If you're looking forward RPing as a Bard here's a thread listing who has done it before you or is going to. Check what it says to make sure you can make an original character without accidentally copying their style.

For people posting here:
Please try and follow this model.

- Name
- Model (race, gender, face model)
- Link to Profile (if you have one in Characters section)
- In which part of RP will you be a Bard (use expansions names for an approximate landmark, or ‘occasionally’ if you plan to switch job often, or ‘retired’ if you don't plan to use the job again any soon)
- Type of attendance (regular, cameo, side-character)
- Story of your job in a briefing (How did your character become a Bard and what has he done as a BRD since before meeting the group IC. Be brief and save details for the Profile section)
- As a Bard in the RP group (write what have you done with the group IC that would have to do with your job.)
- What will you do in the future (write little spoilers of plans regarding your job so that others know and won't anticipate you.)
- Appearance (describe the standard look of your character, or post pics)


For the readers:
If you find some of the needed informations are missing, please try and contact the specific character in-game for details. ^^

To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.

Name: Kenjii

Model: Hume M 1B

Link to Profile: Click here.

In which part of RP will you be a Bard: Wings of the Goddess, and maybe occasionally after that.

Type of character attendance: Regular.

Story of your job in a briefing: Kenjii inherited a nice singing voice from his mother, but unlike his brother he never shown any interest in singing, and after Zenji turned mute he surely didn't want to offend him by stealing his dream of becoming a bard.
After accidentally separating from the group upon the defeat of Alexander in Aht Urhgan though, Kenjii has an encounter with a Cavernous Maw in Rolanberry Fields.
He ends up swallowed, and Atomos eats his memory away.
When he wakes up, Kenjii has absolutely no reminiscence about himself or the world he comes from, and believes to be just a normal person of the Shadowreign Era.
He meets Aeruhat in Grauberg, that takes care of him for short time and gives him some Eastern clothes.
Kenjii then spends his time at the Witchfire Glen, enchanted by the Sidhe, and there meets Sephirya, his mother, but won't recognize her.
Talking with her, Kenjii is convinced that he must do something to help the others in this moment of strife, but unaware of his dormant fighting skills he decides that the only way he can do so is with music, as Sephirya recognized a gift for the trade of a Bard in him.
He then becomes a Bard and joins the campaign battles as a freelance, waiting for someone, or something, to help him recovery his memory…

As a BRD in the RP group: Kenjii as a BRD will have almost an opposite personality than his original self, though his mind is not split in two alters as Saerun.
When he meets the group and is told who he really is, he initially refuses to accept believing that neither him nor the group of adventurers are actually coming from the future.
With time though, and going through several events, he realizes that Avina is saying the truth, and will do everything in his power to recover his memories.

What will you do in the future: Kenjii is not a Bard yet, so this is already a part of his future.

Appearance: Kenjii will wear Sha'ir Manteel set when he'll first meet the group in the past, though I would like him to eventually change his look to something like this:
