I'm rather high skilled in the use of Skagger axes due to being a graduated Skagger, though only a year out of school. Nevertheless, my abilities are certainly proficient despite my younger age.

To whom it may concern, As a member of the Imperial Bellator Order, I am no stranger to combat, and would find it an honor to fight on the ground against the elves in the name of the empire in GROUP B. I am a graduate of the school of Darkmark, skilled in skirmishes and combat with a paired shortsword and dagger combination. Alongside informal training. My skill in acrobatic feats means my balance is extremely steady, and due to my schooling, working in a small group would be ideal.

Dear House Kade I would like to apply to the group b registry. My training as a Bloodcast Knight has proved in the years of my combative training and experience on the open field. My history with heights has stemed from my years herding goat along side the steep mountains of my home in Anglian, and while my time at sea has not been the longest.

To whomever will read, I address my interest in participating in this mission, prepared physically and mentally to tackle standing threats against the Holy City should my life be at risk doing so. Currently, I'm one of the footmen-officers in the Elven War, and would be pleased to be able to fall into the group B during this journey. Whilst I haven't travelled much, I've migrated from my old homelands to Gallovia so sea sickness will not arise. I had trained for many years with skilled men to help shape my roughened unarmed skill before landing in Regalia, studying in the command region; gaining experience with a mace and other military skills which have come in handy during the past Songaskian and current Elven War. Heights will not be an issue either, I assure, should I be given the chance. Spirit Keep, Reyes Velasquez.

To those of House Kade, I'm insistent on helping with this secret mission as I've an array of skills that may come in handy. I would prefer to be on Group C, as I can use magic to cast up to eight ethereal swords along with stopping projectiles in mid-air to prevent, or lessen the chance of harm to any group members near me. If my magic sounds a bit threatening, I was able to use it in the battle against the Sanguine in the slums alongside Jared Kade. I've also been a sailor for at least a decade, so I'm accustomed to motion sickness and whatnot. My training with some unarmed fighters in Daendroc have also refined my unarmed fighting and acrobatic skills.

Hey Dad, or, To Whom It May Concern, Noticed a real lack of Anglian Longbows on the frontline, which was pretty disappointing considering how much good it could've done. Shame I couldn't do more, but, I had my eyes on the Officers - easier to pick out the shinier ones. Anyways. You taught me to climb, to shoot, and I've kept it up in my absence.

Having served within the Regalian military all of my life, I consider myself competent enough to partake and perform my part in military operations such as these, regardless of the personal risk. I consider myself adaptable to new tactical and strategical predicaments and frankly I am intrigued to see what new military theories are being put to the test. Judging from the applicant requirements themselves, it seems like something akin to airship warfare, a hotly debated topic amongst military theorists these days. I've had the opportunity to ride such twice before, something which I would very much like to try again. The far view and brisk wind, putting even the highest tower of Castle Howlester to shame. If my skills may be of assistance to the great way. Edmure Howlester.
