    Hey, you guys still need new players? And hey Kir, do you remember ole Hermy?

    Yes, we're still taking applications for one open character spot. If you're interested, just make sure you've looked over the original post thoroughly, and use the template provided to submit yours. We'd love to have a new member. :D

    Also if need be I already thought of a situation I could establish that would point our glorious rebellion in the right direction to Kir if you wish :p
     
    Name: Alphonse el Valiente
    Race: Redguard
    Sex: Male
    Age: 36
    Position: Man-at-arms
    Birthplace: Hammerfell
    Residence: N/A
    Alliances or affiliations: El Valiente family
    Occupation: Soldier-for-hire, public speaker
    Appearance: Medium build, not very muscular. Has short black hair usually carelessly swiped to one side. Though he is a Redguard, his skin is quite pale in comparison to his brothers, though he would still look tan to the average Imperial. Usually wears rich garbments, embroidered with a yellow castle on a red field.

    Fighting style & equipment: Alphonse takes to the field of battle on a lightly armored swift brown horse called Tatar. He is lightly armored himself as well, preferring to throw javelins at his enemies from a distance while protecting himself with a kite shield rather than meeting his foe man-to-man. He is very nimble, though, and if required he can deal some damage at close range.

    Biography: Alphonse is the heir to a noble House of Hammerfell, called 'Castille'. As a nobleman, he lived his life quite peacefully, marrying a woman from another Noble family at the age of 16, and fathered a daughter called Urraca el Valiente a year later. As a nobleman, he of course had combat training as a boy and continued in his later years. A man naming himself Graziano el Valiente claimed to be the rightful heir of Castille, though, and due to a forged document Alphonse and his family were evicted from the lands. Alphonse could not rest easily though, and used his abundance of money to buy a home for his wife and daughter, and set out looking for the real inheritance documents, leading him to all the important cities of Tamriel. When he arrived in Skyrim, however, the Aldmeri Dominion attacked. Alphonse had offered his weapons to a corrupt thane of Skyrim, who sold him out to the Dominion and almost got him killed. Alphonse decided to keep out of the war, and evade the Dominion.

    Sample:
    Glass sat hunched on his horse, a heavy white cloak around his shoulders. It did not keep the cold out well, but anything was better than nothing at all to brave the cold wilderness of Skyrim. His horse had crusted ice and snowflakes in its white mane, not very visible but cold to the touch. The shield that was on the lone knight's left arm had a layer of rock-hard ice on it as well, a result from letting it lay outside while the glass man slept. It was heavier than it had any right to be, he thought.

    Through the fog, he saw lights. The knight was in need of a warm place, he knew, but in his condition he could not take on a band of robbers. The choice was a hard one, but finally the need of a warm bed took the upper hand, and the frozen warhorse got urged forward once again by the knight's spurs. When he came within a few metres of the building, he could make out a sign through the dense fog. Nightgate Inn, the sign said. The knight was in luck.

    He put his horse in the stables, looking for a stableboy but not finding one. Of course not, it is too cold for visitors, the knight thought while opening a sack of oats and throwing a thick blanket which was laying about over the horse. The blanket was horsehair, he did not fail to notice.

    When he stepped inside, he was surprised to see another traveller. The warmth was nice, and he sat down opening a pouch of septims. "I'll have a tankard of mead and a haunch of meat," He announced. "I have stabled my horse as well."

    Ok not trying to be that "guy" but Ive read in a couple places (that shall not be mentioned) that you were going to be leaving the forums after your stories where transfered over to another site (which also shall not be mentioned)... so my question is why would someone be accepting someones app if they are going to be gone? or where you lying about leaving?

    The nature of this story is so intriguing, and the type of character soul searching that I was looking for, that I am willing to make a exception for it. But I feel there is more to why I might not be included. That's the history between several of us and EWM.

    I hope I can assure you I have moved on from the angry hurry up and post kind of person I used to be. I have made real effort to change my ways and to improve as a writer, and as a person. I hope that is evident. I would really like to write with all of you.


    edited 12/19 just so you realize I am not putting Bruynzeel up for consideration Samuel is the character I would bring.

    Before I apply how often do I need to get on a day. Also I'm new to role playing kinda I'm 23 and haven't done this since um 6th grade or so so was wondering if i do get accepted if i can get a tutored a little.

    I'm back, bitches
    Bloodhawk, I do have to ask. Did you read the requirements for the RP? Everything is explained in the very first post Andante made that is at the top of each page. :)

    I would suggest taking part in a different RP first so that you can develop your skills a bit before applying to this RP. :) I'm sure in time you'll become a great writer, but the selection process for this RP has very high standards, with writers who have developed their skill through time and taking part in other RPs. I say this only since you have not RPed in quite some time, and even now the selection process is very competitive. :)

    You will find plenty of other role-playing opportunities to join, and there are guides, along with other people, who will aid you as well. :D I hope you find a story that really interests you!

    We have been waiting for a few more applicants so we have a diverse selection to choose from. No decisions have been made as of yet. I can personally assure you, no personal histories will impact any decisions made about who will be invited to participate in the story. All decisions will be based entirely on both the quality of the application submitted, and whether or not we feel as though the characters you have created will fit into the plot.
