Canon Character Application
My name is Dark Fenrir and I am 14 years old. I want to join this site because Romano has been ‘asking’ me to join although I’m interested in this as well. I have been roleplaying for only a few months and sadly, I roleplay as my own character and I normally post between 100 words or more although it’s up to the situation mark. Here is my application:
Character name: Arthur Kirkland
Age: More than 1000 years old. Although his physical appearance is 23 years old.
Appearance: When people see him for the first time, what they noticed first is his bushy eyebrows. Some people call them ‘black caterpillar’. He also has disheveled blonde hair and emerald eyes. He’s not really what people call ‘well-built’ but he shouldn’t be underestimated because of that.
What Arthur usually wears is formal attire, like a suit. He will wear something that’s more… casual if the situation calls for it.
Personality: He is stubborn, and can get worried with the simplest things. He also likes to give sarcasm as well. But… if you sum his personality into one word, he’s a tsundere. He also like cooking but he never realizes that his cooking is bad. He likes embroidery as well.
Occupation: A medium. This occupation is a bit… unique and dangerous as well. In this occupation, he can let a spirit go into his body so he can gain some advantages in battle and he also can control the element that the spirit has. But, he can’t let spirit go into his body many times or many spirits go into his body at once, because that will led to where his body will be controlled by the spirit. His weapon of choice is a spell book. Although he use a gun at times.
Strengths: He’s good with embroidery. He also quite good at reading atmosphere and he know when to stop talking and when to tell the truth outright. He also knew when to loosen the rules.
Weaknesses: Never eat his cooking. Unless you want to get stomachache. When he’s too angry or is bickering with someone, he usually won’t notice any danger until the danger is right in front of him.
Backstory: Arthur still remembered his first memory. Free. But alone. He’s small at that time, and his brothers bully him almost all the time. He still remembers when he’s under Rome’s rule. Although he becomes free again after some time, Rome conquered him again for the second time. When he’s under Rome’s rule, he’s separated from his older brother, Scotland. After he’s reunited again with his brother, his country is under many kind of ruler that’s making his memory a bit blurry about that time.
Later, he’s under the Vikings and whilst his king and countrymen fought hard, he still fall under his rule for a long time. He still remember when he’s under Denmark and Norway. After more than one hundred years, he managed to become free from oppressor again.
What is the most painful memory he has is the Black Plague. It arrived in his country suddenly and left as fast as it come. A third to half of his population was wiped by the plague and sometimes he thinks that he still feel the pain of the plague.
During the Elizabethan era is his golden days. He managed to defeat the ‘Spanish Invincible Armada’ with privateer and he still remembers being a pirate.
And during his time as the ‘British Empire’ is his most fond memory and also his most hated memory. He’s fond of it when America is small, and dependent mostly to him. He loves him so much. Until he raised the tax and put taxes on many things that things started going to hell. And what hurt him the most is when America left him.
During his civil war is when he didn’t really know what happens. Everything is blurry at that time. He can’t ever remember what he done that time. From what he heard from other countries, he’s praising the monarchy at one time and hated monarchy with everything he got the next second.
During the World War One, he’s allied with Russia and France. And America was neutral in the beginning before interfering the war. Later, in the Second World War, he’s in the Allied Force, with America, France, Russia and China. And America was neutral at the beginning too. He even go as far as claiming that he is from other country when he came to England in the Battle of Britain.
Now, England just relaxing himself since he has time for it. He also spent his time reading his spell books and searching for a new one.
Sample Post: Arthur walked in the street silently, he noticed there’s only a few people out. Well, who can blame them? We don’t know when Germany will attack again.
Just after he finished thinking that, the alarm blared. He cursed and tried to go to the nearest air shelter. Before he’s even able to move, he felt extreme pain. He clutched his sides and hissed. It felt damp already. He walked slowly since he’s forced to lean against the wall for support. Everything around him is becoming blurry the more he walked. Blood continued to go out from his wound. He knew the shelter is just around this place… But, before he knew what’s happening he fall to the ground and his body refused to do his commands. He had no choice, so he tried to look to the sky. It’s a good weather… Such a shame that Germany attacked today. I can’t enjoy the rarest weather in London.
The bloods still go out from his wounds. Although it’s still bleeding, the blood already slowed down. He felt tired. Darkness started to crept into his vision. He tried to stay awake, but all of his effort is futile. He let out a shuddering breath before he let the darkness overcame him.
(I get that medium idea from Romano. Just need to tell you all that. And America, Romano has been telling me you are very happy when I reserve England. But, please. Don’t let your happiness cloud your judgment. No matter how much I want to roleplay as England, if I’m not good enough, I don’t want to. But… I wonder if my sample post is okay…)
