In this situation he must draw it from himself, which takes a bit of time and it leaves him feeling weak afterwards. [color=00aeef]Age:[/color] Eighteen [color=00aeef]Personality:[/color] Cardlin is normally described as a kind and caring individual. He tends to put others needs before his own and won't hesitate to help someone if he feels they are in need of assistance. Cardlin has a stubborn streak and will not budge if he sets his mind to something. He's not one to anger easily but once he is watch out because he can have quite the temper and is not afraid to give you a piece of his mind. Another trait of Cardlin's is that he has a bad habit of bottling up his problems so the people around him will not worry. Even if he is having the worst day imaginable he will still put on a smile and say everything is fine. [color=00aeef]Skills:[/color] What he lacks for in physical strength, he makes up for it in agility and flexibility. Cardlin is quite nimble and quick on his feet. People are taken aback sometimes at just how nimble he is, especially after they see him climbing with ease and back and front flipping over things. The modern word for this is Parkour/Free-Running. He is also able to run far distances without becoming short of breath. He prefers a bow over a sword and is fairly adept at shooting. He also has a keen ear that is useful when tracking or hunting. [color=00aeef]Fears:[/color] ~ Being a burden to those he cares for ~ Not being able to protect those he cares for [color=00aeef]Likes:[/color] ~ Watching the sun rise from the trees ~ Swimming ~ Helping out [color=00aeef]Equipment:[/color] ~ Long-bow with a quiver of arrows ~ Flint for making fires ~ Rope, never know when it would be needed [color=00aeef]Biography:[/color] Cardlin's father works as a Carpenter for the village, carving woodwork that is used when building houses and such. His expectation is for his son to take over after he is gone but that isn't exactly in line with what Cardlin wants for himself. While he wants to make his father proud, sitting in a stuffy wood surrounded by wood shavings that made him sneeze just doesn't appeal to him. He prefers to be out in the forest where he can run and climb. Sitting still made him too restless, he only felt at home within the forest. His younger brother shows more interest in the family business and Cardlin would be perfectly happy letting his brother take over when he was old enough. [/center][/hider]
