Current Nothing beats the feeling you get when you find an RP that's amazing.

Will likely not be able to post for quite some time in my current roleplays - If I do it'll be very slow and staggered, sorry guys this is only temporary.

@BurningColdThe character was basically accepted, it was very minor additions needed for Mr.Schaft.
I appreciate your enthusiasm Cold, but leave the Gming to the Gms.

Valentis looked in wonder at the number of people picking up their arms to stop the hordes of oblivion, moments ago this small Imperial woman stated that she would attempt to close the gate, albeit in a rather demeaning manner, and upon hearing this claim from someone as young and small as herself, others took up the call.
The other man in the room who had a dog, the paladin, even the girl that looked unfit for any form of combat...
And yet, here he sat.

Valentis has lived a long life; he has no legacy barring perhaps being one of the most prominent Akaiviri scholars in the era, to die quietly, seemed unfitting.
Why, would he let these young people lay down their lives for the greater good without at least trying to do so himself, he may be old but with his age came considerable experience, knowledge and skill.
He was no stranger to combat and could fight better than most, Valentis would offer what little life he could to this cause, it may be a fools errand by the lot of them to walk into the depths of hell itself, but they could at least try.

With a bit of difficulty in his joints from being stationary for so long Valentis stood up, leaning slightly on his staff.
After straightening himself he walked over to the group by the doors; with Albert at his heel, - which inevitably lead to the chaos outside
Valen spoke out to them, his voice was soft and calm, but it held a stern undertone, one filled with conviction and confidence.

"Excuse me, I am Valentis Fenotorai; I have been listening and watching to what you have all done and said - I must say, even in my old age, I cannot sit by and allow you all to march into the gates of hell alone - with what will my old bones have in them, consider them dedicated to the task at hand."
After noticing a few incredulous glances and looks towards him he continued.
"Don't let the looks of an old man fool you; I have braved the ancient and hostile lands of Akaivir and returned, what I have learned from those people has proven invaluable, I am a skilled warrior mage who can still give his all in a fight to the death.
Regardless of what you say, I am coming, on principle alone of nothing else."

Giving a slight nod to his companion followed by giving his head a ruffle he stated "Even my friend here can offer some assistance, he's quite the scout, his nose and ears are something that have warned me of a danger long before it comes into sight - in the unknown that is on the other side of that gate out there, surely all the help we can get will be needed."

Albert gave a happy bark to back Valen up on his points, it's been a long time since he had explored the unknown, and in his mind it was something that he originally started leaving that fortress for in the first place - turns out he got what he wanted.
If not the most extreme level of the unexpected.
@BurningColdI apologise for some of the things I said in my post, I was being overly critical and nitpicky, I've got a character planned that works against my own Genteics argument so it's an irrelevant point and one I shouldn't have brought up.
I apologise for that.

Anyway, that aside, we will be keeping a close eye on how you handle combat; fists are good but extremely limiting in what you can reasonably do- looking forward to him being played.
@LexiconSorry about that; time zones and shiz.
The keep isn't underground, think of Lordan on top of a large cliff, looking down upon the ground where the keep is - if you looked up outside, you'd see Lordan in all it's glory.
@BurningColdOkey doki.
I understand that Mister Fisticuffs was trained in the arena; doesn't really explain how he understands much in terms of any form of combat other than those with his fists, he was taught how to beat the crap out of his opponents, nothing suggests that he was taught how to use a shield, blade or hammer.
In terms of the Argonian himself, I don't mind a brawler, it will be a nice change to be honest, but a 6'5 Argonain, who's built more than an Orc?
Nope.
Training and effort can take you far; but only as far as your genetics allow, inevitably that is the ultimate barrier that is impossible to surpass.
It'd be exceptionally rare for an Argonian to be that height, and those who are far taller than normal in ones race, tend to suffer for it - a freakishly tall human is around 6'7, and their joints pay hell for that fact, as well as other numerous issues.
Lower the height to a max of 6'2 and I'll be satisfied; otherwise keep the height and add drawbacks.
In terms of bulk, Argonians are known for their agility and swiftness in battle - regardless of how long they train and bulk themselves up, an Orc who's done the same will always win in a contest of strength, as will a Nord, Redguard and possibly even an Imperial and Dunmer; the races typically renowned for their strength, if going from genetics alone.
Skill can make up for a lot, but an Argonaians natural speed and agility will play massively into their combat styles, regardless of what it is - I'm happy for him fight with bare fists; but be aware that you will not rely on pure strength alone against opponents in the roleplay, because training aside, you will not be physically stronger than a dremora in full plate, or a Daedroth I look forward to how you will handle certain opponents in the roleplay with a pure brawler, but equally I will keep a close eye on how realistic you write the outcomes.

On to realism as my finally point.
You have fought in the arena for years, with naught but your fists, and have only a single scar to show for it.
No.
Just.
No.
I'm aware that you said that scales regrow hiding most of the scarring, but the scales that are thick and can act as any form of real defence are those found on the Spinal column, back of the neck up around the back of the skull, as well as around the shoulder blades and the posterior and hand and feet - otherwise the scales are basically nonexistent and offer very little protection; considering that you typically fight someone by facing them, most of your scarring and wounds would occur in unscaled or small scaled areas.
You want be someone who takes their fists to a sword fight, you are damn well gunna have a liturgy of scars to show for it; they will always have range on you, and the dumbest opponent is aware of that fact, as such you need to close the gap to fight at all, you will have gained scars in this fighting style, for there is only one path to your opponent, and that's through their weapon.

Wait till the gm has said anything on this before making any changes.
Boop
@LexiconThink of Farron keep as a fortress; it's essentially a large castle that holds all of the warriors, supplies, aids etc - their base of operations and a place you will spend a decent bit of time at.
Currently working on a entry in the OOC for it.
IC is finally up!
Praise the sun!
Anyway peeps, you can now do your introductory posts, sorry for being so tardy :/
Things are going great, sort of...
Anyway, I'm doing the IC right now, because you shouldn't suffer from my tardiness.
You can all make your introductions soon ^_^
