A New Dawn~Ranger's Apprentice Rp~Accepting

[WilloweWolf]

It's been ten years since Will, Horace, Alyss, George, and Evanlyn returned to Araluen from Nihon-Ja. Will now has an apprentice, and a wife, and times are changing. Ember, a former female baron, has taken up residence in Morgarath's former stronghold, the Mountains of Rain and Night. She's amassing an army strong enough to overcome all but the strongest and bravest warriors in Araluen, and it's up to the Rangers to stop it. Will they succeed? Or will Araluen fall?

This is set in Redmont fief and... Well... Araluen(fief-ish)

Rules:
No cussing/swearing.
No god modding, and no perfect charries. Everybody has a flaw.
No dating/crushing on your own charries.

Name:Natalie Brook
Age:16
Gender:Female
Personality:rp out
Appearance:Natalie has long dark hair and grey eyes. Some argue that Natalie's hair is brown, but it isn't. Her hair is black, but it looks brown in bright light. Natalie is tall and slender, giving her a fragile look. But to those who know her, she's nothing of the sort.
Rank:Apprentice Ranger
History:She grew up in her father's household. When she was six, her father was drunk one day when Natalie accidentally bonked into him, causing him to press a knife into her throat(very, drunk, indeed). Natalie's mother threatened to kill herself if he killed Natalie. He let Natalie go, but killed Amelia. When he turned to kill Natalie, she was gone. She had gone to her room after seeing her mother die, packed a few things, and gone out the window. She grabbed a horse from the stables, saddled him, and rode away at a dead gallop, knowing she would die if she stayed. She snuck on-board a ship going to Hibernia with her twin sister and older brother, who had followed her. They somehow got adopted by Halt's twin brother, the 'king'. Emily and Jordan managed stay in Hibernia, but Natalie was riding one day when she was captured by Skandians and taken as a slave in Erak's yard. She was quite the rebel, and frequently got punished for it. Natalie finally managed to escape to Araluen after a year, and was taken into the Ward by Baron Arald. She spent nine years there, forming close bonds with her female age-mates, twins Natasha and Sherry Blackfield and Sophia Thlandel. She later learned that her siblings died, though she had no way of knowing it was amoeba.

NAME: John Clark

AGE: 30 (by book 10. ~45 by book 12)

NATIONALITY: Gallic

If they live in Araluen, what Fief do they live in?: Norgate

OCCUPATION: Ranger

GENDER: Male

EYE COLOR: Green

HAIR COLOR: Black

HEIGHT: 5'8"

WEIGHT: At one time he was almost unbearably thin, though now he's a bit more middle-of-the-road.

PERSONALITY: He's a rather vengeful man

STRENGTHS: He's patient, and can usually mask his emotions to keep a scene from breaking out.

FLAWS: As stated, he's extremely vengeful. He's quick to anger and slow to forgive, especially if you do something he REALLY doesn't like (E.G do what Will did in book 5 and give someone off to slavery.)

ABILITIES: As a Ranger, he's a master of unseen movement, has more than proficient skill with the Longbow, and the two knives every Ranger carries. In addition, he's rather good at housekeeping, even if he doesn't particularly care for it.

BACKSTORY: This boy was taken at a young age by a Skandian raiding party. In his life as a punching bag, he had learned that in order to not be beaten to the point of unconsciousness, he'd have to learn how to hide. He got really good at that. So good, in fact, that he was able to escape.

He stumbled into Araluen after stowing away on another ship, eventually finding himself in Norgate. Naturally, not even being an adult yet and just now discovering this place existed, he had nothing. So he stole. He got so good at it, in fact, that Norgate's Ranger, a different one from the 5th book's one, was called in to deal with the kid.

He was caught, of course, and spent a nice cold night in the dungeons while awaiting trial from the Baron. Not a fun place, I can tell you. When his trial came up, he basically told his whole life story there. Not much, of course, considering he hasn't had much of a life up to this point. The Baron, deciding to have mercy on the kid, let him off easy, only spending about a month more in said dungeon. Norgate's Ranger decided that he had too good of talents to go to waste, and trained him to be a Ranger as well.

In Will's 3rd year he took care of the assessment, and he was very pleased with the boy's progress. He was even able to empathize with his experience in Skandia, being in the same position for much of his life.

All of this changed when Will became a full-fledged Ranger.

It was fine... Up until he found out what Will had done with John Buttle.

That year, after the Gathering, while Will was on his way home to Seacliff, an arrow just so happened to find itself right in front of Will. John gave him a warning, saying "If you ever do that again, you can be sure the tree isn't my target."

Will understood this warning very well, though he was curious as to how he found out. But John never ended up forgiving the guy, not until about 3 weeks after Will married Alyss. He simply felt the grudge was held long enough, and Will didn't seem to be doing that ever again. So he both forgave will for his actions with Buttle, and apologized for nearly shooting him. Will wasn't exactly happy to see the guy again, but it was water under the bridge at that point.


Unfortunately I have no face claim for them. Sorry.
