Definitions
This is simply so that we can get an understanding of how much you know about roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not another website / person's!
What is roleplaying?: Taking the Role of a character in a simulated environment and acting in the manner they would act.
What’s metagaming?: Taking knowledge gathered out of character into RP. For example, knowing a character’s name even though we’ve never spoken.
What’s powergaming?: Well, there is more than 1 type of powergaming. The first, forcing actions on others over making an attempt. The second, making an excessively overpowered and generally perfect character. One that can swim in platemail, or swim in lava, for example.

Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing):
Rein Thersist, son of Hertra Thersist and Gurnig Thersist. His family followed Oren in it’s mass exodus decades ago. At the time, his creation hadn’t even been thought within the skulls of his parents. For some time, Rein’s parents simply followed House Chivay in it’s motions from lands to lands until it eventually settled on a tropical island due far east of Anthos.
For a Decade, the family simply farmed Wheat on the island, having no true significance. Eventually, Rein had been conceived. His younger years were spent as most children. Idle activity about the home. Tending to petty chores and playing with the family hound. At 7 years of age, Rein was sent to an educational facility, as most males of Kaedrin were expected. For 6 years, he tended to a basic education, learning the basics or writing, reading and petty historical lessons.
He’d never truly establish healthy relation with his family, and at the age of 16, his distant cousin made brief appearance. Temp Thersist had been noted as a nearly non-existent man of Kaedrin, simply arriving when called upon and leaving without word. For a week, Temp stayed with the family, giving petty guidance and offering opportunity to move to a land his family only uttered word of in curse. Wanting to break free of the repetitive life presented on the island, Rein spoke of interest in the life presented by Temp. Promising opportunity, Temp left 2 days later without word to either of his parents and he’d only left a small sum of coin.
Years passed without a single word from Temp. It had eventually faded from mind, until a man arrived alongside several others bearing tabards with the marking of a snake consuming it’s tail. They took Rein from his family without so much as a word, and when his parents made efforts to halt the men, they simply restrained the two of them, not caring to give explanation. Rein was taken to a ship, where he’d lived 2 years of his life as it made it’s voyage to lands he’d only known through word as “Oren.” At first, he’d resisted the efforts of the group. Swearing up and down that they’d been brutes, if not pirates, simply stealing him away for ransom. Though, he’d noted to the men several times that his family had precious little money.
Eventually, he’d just accepted the fact that returning home was impossible. He’d been given the petty job of tending to the deck’s appearance during their voyage. After what seemed like forever, the ship halted off the coasts of Anthos. The men took Rein onto the mainland just off of old Kaedrin. They’d begun their journey inland when a strange storm took to Anthos. Panic had set amidst the group when they’d begun a full-on sprint to what was known only to him as the, “Cloud temple.”
Waters rose, without warning and chaos consumed his surroundings. Catching glimpse of a tunnel, he’d descended and kept running until he’d found himself in a strange passage that seemed to stretch on without notable end. As darkness gave way to light, he found himself within a strange temple. The trees, strangely frozen and surroundings entirely unknown. To his surprise, Temp alongside several other men wearing an assortment of tabards had been awaiting his arrival for an unknown amount of time.
What are they like (personality)?: - Stoic, honest, and fairly straightforward. Likes to be alone most of the time. Shows little interest in most situation, but is always available to help a friend to the best of his ability.
What are their ambitions?: - To live a peaceful, easy life.
Do they have any special skills?: - Has a surprisingly high will to live, despite how apathetic he can be.
What are their weaknesses?: - Can be fairly lazy at times, taking naps at almost every chance he can get. Tends to forget things easily, mostly because he either doesn’t care enough to pay attention or gets lost in deep thought, which seems to happen very often.
Give us a description of how they look (not a screenshot yet!)?: - About 5’10, 160 lbs, with short, brown hair and dark brown eyes.
Anything else you want to say about them?: - Very loyal and puts his friends before him.
Please give us a screenshot of your character’s skin: -
I don’t usually make lazy, simple characters like this, but it has been a while so I was hoping to have this one as more of a “practice character,” if that’s alright.
