Well, I had some extra time on my hands so I decided to create a character for the eRPG. My experience with role-playing games is limited to the computer versions (Baldur's Gate, Fallout, etc) so I'm not too familar with the pen and pencil role-playing style. Please bear with me :) Here is the profile, please tell me if I need to add anything, change anything or scrap it and start over (hopefully not). Thanks :)

Background:
At age nine, while performing at an archery festival that takes place in Madrigal once a year, one of the Legion’s top Bowman spotted Celeor placing arrow after arrow right in the vicinity of the bullseye. Obviously, he possessed natural ability and a keen eye-sight. Celeor was taken out of his small village, Serene, which lies twenty miles East of Madrigal, to join the Legion under the flag of arrows. While not directly involved in raids and troop maneuvers at such a young age, he was taken under the wing of a Legionnaire named Arson who trained Celeor to use his mind before his bow.
Three years before the war with Soulblighter, Celeor was admitted to jo’Za-Thatal, a fir’Bolg military university, where he learned of fir’bolg history, human and fir’bolg relations, military history, the fir’bolg language, and the art of bow and arrow. His skills were refined to near perfection. Through his three and a half-year stay, he learned a great deal about about the Bre’Unor and their habitual behavior.
After three years had passed since he first entered the fir’bolg university, war broke out against Soulblighter. In December, Celeor was drafted into the war and was forced to leave the university. He had mere months left until he graduated as Lieutenant. He was immediately stationed at White Falls and fought in the battle that destroyed Shiver’s army after her month-long assault. A few days later he was reassigned to a unit that had orders to guard the pass at Seven Gates, leaving barely in time to miss the slaughter Shiver brought back with her to White Falls. The days passed uneventful; turning back small packs of ghols and wandering Soulless was as exciting as it got. After Soulblighter was defeated at Tharsis, Celeor was granted permission to return to jo’Za-Thatal and completehis studies. He graduated with the Autumn class.
Now, in full-service of the Legion, he is assigned command of a small company that is stationed in an outpost over-looking the north-western tree-line of Forest Heart. They monitor the traffic that runs through Bagrada and on the Wild River. Somewhat of a policing body, they now all are.
Celeor's village, Serene, was burned to the ground during the war, and his parents and one brother are all presumed dead.
