Warrior Application
Name: Ser(formerly) Agern Gonrelt
Race: Dwarf
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Personality: Agern is gruff and hard to get close to. He tends to ignore those he finds uninteresting and has little tolerance for fools and screw-ups. Despite this outward showing, Agern is known to open up to the few he grows close with.
Personal belongings: Veridium maul, set of steel dwarven massive armor, one sovereign, and two lesser health potions.
Bio: Agern was born into the warrior caste in Orzammar. His house, the Gonrelt house, has fairly high in the caste and respected for their superior fighters and commanders. Agern dutifully followed in this proud tradition. He placed first in his first outing in the Provings. At seventeen he joined his first excursion into the Deep Roads and by twenty he led his own squad. That same year Agern wed the daughter of a fellow warrior. It seemed as though Agern was well on his way to cementing a legacy in Orzammar and the Deep Roads.

In his twenty-third year, Agern's wife was with child and his house was prosperous. However, his fate was not that simple. While fighting in the Deep Roads Agern's wife was caught in the middle of a street fight between two young warriors. She was accidently run through the middle by one of the combatants. As she lay dying in the street the brawlers fled and word spread throughout the city and eventually reached Agern in the field. Despite his dedication to the cause and his men, Agern abandoned his posting and returned to the city. No one he spoke to was sure which man had killed his wife and frankly didn't care.

One day and two murders later Agern stood before the Assembly. He offered no defense for actions, save his willingness to avenge his wife death when others wouldn't. The assembly voted to exile Agern to the surface as punishment. He was permanently banned from the city and stripped of all titles, holdings, and possessions. For the next thirteen years Agern wandered the surface. He traveled to Val Royeaux and Denerim and points in between. He took work as a mercenary, a bodyguard, and a thug. Today, Agern finds himself in Lothering, having finished up a contract nearby.

[The Templar High Council]

You all... have no idea... how much... work went... into this...
This is V 3.0. I did this 2 more times. Before it worked.
Because I'm a perfectionist.

We have enough humans. Redact the "no more elves" thing I said earlier.

Gender mostly doesn't matter. Especially considering we're almost even. Maybe another lady, but whatever.

Not enough rogues. Need more stealth/archery/lockpick.

Not enough dwarves. Need more little people. Play the dwarf however you want, but I would like at least 1 more.

[Volvek]

Ulrika, Kaya, Ayame, and Momiji are my more common names. Probably going to start using Liru and possibly Shamu.

Interesting how my favorite wolf girls are Inu, Liru, and Shamu.

[The Armed Republic of Dutch Coolness]

I go and sleep for 9 hours, and there's 6 pages of OOC suddenly! Reading it all, will get to the apps in a moment.

- One character each.
- No royalty, please.

[Lorellion]

I think I'm going to make a qunari healer mage, because it seems as though there are no qunari.

[Valentir]

Welp, there goes my lover story. Good luck with the RP guys.

That's because I'm only allowing Humans, Elves, and Dwarves, Origins style.

[The Armed Republic of Dutch Coolness]

Welp, there goes my lover story. Good luck with the RP guys.

Huh?

[Valentir]

Welp, there goes my lover story. Good luck with the RP guys.

Huh?

Ian and Victoria d'Angevine, Orlesian Warriors, Lovers, Husband and Wife. I apped for two characters, you see.

Ah. I'm currently browsing through all the pages for apps.
Like I said, I'm only allowing one character per player.

[Jormengand]

You guys should stop saying so much stuff while I'm not here. Also, if Templar's table is to be believed, we need more male elf magi and female human warriors... and androgynous dwarf rogues? Whatever, I'm too meta for that.

Rogue Application
Name: "Anna," though no-one even pretends they think that's her real name
Race: Human
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance:

http://31.media.tumblr.com/222176bb53f35f894e8005c270e04973/tumblr_mq5ekiOTMJ1sadp9xo1_500.jpg

...only with brown hair instead of what appears to be orange.
Personality: Quiet and reserved. Always seems to find something amusing, but is never willing to share. Anna never uses more words than she needs, and is convinced that everyone else is an idiot.
Personal belongings: Her armour, short swords and throwing knives, a small amount of poison, and enough food to survive for a while.
Bio: This comes in the form of a short story-esque thing because I can.

"Ser?"
"Report."
"Ser, we found her again. She was skulking around the docks."
"And she got away."
"Y...yes ser."

I sighed, and sat back in my chair. The girl had been sighted everywhere from Lothering to the dwarven holds, and was accountable for at least ten murders. Of course, blathering to the wrong people would almost certainly make me her next target. But then, how to find her...

"She was born in Lothering, correct?"
"Yes, ser."
"And you know which house?"
"Yes, ser. But she left there when she was a child; I don't see..."
"Go there. Find what you can about her."

The soldier, not bothering with another affirmative, left. Thinking about it now, he never did return. I'd have expected him to be back by now. I'd say I wondered what happened to him, but I think I can guess.

"Anna. There is a reason I keep a mirror in my room."
"Heh. What, so you can admire yourself one last time before I kill you?"

Why didn't I turn around? Why did I open my mouth? That was stupid. But then, I was dead anyway. Ugh, what is this? Poison? Has she no honour? No, of course not. She's an assassin. Nothing more... Nothing less...

Jor, you're here? Wow, it's been a while.

In other news just spent fifteen minutes fiddling with Dragon Age and Steam to get a decent screenshot of my character that I can post on here.

I was here on the first page.

But yes, it's been a while. How've you been?

[Asyir]

Well that's all she wrote. Good luck with the rp guys, hope it turns out well.

Rogue Application
Name: Kelran Galro
Race: Dwarf
Age: 29
Gender: Female
Appearance:

Personality: Proud of her work, she can get quite cocky believing that what she's created is the best (even when it isn't). Can treat other races as inferior although she sometimes doesn't realize that she's doing so. Having been above ground for awhile she's lost her Stone Sense although she does have a morbid fear of heights. When scared and/or cocky she can be a bit of a motormouth.
Personal belongings: Equipment, potions, and so forth. Two Veridium axes, a full set of Veridium Dwarven armour, A small amount of lyrium dust. A couple of health poultices. some smithing tools for emergency repairs.
Bio: Born into the Smithing Caste in Orzammar, Kelran started off learning the smithing trade, learning how to create weapons and armour until it was her second nature. Not completely happy with her slot in life, and wanting to learn how to use the weapons she created Kelran started to do so in secret. Her secret training, however became her undoing as one day whilst she was alone she was approached by a carta and 'coerced' into helping them. Despite not necessarily doing what she was out of choice Kelran overall enjoyed helping out the carta, seeing it as a way to break the boundaries of the caste system.

Unfortunately good times come to an end, and Kelran was backstabbed by the carta, almost literally and left at the scene of a murder of a member of the Merchant Caste who had been stubbornly going against the carta until the end. Given the choice of being exiled to the surface or joining the Legion of the Dead Kelran fled to the surface. She started getting by by employing the tricks taught to her whilst she'd aided the carta, although she ended up in the West Hills arling and became a smith in one of the larger settlements there. Despite having an honest job she kept her other skills up and often went hunting to make sure she could still use her weapons. Hearing of rumours of the Blight Kelran packed up and headed for Lothering, as her dwarven pride made her want to fight the Darkspawn in whatever way she could.

The bio's a bit rusty I know, I will improve it, this is just me getting the app out now.

Not terrible. I haven't been on NS in aaaaaaages though (Actually only came back looking for AMF's guide to overlooked aspects of warfare for a realistic battle game I'm writing up, but then saw this and things happened).

But hey, everything is going kinda okayishly, so yay.

[SaintB]

Two Questions: Is this still open? If so may I make an Arcane Warrior? I could even write a compelling and canon acceptable reason for this.
