Application Character name
Kara Du'Monte
Playing times
Euro mainly, though I do heavily stretch into the american timezone too. The benefits of being a student and night owl
RP experience
None in Ultima online, for I am literally a two day new arrival. However, I've been involved in various role-playing games for Thirteen years. My experience ranges from dungeons and dragons pen and paper, Neverwinter nights (A hardcore role-playing server that to this day is still going) , Star wars galaxies (though I did not find the rp satisfaction that I sought.) and quite a few other role-playing games. I am a heavy fan of the fantasy genre in general and I'm always willing to try new things. If only I had found ultima online sooner.
PvP experience
Not an ounce.
Character background
The Du'Monte family, a small noble family connected to the Aristocracy of Jhelom has had it's fingers deep within the trade of weapons in and around the realm of Jhelom, often supplying adventurers and the royal expeditionary forces stationed within the small city. Despite the various struggles that had broken out in the past, the constant change in rulers and laws, the Du'Monte family had managed to survive and came to prosper. Having originally begun with a warrior retiring from the field of battle, the Du'Monte family has long has the tradition of martial excellence running through the line of sons in the family, while daughters of the house were regularly married off to other houses to secure alliances.
Currently, Sir Willem is head of the household, with his loving wife Maria ever at his side. The Du'Monte family is a fairly large one, considering the status of the house and its minor dalliances at court. Having three sons and a single daughter ; Nathan, Geralt , Zathan and finally, Kara. While his three sons had been destined to eventually become a part of the Valorian knightly Order, the young Kara had been resigned to being taught how to become a proper lady at court, much to her displeasure. Despite her complaints at her lot in life, her childhood and rise to becoming a woman was comfortable...she had wanted for little, except the freedom to do as she pleased.
Upon her sixteenth birthday (and some would say her most rebellious year) , she had finally grown tired enough of her pampered life that she had sought out a childhood friend by the name of Keiran. the two of them were both unhappy with their lot in life and had decided to take matters into their own hands. On a favourable moon, the two young adults took what food they could carry from Kara's estate and ran up into the hills to try and disappear for a while. The journey had started out with the best of intentions ; to go and find their own way in the world, and for a while, they had managed just that. It was not until the two were reminded of the pampered lives they had led, that they had begun to grow tired of their new found freedom.
Coupled with the realisation that their families had begun a search across Jhelom's island, the teens eventually returned to their families and accepted the punishments that had been due them. Keiran had been sent to enlist in the Britannian royal army, while Kara was given a book of chivalry, in the hopes that she might reflect on where her decisions had gone awry and how the virtues might better steel her beliefs. While certainly not immediately, she eventually became caught up with the virtues and the code of chivalry itself.
Two years on, she had begged her father to allow her a pilgrimage across Britannia to better teach her of the Eight virtues. She eventually had gotten what she desired ; The opportunity to travel the land in search of a purpose. This journey eventually brought her to the shores of New haven with a few bundles of clothes, a small package of gold and faith in the code. With her belief already beginning to manifest as divine prayer, she sought out the local Paladin order, who taught her as much as they could before she was finally compelled towards Trinsic.
She now stands on the cusp of change, eager to learn and find her place.
