[QUOTE="OnlytheStrong, post: 3976402, member: 54781"] I'd love to play an elven scout. Here's the background: [sblock=background] Aunil is a Knight of Luna. He led a small group of elven archers in the defense of their queen. His patrol group regularly ventured out into the wilderness, to make sure that their borders stayed under control of their Queen. Nothing was special about that day as the group left to begin their patrol. The party had reached the border of their lands when they encountered the first party. It was a small traveling group. They followed the group for a mile or so. Aunil was actually the first one to spot the ambush. His motions showed the other elves where the ambush was, he had to say nothing for them to know what to do. A whip of wind followed by the screams of the dying were all the group of humans heard. Several of them pulled swords, although it was painfully obvious that they had no idea how to use them. Aunil motioned for his party to remain hidden and vigilant, goblins were stupid but numerous. The small group they had just slain could not possibly of been all of them. Aunil stepped out of the brush, not more than 10ft away from a human. The startled man actually fell when he saw the elf. [color=red]"Do not fear me. I am a protector of this land, a Knight of Luna."[/color] Aunil conversed with the party for several more minutes. He feared alittle as long as his patrol was around, they would pick off anything well before it reached him. The human traveler's story amazed Aunil, apparently the entire world had erupted into war. Aunil promised the human a safe travel for as long as they were in the land of the fairie queen. His patrol shadowed them until they had crossed the borders of their land, and were happy to not find a trace of goblins. Aunil could not shake the image of the world. Burning. The death. He destruction. He had to do his part in it. Any war large enough to engulf the world will surely reach his Queen's lands. He had heard a legend, merely a story told by his people of an ancient bow. Legend had it that it was a gift from nature itself. Although he knew little else of this weapon, he knew that it would greatly aid his cause. He decided to leave his lands in order to search for it. He would have to ask the elders for more of the weapons legacy before he left. Aunil returned to his home, and gained permission for his absence. His superiors made it painfully clear to him that they did not expect him to return, but that if he could, his return would be a welcome one. Aunil sighed in relief, for it was honestly not the kind of response he had expected. He stopped by his father, an elf that was rumored to be one of the oldest in the land, and listend to the old legend again. When the story was over, he gathered up his belongings and headed away from his homeland for the first time. [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
