Knights of Alanthia

Your eyes open as the sun beats down on you the heat of it feels like daggers on your skin, you bring your hand up to sheild your eyes from its painful glare. You have been traveling with a small band of recruits much like yourself. You look around and wonder at the diversity of your small troop in Alanthia most keep to themselves races are separated elves never live with humans, humans never live with dwarves and so on and so forth. Furthermore the races are normally separated by class within themselves upper middle and lower class rarely intermingled unless of course you are a merchant or a guard. But here in your group you all congregate together it is an odd sight.
You think back to the first time you saw all races intermingled. It was the day you enlisted to be a knights apprentice.

(Classes Available: Upper, Middle, Lower)
(Races Available: Elf, Dwarf, Orc, Goblin, Human, Hafling, Half-Elf, Half-Orc)

Background:

It's not long before your guide points out the gates to the great city Elzinbar the capital city of Alanthia, you look up at the great gate it blocks out the sun which makes the gold on the gates glitter like a thousand small suns. The gold sets off the midnight blue of the tapestries hanging from its great towers.




The city has a lot more water than you expected there are many canals filled with Crystal clear water unlike most places outside the capitol city which has dirty water that smells of sewage and death but with no other source of water it is what is commonly used to wash clothes food and to bath the capitol city is all glitter and glamour compared to most other places. You follow your guide threw the streets of the city until you reach what is obviously the kings castle. The guards nod to you as you walk by.

ACCEPTED once we get 2 or 3 more people we can start

Name: Sylric Tassarion
Age: 26
Race: Elf
Class: Lower
Gender: Male
Weapon of Choice: A small dagger, the sides deliberately cut to make it more jagged along the edges.
Role(i.e. healer, rouge, wizard ect.): Rogue
Strengths: Learning how to fight with only the most basic of weapons has meant that Sylric is very good at coming up with strategies in order to defeat more powerful opponents. From this has stemmed his improved stealth and agility, as is necessary for survival on his own. His advanced knowledge of the wild is also one of his main strengths, and it allows him to craft makeshift tools and cook using ingredients that others may not know the properties of.
Weaknesses: Ever since he was young, Sylric has always been quite sickly. He falls ill easily, often leading to a lack of concentration and a general feeling of weakness in his muscles. It can also leave him feeling exhausted, even to the point of being virtually unable to move. Additionally, his mild fear of fire means that he will often refuse to go to certain locations, however it does not prevent him from certain basic activities. Lastly, his headstrong nature and his insistence that his way is always the best and most efficient way can often lead to his downfall - not usually in battle, but in situations in which he has to escape tight areas.
Appearance(Pic preferable):
Background: Life has not been kind to Sylric. He was born into one of the poorest areas, to two parents who could hardly keep their jobs. As such, he was required from a young age to help with repairs, and maintain the house by doing chores. The intensity of his work would often leave him with many injuries, but, since there was a lack of money in the household, they could not afford anything to ease his pain.

It was at the age of 5 that he was stricken with his first illness. His strong-willed nature meant that he attempted to power on through it, but soon he found he was unable to do anything, and was forced into bed purely because of his inability to get up.

His constant illnesses placed strain on the already troubled household. With three other siblings, Sylric had no choice but to forgo medication. This would often cause him great suffering, but he was determined that he would not cause any more problems by asking for such an expensive thing.

Throughout his early life, this was the pattern that was everything that he did. Spend a few months working, then a few months struggling with a sickness.

At the age of 14, his father encouraged him to leave. Already, two of his siblings had starved to death over the course of several winters. With him, he took his younger sister. Since that moment that he said goodbye, he has never seen his parents since. He has returned to the house once before, only to find that the inhabitants had vanished.

Between 16 and 19, Sylric joined a group of bandits. He was dissatisfied with life, wanting to do more than just slowly die. But his main motivation that he found himself in a similar situation to his parents - with no money, he could not afford things that his sister desperately needed, and so this was his method of earning it.

It was at this time that Sylric discovered his passion for battle. Although never taking part in anything particularly honourable - he was frequently sent out with groups that would pillage small towns - he found that combat was the one thing that brought him joy. Though the way that things were run in the bandit group did not please him, especially as the leader was somewhat abusive towards those below him.

As such, Sylric decided to escape. He tried everything in his power to do so without any repercussions, but his sister was captured. He did not turn back for her, knowing that he would only get himself in the same situation. This event has permanently changed Sylric - it shadows his thoughts every day, and, as such, he vows that he will return and find a way to release her from captivity.

During his time without belonging to any group, Sylric heard of the Knights of Alanthia, through a conversation in a tavern. It was at that moment, he made the decision that the best way for him to enact his revenge on the bandits would be to become a knight.

Nowadays, Syrlic does not speak of what he has experienced. He fears that mentioning his past will ruin his chances to become a knight. His thoughts are mostly on the future, and starting his life anew. But one thing will always stick with him - he must return for his sister.
