He uses his agility mainly for running or sprinting away from any situations that can take his life. Biography (W.I.P, not finished.) - Spoiler:
Anselm was born on a farm outside of a small, humble town. The farm itself was simple and spartan, but did its job well. His mother and father, who owned the said farm, regularly traded with the village. Trading wheat and cattle for tools and resources to expand and improve their farm by a bit. When Anselm was born there was no change in the pattern of work. The father doing primarily the work to keep his family well fed, and his mother did chores inside the house, when he was old enough Anselm helped his mother, and then he helped his father with the harsh existence as a farmer.
At the age of 16, he decided it was time to explore the vast world, his curiosity peaked when he kept hearing news of the grandiose citadels and large towns bustling with life. He was weary of the constant farming and the same faces , he wanted to traverse the vast world, exploring every nook and cranny as much as he can, singing tales of mighty warriors and knowing wizards. With the reluctant consent of his father and mother, they let him go with plenty of rations , a knife and other miscellaneous items of import. He traveled around , enjoying the sights the world has to offer, even learns a bit of singing and story telling.
At the age of 18, disaster struck. Bandits found an unwary Anselm wandering on a road, they took the opportunity. Anselm showed some slight resistance when the rather big group of bandits approached him, stabbing two or three of the bandits down , but the sheer number of them was too much for him to handle. They captured Anselm and confiscated everything he had on him, which wasn't much. They kept him in their rather spartan hideout and tortured him as vengeance for his resistance, which ended up with his arms being cut off and leaving him to die, fortunately for him, the bandits were notorious enough for a small group of adventurers to take notice of, they sought the hideout out, and eventually they were successful in finding it. The bandits were caught unaware, and were easily taken down by the experienced adventurers. Needless to say, they escorted their sole prisoner, who was Anselm, to the nearest town for medical treatment, but that was all they could afford to do for him, he appreciated it nonetheless.
At the age of 20, he slowly improved his singing and story telling, using his disability to his advantage, using it to weave stories . This continued until the present. AlignmentNeutral GoodFavored EnemyNone. Favored WeaponPreferably none, he is extremely vulnerable when it comes down to fighting, it is not like he can use any weaponry, either. DeityHe doesn't seem to believe in any gods at the moment, but not many people have been successful in figuring his beliefs out. Current Task - Spoiler:
Completed On-going. Try to get a proper job, being a bard's not good enough.
Failed.

| Eesh, a disability like that in this setting... not saying you can't make a character like that, but you're going to be hard-pressed to find things to do with him.
On the plus side, he's completely 'armless.
Anyone see what I did there | |

| Kal, wow rude. Discriminating against armless people.
And Munroe, I know that it's going to be a challenge with such a disability, but it has a charm to it. But I do understand your concern. | |

| Whilst I commend your bravery and unorthodox approach to a character, I must agree with Mun.
But as long as you accept the challenge, then I can't exactly say anything at this point. :V | |

If he's ever gonna learn to fight, I'm expecting him to turn out like the Yan from Drunken Master, with his superb kicking technique. Maybe he should get some of those combat boots with hidden blades at the tip. Infact if he does learn to fight pretty well i would love to see him in a tavern brawl or a fight. If you can roleplay him good i guess then it will be very interesting thing to see, I say accept. | |

| In place of arms, he gets two swords attached on ball-point joints and fused to his shoulders. Then, he fights by spinning around like a helicopter. That kind of grafting would probably require a skilled tinker-type. Alec... is not yet.. up to par. Maybe if he got really really lucky, but uh... you're going to have to wait for someone to get good enough to do that.
Anyway, lolaccep | |

| Yeah, I was thinking that, but that would still be difficult to make.
As for making killing machines out of poor disabled people, come on, poor disabled people have always been killing machines. People in wheelchairs run over things and cause general destruction aaaaall the time. | |

Your mother. Vitamancy is necromancy for things that're still alive, in short. Also I see no reason to accept this character. It's unique to say the least and I wish you luck rping him. | |
