first character so i apologize in advance for everything wrong with it


Name: Shamus Relthenor

Date & Place of Birth: 80 A.F. Relthenor (skye

Height/Weight/Physical Description: 5’ 8” 130 lbs. slight build. Green eyes, bright red hair

Citizenship/Ethnic Origin: Island of Skye

Parents' Names & Occupations: Eli Relthenor and Lord Relthenor

Other Family Members: Marcus (older brother) Eryn (younger sister).

Friends' Names & Occupations: various drunks, vagabonds and flyers he’s met from his travels

Education: all that was befitting a lords son. Till he ran away then the streets were his school.

Occupation/Employer: independent flyer captain

Social Class: middle class

Salary: dependent on the month

Community Status: Smuggler

Job-Related Skills: mechanics (flyer), bartering, smuggling

Political Beliefs/Affiliations: dealing with the Jinta family, Yusef family. Member of the engineers union, association of mages.

Hobbies/Recreations: working with mechanics, practicing Psichoran. flying

Personal Qualities (imagination, taste, etc.): very imaginative especially with mechanics

Ambitions: several a day

Fears / Anxieties / Hang-ups: his family, he left under less-than-desirable terms.

Intelligence: fairly high

Sense of Humor: dry

Philosophy of Life (in a phrase): Life is a play we are the players and viewers. Lets make it a good show…

Strengths: He learned his fencing lessons well and was better than his teacher. due to his imagination his mechanical creations tend to be out of the ordinary often being more effecting, but almost as often not working as expected (mixed blessing). Shamus also is gifted with a straight face and quick wit that has talked him out of at least three deaths, and several painful encounters. Shamus is an accomplished flyer pilot, able to out manuver most pilots in a chase. he can also use psichoran, though is hard for him

Weaknesses: His "by the seat of your pants" attitude to life gets him into trouble [img]http://forums.legendsalliance.com/public/ALOT.png[/img]. causing him to rush in rather than think through possible solutions to his problems. although shamus loves his drink he can't drink more than a pint before he's completely drunk. his imagination and attitude toward life make using psichoran hard for him, requiring [img]http://forums.legendsalliance.com/public/ALOT.png[/img] of concentration on his part and also meaning that he will never be able to do much more than lift a 1/2lb object or move a switch and while he is sensitive to psichoran he will never be able to do any of the higher level mental broadcasting. he is amazingly disorganized which even though he can find what ever he's looking for, makes it almost impossible for others to follow his schematics, find things or understand his notes.

Bio: Shamus grew up the son of a Lord. in other words a drab and boring life, no excitement unless someone forgot formality and used the wrong spoon, no chance to learn the the things he wanted to learn (mechanics, gunfighting, and magic). He did enjoy fencing leasons but they never lasted long enough so he ran away, one day (his eighteenth birthday to be precise) while his family was visiting a dignitary off the island of skye he slipped away from them knowing they wouldn't miss him till they got home and realized that there was an empty seat at dinner. from then on he learned hard that life was not as easy as it had sounded from the grounds of Relthenor manor. when ever he could afford to he would learn about the practice of psichoran, or mechanics. eventually he "acquired" a flyer and began smuggling or flying, while taking jobs for the mechanics union or the association of mages. he's a good shot and learned fencing while living with his family.

Eh. Give him weaknesses that're a little more physical. Him being rash and susceptible to alcohol is a character trait more then a weakness that can be exploited by his enemies.

Community Status: Smuggler

Job-Related Skills: mechanics (flyer), bartering, smuggling

Political Beliefs/Affiliations: dealing with the Jinta family, Yusef family. Member of the engineers union, association of mages.he however steers clear of politicians to make sure he is not identified

Hobbies/Recreations: working with mechanics, practicing Psichoran. flying

Personal Qualities (imagination, taste, etc.): very imaginative especially with mechanics

Ambitions: several a day

Fears / Anxieties / Hang-ups: his family, he left under less-than-desirable terms.

Although he is a good fencer he is not very strong, being a nobles son means no real manual labor, which also means he uses lighter swords that are not very useful against heavily armed foes. He also sustained an injury to his left knee during a smuggling mission which while being only a slight annoyance durring a short fight makes any prolonged running, it putting lots of weight on it very difficult and painful for him

Original: yes

Name: Shamus Relthenor

Height/Weight/Physical Description: 5’ 8” 130 lbs. slight build. Green eyes, bright red hair. typicaly wears loose clothes with a flyers vest.


Strengths: He learned his fencing lessons well and was better than his teacher. due to his imagination his mechanical creations tend to be out of the ordinary often being more effecting, but almost as often not working as expected (mixed blessing). Shamus also is gifted with a straight face and quick wit that has talked him out of at least three deaths, and several painful encounters.

He also sustained an injury to his left knee during a smuggling mission which while being only a slight annoyance durring a short fight makes any prolonged running, it putting lots of weight on it very difficult and painful for him

Bio: Shamus grew up the son of a Lord, Faren Relthenor. In other words a drab and boring life, no excitement unless someone forgot formality and used the wrong spoon, his brother and he didn't even get into trouble, no chance to learn the the things he wanted to learn (mechanics, gunfighting, and magic).In addition to not being allowed to learn what he was interested in, He did virtually no manual labor which means he has very little strength. He did enjoy fencing leasons but they never lasted long enough so he ran away, one day (his eighteenth birthday to be precise) while his family was visiting a dignitary off the island of skye he slipped away from them knowing they wouldn't miss him till they got home and realized that there was an empty seat at dinner. After that he tried to avoid any official because his family was farely well known. From then on he learned hard that life was not as easy as it had sounded from the grounds of Relthenor manor. When ever he could afford to he would learn about the practice of psichoran, or mechanics. eventually he "acquired" a flyer and began smuggling or flying, while taking jobs for the mechanics union or the association of mages.However during one smuggling mission he botched his landing, causing his flyer to receive minor damage, but throwing Shamus from the cockpit, and smashing his knee between two of his cargo boxes.His injury makes it impossible for him to run for more than a few minutes at a time or to use fencing stances requiring prolonged use of his left knee. he's a good shot and learned fencing while living with his family.
