Information:[/b]


Complete the
following biography on your character:





Full Name: Yeroc
Barmin


Current Age: 27


Sub-race (if any):
Mountain Dwarf


Clan (if any):


Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long): Yeroc lived as a
blacksmiths apprentice and his master was his father. At a young age of 10 he
was taught basic blacksmithing skills and became good at making daggers, nails
and hatchets. He soon wanted to know more about blacksmithing and made his very
first sword at the age of 14. Using this sword he practiced swordsmanship and assassin
like techniques. He soon became a fit, strong and quick mountain dwarf. He continued
his blacksmithing career till the age of 17 when he soon found a man willing to
take him as an apprentice as a treasure hunter. Till this day he continues
searching for treasure and at the age of 24 he struck rich splitting half of
his finds with his original father and his master. He soon left his master that
was now old and suffering disease, he set off for an apprentice for himself. His
apprentices name was Ekalb but he was killed by a trap on his third expedition.
Yeroc continued his career blacksmithing and using the tools he made for his
treasure hunting expeditions with his old masters son who is now dead. In his
times of blacksmithing he has become very skilled at armor and sword making he
usually uses the armor he makes for himself or sells it to anyone willing to
buy. As for his swords, he makes a collection of his best swords and sells the
rest to whoever will buy one.


[/b]


Ambitions for the Future: Yeroc’s plans for the future involve him becoming a blacksmith
for a royal or a knight of high authority. He also wants to travel around the
lands of Aegis due to his fascination of it. In his travel he and a party of
well trained treasure hunters will search for their chance at striking rich.


When he gets older he
wants to buy a retirement home on the edge of a river where he will fish and
fish and fish until the day he dies. He wants to do this because of his love for
the taste of a cooked bream.


Personality: Yeroc is a tough man that will risk his life for anything that
is important to him. His love of blacksmithing and treasure hunting has taught
him great skills of survival, crafting and tactics. Yeroc has gone his whole
life living without a mother due to her dying when she gave birth to him. Yeroc
has always wondered what she looked like and how nice she was. He can always
remember the stories his father has told about his mother.


Skills: Yerocs skills include blacksmithing and treasure hunting,
these two things are practiced day in and day with Yeroc and he never gets
bored of it. Yeroc can craft anything if you give him a chunk of iron, anything
from axes to swords to armor. Yeroc usually buys materials for blacksmithing
from the money he gains from treasure hunting and the joy of mixing his 2
favorite things together is unimaginable.


Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your
skin): Yerocs appearance is a rough looking man in
his favorite suit of chainmail armor that he had crafted in the past. The belt he
wears was given to him by his father and has great meaning to him because of
the unique look of it.

[b]Open-Response-Questions[/b]


Each question in this section must be
answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.


____





[b]1. Whilst mining deep in the undergrounds of Kalos you see a large deposit
of diamond ore at the other side of the ravine you are on. There is a very thin rock bridge
that looks precariously unstable, but it is the only way to access the deposit. What do you do?[/b]





Answer: As I am walking through the ravine and I notice the diamond I think
to my self “what great swords I can make from that”. I slowly cross the bridge
and throw a stone to check for traps. If there are no traps I continue slowly
toward the diamond and mine it. If there are traps I analyze the area and think
of an easy way to get past them. I finally find a way and crawl under the speeding
blow darts shooting from the wall then I dig the diamonds.





[b]2. You are sitting in the local tavern with a large pint of ale in your hand - sitting nearby you is a rather young dwarf
whom is
clearly going through a bad time. He is crying to himself, and clutching a small wooden hammer toy. In the other corner of the
room two shady dwarves are sitting whispering to each other and pointing occasionally
at the dwarf. They stand up, one with a small dagger in his hand and begin to approach the young dwarf. What do you do?[/b]





Answer: I stand up and pretend that I am drunk and stumble toward the
men and fall over onto them, if I am caught I would quickly pickpocket them and
steel whatever money they have, if noticed I stand and draw my sword and
threaten them with their lives to leave the tavern.





[b]3. Whilst wandering through the Dwarven Caverns you hear a voice call out to you; “Oi, ye’! C’mere n’ get ye’rself an ale!”. You spin on your heel and see a heavily bearded
bar-owner
looking at you - a huge grin on his face, and a mug of ale in his hand. How do you react?[/b]





Answer: I say “Aye matey, a great soul you are but I think I’ll pass”.
Then slowly back away from the guy and say goodbye and run.
