He is intelligent and has a thirst for knowledge that propels his curiosity. Leonard is also brave and loyal to his friends. Though he posess some degree of patience, he is agile and active and don't like to laze around too long.

History: Leonard's father is an elf from Raiaera and his mother came from Salvar. Leonard's parents first met in an inn at the city of Salvar. His mother was a thieving human who was one of the innkeeper's daughters. His father was an elf from a middle class trading family and was staying at the inn. In the middle of the night, Leonard's mother tried to steal from his father's room but was caught since elves have better hearing than humans. She manage to flee before he could find out who was trying to steal from him - But not before he gave her a jagged wound on her arm that would eventually become scarred.

A few years later they met again in the city of Coroné where each of them were on the same quest with a separate group of adventurers. The two groups of adventurers decided to band together since they had a common goal of killing a warrior-mage who was running amok. When the band of adventurers found the warrior-mage a fight ensued during which the mage was killed. Unfortunately although the goal was achieved, only Leonard's parents survived the fighting. During their adventuring they had fallen in love with each other; Even though he saw the scar and figured out she was the thief at the inn. They returned to Coroné to collect the reward and then decided to settle down as traders. The couple has four sons. Leonard is their youngest son. His parents have apprenticed him to a Master Blacksmith so he could learn the smithing trade. But he would prefer to go adventuring and see the world.

hey there and welcome to Althanas, I'll be reviewing this profile for you today and get you on your way to the site!

Just a few things to note:

~Things like swimming, climbing, fire making, reading, and writing aren't necessary unless it's multiple languages or something.

~If you could give me relative skill levels for the other skills, like you did for smithing. You can have one above average, a couple at average or lower, and a one or two below average.

~If you could please tell me what armor you have that is leather, like a breastplate or that it covers your chest.

~The final thing to note is if you could please give me what the equipment you have is made of: metals can be steel or iron for level 0. Need it for the knife and hatchet.

Hehe, it looks like I'm going to have to drop some of the skills I've listed.

Relative skill levels for the other skills: quite skilled in swordsmanship; average in falconry and hunting; basic skill level in unarmed combat and archery. He was taught lockpicking by his mother and practiced it once during the teaching but never used the skill.


Armor: it's a tanned soft leather tunic armor that protects the shoulders and upper torso but leaves the arms bare. The vambraces (arm bracers) are made from tanned hard leather.

Haha, yeah, but it's not a big thing for sure. I just assume that things like reading and writing are necessary only to write in if you can't do it, or your exceptional at it (such as with multiple languages or somesuch).

Just edit those thing into the first post and you'll be good to go.
