Flint

Hi all, Here I go. I also joined Eurobricks inspired by the GoH and the many wonderful builds I've seen around. I'm not sure whether or not I will be able to participate much, but I'll do what I can. So far, I have more backstory than actual building. I would like to join Mitgardia, as Avalonia was full - which leads to the backstory: The Buraindo are a small group of monks and druids, originating from the Avlonian druids. As the Avlonian druids became interested in changing nature using magic spells and guarding themselves from the wild, some druids felt that nature was not to be changed, but that the druids needed to come off their own lazy bums and change themselves (why is it that druids are usually fat and bearded?). The faction was frowned upon by most in Avalonia, who sought to adapt the landscape to their own convenience (sissies). The faction of druids left Avalonia in search of even wilder territory and settled in the endless wild mountain forests in the South West of Mitgardia. Mainly preoccupied with studying Nature and the Universe and trying to adapt themselves to it, the Buraindo strive for the mental and physical strength to harmonise with the wilderness of Nature. The monasteries and forest dwellings are home to many monks, outcasts, sorcerers and warriors who share the common ideal of perfecting their own being to come in full balance with the universe. In other, less pretentious, words: imagine a Lego version of the Shao Lin and other Buddhist monks, training in the mountains to achieve power and harmony with nature at the same time. So far, little building has been done, but I can show you my avatar to start with. This is Flint, one of the druid monks at the monastery, out for his morning practice: I look forward to the experience. Everyone looks amazing so far.
