In a fantasy world where skilled warriors and fire-breathing dragons and epic heroes all reside, six heroes band together to bring peace to their world and crush the evil that rules over it. The tale starts with an evil dragon, which has come and plagued a small city. The citizens of the city beg for someone to take care of the dragon, even offering a handsome reward. Some have tried slaying it. All have failed, sometimes even in death. Hearing the rumors of a very powerful dragon, for whatever their reasons, six adventurers separately journey to the city and join forces to slay the large and powerful dragon. But, even if they do slay it, it seems that there is more evil (and plot) in the world than just a random dragon problem...

The Races

Elves: I would say that elf skin reflects the environment they lived in as do their features such as eye color and hair color with a slight facial difference between types of elves. Ex: forest or wood elves tend to have colors seen in the forest reflected in their eyes and hair, they have a skin color equated with a very light tan. Examples of where they come from might include: Snow elves, desert elves, wood elves, dark or mountain elves (drow).
Short ones: This includes any race that is short by nature like dwarves, gnomes, and half-lings. I would say that might not be all of them but the most common ones. Dwarves are stout and strong, gnomes are thinner than dwarves and do not have the same muscle capacity (they are also slightly shorter), half-lings are the shortest short race (lol) and tend to be mistaken for children.

The Characters
The WarriorX
Name: Alexander Warrington
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Race: Human
Appearance: A lightly-tanned young man with shoulder-length brown hair and matching brown eyes. He has a generally average build, standing at 6'0" and weighing around 165 lbs. He's used to wearing standard adventurer armor, though can also wear plated armor, which makes him seem much broader than he really is.
Personality: On a general scale, Alex is a decent guy. He loves helping others and really just wants to make the world a better place. He always has, being a generally nice and carefree sort of guy. However, he is a bit jaded and despite his nice enough demeanor, tends to not want to get too close to anyone; a result from his past. He doesn't like others relying on him and doesn't like to lead or be responsible for others, which is why he's been traveling alone for such a long time.
Background: Alex was a normal boy growing up with loving parents in a small village. When soldiers from another kingdom came by, Alex was inspired by their armor and appearance and from then on decided he wanted to be a soldier when he grew up. Thus, as he grew up and entered the military academy in a nearby kingdom, he became a soldier. He was the best of the bunch, and when war came about with another kingdom, he was appointed as the leader of a field of soldiers and sent into battle. During the bloody war, his entire group of soldiers were slaughtered, Alex barely escaping with his own life. But, the war was won, and they were victorious. However, Alex was never the same, his carefree self now mangled with war and death, but most of all, guilt. After the war and after he recovered, Alex quit being a soldier for the kingdom and instead became a mercenary for hire, traveling the world as a skilled swordsman- a warrior- completing helpful missions for people for food, gold, or shelter for the night. That's what he's been doing for three years now, flying solo.
Weapons: He is skilled mostly with a sword and chooses to carry a large, two-handed claymore sword with no accompanying shield. If he has to, he is able to use a one-handed sword and shield. However, he is clueless when it comes to anything other than a sword, such as the bow and arrow or dagger.
Fighting Abilities: Can take a lot of damage as well as dish out a decent amount of damage. However, he lacks in speed and agility, especially if he has heavy armor on. His DPS (damage per second) rate is slow however, though his accuracy is solid to make up for it.
