Delete this afterwards. Please use realistic (photo) pictures, or a semi-realistic drawn picture of high quality. If using a modern photo, I expect you to simply use it for the face and then add on your own dress style below.

Never the less it's vital, and can help to explain certain parts of your character.

[/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields/char#post-2737968]Laurence Attewood[/url] ~-~ Laurence is a man whose body is covered with the creations of steel fighting flesh. Sadly for him, the flesh seems to have lost most of the time. In return he gains a powerful visage, added to by his impressive laugh. [b] TJ Byrum. [/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields/char#post-2739609]Warren Wyk[/url] ~-~ the Redsand butcher is a renowned swordsman and can kill with an eating knife. Atleast, that's what the legends say supposedly. But how much can an unhealthy, former Blackblade do? And is he truly loyal to king and queen, or is he still vengeful for what happened those many years ago at the Hoffburgt? [b] Dreaming Flowers [/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields/char#post-2740003]Floure Camlo[/url] ~-~ Woman of pleasure, Floure has to have a certain charm if she wishes to survive in the cold, desolate life that is that of a camp follower. But she is here for a good reason, namely to avoid persecution after she used her tricks and body reading techniques on a priest, who was so astonished by what this beautiful girl knew of him and his vile deeds, that he wished to deal with her in a similarily vile way. Perhaps the warband will take pity on her.. [b] Renny [/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields/char#post-2749649]Saewine E. Bloodworth[/url] ~-~ Not a warrior, Saewine was sent by his father to fight in his brothers stead after an unfortunate death at the hand of numerous archers. How long will he last in the horrors that are war? [b] Corin Traven [/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields-always-open/char#post-2792291]Sara Medved[/url] ~-~ Sara is a girl that has seen the tragedies of war over and over again, and with a protective father like Nikolas, has never really gotten to experience the true meaning of womanhood. However, will her father even allow her such a thing? And surely all the looks the soldiers give her, atleast.. as long as they know her father isn't around, surely that spiked something inside her? It remains to be seen how this young girl on the verge of coming of age will deal with it all. [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields-always-open/char#post-2792696]Alycia Medved[/url] ~-~ Alycia is the younger sister of Sara, but unknown to the world is that she is only the half-sister. Never the less she is treated like a full member of the family both by Sara and Nikolas and is protected just as much as Sara is. Did I mention she likes to swear, because she does. But only when daddy ain't around. [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields-always-open/char#post-2792696]Nikolas Medved[/url] ~-~ Nikolas Medved is one of the captains in the Black Shields, and also of noble blood (though, he is none the less not as influential as his brother, who lords over a village.) He guards his two daughters with his life, but that may end up being more than they care for. Time will tell.. [b] Kho [/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81933-marches-of-man-the-black-shields-always-open/char#post-2806835]Horath Evren Al'Montsar[/url] ~-~ Some say he's an honorable knight, and he'd likely agree. This man fights with honour although his ideas are questionable at times. The true question is if he will be faithful to his kingdom, his king, despite the fact that the peasants lead a less luxurious life. Such is the way of the Monarch, but will Horath agree to that?
