Channelknight Fadran Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 My character... uhh... FELIX. Felix did, uhm... *Ahem* Felix hopped up on top of a largish boulder and looked over his force of one hundred men: mostly dirty mercenaries, but with some good roman blood in there. They all raised their fists and cheered, if only for the paycheck he was offering them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She decided she would enter, so that she could try to bargain for some supplies and shelter. She nudged her horse forward, and headed over. You can see no one but Kalarius and his horse. As you enter the town he calls out to you. "Hail, soldier. Are you a scout of Odoacer?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to suck at this so bad, and it is going to be really funny. She shook her head. "I am but a traveler looking for a place to tarry for a short time, so that I may rest."

Crime was bad enough that I wasn't allowed to walk down the street without supervision. According to the internet, 1/19 of the population is the victim of a crime. People got kidnaped in the middle of the day in front of the local high school once. And one of the teachers promoted porn. It was really, really, really bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Ajah Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 Quote Here's my character. Name: Not sure if it's male, but Athanaric. Appearance: Standard visigoth, white skinned, black haired. He has a straight mustache, but no beard. He is also pretty strongly built. Skills: Pretty good mercenary as he is strong, but he's also a good thief when he needs to be. For some inexplicable reason he can play the accordion. Personality: He's a joker and a trickster, but can be quite serious when he needs to be. He tends to heavily look down upon women. For some reason, he never steals from his employer, even if it wouldn't hurt him at all and would benefit him greatly. Backstory: This will be very simple because I don't want to spend any too much time in Google. His parents died when he was a child, which gave him his thieving talents. When he got old enough he started working and eventually became a mercenary. Whenever he's on hard times, he he would steal, so he's been able to stay alive over the years. He's in his late forties. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
