Do not post in this thread! Only users who have had their public character profile approved by welian may post here.
Character creation rules
The private profile is the secret version of your character's profile (or at least, as secret as you make it). Any plot twists you want for your character need to be on this sheet, so that I can plan accordingly and incorporate your character into the setting to the best of my ability. This profile should be written in third person.
This is the public character profile that will be ultimately posted in this thread. It is very short, and written in first person (from your character's point of view). Because of this, not all information may be true. Your character might lie about their height or weight, or how much they have accomplished in life. These are real documents that exist in the story - the matchmakers have each marriage candidate write a little bit about themselves, and these papers (parchment, really) are collected for the other matchmakers and candidates to read - like a fantasy version of the personal classified ads! Or are some of you too young for that?
Supporting characters don't have the backstory of being interviewed by the matchmaker and having an autobiographical essay for all to see, but they still need to fill this out because I'm the GM and I said so.
Don't worry about BBcode or text styling, I'll take care of that. However, if you're feeling adventerous, the BBCode is in the next post![/DIV][/DIV]

Character creation rules
- All members of the noble families are human, though some families might claim to have non-human ancestors.
- Every player can start with two characters, however, for the beginning of the RP, only one character can be a marriage candidate
- If you have any wild plot ideas, run them by welian.
- Feel free to be a smidge wacky. Also feel free to be the straight man to someone's comedy routine.
- Images are optional, but a written description is mandatory.

- Name

- Role or job
- Skills
- Life goals
- Personality
- Biography
- Description of appearance
- Image (optional)
- William Windseer
- Male
- Forty-seven
- Pthalia
- A senior librarian of the Royal Study
- Skilled at calligraphy, cartography, and chasing gnomes out of the gardens.
- Ol' Billy here would love nothing more in life that to be left alone for a year or two so that he can finally finish translating this one ancient map of the North Sea. If he could manage that, then he'll surely be recognized by the King of Pthalia, and maybe then his elderly mother would stop nagging him about grandchildren.
- A bit of a cranky introvert, he gets irritable and even downright twitchy if you spend too much time in the library. He's quite suspicious of visitors after how many adventurers have attempted to steal scrolls and tomes from the Royal Study. He's very particular about things being neat and orderly. He's not OCD though, just a control freak.
- William is the oldest and only son of a witch and a carpenter. He's felt the pressure since a young age to be successful and provide for his seven sisters. They're all grown and have children now, but it's not enough for his mother - she insists on having the Windseer family name passed down another generation. William doesn't have the heart to inform her that he hates children. He also doesn't find it necessary to share with anyone that he enjoys long moonlit walks with the library groundskeeper and in fact would prefer that such a friendship stay under wraps lest people get any strange ideas.
- Will is tall and thin, and his bright white hair makes him look several years older than he really is. His dark brown eyes don't quite look in the same direction, and his left hand is mildly scarred from the Great Gnome War of 1347.

$Charactername, $rank/job/etc of $kingdom
- Three bullet points
- To highlight something cool about them
- Or something noteworthy they've done
And then a paragraph to really sell it, try to keep under 200 words, unless your character is a notorious motormouth. Be serious, be silly - just be in characters!
