Username: Agent_v50

Character Name: Gora Resdark

Age: 31

Race: Human

Alignment: Chaotic Good; raised Saradominist, but leans towards Guthix's philosophy.

Gender: Male

Personality: At first glance, one might dismiss Gora as lacking the qualities befitting a great mage. He appears antsy; when sitting or standing at a meeting, mealtime, or even casual conversation he fidgets, unable to keep his hands and feet still. Outwardly, he is impatient, always rushing towards the subject of a conversation, rather than wasting time with trivialities. When he does indulge in small-talk, his speech is fraght with sarcastic remarks and an undertone of cynical mockery, leading many to veiw him as arrogant. However, when working, he becomes intensly focused and concentrated, rarely deviating to speak to his peers, or even to eat. He rigourously tests and checks all of his handiwork; his greatest and deepest fear is to build something, and have it fail at precisely the wrong moment.

Appearance: Standing at an average 5' 9", Gora posesses a mess of burgundy hair and beard, blue eyes, and a somewhat pale complexion. He has an almost disheveled
appearance, as he sometimes neglects his looks (and sleep) in favor of continuing hs labors. He usually wears a set of blue robes, similar to what members of the runecrafting guild would wear. For practicing spells, he keeps a small wand on his person, and prefers to conceal it within his vestment rather than hang it on is
belt, as is custom with many wizards. He also carries a set of goggles, which he places on his hat when not in use.

History: Gora Resdark was born in Yanille, home of the Magic Guild, and was raised by his parents, Esmond and Lynn Resdark. Both his mother and his father were members of the Magic Guild, and were both eager to pass on their knowledge to their only son. Having learned the basics of magic at young age, Gora became fascinated by the idea of using spells to create machinations that could function on their own. He entered the Magic Guild as an apprentice at age fifteen, a year younger than many other apprentices, due in part to his own talents, as well as his parents' influence in the Guild. (Nepotism FTW!)

Gora excelled in his education, and went on to become a professional Artificer in the Guild. Among the many projects he worked on was the now-ubiquitous lodestone network, for which he personally designed and constructed a mechanism allowing the caster to both psychic*y locate the target lodestone, and and draw the energy required to enact the spell. During the construction of the network, he was afforded the oppurtunity to travel accross ***linor. After the project was complete, he return to Yanille to work in the guild. After his return, however, he realized that he enjoyed the travel and the work, and much prefered it to his research position at the Guild. He wanted to build things that could be used in the field, not simply tested and thrown away. Furthermore, he wanted to be the one designing and testing his contructions in their entirety, rather than simply fulfilling a single role, as it was with the division of labor in the Guild. With these thoughts in mind, he set out as both an adventurer and a scientist.

While passing through Draynor on his way to Varrock, he heard rumors of oppurtinities at the fabled Wizard's Tower. Deciding that he could perhaps snag a position at the tower that could supply him with the resources his experiments required, he decided to apply for entry.

School wanted: Enchanting (Artificer)

Miscellaneous: (taken from his letter to the Archmage, not really representative of his personality as its tone is formal)


"... among which are my contributions to the Lodestone Network, Runecrafting, and
the field of Applied Trancendant Mechanics. I hope that you will approve my entry
and allow me to use your illustrious Tower's resources to continue my experiments.

-Gora Resdark"

P.S. I know when your sessions start, but how long do they usually last? I ask becuase your starting times are around 3:00 pm where I live, a time that is inconvenient for me, and I'd like to know if it is acceptable for me to be 'late'.
Also, sorry for the wall of text. :P I wrote this in notepad, and got carried away.

I like it, there's plenty of information here that's good quality, I know exactly who this person is and I get a good sense of how he'd interact with the rest of the Tower.

I'll approve it on 2 conditions, you remove the part about Guthix's death as that's not canon in 41 (we're still 5th age here), and Gora is a year older than my primary character Archmage Vyrell, both of the Vyrell siblings were taught at the Guild so they would likely know each other at least by reputation, so if you don't mind that your characters and mine already have some knowledge of one another that would be great.

I approve

I'm sorry that the rp's are early for you, we never have a good time for everyone as 6:45 EDT is actually very late for a large portion of the Tower, feel free to be late the sessions do run long quite often

"he personally designed and constructed a mechanism allowing the caster to both psychic*y locate the target lodestone"

I both have a problem with this bit and am cool with it. It's mostly because the lodestone network is a "canon" thing and my M.O. is to never mess with canon. If you wanna have it be "had a large part" or something along the lines, it's up to you/somebody else says something as well.

Other than that gripe I'm impressed.

You and me? We got this.
