IC
Character's Full Name: Joss O'Malley
In Game Name: Joss
Race: Human
Class: Warlock (Not much of one IC at the moment, sadly)
Age: 19
Appearance:
Joss has the look of a young man in his late teens/early twenties who does honest, hard work. His build is that of functional muscle, his waist thick and shoulders broad. This obviously isn't a guy who does intensive military training, but does spend a good amount of time lifting and moving stuff around.
He's of average height, standing a bit above the six foot mark. Long wavy hair frames the right side of his face; the hair on the left side is always tucked behind his ear. Its color is a dull blonde and the ends are frayed, suggesting years without a haircut or proper care. His right ear is missing, just a hole and scarred flesh where it used to be. His brow is usually drawn into a scowl, whether he's angry or not. A scraggly beard sprouts from his strong chin, while his upper lip and jaw usually bear some stubble.
His gait is rather strange considering his appearance. Every other step or so he will hop slightly, making him appear to be almost skipping. He doesn't seem to notice this, scowling away.
Personality:
(His blog says it better than I can wyrmrestaccord.net/blogs/joss )
Joss acts a bit like a child, as he has had very little social interaction up until coming to Stormwind and quite a bit of mental trauma. He's also very skittish, and is fairly easy to scare. He is a genuine sweetheart, despite the fact that he frequently steps all over social lines without meaning to. Even though he's a rather nice and naive guy, he's prone to completely raging if his buttons are pushed. On the other hand he will run like a scalded dog with zero shame if he's scared enough. Joss is also easily frustrated given that he's mute and sometimes has quite a bit of trouble getting his point across through sloppy handwriting and gestures.
Background:
Joss lived on a small family farm in Westfall until his mother was murdered by the Defias. He stopped speaking after this happened, which led his father to send him to Stormwind to possibly 'fix' him. Since then he has held a job at the Black Rose Tavern, subsequently quitting after the owner was murdered; now copperless.
Why would your character join Kamil te Kar?:
Joss would never join voluntarily if he realized what it was. However, he could easily be blackmailed/bullied into joining. He could be talked into being a drug mule, as long as he remained oblivious to the actual contents of his deliveries...for a period of time. Being broke, he's on the lookout for any job he can find. Or he could become indebted to them after having an addictive substance pushed onto him. Joss is not the brightest crayon in the box, so it would not be difficult for him to dig himself into a hole he couldn't get out of. Joss also really really wants friends. He doesn't tend to notice that people are absolute scum if they're nice to him. Once he's attached to someone they can do no wrong, and he'll follow them around like a lost puppy. A one eared puppy.
Where do you think your character would fit in with the Kamil te Kar?:
Transporting illegal goods, and abusing illegal substances (once he encounters them, basically sinking any money he makes back into the gang). While Joss can throw a decent punch he's not one to start a fight unless he has to, so enforcement is pretty much out.
What does this character have to offer to the Kamil te Kar?:
The fact that he is trustful and flat out oblivious. If given encouragement Joss will do just about anything to make people happy. He exists to be taken advantage of like a mark surrounded by used car salesmen.

OOC
Are you 18 or older?: Yep!
What are you applying for? (Guild membership, associate, enemy, etc.): Guild membership.
Do you have an already existing alt on WrA that we might already be acquainted with? If so, who?:
Alliance: Burke
Horde: Ghakthar, Mogrum, Seinfeld, Uo
Is this character an alt of an already existing member? If so, who?: Nope.
Tell us a bit about yourself: I'm a nineteen year old lady-woman who enjoys music and fishing quite thoroughly. I'll be beginning college soon, and spend most of my time volunteering with abandoned/abused animals and running around in circles while singing Tammy Wynette lyrics. I'm a hillbilly.
How did you hear about Kamil te Kar: Interacted with a few members before, and through WRA.net.
Pie or cake: Pie. Pumpkin pie. No whipped cream. That is a waste of good pie.
