    Full Name: William Caldwell
    Nickname(s): N/A
    Gender: Male
    Age: 19
    Date of birth: 2386S, October 20th
    Place of birth: Farmlands of Patraeia
    Current residence: Farmlands of Elpida
    Job: Farmer/Herbalist
    Interests and hobbies: Gardening, eating, adventuring, animals
    Religious Belief: Metus
    Signature Item (s): Caldwell's Family Scythe, passed down through generations of farmers to symbolize adulthood and the farm life.

    Background
    William was a rather uneventful child, he lived a fairly hard life of a farmer, as was expected of the Caldwell children. He had many brothers and sisters, as well as a loving family who cared much for him. His life on the mainland wasn't that interesting, he hoed the soil, tilled the land, planted seeds, usual farmer stuff. He grew a particularly close relationship with the animals of his family's farm though, loving to care for them and play with them when he was bored. He didn't have much of a social life, instead preferring the company of his brothers and sisters, being the youngest it wasn't easy for him, but his family was nice to him regardless.

    Eventually when William was 15 he was chosen to be given the family scythe, a tool passed down from generation to generation, a sign of maturity among the farmers of the Caldwell family. His brothers were extremely proud of him, cheering for him and patting him on the back. It was a wonderful day for William. He continued to care for the farm with his family, his family being a rather large family oriented business and owning many plots of land in which to grow crops and care for animals. Times were good for William. Though he wanted more, he didn't know what to do about it though.

    Eventually William was passing the docks when he heard talks of Elpida and it's passage for a few gold coins. William was curious as to this strange new land. He didn't know what to do so naturally, he went to his parents and proposed the idea of opening a new branch of the Caldwell family farm, his parents, having the family's best intentions at heart, agreed to this proposition. As such, William was given a good meal, some jerky for the road, and some gold to which to spend when he got there. He handed off his payment to the dockmaster, boarded the ship, and was whisked away to Elpida.

    He is currently 19 years old after living in Elpida for some time. He knows his way around the land fairly well by now, some villagers even knowing him by name if they frequent the marketplace enough. He tells stories of his brothers and sisters and their antics to some customers if they care to listen, loving to hear the looks on their faces when they hear about their antics. He is trying to save up enough cash to buy a farm for himself to which to grow his own crops, currently working as a freelance farmer to make ends meet. He doesn't mind though, one day he'll own his own branch of the Caldwell Family Farms and make his family proud of him. One day...

    Note: I'm not too good at backgrounds so apologies if it doesn't like quite right or is wrong in any way, I did my best! Honest!

    Hello Amigo! Great bio thus far, but they require just a bit more! Here's the link to the post: http://minecraftfrontiers.com/forums/threads/writing-a-biography-guide.153/

    Also, here's the link to another one of the recommended posts, but I think you covered it rather well here! http://minecraftfrontiers.com/forums/threads/recommended-character-biography-layout.156/

    But also, here's the recommended layout and such! :D
    • Your character's name.
    • 1-2 paragraphs about your life on the Mainland.
    • 1 paragraphs about your decision to go to Elpida
    • 1-2 Signature Items (you may write a story on them as well if you want)
    • Pick at least 1 god your character follows.
    Just trying to be helpful, not meaning to be rude! I mean, it sounds good so far, you just need more! :D Good luck, hope to see you in game!

    Hey,

    Sorry for the delay. Most of the staff are working extremely hard to get the Phase 2 release ready. I have personally messaged @Alir99 to take a look. He should get to it within the next 24 hours. He is currently the only staff member in charge of biography review.

    Cheers,
    Tom
