RACE: Human

Appearance His character in the game is an almost direct representation of his real self. Raphi is approximately 177 cm tall, weighs 62 kg and is very thin. He is in good physical shape, although the strength in his arms is not very much compared to the one in his legs. Speaking of which: His legs are not in the same proportion as the rest of his body: They are longer than they should be. This feature of his can only be recognised if you see his belt or when he's sitting and stretching his legs. However, it doesn't bother him, so it can't be joked about. Unlike his brown-green eyes in the real world, they are just green in-game. His hairstyle is one-of-a-kind: Unlike many popular hair-styles nowadays, Raphi's hair is longer on both sides than on top. It also looks like as he just came out of a storm: it is never flat and always a little messy. It certainly is one of his defining traits and unique characteristics - as he proclaims himself. Raphi has at least one piece of cloth on his body that is his favourite color: green. He usually wears a green sweater, a tight black trouser, brown hiking shoes and - most important of all - a trenchcoat (He's probably even wearing it while sleeping). He only puts on another coat is when it is either too hot or too cold. But even then he chooses long coats. Furthermore he wears a brown belt, red-, olive- and black-striped scarf, his pocketwatch and his Musketeer hat (Some people told him that he looked like Charles de Batz-Castelmore d’Artagnan, so he started wearing one). He uses glasses too, but only if he has to see something far away or if he has to read something. "Walking" itself is often too slow for him. As a result, he enjoys a mixture between walking and jogging. While talking, he often states his points by using certain gestures with his hands. However, he only does so with people he knows, but not with strangers or people he just met. | Personality Raphi is a very introverted person: He never goes out in the evening, neither to partys nor to events. Instead, he prefers to spend his free time playing video games, watching one of his favourite tv-series or reading a good book. He barely maintains any social contact at all - and if he does, it's mostly through Skype. Planning way ahead is one of his traits: Raphi always thinks about what could happen the next day and tries to detailly think every possible problem through with as many solutions and answers as he can think of. This of course often leaves him very puzzled when things didn't go according to the plan - in those situations he is more likely to back out. However, he is very satisfied when a situation comes out exactly how he imagined it and he is already (more than) one step ahead. Raphi is - as one of his friends once stated - a walking mystery. You never know what he is thinking, what his next move is and if he is sincere or not. This makes social interaction with him even weirder, because you never quite know if you should be amused or terrified by one of his answers. He is very childlike and not afraid to show it (but only to the people he trusts) - either be it his humor (with ranges from childlike to sarcasm), his fascination with certain things or his interests. Beeing an oldschool person, he doesn't quite know the slang nowadays, so he often has to ask what certain phrases mean. As a christian, he takes his religion's values very seriously (e.g. no sex before marriage, no abortion, the ten commandments,...) and absolutely despises blasphemy (no matter the religion). If somebody tells Raphi a secret and says "Don't tell anyone!", he keeps his promise and really tells no one. However, he is a trusting person himself, which means he trusts most of the people he knows - even if the sometimes take advantage of his trust (Because he is almost never going out with other humans, it is easier to play a prank on him [which he hates!] if he doesn't know most of the youth's activities and traits nowadays). He can be furious if somebody calls him a liar. If he proclaims he is not lying, he really isn't! Raphi has extremely high endurance, especially mentally. He really uses this strength to his advantage. No matter what, he never gives up and will always stand up and try to finish his task until he has no more physical strength left. He also has a very creative mind and is often lost in his fantasies. If something bothers you about him, he will hear you out, explain his behaviour and - if he thinks you're right - try to become a better person. A weakness of his is that he is a little pessimistic - he often expects things to go wrong and tries hard to come up with a plan which can make him a bit frustrated at times. You might call his social interactions a weakness: He has absolutely no experience what so ever in talking with girls and he will try to avoid contact anytime. As a competitive player, he will always do his best - no excuses. Wether it would be work, PvP, a tournament, his personality or life itself! |
Extra
- He is right handed
- He has never bin in a real fist-fight before
- He likes to find new nicknames for himself
(for example Raphiniert and Raphioso)
I found the RP by looking for an MMORPG similar to Log Horizon.

Biography
Raphi grew up in the west of austria, in the state of Vorarlberg.
His childhood was 2/5 awesome and 3/5 horrible. The good times were spend at home with his family, where he had the best parents anyone could wish for. The other 3/5 consisted of school. Since he attended his first ever school, he had been bullied. No matter the age, no matter the class, Raphi was bullied for almost 12 years of his life. He was always a great and ambitious student, but his classmates tried to take him down and make him fail all the time - mentally.
Everyday he would leave the house in fear, not knowing how his colleagues would bully him today. During these dark times, his trust was abused and used against him way too often. Each day, he became more and more introverted and avoided any social contact outside of his safe 4 walls at any cost. Not only that, but these occurrences made him question his belief in humanity.
Eventually he pulled through it all, leaving him with an unbreakable mentality and a strong will, but also with many bruises from the past.
Raphi has been a gamer since his childhood, with his favourite games beeing Nintendo titles (such as "Super Mario Advance", the "Mario Kart"-, "Super Smash Bros."- and especially the "Mario & Luigi"-series).
Nontheless, he went skiing, swimming and running too, so he was outside from time to time.
RPG was definetly one of his most beloved video game genres.
At age 19 (his current age) he discovered a MMORPG called "Elder Tale". After heavily researching it (how it worked, the classes, the areas etc.) he decided to give it a shot and bought it when the "Novasphere-Pioneers-Update" launched. He concluded that it would benefit him if he would start playing on the new British server, thinking that there would be quite a few inexperienced players like him.
But Raphi never thought he would be trapped in it...
Inventory
Starter bullet: Basic shot used in firearms. Not powerful by any means, but it is cheap.
EQUIPMENT
Left Arm Starter Pistol: A crudely made one-handed starter weapon for adventurers. It is a single shot weapon and must be reloaded after every shot. | Armor Starter Cloth Armor: A basic set of cloth armor made from cheap fabric. They are not really protective, but they are better than going naked—probably. You probably do want to replace these asap, when you think about it. | Right Arm Starter Long Sword: A sword with a prominent shape designed for cutting. A starter weapon designed for novice adventurers, made out of cheap iron. It is well-balanced and easy to use but doesn’t hit particularly hard at all. You probably should get this replaced as soon as you can. |

CLASS SKILLS
Main Class: Swashbuckler
Fencer Style: A passive skill that activates when the swashbuckler is only equipping a single one-handed weapon and nothing in their off hand, increasing the attack damage of their one-handed weapon. Dual wielding has its merits in granting the swashbuckler with an opportunity to apply two different effects to the opponent upon a successful hit, while fighting with the Fencing Style sacrifices this versatility for a greater form of fighting stability.
Fickle Roulette:
A swashbuckler skill that is initiated by the swashbuckler holding their weapons to the shoulders while spinning. This builds up centripetal force at which the swashbuckler lets go of their weapons, causing them to fly out to the distance and revolve in a circle around the swashbuckler's position for a few seconds before falling to the ground. Because using this technique with the swashbuckler's primary weapons results in temporary disarmament, many users prefer to use disposable throwing weapons instead. This skill has an animation time of 3 seconds and a cooldown time of 15 seconds.

Straights: A skill with a 1 second animation time and 5 second cooldown that is very characteristic of its name. This ability causes the Swashbuckler's weapon to glow a golden color as it extends an additional four feet for the duration of an attack. It is initiated by suddenly clenching the weapon very tightly while in mid-swing or mid-thrust. Ranged weapons and grimoires are not affected by this skill. Players wielding two weapons cannot have both weapons be affected by this skill, so it is best used as a follow-up chained strike to prevent the opponent from keeping their distance. After this skill is used, the weapon's attack value decreases for a few seconds, making it unwise to carelessly spam the skill.
Roleplay Class: Acrobat
High Jump: Passive. One of the most basic tricks of the Acrobat's specialty is their ability to jump greater heights than any average person. The Acrobat's maximum jumping height is doubled. While this skill might seem otherwise mundane, it can allow one to reach places that would be difficult for many others.
Crafting Class: Artisan
Carving: Toggle skill. Artisans have a certain affinity with carving stone, making their normal artistic talents not to be underestimated in battle. Artisans deal 20% more damage to Rock-type monsters. They can also ignore defense buffs on Rock-type monsters.
