwarf an extra large bag of Minas and says "I do not want you to refuse. You seem like a very kind and hard working person who deserves this. Please take it." You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do? Darazor would say "Hey you ugly Orc! Over here! Why don't you come here and fight me!" While it comes towards him he grabs his sword but does not pull it out to intimidate it. When the Orc is close enough Darazor would yell to the dwarf, "Run! I can handle this Orc!" The Orc then becomes distracted by the running dwarf and Darazor pulls his sword out and stabs the Orc right in the heart. (Darazor would not have killed the orc if it had not been threatening the dwarf at first.) Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?: Although grabbing the bag is tempting, Darazor knows that it is not the right thing to do. Darazor helps the old man up and walks with him making sure not to let go to a nearby tree where he spots a branch. He then walks the man over to the tree and tells him to hold on to it. When he knows that the old man is safe, Darazor takes out a knife and carves the branch into a walking stick. Darazor then walks over to the man and walks him to the road and hands him the new stick. The man thanks him and gives him one coin.
