The mother was talking to her daughter about what she thinks the baby will be like, or who the baby will look like, etcetera . But in a sudden turn of events. The mother curled over, and said in a sense of pain "Th-The babies coming."

They rushed back to the house, where the mother was laying there in pain. due to being in labour. After a long and hard birth, The baby had been born. But to a sad conclusion.

Chapter 2. A boy with certain intrests: We now join Naiaza. Who has now reached adolesence. At this point, Naiaza is returning from a market. Bringing home the groceries essentially. Naiaza runs down the alleys rushing home. About 3 doors down from his house. Some bully's are waiting for him to rush back to his house. Naiaza turns around the corner of the alleyway, and his smile gets over taken by a frown. as he see's the other children. The leader of the group says "Hey Baby Naiaza, Give me that bag of sweets." Naiaza frowns, and cowers a bit. as he says in a timid tone "Pl-Please..I-It's my sister's B-Birthday and Th-These treats are H-Her present" The entire group laughs and snickers. And one of them said "Awwwh, Baby Naiaza got a present for his sister. Hey. Maybe if we take those sweets and give them to her, She might let us-..." But the child got cut off, As they heard a womans voice say "I might let you.What.?". And they turned around, To see Naiaza's sister Eloen. And the Children say non-chalaunt- like. "Nothing M-Miss Eloen W-We were just about to say Uhm. You might let us join the party yeah!". Eloen Grinned Sort of Scary like. And grabbed the group's leader by the shoulder....She then proceeded to grip tighter and then proceeded to, as it's called in modern times. "German suplex" The kid. And the rest Scattered and ran away...Eloen got up off the ground, and smiled warm and motherly at Naiaza "C'mon Squirt. Let's head inside." Naiaza Nodded in Admiration "Okay!" as they both headed in. When Naiaza and Eloen entered, He rached into the bad and took out the wrapped up treat, and held it out to Eloen "Here. It's your present for your birthday." Eloen smiled, And took the treat. "Thank you very much." And she halved the treat, and gave Naiaza half, As they both ate their halves of the treat.

With somewhat grey hair, and a kind look to his face approached Naiaza He Inquired "Why is a young man like yourself sitting around like some poor old man?". Naiaza looked up, and responded "Don't know. I have been trying to find employment around the town. But either nobody is interested. or they just aren't hiring..." The human man Offered "Well how about I let you work in my shop for a while..I run a shop for minor repairs some ways out of the marketplace.".

It's pretty minimalistic. That's okay, but much fleshing out must be done, and you should probably clear up what you mean by conjurations- that's a broad term and for all we (the community) know, you could just be looking for another way to give yourself whatever you want, anytime you want it (which is an auto-deny, btw)
The mixed underlining is killing me. I suggest you go look at approved characters and check out formatting and such. Experiment with our forum options.

I'm not entirely sure on elf lore, but I'm fairly certain elves still age, just slower than other races. So if he were 197, he wouldn't look 19, but rather much older than 19. I'm not entirely sure, but that's always how I imagined it.

The only race I know of that looks young at the age of 200 is the drow.
As far as I know, Naiaza should be fairly close to death at that age.
EDIT:Try 50 years old.

I would need Pat to verify this, but I'm pretty sure it's accurate to say that at 200, an elf would look in his 20s, maybe his 30s. Elves live for hundreds of years, reaching their "prime" at roughly the same time as a human and remaining there for a lot longer. Thus you have the strict laws limiting the elves' population. If there weren't any such laws, they'd overcome Aeria's sustainable population capacity.

erm
@Phoenix: drow are a type of elf. The are the daefar (in our lore). the lighter elves live longer than drow, I think.
also, I had a nice long talk about magic with toast, so at some point, i believe he will be fixing that part up to make more sense

Partially editted some of it. Still having trouble with the bio, so I just completely left it out for now. fleshed out the skills and put it into more Detail.
Subject: Re: Naiaza Rybesbael Fri Sep 14, 2012 7:03 am
@ Kain: I am just repeating what Xeloras told me. He said 600 years for the Daefar. I just call them drow because everyone else does. That or they call them dark elves. I often hear conflicting information from the lore team, so don't expect me to always have it right.
Besides, I was just rolling along with what Thoro and Jacque said, so >:P

Whenever the lore is not written down, the information can conflict 'cause we have nowhere to go read it and be certain, lol.
Education: Trust me, if he has a poor education, he won't be understanding any formulas or reactions, at least not in written form. He may have a vague idea of geometry, and a general understanding of some alchemic processes by watching, but that's not really a useful level of knowledge.
Pacifism : I'm pretty sure this is part of his personality, and not a skill.
Reverence of Eldath: I wouldn't count this as a skill, either, because he has no direct control over what happens to him, and literally anybody can pray.
Respectfullness: Again... personality.
Laid back and calm: Personality.
Prefference to magic: See above
Pervert: See above.
Languages: These are some actual skills.
When it comes to skills, uh, you have to choose actual skills. A skill is a field of knowledge or an ability that one can build upon, improve and use consistently to provide consistent results with minimal effort. It also allows one to learn and perform new skills or abilities based on the proficiency of the original skill.
So, from what I gather, your character could attribute these skills to himself:
Speechcraft / Diplomacy ( it helps him avoid conflict )
Magically Fluent (helps him learn magic)
And then, his other skills, like, general learning, swordsmanship, athletic and acrobatic ability, might be lower- or maybe those last two would be high because he might be the type that likes to run away from battle.
Yeah, consider all that.

Looks okay to me. The biography's parts could be better formatted into paragraphs, but the content is fine.
I don't know about elven ages, but I assume you've spoken with Pat about that. If not, well, Alfar lore should be available soon enough.
I get the 'average mage' bit but could you provide a benchmark of some kind for the skill, because 'average' in the preset timeline means 'barely at all,' so an idea of something he can do would be great.
