Alt Application: Delervin Carnthwel
By: Fishmoth Date: January 21, 2020, 4:13 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
- How did you learn about the Sixty Thieves? So far, just
rumours in the Drag about its former occupants.
- What is your character's name and race? Delervin Carnthwel,
Forsaken Male Human.
- Why do you and your character seek to join the Sixty Thieves?
While he isn't kind-hearted by any margin, he doesn't feel at
home with the atrocities committed by the Forsaken. He'd rather
be a valiant defender, or do something 'good' with his unlife.
His moral codes are murky at best and remain clear only to
himself. Apparently, he has no qualms with stealing. Perhaps due
to already seeing himself as an outcast.
- Tell us about your character's background and how they
became/are becoming a criminal Delervin was an idealistic young
squire. Unfortunately, he fell in love with his rogueish best
friend, Garyswald. The two men shared a night of warmth, but
Delervin's guilt lead him to tell Garyswald's wife about it.
Obviously, this lead to several fights - during the worst of
which, Garyswald's smoldering pipe dropped from his mouth from a
heavy right hook - straight into a broken lantern. The resulting
fire cost Delervin his life. His new beginning has left Delervin
with a lot of time to contemplate about his honour and mistakes.
- What kind of skills does your character have? He has slightly
magical, made-for-him armour that was always his pride. It is
slightly resistant to elements and wear, but its enchantments
and components must be maintained and periodically remade,
leading to the armour being very expensive to maintain. With it,
Delervin feels invincible and like himself. Without it, he is
just a scrawny, thin boy, as dead as his ideals. He also has a
limited knowledge of herbalism and alchemy, to be able to find
required herbs to bring to the people maintaining his armour and
making his sword oils. Due to having a lot of time to spend,
he's also picked up some card and dice games, but has never in
his life thought about cheating in them.
- How powerful is your character? As someone who has been
specifically instructed in combat, he can hold the line and
possibly survive. Delervin can fight with a sword, axe, lance,
halberd, spear and all combinations of those. He likes to think
of himself as a warmachine, but what part of that is his armour
and what is past training, who knows. Depending on rules and
rolls, he might be able to hold back enemies a good while, but I
don't think he would carve a path of blood. He is intended to be
a classic warrior, with just plate armour and defensive / arms
stances.
- How would you define conflict in RP, and how do you feel about
consequences? I wanted to write something here, but then didn't.
- Do you accept character death? I want it. Survival is nothing
without risks.
- What would your character's nickname be? Whisper.
- Anything else you'd like to share about your character or
yourself? Ruleswise, I intend the armour to give Delervin stat
bonuses. The way it works is that I've made him a statsheet
using regular rules - but that sheet is when he is wearing
armour. He loses stats when he isn't wearing it. Some bruisers
we've had have been good because of their skill, training,
background or magic. Delervin is good because he has his plate
and training in using it and various weapons.
- Story or IC letter (optional) I would've loved to write one,
but due to IC circumstances, I don't know how it'd be delivered
or how he'd know where to send it. So I think he'll write one to
hand in person.

Hi there, and thank you for taking the time to apply.
The rest of us officers don't seem to have anything that we feel
we need to ask about your character or the application, and
thus...
Approved! You know the drill from here.
