Title: Elissa Glawar


Karoline - November 15, 2005 12:09 PM (GMT)
Name: Elissa Glawar
Age: 800
Race: Elf

History: Hareth, Elissa's mother was married to her father Eldar, who was extremely wealthy. After a while they began to rival and fight since Eldar had a dominant and selfish personality, eventually resulting in a divorce short after her birth. Eldar married with another woman and produced a son, Thalion. Elissa's mother owns a little tavern in Riverdale, and they are not rich but they do what they can to be happy.
Eldar and Elissa never talk to each other, especially since he denies her as his own child, showing more than once he has no daughter. He refuses to even mention her name. Thalion and Elissa have no contact since her father sees her as a failure, and Thalion does exactly what Eldar tels him to. This is why Thalion and Elissa remain complete strangers to each other, pretending they don't know who each other are when they run into their sibling on the street. Elissa began to show at a young age that she was interested in swordfighting and is very good at it as well. Hareth signed Elissa up for lessons, and she was the best in her class.

She even started competing, but soon ended with a growl with her father and her brother. She and her brother had gone to final and her father tried to pay here to pull out of the contest. He said that she had no chance and that she was born to be a loser. She didn’t take the money and won the contest. It didn’t really make her more loved by her father, but she won a little respect from her brother. But they are still not talking to each other.
Now she is a traveller and likes to explore the world. And when she’s not travelling she helps out her mother with the tavern. For now she is exploring the areas around the shire

Kewl character ^_^ Though you could add some other things about her, like her appearance- It's nice to know how to picture a character ^^
Just a few observations...

Do you mean Rivendell? Or maybe it's somewhere you've made up...

Classes? Contests? Streets? Money? It sounds a little modern to me. Are you sure this is Middle-earth you're talking about here? :oddlook:

Try using a template like I do for my characters, it's easier to go by that sometimes. Usually I try to fill out a few sentences or something on:

Name:
Age:
Race:
Personality:
Appearance:
History:

[me, I usually just go overboard, but those are the basics. It helps in roleplay, believe me when I say it. I started to RP before I had figured out half the crap about Erelith, or even Varsis...haha Varsis was a total spur of the moment thing. >_< suprisingly, he turned out well. My point being though, it's hard to come up with everything spur of the moment in RP's sometimes. Okay, and speaking of which Atheniel, I still haven't figured out anything about the 'mark' on Erelith's back, remember how I said she had one a long time ago? Still no ideas. *shakes head*]

Ohh. One more thing, [for Atheniel] You know how I said I was going to put you in my story that I was writing? XD Mm..well it turns out apparantly so that aside Varsis and Erelith you're now another main character. Haha. ^_^ I didn't change much of Tiwele's character, I had to endow her with some magic however. [of course.] Haha, I bet Varsis feels left out of the magic circle. [Erelith has little bits.]

sorry about that.....made it during a lesson..but i´ts like thet say...if there is something wrong it means it can getr bettre.
well..here we go..

Name:elissa Glawar
Age:800
Race:elf
Personality:Talks a lot, but is not god with telling people how she feels.
Is very independet and likes to do things on her own.
Is not that kind of person you would like to have aginst you when she gets angry.
always keeps her weapons near her, a sign that she dosn´t trust people that easy.
the onlyone that knows how she feels and think is her mother.
Appearance:shows up in the RP when she is fallowing Erelith and Varsis for a reason only she knows.
History. Born and rased up in Rivendell. Her mother owns a little tavern there.
She also has a little halfbrother, but they dosn´t have any contact with eatch other.
She has a bad relationship with her father and dosn´t like talking about him our meantion his name.
she showed an early intrest for selfdefens and battles and started trainnig when she was 10. she is an expert with the bow and the sword and rarley loses a fight.
She likes travelling. under one of her tripps to Gondor she suddenly out of reatch for about a 5 years. many thought that she had died during an attack but there was no prof.She showed up back home after 5 years and you could see that she was diffrent. no one knew where she had been and she dindn´t tell anyone either.
but she has been having diffeculty to laugh and is constantly on the road travelling.
For not so long ago she resived a message from her mother with very bad news. she travelld to gondor, but what she did there is unknown. that was just before she started fallowing erelith and Varsis.




(what do you think of this one..be unest...if there is anything you think i should changtell me) (thanks for the tipps by the way..)

Nice, she's got a few characteristics Erelith has. :) Though, that's not to say they will get along ;) Erelith is just as hospitable to everyone. [so don't take it personally if she hates people hehe. She has such ''love'' for pretty much society in general.] Try going in depth a little about maybe what her hair color is, what kind of clothes does she wear? [and this is my own personal interest anyhow] Erelith isn't much for a dress, while Tiwele isn't inclined to wear what Erelith does it seems. So, I was just curious :)

Also, here's a few more ideas to think about. What makes your character peeved, really, really angry? Or, what is their deepest desire? If they could have whatever they wanted right then and there, what would it be? [thats hard to answer for my character, by the way. Hehe. It's a toughie. Erelith may want the death of her father, or perhaps something else...something...more. Power? Ohhh, I know. Control. She'd so want complete control over the things she can't have control over. Bah, I'll stop answering my own stupid questions while I'm ahead. Haha.]

well....elissa wan´ts to show her father that she is strong and is capable to do what ever she wish.that she dosn´t have to be a boy to be able to do things.
But most..that she wants to prove to her self that she dosn´t need anyone..
(it makes her very difficul to talk to,She is very lonley).

She has very darkbrown eyse( very close to black) and Brown hair.she is often dressed in ridding cloth.( she dosn´t wear a dress that often, but she really dosn´t have anything aginst dresses..she actually find them very pretty...but thats something she would never confess).

She has always been trying to get her fathers ettention and commendation.
she can talk to people, but never about what she really feels our think. so, the truth is that no one really knows her. and she wan´t that.

(The truth is that elissa is having serius problems from her tripp to Gondor. she is having problems knowig the right from wrong, making her,what people often say, a bad girl, lets say that sometimes she is on the wrong side.)

something that makes her angry is when people trys to tell her what to say our do.
our people that trys to put ther big noses in her business...
but somethhing that really makes her angry is when sommebody attacks her family..


if there is anything els you want to know..tell me..g2g

I like this version of Elissa a lot better :yesnod: It's up to you whether you would like to develop her more. Sometimes, you can get to know your character a whole lot more after roleplaying awhile with them. You can develop a sort of understanding for them (I developed a whole chunk of my character's history after roleplaying with her) :)
Some suggestions would be you condense all that in your last post with what you wrote before, and put them all under headings, as Ere' said, like
Appearance: (As in, what she looks like ;) )
Personality: (added to what you had before)
It might also help to run it through a spell checker in word or something, make it easier to understand ^^
Mind me asking what Elven race she is? ^_^

, I still haven't figured out anything about the 'mark' on Erelith's back
Ere', I think I have a hint of you telling me that (can't really remember :S). But an idea would be to make it hold some sort of revelation (can't think what though)... between her and her father? Wait, you never told me where her mother went, I don't think. Maybe it's a mark of some connection with her that we don't know about... or something that happened to her in the past.

well it turns out apparantly so that aside Varsis and Erelith you're now another main character.

Yay! I feel really special now XD I'm starting to get curious as to what it's about 8-)

Erelith - November 23, 2005 03:44 PM (GMT)
I do believe I said Ere's momther died in childbirth XD ...but perhaps I lied. [you can wait hehe]

Don't get me started on the whole 'elven race' thing...man do you know how incredibly long it took me to even sort out the different ones in my head before finding out I had to put down Moriquendi for her's? [lol, not to mention I think I haven't ever got the spelling down.]

Athéniel Egleriannen - November 26, 2005 11:34 AM (GMT)
I know how confusing that is- I was still trying to figure out all the races there were, and then there's also the fact that some obscure branches of Elves also haven Quenya names... like Nandor, which I had no idea was the same as the Green Elves (or, I could still be wrong) till I used my head XD
After all the confusion I brought on myself about those Avari (you know, the 'refusers'), I realised that only one branch of them (Moriquendi) were pointed out. I think most people just equate them to be the same thing, which isn't right, because, well, I figured they couldn't have all gone evil just because they weren't sure about going over the sea and were stuck in Arda at the time... we just don't know much about them. So I started inventing *grins*... and that's essentially where my whole RP story comes in... *trails off*
Oops *feels guilty* Off topic. Should probably belong in the Amon Lanc OOC thread or something.
