Hi, I'm interested in playing. I'm working on a monk. He's actually reworked from a tenth level character for another game here that seems to have died shortly after it started, so he's basically a younger, untraumatized version. I'll post him when I'm done.
Here we go:
[sblock='Shoon']
[sblock='Inventory']
[/sblock][sblock='Description']Age: 18
Height: 5’ 10”
Weight: 137
Eyes: greenish blue
Hair: blond
Skin: light, tanned
Shoon's hair is short though not short enough to make you think it would stick up in the way it does. He has a lean, athletic build. He wears relatively practical, loose clothes that wouldn't make him stand out as someone who might be skilled in combat were it not for the Kama and Siangham secured at his waist.
[/sblock][sblock='History']Many who walk the path of the adventurer do so to escape some dark past. Shoon is not one of them.
Shoon never knew his original family. His earliest memories are of the monastery in which he was raised. This particular one was dedicated to the sun god Pelor and so it was that he grew up with the monks’ teachings, and they became his family. He spent his early life learning from the monks there and training to become one of them, and at the age of seventeen was accepted as a full member of the order.
He decided then that the best way he could spread the teachings of Pelor as well as hone his skills was to follow the path of the warrior’s pilgrimage. So it was that he set out to travel the land, searching out evil and despair and putting it to right and helping those in need.
He does not yet understand the complexities of the world outside the monastery, so he is rarely suspicious of others without good reason. He also tends to view things simplistically when it comes to morality. Recently he has discovered that bounty hunting is a good way to both bring criminals to justice and support himself during his travels.[/sblock][/sblock]

excellent... just to know, 'cause in case you end up selected: in the town there is a priestess who either was tutoring you, or was being tutored by you, her name Danya Nolwit.Yes, the Brothers of the Flame are younger than other priests when they take upon their places... Fire is still strong in youth

Hey, Land Outcast, um, you saw my post right? I just want to make sure cause I get ignored quite often and it makes me insecure :\ . Um, right, well just tell me if the answer in no or not so I don't die of suspense. Which I don't think is actually posible, but still it's rather painful. Being in suspense I mean.

I did see it 
no prob... Could you put some more "Oomph" to the character's story? Just for your own good

By "oomph" do you mean a typically dark and broody story about how he lost everything dear to him? 
The funny thing is that he has a really traumatic experience 3 or 4 years in the future(Which was actually in his past when I first made him). He was actually supposed to be kind of innocent, having been cloistered away in a monastery for most of his life. Anyway, I'll try to do something.
