It may take a while for me to finish this, so I'll put it here unfinished and edit is as I go (better that way than having to start all over every time). [hider=(under construction)] [b]Name:[/b] Annabelle Tyler [b]Race/Faction:[/b] The Peasants' Army [b]Age:[/b] 23 [b]Description:[/b] A well-constructed description totaling five sentences and a picture. Preferably a realistic one, however, if you can't find one you like animation is tolerable. If you would prefer to use just written description this is acceptable, just be certain to use two well-written paragraphs to describe your character. I should have some form of mental image for this character. [b]"Class":[/b] Are you a warrior? A mage of some form? Just a regular citizen dragged into a cesspit of a political drama? [b]Motivation:[/b] Annabelle wants to erase anything royal and aristocratic from Tricaelia and turn it into a republic. [b]History:[/b] Annabelle is a freeholder, a peasant who owns her own land and is not bound to nobles through rent (tenants) or serfdom (serfs). Tylers are well respected in their home village and generations of Tylers have acted as Sheriffs. In fact the current Sheriff is Annabelle's older brother Sebastian. But times are hard in Tricaelia to be a peasant, as the nobles become greedier and more debauched. More and more tenants are evicted from their households for being unable to pay their ever increasing rents, and serfs are forced to endure worsening humiliations at the hands of the nobles who are supposed to protect them. Freeholders aren't untouched either, as the royal court increases their taxes and declares other laws. Last year Tylers were forced to demolish their mill, when it was declared that only nobles were allowed to own mills. What is your past? What are you running from? What are you trying to save? Or destroy? Is your background noble? Common? Who are you and what makes you, you? [b]Strengths:[/b] 3-5 Strengths of your character. Personal, physical, or mental. [b]Weakness:[/b] 3-5 Weaknesses your character possesses. Personal, physical, or mental. [b]What is the most important thing to know about your character?[/b] [b]What is your character's greatest flaw?[/b] Annabelle has a very black and white View of the world. Everything for her is either/or, and there is no middle ground. [b]Why should your character be in a position to influence an entire country?[/b] Nobles were supposed to protect the commoners, not threaten them. They don't see common folk as people, only as annoyances to ignore at best, toys to play with until they break at worst. Peasants don't need nobles making their lives hard. Tricaelia must be ruled by the commoners for the commoners. One paragraph writing example of dialogue or interaction with another character plus a second paragraph writing example of combat. If your character is a non-combatant (i.e. specializes in healing) use whatever specialization that character would have for the second paragraph.
