In-Character

Read the following prompt:

The rhythmic lull of hoofbeats are a marching drum to the small group of pioneers and variety of folk you have found yourself amongst, packed into a wobbling wagon. The rolling plains of the Southern Reach and a clear sky stretch out all around you, the buzz of excited chatter a dull wash in your ears as your mind strays to your former life and what has led you here to new lands.

“Nervous?”

You blink, returning to the present moment. A kindly older woman sat near you is smiling warmly with a crinkle to her eyes.

“I can tell it’s your first time. Still remember mine,” she flashes a grin and leans in.

“Tell me my dear, why have you come to the Reach?”

How do you respond (in character)(150 words minimum - please make sure to include some references to our lore in your response!)

Akta avoids any eye contact, he's clearly anxious and doesn't quite know what to say or where to start. 

He starts speaking, his unknown accent is very strong

"My country Argoten was attacked, I'm the only survivor. I've been stuck in imprisonment for a while. Argoten was a clean, quiet and peaceful place but it is no longer there." 

He's not sure what words to use as he's not had to speak English in a while, he zones out for a little bit before coming to and starting again. 

"It's cold, I need to find somewhere to stay, wondered where I'd end up if I took this... wagon?"

He glances over at the woman, aware that he's being judged. He mumbles something in Argotesk under his breath before forcing a slight smile.

"I'm excited though, I've never travelled around this area before."

Character Name: Akta. 

Character Race: High Elf. 

Character Age: 26. 

Brief Physical Description: Long, blonde hair.

Bright, blue eyes.

Wears all sorts of colourful robes.

Wears loads of jewellery.

Quite tall. 

 

Hey MinimumGrief/_AshieBoi_ ! I'm Moony and I'll be handling your application. 

I think it's pretty creative that you came up with your own culture of sorts but unfortunately we'd prefer if you stuck with what is already in the Compendium for the time being. The application specifically states "please make sure to include some references to our lore in your response!" for the written section, this lets us know that you've taken time to read what we've put together. If you edit your written response and character's race/culture to fit with the lore we've already written then I'd love to give this another read, since you seem like a good writer. Also, please note that the test requires you to have at LEAST 150 words at the minimum.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to continue the discussion in this post, message me here on the forums, or reach out to me through the Avalore Discord (I'm also Moony there).

Good luck, and I look forward to your response!

Hi MinimumGrief, as this application has not be responded to for 10 days it has been declined. However, please feel free to apply again!
