| Julius LarkYoung Julius in his formal attire. OVERVIEW- Spoiler:
Full Name: Julius Amadeus Lark III Race: Human Nationality: Occitan, Ruetten Sex: Male Age: 67 Height: 5' 8" Eye Colour: Green Skin Tone: Pale BIOGRAPHY- Spoiler:
Julius was born into the Occitan nation-state of Ruetten, which is itself a vassal of the nation-state of Vinberg. A young man, white as snow with jet black hair. Born into a dirt-poor family of blacksmiths and gunsmiths, Julius worked the forge from twelve to eighteen years old, when he was pressed into military service.
On Julius' eighteenth birthday, in MoP 741, he was pressed into miltary service for thirty years, taking his father's Vinberg-Ruetten Type 11 Matchlock, he was sent into a Firearm's Infantry division of the National Army of Vinberg-Ruetten. During this time of peace, the military was used to enforce the laws of the land outside of the cities. Bandits, rapists, and murderers were all within the jurisdiction of these "Military Police," conflicts which often ended in bloodshed and death for both parties. Many confrontations occured over the thirty years of service that Julius served, and he got many a promotion, first to Gefreiter, then Obergefreiter, Hauptgefreiter, Stabsgefreiter, Oberststabsgefreiter and towards the end of his service in the infantry, Unteroffizieranwärter.
His thirty years had ended and the middle-aged Julius was dismissed from service. With no other skills than that of shooting, Julius sought employment outside of Occitan, and travelled into Pycheko where he was employed as a personal guard of a wealthy Pychekan businessman. Spending about ten years with the man, Julius aged to the ripe age of sixty-seven when he was dismissed of his position and sent off to his own accord.
So, Julius headed where many of the world's anomalies go, Surna, Catalyst of Fates. INVENTORY- Spoiler:
Vinberg-Ruetten Type 11 Matchlock Musket A musket based on Westerwald-Leoben design.
Vinberg-style Halfplate A set of half-plate engineered for greater mobility.
Light leather jerkin A jerkin worn under halfplate.
341 Shillings Assorted Sanctimonian coins.

| I will say now that planetouched are ridiculously powerful. Everything about how you have played combat in the past strongly discourages an accept.
Being capable of summoning fire on a whim without weaving is just too much for a normal character. I had to be careful about how I specified my powers with Reis because she is powerful period, even after toning her powers down severely.
In your case, I have rarely seen a good combat character that you didn't powergame or play with unrealistic combat.
I wouldn't mind if the person was just talented in fire magic, but planetouched is almost a no-no. I am not saying it can't be done, but keep in mind that you really don't need them to be planetouched. | |

| I don't think you can be Planetouched with two different things, such as light and shadow. I think you can only be Planetouched for one and one only. Other than that I have never seen you combat roleplay because I am never on. And as for Pheonix's comment, Planetouched are really powerful, keep that in mind. | |

Pretty sure you have to be a devote of Shar to use shadow magic, or at least have Her grace. | |

| The character if not mistaken can use Shadow magic, but can't be Planetouched within it, considering you can only be Planetouched in one element. Or at least that is what I was told. | |

| I would like to help put my opinion in, but could someone answer me as to what exactly being planetouched means? I can't seem to find it in the forums. | |

| Looking at old biographies. Let's rehash this one.
Sixty-seven and wearing a half-plate hauberk? Damn grandpa, you got da velcros! In seriousness, he probably shouldn't be hobbling around in the half-plate. Not that he 'couldn't' per say, but he would probably be at a greater risk of injury in it, due to being older, and more frail. Similarly, it would probably hamper him more so due to his age.
Second... magic? Uhm, helping Pac Man with his characte,r I learned about Vinberg. I don't think Occitan overly approves of magery, and Vinberg is hardcore Occitan traditionalism/militarism. Secondly, I think we would've seen a little bit about it in his backstory; unless, he's like magic with Surge powers and kinda kept it underwraps.
EDIT:: Read the most recent post right above mine. Is magic scrapped all together? If so, I could easily give this an accept. Basically just foxy grandpa with a frilly shirt and an old rifle. | |

Not sure how I feel about this char right now, actually. I have 5 that I'm trying to push along... Between Selena and Laura there's not really much RP for Carlisa, Lai'ara and Oph'elie... | |
