I picked lumberjacks for both, since it gives uber strength bonuses, for a split second I was in the strength of the gods records on laanx.fragnetics :P

My father was a famous alchemest.

My mother worked at an apothacary.

I just picked things that looked good. and i wanted sesmi to have a wealthy upbringing.

Priest of Laanx is cool because you start off with a good deal of redway and darkway!  Until they fix it, weakness will kill almost anything given enough time, and flameburst isn\'t too weak either as a basic attack spell!  Plus they\'re just COOL.  Look at me, I\'m freaking lighting stuff on freaking FIRE!

I have an animal trainer for a father and a cook for mother.

I pick a cook for mother because I like the food my mother cooks in real life.  As for my dad, I just couldn\'t find anything that seems a bit fn to have at all.

Too bad I couldn\'t find anything that\'s like a thief.

Vagabond is kinda thief-like.  Vagabond isn\'t too expensive, and it raises equally strength, agility, and endurance.

I coudn\'t find warrior so my father was a teacher because he teached me the ways of the wariors.
My mother was a priest of Laanx because that is my bacground storry. I came up with a balanced but weak character but i don\'t care since there is always training and i prefer to keep the RP aspect.
