-----------STORY-----------
------------------------------
(Most of this is from the movie's intro)
Twenty rings were made;
Three to the Elves;
Seven to the Dwarf-Lords;
And nine, nine rings to the race of Men.
But in secret, the dark lo rd sauron forged in-secret a master ring.
(Year 3434 of the Second Age)
But one by one, the free lands of Middle-Earth fell into darkness under the power of the one ring. But there were some who resisted. A last alliance of men and Elves marched against the armies of Mordor on the slopes of Mount Doom. Victory was near. But the power of the Ring could not be undone. Endil, father of Isildur, was killed by Sauron-- and it was in this moment when Isildur, son of the King, took up his father's sword. He cut the Ring from Sauron's hand, and Sauron, the enemy of the free peoples of Middle-Earth was defeated. The ring passed to Isildur, who had this once chance to destroy all evil forever. But the hearts of men and easily corrupted. Isildur kept the ring, and was ambushed by orcs. It fell into a river, lost for a long time. Until when chance came, it ensnared a new barer. Smeagol, also known as Gollum, found the ring, and crawled into the caves of the Misty Mountains. And there it was kept.
The third age has arrived. Gondor is left with only a Steward, Denethor, son of Ecthelion. He has two sons, Faramir and Boromir, which he favors Boromir(and he is very mean :c). Rohan's king is corrupted by Grima Wormtounge, Saruman's puppet. The Elves are still quite peaceful and the dwarves lives are normal. For the time will soon come when a Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins will change the course of th future.
---------------------------------
---------------------------------
-----------INFO----------------
---------------------------------
This takes place 3 years before Bilbo finds the ring and sets off with Thorin. The Shire is peaceful and the races around Middle-Earth are even scarcely aware of their excistance. As Theoden, king of Rohan is being corrupt by Grima, they are left nearly powerless leaving them vonurable, besides Rohirrim who is Rohan's best defense, leaded by Eomer. Elves are at peace mostly, and Moria has been taken. Saruman has not yet revealed he is a worker of Sauron. BARAD-DUR IS NOT YET CREATED! The Wicth-King of Angmar is hiding in Durabor(or whatever) in Mirkwood. Same with Sauron though he is a shadow, 'the necromancer' they call him in the H0BBIT movie.

Th moved to Archet at his first birthday, seeking to get away from city life. But that wasn't all, on his bithday, every year, his father would take him out hunting.

I wake up in my tent. Mother campfire from the last night is now smoke. I take down the tent and walk away from the campsite. I was very close to Combe, around 327 feet. I take out a small piece o bread and take a bite of it, then put it back. I write on the ground in runes,

N@me:Reithar Aeiron
@ge: 107
Race: Elf
Faction: Mirkwood
Class: Archer, Pew.
Boy/Girl: Boy.
Bio: Being raised up in the Mirkwood, he was immeditally taught the bow by his father. His mother was never mentioned, nor did they ever mention any being on her. That is one of the few things he doesn't know still in his years. He at one point, a spider broke through and grabbed him when he was 43 and he was unarmed at the time while trying to keep up to his father. During that time, his father soon caught up to the spider with his bow. His father shot an arrow into the head. But, it was soon learned that he was poisoned. Not a tranquilized, (Lost the word for it) but in a slow dying poison. They were too far away for help and his father soon passed away and leaving his bow and wealth as a heirloom. The archery training he got saved him plenty of times in the near future of when that happened while traveling. He managed to make it back into an abandoned village of men outside the forest. He took it to heart as when he wasn't going back and soon head to Dale. There he began wood working on bows and nearly unbreakable handles for tools. Though, one man somehow broke it by smashing it on multiple ale tankards for 'fun.'
Talents: Wood working on bows and he can multiple things involving wood. A perfected archer. (Hence why he took up wood working.
Weapons(up to 4): A bow that has multiple curves inward and outward from where the wearer points, it has elegant carved symbols into the bow that seem to bring the attention to that. He also carried a shortsword that is a typical Elven crafted sword that has numerous carvings in the handle and blade.
Inventory(up to 10): A elegant quiver that holds multiple arrows. Not saying really an exact number because I can know that can bite me back, but it can hold whatever seems reasonable to me later. Things depend on what happens and such.
Armor description: He is often seen covered by a dark green hood and most of his body is covered by the same green material. Besides that, he has a armor layer of iron instead of the a more standing out armor. The iron does appear intead of being inside the clothes just described. It holds the cloak together in a sense. The iron covers most of his chest and waist with elegant carving expected from an elf. The other iron spots are, wrists shoulders, knees, Leather boots rather than iron because Iron makes more noise. Then leather straps to hold other key locations.
Physical description: He stands at a height of 5'6 and has prominent features that an elf would appear to be like ears and on how Elfs appear to be beautiful. He is slim, but athletic once again. Enough to draw his sword and fight for seemingly endless periods of time and draw his bow. He however has brown hair that is put into one stream down right between his neck and right shoulder. His skin color is tan. I think that is the rest worth mentioning.
Yeerz or yearz. Oh well, z's make everything better. |

@ruf
Re-do please. Here are some things you should work on:
1. Try getting a more fitting name. And if that is a surname, can you put the actual name of your character?
2. Bio should be longer. On this say how his life was, such as where he grew up, anything special to him, etc.
3. Make your physical description a little more detailed. Add hair color, hair style, etc, even if its not visible. Include your height in this also.
(BTW, Inventory is items such as food, water, survival things, etc) |
