Player Name: Your name/nickname
Character Name: The name of your character. Most animal-blooded elves
tend to be called something that reflects their personality (ex: Dawngazer
enjoys watching the sun rise), abilities (ex: Branchwalker is an excellent
tree climber) or appearance (ex: Bloodmane has red hair). Some animal-bloods
and most purebloods and sea-elves have sound names (such as Riv or Kala).
Cub Name: Your character's birth name. Might be the same as the current
name, but elves who don't have sound names might find later in life that their
name no longer suits them and therefore change it.
Previous Names: Has your elf had any other names than a cub name before
the current one?
Gender: Male or female?
Age: Go here to see about elfin aging. Scroll down to purebloods,
animal-bloods or sea-elves, depending on what sort of elf you wish to create.
Soul Name: Go here to see about soul names.
Race: At the moment we only accept elves as playable characters.
No trolls, preservers or humans, but there might be in the future. To look up
on elfin races go here.
Origin: Holt elf or wanderer? If you want to play an elf from the Tall
Tree Holt you have to adopt. Go
here to look for adoptables. If you're playing a wanderer please state the
name of the tribe/group he or she was last with.
Role: For roles, go here
Siblings: Write like this: Name of sibling (brother/sister/half-sister/
half-brother, deceased/free/captured/unknown)
Parents: See Siblings.
Lovemates/Lifemates/Recognized: See Siblings.
Children: See Siblings.
Others: Here's were the rest go. Furmates, cousins, soul siblings,
etc. See Siblings on how to write.
Magic: Go here and
here for info about magic. We're trying to keep magic to a minimum
at the moment so unusual magic is hard to get. Of course, magic is not needed to make an interesting elf.
Skills: Anything you can come up with. Be creative! And no, listing
"breathing" as a skill is not necessary. Well, perhaps if you play a sea-elf ;)
More info here.
Weapons/Tools: More info here
Other Items: What's you're elf carrying around? A sleeping fur perhaps,
some pretty trinkets maybe. As long as it's not a piece of the Palace it could
be anything.
Personality: What kind of a person is your elf? And how does s/he act? Behavior and true personality is seldom the
same thing. Be original. A Holt full
of only loners or overly friendly elf isn't much fun to rp.
Likes: Things your elf really likes.
Dislikes: Things your elf don't like or even hate.
Fears: The things that _really_ scares your elf. No one wants to do
die, but unless your elf fears death above all things else it's not necessary
to list that here.
Appearance: Height, facial features, built, skin color, etc.
Marks/Scars: Remember that only elves born outside of Recognition can
have birthmarks.
Hair: Color, length, style.
Eyes: Color, shape, size.
Clothes: What your elf wears during warm and cold seasons. Clothing
material varies. Could be leather, could be mothcloth (silk) could be cotton.
Just keep where the elf got his/her clothes from in mind. Remember to
consider the weather where your elf comes from/is. If we're rping a snow storm
when your elf is introduced it's not likely s/he'd walk around in a
loincloth.
Jewelry: Can be made out of metal, gems, cloth; whatever your elf thinks
of as pretty and precious.
History: What has happened in your elf's life before s/he met the rpg?
Where was s/he born, has something really strange or life changing ever happened
to him/her. If your elf comes from a tribe the survivors just have met, why did s/he leave
her/his birth tribe and join them?
If you're making a wanderer, why is s/he out wandering?
A nice background story is always appreciated and it's always nice if it can be used to create interesting plot-points
in the future.
If you're having a problem think up a tribe that your elf can come from or if you want him/her to perhaps meet people from
his/her birth tribe, talk to me (shadesofia@yahoo.se) and I'll see what I can do.
There are existing tribes to choose from as well. There can only be a maximum of two tribes
with the same blood (ex: the limit for wolf-bloods has been reached. There's the
survivors old Holt - the Tall Tree Holt - which doesn't count as it's the "main" Holt, but we already have Sunsleaf's birth
tribe and Rainblossom and Bloodcut's birth tribe.)
Bond Beast: (If the elf has one. If not then this information is unnecessary.)
