No worries, it was quite clear that the answers were in her fluff. :) I'm excited to see who gets picked.
Sorry, my answers were woven into her backstory, so not clear for applying. Here they are for clarification: 1. Were you born in Korvosa, are you new to the city or are you simply a visitor there? Born and raised. Estranged daughter of a minor Korvosan Arbiter, blending in to the city to be away from her family. 2. What traits have chosen and how do they tie into your backstory - I'd like more than a mechanic justification for your choices. Reactionary (+2 Init), Fast-Talker (+1 Bluff). These fit with her family's intolerance of her and her constant need to talk her way out of blame (even though it probably WAS her who set the family cat's tail aflame). 3. What will your character contribute to the party mechanically? A little spark (she likes fire just a tad), a little charm here and there (she knows how to wink when she needs to) and as an Arbiter's daughter she knows a thing or two about staying out of trouble.
Miraborn was tired of the stifling manor, tired of her extended family, and especially tired of hearing how much she might embarrass her father, an Arbiter, if she kept up with these silly magic tricks. "She certainly doesn't take after our side of the family", her father's brood would say. "No wonder her mother left", they'd whisper... Until Miraborn would zap her cousins when they squinted their eyes at her, or lifted their noses in contempt. She couldn't be more estranged from her father, so why bother trying to be the good girl? Maybe she shouldn't have caught their house on fire of course, accident though it was. And she wasn't about to stick around to find out what would happen when they discovered it was her, so she's shed the finery and joined up with the Korvosa guard with all intent of blending in, cast a few cantrips here and there to help out, and earn enough coin to leave Korvosa for good to find out where her mother really went so many years ago. -- Appearance: An average girl, pretty to some, and with pale blue eyes that always seem to smile. She doesn't quite remember her natural hair color as she's apt to dye it various wild shades (particularly because it annoyed her father). Posting frequency: I've never played in a PBP before, actually, but I can easily keep pace with the rest of the group I'm sure. That's the beauty of desk jobs. ;) Timezone: Indiana, EST Concept: As hinted to in the background above, Sorcerer will be my class, though I haven't decided on bloodline yet. Human though. Traits: Reactionary (+2 Init), Fast-Talker (+1 Bluff). Per her backstory, these fit with her family's intolerance of her and her constant need to talk her way out of blame (even though it probably WAS her who set the family cat's tail aflame). -- 20 point buy: STR: 10 DEX: 14 CON: 14 INT: 13 WIS: 12 CHA: 16
Concept was there but a little buried. Human sorcerer. Looking forward to this.

Maybe she shouldn't have caught their house on fire of course, accident though it was. And she wasn't about to stick around to find out what would happen when they discovered it was her, so a year ago Miraborn set out to grow up a little in the world outside Korvasa. As much as she'd hate to admit it, she did miss her home, and so she decided to come back if only for a week or so. Maybe she could finally find out more about her mother and why she left so many years ago. -- Appearance: An average girl, pretty to some, and with pale blue eyes that always seem to smile.
