The Havelocke Brothers

Postby Lazarus Havelocke on August 18th, 2013, 5:24 am

FLUFF

Name: Lazarus Havelocke
Race: Eypharian
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Height Around 7'
Weight 180lbs
Birthplace: Ahnatep

Appearance: The first thing someone would notice about this man is, "My god, he's blue!" This would likely be closely followed shortly by the spidery apendages that sprout from his sides, far more than the majority of the human and not-so-human races you would see on a day to day basis. Needless to say, he stands out in a crowd unless grouped with equally or exceedingly strange-looking creatures. His skin is a rich, dark blue, which came in handy later in life when he would become more of a woodsy person for reasons he's rather tight-lipped about. His pigmentation was of much service to him when he needed to disappear into the night. Overall, Lazarus is tall and gangling, a true ectomorph. His hair and beard are black and long, even scraggly throughout most of the day. The woods are not kind to one's personal appearance, so unlike most Eypharians, he's a tad more worn than most had come to expect of his race. Earthen colors adorn his frame in the form of leathers nestled under a drab brown cloak. Nothing flashy, but they serve their purpose.

Lazarus in a Nutshell: Lazarus is, for the most part, extroverted. He was practically born outdoors and prefers being there. Although he puts on airs around non-Eypharians, he does truly take pride in his skills. They are his; they are him. Some people foolishly say that they are not their job. Such a statement is a delusion entertained by those who hate their profession. Lazarus loves what he does and therefore loves what he is. He provides services, he gains compensation, and then he spends his money so that others can live the same dream, or at the very least aspire to live up to the Eypharian standard. It has been noted by lesser races that he is far too "hands-on" with them. Perhaps it's because Eypharians do not understand personal-space beyond what is Eypharian-space.

History: Lazarus was in the woods as soon as he could walk, following in his fathers footsteps and learning his trade. Most think of the lavish nobility of Eypharian society whenever the species' name comes up, but most forget that there are "common" Eypharians that support it all. Throughout his youth Lazarus' father was a harsh task master and Lazarus learned soon what the consequences of wandering off were. After all, his father's wrath wasn't nearly as terrifying as what lurked in the darkness. Despite the gloom and dire dangers that lied in wait within the woods, the wonders of the wilderness ensnared him. There he learned what trees yielded the strongest wood, the best for bow-crafting, how to collect the right kinds for a fire, how to shield himself from the elements, and so much more.

The wilderness hardened Lazarus. He has scars on his body to show everything from childish mistakes to close calls with the local wildlife. They were merely things that taught him life lessons that would stay written on his body to remind him not to acquire too many more, lest he taint his appearance too much. Although, there were those out there who could appreciate the beauty of scars, even certain women among the Eypharians... However, he would have to grow up eventually. Eventually, when he was deemed to be a man, he started venturing out on his own, no longer simply working with father. He worked as a woods-guide for "Better" Eypharians and even occasionally taking the money of of stupid non-Eypharians that didn't know any better, whomever, so long as they could offer a modest payment and would aid the in tracking and capturing the occassional troublesome feral when the opportunity presented itself. However, he and his younger brother had to leave town.

You see, they slept with the wrong palace-goer's concubines and were forced to leave town to avoid certain parties' wrath thought that since even Eypharians of their humble rank were practically divine among the lesser races, so if they could tolerate a little bit of slow-witted company, they could easily make their way through the outside world. The two brothers were bound to make waves!

OOC Notes

Lazarus's brother, Dominik, is another PC and will likely be featured in much of his adventures. They are bound to be closely tied together. Those who wish to be included in our adventures, of course, may, but keep in mind that I and probably Dominik's player too will be true to our characters 100% of the way through including the racist tendencies that their species has. Please know in advance that nothing is personal and nothing is serious. It's a game and this is a story. Unless otherwise noted, everything will be in-character. Likewise, I will treat all interactions as IC unless specifically noted that they are not and react appropriately.

Hello Lazarus!

I'm Wanderlust, one of your local Character Sheet Liaisons. I'm here to help make your experience on Mizahar begin as smoothly as possible! Unfortunately, I've noticed some issues with your character sheet that will need to be resolved before you can continue roleplaying. Once these issues have been taken care of, PM me and I'll remove this intervention!

  • Title: The title of your CS thread should be your character's first and last name only.
  • DoB: You must include a full date of birth, which includes the day, season, and year in which your PC was born.
  • Appearance: Eypharians are not blue -- their skin ranges from fair to olive-toned.
  • History: There are no woodland areas near or around Ahnatep.
  • Lores: I'm afraid your lores are a bit too broad. Additionally, you shouldn't have to give an explanation of a lore. Try simply Lore of Spotting Hidden Trails or something along those lines, if that was what you were going for.
  • Skills: Unfortunately, Ranged Weapon is not a viable skill, as not all ranged weapons are the same. You must specify which weapon Lazarus had training in and rename the skill "Weapon: (insert weapon here)". Also, your skills have been set up incorrectly. Please see the Secret below for more information on how to properly set up your Skills.

    Secret :
    Examples

    Skills Exp Total Proficiency
    Auristics 15 SP, 72 XP 87 Master
    Seduction 18 SP, 3 XP 21 Novice
    Glassworking 10 RB, 12 SP, 35 XP 57 Expert
    Intelligence 5 SP 5 Novice
    Sewing 13 XP 13 Novice
    Weapon: Javelin 1 XP 1 Novice
    Acrobatics 85 XP 85 Master


    SP = Starting Points
    RB = Racial Bonus Points
    XP = Earned Experience Points


    Example 2:

    Auristics: 87/100 (15 SP)
    Seduction: 21/100 (18 SP)
    Glassworking: 57/100 (10 RB) (12 SP)
    Intelligence: 5/100 (5 SP)
    Sewing: 13/100
    Weapon, Javelin: 1/100
    Acrobatics: 85/100


    Notice how the Starting Points, Racial Bonus Points, and Earned Experience Points are all notated differently. This allows Storytellers and other staff to review your Character Sheet more accurately, and ensure that everything is accurate and up to date.

  • Ledger: Your ledger should be set up in a list or table format, like the example below:
    ItemPriceMoney
    Starting Package+ 100 gm100gm
    Candle-1 gm99 gm
    Shirt-1 gm98gm

    This makes it much easier for Storytellers to check to make sure your ledger is up to date and correct.

    Additionally, outside of Taldera, Avanthalian Sleigh Horses are relatively rare. Each runs about 200 gold mizas per horse. As such, the price deducted from your ledger for 4 horses should be -800 GM -- which is too expensive for your character at the moment.
  • Housing and Location: A character sheet must include a separate section for listing housing situations. In what city is Lazarus currently staying? What does he live in? Please also note that you cannot survive in the harsh wilderness of Mizahar without the Wilderness Survival skill.


Once the issues I mentioned above have been taken care of, I'll approve your CS. Of course, I'm here to help! If anything I mention needs clarified, or if you just have any general questions, feel free to PM me! :)
