Shawn

Real life part:

Name: Nicholas (Sweden: Nicklas)

Age: 18

Where are you from: Sweden.

Intrests: Music, socialising and spending time at the computer.

What type of gamer are you, no-lifer or casual: Well, certainly not no-life. I go out and have the occasional drink at the pub or such with my friends a weekend now or then. Wont always participate on events, but I'll still be an active member.

What games have you played before and how do you feel about rp: World of Warcraft, the Star Wars K.O.T.O.R games and Oblivion. I feel that RP is a way to delve deeper into the game itself, to have an ongoing story-line that never ends till you say so, and you decide how it's going to play out.

Whats the general airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow: Actually I don't know..Aah! *Is hurled into the river of lava*


Ingame part:

Name: Shawn

Class: Ranger

Race: Aquilonian

Do you know any CoT´ers and can anyone vouch for you?: Apart from the brief OOC chat with Horatious; No.

Why do you want to join CoT, and what can you bring us?: I came here to the server with a few friends from Argent Dawn (WoW). We had in mind to become a band of mercenaries and hire ourselves out to some guild, only IC that is. So after a few weeks of searching and observing the different guilds here, we thought that the CoT would be the best, as it has a promising future for a good RP community, due to the many different intraguilds and kinds of RP the members can choose between (Merchant for instance.)
As an individual I suppose I can provide the guild with an ounce of atmosphere IC'ly, and also contribute slightly to the city-resource effort.

What do you expect from CoT?: A decent RP atmosphere to be comfortable in, and meeting new friendly faces along the road.

What ingame part would you like to play in the guild, if any: As discussed earlier with Horatious, a mercenary faction, helping out with security of the city, and other tasks whenever it is necessery.

Have you been part of a guild, or are currently part of a guild in AoC?: No, as previously mentioned we have been searching for a guild that sounds decent, and now it appears we have found that one.

If yes to the above, who and why are you looking to leave/why did you leave?

Rp Background: Shawn grew up in the lower parts of society in Old Tarantia, raised in poverty and bad company. The father was a sailor, and could spend months away at sea. Thus, it took time before he could bring coin to the table, and Shawns mother had to resort into whoring. His mothers occupation introduced many new men besides his father into his life. Most of them he would only have time to lay his eyes upon while they were passing by into his mothers chambers, but there were some regular "clients". For instance there was a merchant who would come by a few times per week, and sometimes even give Shawn a tin coin. But there was also a retired soldier, who would come by every Wednesday. This old veteran, would become the most important man in Shawns life, as he tought him through his stories of war how to survive out in the wild, learnt him the art of bandaging wounds, and even allowed him to lend his old crossbow.
Through the years Shawn had adapted a natural talent for sharpshooting, and survival. He would spend days out in the wild, sometimes hunting, sometimes just watching the animals roam the plains. But, eventually it became evident that coin, was something that was necessery for him to survive in the civilised world, hence he started out in doing smaller tasks for various smugglers and slavers, for a brief period of time he would smuggle stranded folks out of Tortage, during the tyrant Stroms rule. However, competition grew and he found himself out of work once again. Life was tough for a mercenary, they had been given a bad reputation of disloyalty after so many of them selling themselves out to the Nemedian invaders, but this would come to a change..

Anything else you might wanna add: Me and the other blokes applying here used to be formed Stormwind City Watch officers on Argent Dawn (eu). Myself I was a Master Sergeant, which would be a third class officer.

Horatious

Looks good, welcome aboard
