Apologies for the delay. I've had the unfortunate circumstance of a power outage take away everything I've typed up for the opening post. Mostly my fault for not saving when I should have. Ugh... I'll try and type it up again and have it ready by tonight or tomorrow.. sorry everyone.

@Joker892 Nice job! Looks like Juko has a soft spot for our little brother. I like the how Juko and the guards giving Pup, a pup.

@Solaris Excellent! Great use of The Butrais Family. I imagine Queen Lilas will be very fond of Seb since he's Okarian royalty. Makes even more sense that he will be interacting with the Ardin children a lot too.

@HushedWhispers@Joker892[@Fabricant451 Looking forward to reading what you all come up with! Don't forget to PM me what class you intend to be for your Adulthood sheet.

How's everyone doing today?

*A wild noob appears*

@GodOfWar Thank you!

Going through my sheet I realized that it'll be difficult to write out the Adulthood portion without revealing too much. I very much want to capture that element of surprise from our growth compared to the first Act. Not to mention that there will be things that transpire during ACT I that could affect what your characters end up doing...

So for those reasons, I'll just have you all fill out the Childhood sheet only.

I'm going to go about it now a little different. For ACT II, instead of just posting your sheets when it starts, I'll just have you guys write it out in your intro IC posts. Describing yourselves as you normally would, then when it comes time to talk, you'll pretty much be saying your bio in dialogue form, again, revealing what you only want to reveal. Hope that makes sense.

Basically, hold off on posting ACT II's sheet for now.

EDIT: PM me what class your character will be, just so I can make sure when it comes time for the reveal nobody has the same class. The class I pick for Vetras is Knight.

Vetras Ardin

A. Childhood - ACT I Sheet

Name: Vetras Ardin
Nickname: Vetty
Age: 11 years old
Appearance:
Height: 4'8"
Weight: 78 lbs
Hair Color: Dirty Blonde
Eye Color: Sea Green

Personality:

It is hard to determine who Vetty takes after more. He is a reflection of his mother's free spirit and possesses the warmth of his father's good nature. Inquisitive by nature, he articulates well enough to get his point across, and is unafraid to express how he feels.

Vetras is a compassionate big brother. He looks after his siblings, often taking blame for things they've done. The weight of Monaxer's future rests heavy on his shoulders. His ambition to be king is outweighed by his passion to hunt. He often uses this hobby as a means to escape from his responsibilities. Tracking hare and deer in the open wild excites him, far more than reading dusty tomes of Ardin history ever could.

Bio:

Vetras was born after his father's first year as king. He was raised in the same manner as Tir, working among farmers, fishers, hunters, and tanners. It was a method great grandfather Vetrusis used on his son, Dareth, who in turn did the same for his son. Less coddling and more humility, it taught Vetras many things about life, not just as an Ardin, but as a human being.

His brother and sisters were right there beside him. They grew up listening to the same stories sung by their beautiful mother, learned the same ways of the sword and bow from Master Juko, and hunted and fished the same way their great grandfather Vestrusis did.

As they grew older, their responsibilities as Ardin heirs became different. The four children still played whenever they could, but now Vetras was taking history lessons with Sir Olan Toures, learning about military strategy from Sir Beverly Gard. He wasn't out in Monaxer working the land with its people. Now, he was shadowing his father as advisers spouted matters of policy and economics, housing and development.

Just when the young lad was getting overwhelmed by it all, the Ardin family went on what would be their one and only road trip to Loten. It was the first time any of the siblings ever left Monaxer territory, and it certainly wouldn't be their last...

Vetrusis died a week after the Ardins returned from Loten. The loss was hard on Vetras. His great grandfather was a huge influence in his life. Vetrusis was someone he looked up to, especially when the grooming of kingship was too much to bare. Though hearts were heavy, it brought the family closer, yet sorrow never passed. Instead, a cruelty of a different kind would swelter in its place, one that would rear its ugly head from across the sea, from the land of Wulfgarn and Tsat...
