Bio

My name, as you may have noticed, is Sven. The last part of my username is a historical reference to an important person in Dutch history, William the Silent to be specific, an important leader during the Dutch revolt. If this didn't tell you already, I love history. I eat, breath and sleep history. Anything involving a historically correct setting will most likely draw my interest, whether it is during the first or perhaps the second World War, the colonial age, or even the the ancient times during the Roman Empire.

Now to sum this up to an easy and bite sized piece of information, I will most likely be down for the following scenarios or genres in terms of roleplay:

- Apocalyptic settings, whether that be Zombie or natural disasters. (Both post-apocalyptic and during the apocalypse itself.)
- Roleplays during the first or the second World War are things I enjoy immensly and that is something i'm very knowledgeable on as well.
- Ancient Rome, love it. If you have anything to do with that or possibly with things like that such as the Greek city states, I will most likely be interested.
- Videogames, roleplays based on video games such as the Metro or the Fallout series are things I can also enjoy.

@ViolentViolet Looking good, you can post it in the character tab an continue to edit it from there.
@Pripovednik Well if you're asking me specifically. You can use the command to make things look nicer.
@Pripovednik In my case, this account is just a new account and i'm not some what new to roleplay. I don't know if you are, but I always found looking at other characters helpfull in creating and shaping my own. Helping with overall descriptiveness and what not, figured you might find that helpful.
@Pripovednik Better, the spear is still a bit of an unorthodox weapon. From the picture I assume you tied a knife to a stick of sorts, which makes it very likely it will become stuck in an enemy and thus cause you trouble. Keep that in mind.

Feel free to chuck your character in the character page.
@Inertia That's a shame, if you happen to reconsider then you're more then welcome here.
@Pripovednik Ah, yes. I see that I didn't read that quite right. ''Hes athletic, so hes generally fit not fat, muscular but not bulky. Like an athlete.'' That's more descriptive already, without you even having to put in effort.

As for personality, it gives a nice insight to your character. You can read that of others and think, with him i'll get along, or that guy and me are going to be at odds. It's just nice to have on hand.

You're free to describe the clothing rather then use the pictures if you like, it would look more organised and makes up for your lack of being able to employ hiders.
@Pripovednik It seems like you neglected the Pyshical shape and personality section some what. I understand the latter though, it can be difficult to write down a personality properly. Hence I suggested you take a look at what others have created so far. :)

I also personally, find all the pictures of clothing a bit overkill and off putting. (But that's not a reason for not being accepted yet.)

Your background also contradicts itself a few times, mentioning you stole from multiple houses but that you got caught stealing on your first ever house. Things like ''Paying rent- stealing shit'' comes across as uninterested to the reader.

Please do not be offended, I find it very difficult to offer criticism to others because I do not like hurting other people. I suggest taking your time and polishing your character sheet up a bit. :) (If you're still interested that is.)

Edit: A homemade spear is not impossible but seems to me very impractical in its use. You also mention being set free, but from there on there isn't anything else about what happened then. (Assuming you got set free at the start of the outbreak, or a few days in.)
@Pripovednik I appreciate the effort you put in to making your character, but I feel as though you're not quite on the level of roleplay experience that i'm looking for at the moment. I would advice taking a look at the characters currently in circulation and those already accepted, they should help you along. :)
@ViolentViolet You have your reply, sorry for the late response.

I am currently working on my own character and will thus be some what distracted.
