Full Name: Zenophon of the North
Current Age:18
Sub-race (if any): Northerner
Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): I was born
Zenophon, my mother and father were poor innkeepers, along an pathway north of the mountains. We lead a simple life, tending to the occasional traveler and explorer. When I was 13 years old, I was
woken in the middle of the night by my mother screaming for my father. A man
who had often stayed at our inn was bloodied and ragged, telling my mother and
father to lock all the doors and board the windows. After a few hours, he
calmed down and he told us his story.He had been exploring along the coast,
when he saw a great fleet of ships sailing for the horizon to the south. He
said they bore the crest of a place called Aegis. He marveled at the ships
until they disappeared over the horizon. He skipped on to when he was attacked.
The “ Bohras” as he called them, disgusting savage creatures, half boar and half human, attacked him on his wayto our inn, not far from the ocean. He was wounded, but able to fight them off
long enough to make it too our inn. His emotions were getting the best of him
and my mother put him and I to bed.
I awoke to the sound of my mother calling for me down stairs, and a horrible
grunting/scratching noise came from outside our inn. My mother shoved two loaves of
bread into my arms, and pushed me into the wellpit below our kitchen. She told
me to runa s fast as I could. . After escaping the inn, i climbed out of the
well, about 100 yards from the inn, and saw horrible creatures breaking in the
door, and setting fire to the inn. I ran as fast as I could to the south.5 long hard years later, I came upon the crossing of the mountains;
i was confronted with my greatest task. After numerous confrontations with
the Bohra, i realized i must move on from the wasteland around the mountains
where I had been living for years, and resolved to travel south. After moving
even farther south, i came upon a great sea, and an icy forest. I decided that
crossing the sea was a better idea than taking my chances with the Bohra and
remembered the story of the man who died with my parents, great ships traveling
toward the horizon. That will be my goal, to find those people. After the canoe
was thrown together, i ventured out into the great sea, with the idea that any
land would be better than the icy wasteland from which i had come. Before knew
it, a swift wind and rough sea started and my canoe was tattered and destroyed.
Although i had learned to swim as a boy, i was quickly overpowered and sucked
under.When i awoke, i was face down in the sand, in the middle of the night, and was happy to be alive. I
had arrived in the land of Anthos.Ambitions for the Future: To become an explorer for a generous

____
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 doyou do?
Answer: I walk toward the figure and shout, “ Sir!
Stop!” The figure turns and flees, “Guards, Stop him!” I yell. I run after the
figure, as he begins to run down an alley. I realize I could cut him off if I
use a short cut, utilizing my knowledge of the city layout. “Guards, stay on
his tail!” I turn to run down a perpendicular alley, ducking under cloth lines
and vaulting over a low wall, landing on top of the hooded figure. Gold spills
across the street and a dagger clatters to the ground. “Guards, arrest this
man, I recognize the dagger as an assassins.” The assassin responds, “you scum,
you haven’t heard the last of us!” as the guards lead him away. A third guard
turns to me and thanks me for my help, “ Thank you citizen for all you have
done” I respond, “ Anything for the empire and the emperor” Now I must remember to watch my back, they may come for me next…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: I confidently stride into the view of the bandits, “Leave here vermin, and never return, lest
you taste my blade.” The bandits turn to face me and decide not to risk
fighting a large imposing stranger, “We won’t spill your blood here today, but
rest assured, we will be back” and spit on the ground in my direction, before
melting back into the woods. “Dear sir, what could they have possibly wanted
with you way out here?” The old man sits on a stump outside his doorstep and
sighs, “There is a rumor going around that I have a vast fortune in gold, from
my days as a tax collector for the king.” “I was accused of stealing from him,
and I was out casted to here.” He looked at the ground, clearly ashamed and
placed his hands over his face. I took pity and said, “ Sir, when I reach the
next city, I will make sure the proper authorities know about these wild
bandits, they will be taken care of. Also, I will check up on you from time to time
when I pass this way, never be afraid of them, but get a good sturdy lock for
your door.” “Good day” I walk away from the house, in the direction of the
nearest city to report the bandits.
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 haggleand choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).Answer: I see that the merchant has items that could
be useful to my journey as an explorer for the king, but I must be cautious, my
purse is light. “Hello Merchant, how are you on this fine day? I am here to
purchase some wares, at the right price, of course” he responds, “Well if we
can agree on a price, the item is yours.”
I nod my head in a agreement and carefully examine a compass he has, that
was hanging along with other novelty items, and discover that it is extremely
valuable. “How much for this compass sir?” he responds, “oh that old thing? I’ve never had an offer on it; I can’tremember where I bought it. What about 10?”
the compass was easily worth 100, and I couldn’t swindle the merchant
out of his rightful money, “ It is worth at least 50, here.” I hand the
merchant 50, he says, “sir, I cannot thank you enough for your honesty. Here
take this” He hands me a brand new sword, of the finest metal and elegance.
Worth at least 1000, “ I could not take this!” he replies, “ please, it is hard
to find an honest person, and a on the rare occasion one presents themselves,
they must be rewarded. And besides, what do I need with a sword? I’m only a
merchant.” With this gracious gesture, I turn and leave with my new sword and
compass, saying, "Bless you sir, i will be back often to haggle again!"
