New Here, Wanting to Submit Bio...
Posted: Tue Apr 24, 2012 12:42 pm
Hello everyone!
I read in the forum description this is where to post a biography, but before I actually post an official one, I wanted to give a general idea of the character I wanted to bring here.
I have been roleplaying in forums and in other venues for about ten years, eight of those being Forgotten Realms' related. I was for a while part of the Drizzt fan site Lavender Eyes under the same username as here, my primary characters being a couple of drow twins. I left years ago but continued ever since to RP those two, among many others, with two RPers I meant on this forum. So I have been RPing my character already for eight years and am including him in a story I am writing on my own.
I primarily play a drow wizard named Honglath Freth, around 120 years of age; for purposes here he's only been on the surface a bit more than two years. He came to the surface after meeting a drow female named Alarien who was a young priestess of Eilistraee, half drow-half elf. Before that Honglath was a noble who served as a teacher in the magical academy (in Menzoberranzan, for board purposes) teaching conjuration, and filling in for necromancy when needed.
He is tall for a drow male at 5'9 and has striking blue eyes. He is considered handsome and among his peers was considered charasmatic and respected. He has a twin brother who looks exactly like him who is a priest and fighter for Vhaeraun, though Honglath is a neutral good character. (I may or may not have his brother show up sometimes, since the two are/were kind of close).
An important aspect of his character is that he is not fully drow but part silver dragon, from his grandfather, which is where part of his charismatic nature comes from (though in recent years he seems more bitter than anything). Though Honglath appears as a full drow--and he prefers to stay that way--his "true form" which he is always morphed magically from, shows him a bit thicker and several unmissible patches of silver scales along his body, along with smooth horns that lay back and black-veined silver wings, though he cannot fly; they only really assist him in falling. Again he never shows this aspect of himself, but has changed into it before after meeting his grandfather twice, though the dragon has since disappeared.
Currently Honglath is on his own on the surface; why, I prefer to reveal when I get around to playing him.
So, before I do any official submitting I wanted to get the notes and opinions of the bio approvers. Thank you!
