RuleJJ , here's Azril's original bio, slightly altered. Is there anything I ought to change about it, aside from his name?
Name: Azril Betynsohn
Age: 16
Hair: Sandy blond, scruffy
Eyes: Chocolate-brown
Race: Human
Skin Tone: Pale, with faint freckles on his face
General Description: A young teenager wearing simple, though not unsightly, peasantry garments; grey leggings, large black boots, forest-green jerkin over gray canvas shirt, and a leather baldric and belt slung over his torso to hold extra belt pouches.
Skills/Class: Archery; he can shoot a crossbow his dad owned, and can hunt game with simple bow and arrows in the forest. He knows a good bit about forging metal in blacksmith shops, not to mention cooking and baking delicious treats and keeping a vegetable garden.
Items: A walking stick his father had before he passed away; a map of the kingdom Morñornia and some of the surrounding territories; his backpack carrying some apples, a roll of bread, a flask of water, some tools, a saddle blanket, and a pocket watch he built himself.
Backstory: Azril was born and raised in Morñornia with his parents as a single child. His father was a soldier in the (?) army, and told his son his stories from his adventures around the world, thus inspiring Azril to explore and have adventures of his own one day. Azril’s interested in building things and mechanics, and is sure that there’s a future in engineering and that he can create something that’ll change the world. When he was fifteen years old his father passed away, and his widowed mother struggled for money to feed herself and her boy before marrying again. Azril’s stepfather was demanding and abusive of him, and after a year of living in misery, Azril ran away to find a new life for himself. He hopes to be hired out somewhere as an apprentice blacksmith or even a servant, although privately he’d rather do something more exciting, like being a warrior and inventing new gadgets for his medieval world.

I've changed a couple things in the backstory to make it fit the established world. My changes are in red. He will need a companion.

how did i miss this Got it, thanks.
Companion Name: Robin Species**: A half-wolf, half-dog mutt Gender: male Age: Three (27 in people years, I think ) Physical Description: A somewhat-large wolf--or at least a wolf-looking canine. Pelt is a smoky gray, while his eyes are a bright amber color. Belly and chest fur is a lighter gray whereas his paws are almost black. Personality (especially if sapient): A very happy, cheerful canine, who has had little experience with the cruelty of the world. He sticks by his master's side whenever he can, and is ferocious in fighting. He loves food, meat especially. Woe unto the platter of roasted chicken left unattended where his nose can smell it. Abilities (if notable): He protecc, he attacc, but most importantly, he can bite u in the bacc He has no more abilities than the average wolf/dog. Backstory† (if different from Rider’s): Robin, born from a dog mother and a wolf father, was found by Azril as a small puppy abandoned in an old robin's nest in the family barn. Azril had no idea where the pup came from, yet he took it in and cared for it, soon growing attached to it, and the puppy grew attached to him. Azril named the puppy after the robin's nest from which he found him.

Any changes I should make to this?
Well, generally, the companions are what the Riders ride. You could switch yours to a giant dire wolf, or you could keep him as he is and also have a horse. Or, perhaps, you go to the Riders without a proper companion and Hithrol helps you get one.

Hmm, maybe Azril going to the Rider without a proper companion will give the story an opportunity for development for his character.

I'm sorry for the late reply. My family's in the middle of moving, and I've been sacrificing some of my time on the MBs to help out with cleaning, packing, and organizing. xP

Yes, and I know exactly the companion I want him to find, if that's all right.

No worries; I get it. My family moved recently as well.

Thanks. ^.^ I'm still trying quite hard to stay caught up, but don't be surprised if some of my replies are slower than others.

Hi, Ruljj! So, I'm interested in the Mercenary Village RP topic, how do I go about joining? Do I just make a profile and post it?

Hi, Ruljj! So, I'm interested in the Mercenary Village RP topic, how do I go about joining? Do I just make a profile and post it?
Hello! First, you need to read the rules. I also suggest you skim through some of the lore to get an idea of the world. Once you're done with that, you can post your profile in whichever HQ you'd like to join. Assuming I don't need you to change anything, you'd then be ready to start.
