I'll resume posting in a bit, just wanted to wait for more people to introduce their characters before regular posting.
“These aren’t exactly shining credentials.” Noami pursued her lips for a moment, considering, and then rubbed the side of her nose. Her eye contact with the butler did not falter, however, and for a long minute she held his gaze until he began to shift uncomfortably. Finally, he shoved the papers back into her hands and said; “I don’t think the Lord Rowan will want a cook who has had house-fires in her ledger, my apologies.”

“I get it,” she said, her frustration layered thick onto her words. “You’re the kind of man who controls every little detail, right? Micromanagement, that’s the term. You want someone whose leash is a little shorter.” There was a quick nod in reply, and a motion towards the gate of the estate. Grabbing the papers, Naomi stuffed them into her boot carelessly and turned on her heels to exit. With one last thought she turned again.

“You wouldn’t happen to need an alchemist, though?”

“I’m afraid that job is one for academies, and not estates. Good day, ma’am.”

And a good day it was not. Three times already Naomi had been turned down in this town. The first attempt, of course, was at the university. There, a rather shriveled old creature gazed down at her from a seat that was a foot too high to be practical and dismissed her application with practiced ease. A tavern run by a woman who found mothering to be more than she bargained for simply could not spare the money to hire another cook. And no, wizards did not have that kind of coin either.

Naomi dug a furious hole in the snow with the heel of her shoe. It was far too cold to seek out another job offer before nightfall, and she couldn’t afford the inn where she was now. Trekking onwards was her best option. She pulled her cloak around her a little more tightly and asked a merchant who was packing his wares where the next inn would be. After a shake of his head he pointed north, and north Naomi went. She went for hours, gathering snow on her shoulders and in her boots. And finally, as her toes were numbing, she caught site of a building. Above its rickety-looking door hung the words “The Unorthodoxy.” Upon entering she was greeted by a dwarfish man, and she took a moment to appreciate the dry, heated air and orange tones of the room. This would certainly do.
Nonsequitur your sheet looks good.

I'm going to start the IC soon, friends, so hold tight. Applications wont close after that, since people can come and go to and from the inn at any time.
Soba you're good. The other two of you do what you can.

Name: Donna Swallows
Age: 21
Sex: FemaleRace: Elf
Class(lol): Stripper/Priest
Bio: Born in the small town of Stripland Donna was raised to be a stripper. She joined her first strip club at the age of 10. She became a priest later on because she felt that more people will listen to her religion if she strips.
Picture or description of character: Caution hot lady.


This is very bare bones. We're gonna need more than just adhering to what you'd expect from the class. Give her some depth outside of the whole "stripper yes wow" thing. I know this is supposed to be funny but you can get humor out of a character whose creation has a little more tact and care. Elaborate more on the bio and add her personality in the description, and you should be good.
Name: Naomi Rinal

Age: 27

Sex: Female

Race: Human

Class: Alchemist Cook

Bio: Naomi grew up the daughter of academics in a large city far to the south. Her parents, in their traditional ways, did not want her to pursue the fine arts of alchemy and scholarship. Instead her mother and father envisioned Naomi allowing them to marry into a family more moneyed than their own. In her "perfect housewife" training she found particular proficiency in cooking. Of course when she turned 18 she took the chance to slip out from underneath her family's oppressive care and sought a proper alchemical education elsewhere. Slowly Naomi worked her way north, where she found that no matter how much she learned about the elements, or the distillation of essence, or even the creation of remedies, it would always be easier for her to find a job as a cook than an alchemist.

Picture or description of character: [PICTURE TBA] She has dark skin and darker hair pulled into a thick and braided mess. Her eyes are full and brown, nose long, and lips thin. There is a constant air of analysis and judgment about her due to her always watching other people with an intense and unsettling interest. When in uniform Naomi hikes up her long skirts and wears gloves reaching to the hems of her three-quarters-sleeve blouse. Times of relaxation see her pulling an ornate red bodice over her dress and sticking golden pins and wildflowers into her mass of hair. Her manner is that of someone with a great thirst for knowledge and an unfortunate lack of social conduct. She is prone to asking something a little too personal or getting a little too close, and loves a good secret or bit of gossip. There's also a fair amount of disorganization in her life, which can lead to dangerous mistakes if she cannot keep her cooking and her alchemy sufficiently separate.
I have cook/alchemist. Yes.
Well hey there, winkyface.
