[Shao]

In-Game name:
xShaolinPunkx
Roleplay name:
Koldash Veiloros
House:
Renatus
RP religious beliefs:
Is not currently religious but is open to suggestions.
Reason for applying:
With his family dead ( Raven who will most likely be revived again.) he lacks purpose. He has been studying plants and learning about them and is pretty good at brewing tea. He is bored of living his humble life and misses the thrill of the hunt, he gets bored easily so the humble life hasn't gone on long.
Timezone:
GMT or whatever the UK decides to be.

Anything extra you’d like to add:
He is very stealthy because he has hunted man for 35 years (cannibal). His weapon of choice is a hatchet, he is also good with daggers and bows but they will need to be honed quite a bit. He has two personalities so if one is having an off day the other can take over. I decent at unarmed.

Is very good at unarmed due to his claws.

..Claws?

..Claws?

He is a moor elf.

 

[TheDeester]

..Moors don't have claws. Perhaps longer fingers. This is coming from someone that had read through that section of the lore quite extensively.

We do sharpen out nails alot to, so i guess the longer fingers and the sharpened nails would be like claws.

It is common for the Moors to grow their fingernails out and file them to be talon-shaped.

As for this: Fingernails grow. He wouldn't be born to have really long fingernails. They'd have to grow normally, then he can polish them up to be smoother and more visually appealing. Does not matter, as the human fingernails aren't as designed to be flesh-tearing as other predators. If someone is better with the biology, please correct me.

I'd agree with this- long, sharp nails of humanoids can perform some measure of damage, but it would only be restricted to shallow, slashing wounds. Anything too deep or powerful, the nail would most likely break, or in extreme cases, be ripped off completely.

Sounds fair, Thanks for clearing that up :3

Nails are not the tactical equivalent to claws, no matter what you might do to them.

The difference between nails and claws is one of bone structure, keratin content, etc.

Claws - things designed to rend, are typically an extension of the bone/joint structure.

Nails are dead cells.

 

[Somnastra]

Nails probably couldn't be longer than at most an inch. Nails do some really weird things when they're too long.

 

[Tybalt]

Maybe get clawed gauntlets?
