Roleplayer Information
What name, OOC, do you like to be known as?: Bronte
Age:
Existing characters:None to speak of.
Character Information:
First Name:Liam
Middle Name: Allard
Last Name: Bronte
Status: (Peasant, guard, official title etc.):Crusader
Place of Birth: London
Current Age: 23
Date of Birth: September twenty-fourth
Parents: Cait: mother, born in Ireland. Leon: Father, born in France.
Siblings:Adelia: younger sister, 19, married and living in France.
Current place of residency: None yet, Possible Nottingham.
Support and why:To most people, Liam looks like he supports the King, due to his position (see life story). However, he supports himself, thinking one day he’ll overrule King Richard. In a way, he supports the Sheriff, but only to get the King out of the way.
Personality: Liam is very suave and charming. He has an air about him that pleases most people, and thanks to it he has lead a very nice life. He knows what his looks can get him and uses that to his advantage. Although he is in no way worried about his soul, he enjoys sins more often than the average man. He is confident and driven to succeed. His thirst for power rivals that of the Sheriff of Nottingham and Prince John. He is also greedy, always looking for a way to come into more money despite his comfortable living.
Life Story: Liam grew up in London, but stayed there very little. His father was in trade (always in England), but his lack of English put him at a disadvantage in the trading world. This lead to an alright living, but nothing near the riches most merchants made. Liam soon became his father’s translator and became bi-lingual in the process. One of the trips he and his father made often was to Birmingham since it gave them access to goods from around the world without leaving England. On these trips Liam met Thea Linnet and though they weren’t best friends, they grew close to each other, finding many similarities between them.
He had a good life, but always wanted more. During his childhood, he worked endlessly on his fighting skills or French, anything to get him further in life. Whenever he saw someone who had more than he did, he would strive to become an equal with them. Though, as he aged, the drive to earn it became weaker and he would resort to physical harm to get a one up on the person. With the right teaching, Liam could have grown to be a great man, kind to all and driven to make England a better place. But since his father was more focused on earning money and becoming rich, the pure side of Liam soon dried away, and with it most of his heart.
When he turned sixteen, Liam left for the Crusades, leaving his family behind. His ambitious attitude propelled him to the King’s inner circle. But simply being in his inner circle wasn’t enough for Liam. Once he was proven to the King, he was assigned a contingent of knights to command. He wasn’t an unfair leader, but expected the best of his men, determined to prove King Richard that he was worthy of more. Liam loved the power his new position gave him and thirsted for more. It was during his fourth year in the Crusades that twenty-year-old Liam began to work towards a new goal: King. The power he could have would be immense. He got closer to the King, becoming more and more of a friend to the man, all the while just dreaming of the ways he could dispose of him.
Liam became close to the King and began to advise him on some matters back in England. He spoke to the King and expressed a worry that someone might be trying to claim the throne while Richard was fighting. The King immediately sent him back to London to spy and get rid of any potential threats. What the King didn’t know was that his biggest threat was Liam, one of his most trusted men. Liam comes to Nottingham to ‘seek out any threats’, though his true intentions are not known yet.
Anything else? His biggest strength is his worst weakness. He is so determined to get what he wants, he often doesn’t see the bigger picture. Luxuries, money and lust are his other weaknesses. He feels no love for women; lust and passion, yes, but never love. He also learnt Arabic while in the Holy Lands and enjoys speaking the language- or rather he enjoys impressing people by speaking the language.

Did you see our ad? If so, where? I did, but can't remember where. Sorry!
I already worked things out with Thea.
Sample Role-Play “Do not walk away from me! Adela, we are not finished!” A hand snapped out and pulled Adela back to him. “You will obey me.” He ordered.
She looked back at him coolly, her violet eyes icy. “No.” His face reddened and his hand rose threateningly.
“Do it,” she willed him. “Go on, strike your precious daughter. You’ve been waiting seventeen years to do it, so do it. Mother’s not here to stop you anymore.” His hand flew down, the blow sending her across the room. She landed unceremoniously on the floor in a heap, but glared at her father. Her eyes shone with tears of pain, but she blinked them away furiously. His eagle-shaped ring had cut her cheek and now she could feel the sticky blood on her ivory skin.
“Get up,” he hissed at her. His face was contorted with rage as just sat and watched him. “Get UP! You are my daughter and you will do as I say. Now get up and never speak like that again.” He picked her up and threw her down the hall. When he heard her door close he yelled in frustration. “I am Lord of this Manor!”
