Character's Full Name: Jhonaan
In Game Name: Jhonaan, former Anchorite of the Omenai, former Sergeant of the Alliance.
Race: Draenei
Class: Priest
Age: (At present, I'm figuring he was an adult at the time of the Draenei exodus from Argus. I believe this would make him at least 21,000 years old, but correct me if I am wrong and I'll happily change this information).
Appearance: (From Jhonaan's RSP)
The Draenei before you bears a stern resoluteness and a stoic contemplation to his countenance.
His skin is a pallid gray, and his features lack the tentacles and ridged forehead present on many of his kind. He bears the typical broad build of a Draenei male, his frame usually garbed with priestly vestments indicating his status as an Anchorite of the Omenai, an obscure and mostly vanquished faction of Draenei. He also bears a badge of commendation from the Alliance military, denoting his status as a Sergeant among its vast ranks.
He speaks with a deep tone, slightly ragged from years and toil.
Personality: Self-disciplined and stern, dutiful, and stoic.
Background: (For brevity's sake and because we're all busy adults, I've condensed this down for the application. )
Jhonaan has spent much of his long life as an Anchorite of the Omenai.
When his people settled what they came to call Draenor, Jhonaan made his home in the wilds of Zangarmarsh, Telredor, and occassionally in Telhamaat. He often traveled between the two places, offering aid to other wayfarers.
When the Orcs began their demon spurred massacre of the Draenei people, Jhonaan helped spirit away what little of his kin could be protected in the safe haven of Telredor in Zangarmarsh. He tended to the ill and wounded, and ventured out with small Draenei scouting parties to find other Draenei refugees.
When word came of the sacking of Shattrath, Jhonaan turned from a somewhat extroverted devotee of the Light to a lone, stoic anchorite in the wilds of the Marsh, shunning anything beyond casual contact his own people and surviving more or less alone for the duration of the conflicts known as the First and Second War. His brother had been a Vindicator in the defense of Shattrath, and perished there, supposedly against an Orcish Blademaster, though Jhonaan has never known for certain, ever spurred to find out the truth. The slaughter of his brother and his people is likely what prompted his self-imposed solitude and hermitage.
When it came time to flee Draenor on the Exodar, Jhonaan followed Velen out of duty to his people.
Jhonaan aided in mending the survivors of the Exodar crash, and assisted the Hand of Argus in assaulting the Blood Elf positions on Bloodmyst Isle. He has since served the Alliance in their military campaigns against the Horde, earning a Sergeant's commendation and hoping for a chance to meet and defeat those few foes who yet live that slew his brother and his people across Draenor.
Why would your character join Kamil te Kar?
Right now, I have a few different ideas I'd like to explore, and hash out with the assistance of your members. I'm not dead set on any of them in particular.
One idea is that someone in the Kamil knew Jhonaan's brother, Kalashtaar, a Sha'tari Vindicator during and prior to the siege of Shattrath. Perhaps someone in the Kamil approaches Jhonaan with true or falsified claims that Kalashtaar died with a debt to the Kamil, a debt that Jhonaan is now expected to pay, or coerced into paying. As the Kamil goes, this debt would be paid with an exchange of equivalent services, as seems to be customary.
Another idea is that Jhonaan approaches a Kamil "operative" with what will turn into a long, cross faction revenge plot that will firmly place Jhonaan somewhat willingly in the Kamil's pocket, so to speak. It would likely begin with Jhonaan offering his services as a Anchorite/Priest in exchange for the kidnapping of a Horde veteran rumored to have taken part in the siege of Shattrath, to the end of eventually locating the alleged Blademaster who likely butchered Jhonaan's brother (among scores of other Draenei). I have a friend Horde side who role plays the Orc Blademaster in question, and eventually this could lead to his or Jhonaan's death, depending on how things play out.
Jhonaan also harbors a tacit grudge against the Sin'dorei, and has interest in investing in the Bloodthistle trade to sap, sabotage, and weaken the Blood Elf nation from within.
Any or all of these could play out at any time as part of Jhonaan's personal story in relation to the Kamil or separate, and I'm also open to any suggested avenues of joining that you may have. Just let me know.
Where do you think your character would fit in with the Kamil te Kar?
Jhonaan has a sterling reputation as a Draenei Anchorite, and as a retired Sergeant of the Alliance military. This makes him ideal for moving illicit goods and such, as he is not likely to garner much suspicion from authorities. Jhonaan, despite being an Anchorite, is also toiling with a dark side that harbors grudges and seeks revenge as a result of his past. This will likely change, progress, or otherwise develop over time, and I'm open to that going wherever it may with the Kamil as one of many contributing factors. Beyond that, I see Jhonaan as a protector, and mender of other Kamil "agents".
What does this character have to offer to the Kamil te Kar?
I think what he offers to the Kamil and where he would fit in were kind of blended together in the previous answer, but if you'd like more information I'd be happy to provide it.

Are you 18 or older? Yes, I am 28.
What are you applying for? Guild membership.
Is this character an alt of an already existing member? No.
Tell us a bit about yourself:
I'm a laid back, busy guy who is looking for some fun and interesting RP to occupy my wow time, along with some potential PvE with other like-minded folks. I've had years of role playing experience from tabletop games, and from Warcraft (which I've played since the first game). I've run a few successful RP guilds since I started playing WoW, but I'm just too busy with RL to actively run a guild of my own anymore, so I'm looking for a change of pace Alliance side by merely actively participating in a guild instead.
How did you hear about Kamil te Kar:
I read about the guild on wra.net.
