Yes

I am a HS student. Currently planning on pursuing chemistry of some form, enigneering, or physics. I do well in all my classes and always get 100s on my exams.

About your character
Name:
Leonidas Bardeen
Age:
19
Race:
Dwarven (frostpeaks)
Appearance:
a 5'6" tall Dwarf with a trimmed handlebar mustache. he would wear a grey wool sleeved vest over a black leather shirt with metal spauldrons and wrist-guards, at his waist he would have a pouch where he holds a small notebook and writing tools on a leather strap and below he would have a pair of black leather pants. his skin would be quite pale, even for a Frost-peak dwarf.

The test
"I was never like the other Frost-peaks, as I got older I never felt that battle would be fun, or interesting, I just stayed home and made small contraptions. when I was about 15 some of my friends tried to pressure me to go into a small battle, when i refused the constant slander would not stop so i left the land for a quieter place to mess with machinery. i eventually ended up at the crossroads trying to survive and met Kane, he was a kind person, but he was... 'strong willed.'"
"I do not believe he liked doing what he did. but enough of that, this is my story. I always loved the idea of machines, no, i love machines themselves. they can do anything with the right mechanisms in the right places, they- oh, I'm sorry, this must be quite boring to you, let me get back to the exciting stuff. soon after meeting him i found myself in a similar situation and at the age of 17 I was brought into crippling debt after a run-in with some bandits. you may be thinking 'how is a frost-peak so weak?' but as I said, i was never like the other frost peaks. I found myself in their workshops doing tinkering as the rest made swords, shields, armor, axes, and war-hammers, especially war-hammers. I honestly don't mind it, as long as I can tinker I am okay with whatever else happens."
"When I look back to my time with Kane, I do think I could have helped him, but my tinkering posed a problem, I never really knew how to talk with other people well because I always spent my time doing that instead of talking with people, mind you I really got into that because I already was bad at conversation but I digress. I may have been able to stop him from being sold into the slave trade when he was 15 but i couldn't approach the topic because I was afraid of making the situation awkward."
"Even though i realize that my constant tinkering is a problem, and that I should converse with others so i can find someway out of this horrible cycle more often I always spend time working on machinery. With that in mind i will try to set out and make my way into the world, and escape my ragged, indebted life,"
