(rather long winded, sorry!)
1) Ser Doran Lannister
2) Born 473 so 32
3) Westlander
4) The Howling Lion
5)Master translator (reading/speaking foreign/ancient languages) Expert Oration Apprentice horse-riding Apprentice Sword fighting Novice persuasion Novice axe fighting Beginner dagger fighting Beginner bow fighting
6) Sandor Clegane the Fourth, squire
7) Despite the Lannister name, rumour abounds that Ser Doran was in fact the product of a brief but passionate union between the teenage heir to Winterfell, Tarwin Stark, and forty-something Lady Marta Lannister, and is therefore a Stark's bastard. Whatever his parentage, Doran proved an extremely able youngster, adept at study and swordplay. As a youth he travelled extensively for five years and has great knowledge of the Free Cities and various foreign tongues. His skill as a politician has been noted at court since his anointing as a knight at the relatively late age of twenty-seven.
8) Doran is about 5'9 1/2" tall, with the green eyes of Lannisters and the dull, dark brown hair (of a Stark.) He is clean-shaven with hair quite long; to the base of the neck but not shoulder-length!
9) Doran has acquired an unsavoury reputation in some parts due to his long absences and adoption of strange customs at times. Nonetheless he is a man of honour. He has the shrewdness and intelligence (so often exhibited in bastards), the cunning of a Lannister, the faithfulness of the Cassels, and also has a dour, melancholy streak at times (as do the Starks). Doran also has a wry sense of humour and is a favourite with the whores of Lannisport.

Personally I would recommend you pick someone older and just get used to the format as many other people have :-P You could always have your second be a 10 year old!

Aden, Most of us were knew to this form of roleplaying before the game started. It's easy enough to get into the flow (though I admit Crake's had to be very patient with my questions...). Try someone of age and just jump in!

1) Character Name: Callen Baratheon
2) Character Age: 18 or 19
3) Character Nationality: Stormlands
4) Character Byname: the Builder, the
5) Character Skills expert: ambushing, seige warfare apprentice: sword fighting , charisma novice: scouting, musical instrument (flute) beginner: stewardship, persuasion
6) Character's Second: Lord Quinten of Duskendale
7) Character Personal History: Born at Dragonstone, the seat of the Targaryen princes of old, Callen was forced to mature early as befit the duties of the Crown Prince of Westeros. Although he had his father's characteristic Baratheon hair, he favored his mother's slimmer build.
He squired for Lord Walder Tully till age 16, when he was knighted after setting a trap for the rebel lord Tytos of Duskendale. He spared the man's family, but executed Tytos. The former rebel's son, attracted to the prince's quiet charisma and humour quickly became Callen's lifelong friend. After being offered the rule of Dragonstone from his father, the King, Callen turned it down saying that he would make the seat of his house elsewhere. The young prince later decided on rebuilding the ruined castle of Summerhall, and took an active role in it's design and construction. He became widly known for his interest in archetecture, and was noted for the reconstruction of Harrenhal, a process still going on today. A popular byname for him is Callen the Builder. Because of his experience in the building of castles he knows somewhat of their weaknesses and strength.
His battle tactics often hinge on daring tactics, sometimes too daring. They entail descive manuevers, like the ambush that made him a knight. These manuevers have earned him praise from some, scorn from his elders, who feel that he should be more cautious.
Before others he always has a quiet smile on his face. Although a quiet man (unlike his Baratheon ancestors) he attracts others to him, a force of quiet charisma. When called upon to speak in public he relies on this skill, forcing the crowd to lean in to hear his words. Despite this kind demeanor he falls into a grim mood at times, especially when faced with difficult descision. Unknown to most people he can be particularly ruthless to those he considers traitors, and is known to have cut of Lord Tytos's head off after the rebel's surrender.
8) Character Physical Description: Although born with the characteristic Baratheon charcoal black hair, however, at the age of twelve his mother's Targaryen ancestry added a tinge of silver along the sides of closs cropped hair, something usually reserved for those in their 50s. He has deep blue eyes, warm and non-judgemental when at peace, cold and grim during difficulty.
9) Character Reputation: Quiet and kind. Admired for his charisma. In battle his darring moves have earned the renown of some, the scorn of others who she it as foolhardy bravado. Utterly ruthless to those he views as traitors and sometimes flies into a rage, a characteristic the maesters believe come from his distant Targaryen heritage.

Both Starks & Tyrells could use a few more good men.

Hey how goes? Well I talked to Crakehall about it, he said it was alright. Oh and I started creating Callen's character when he was still prince, not king. It happened that after I posted the old kind died.
