Personality (at least four sentences): Kahlan is smart and fair, all part of being a confessor. She's a quick and strong fighter, caught by her father. Her loyalty and sense of duty meant she would die for Richard and the mission. Kahlan understood her role and that sometimes her destiny was bigger than her own feelings and her own needs. She has been unselfish, compassionate, and determined.
History (at least four sentences):
Kahlan was born and raised in the Midlands of the New World. Due to her race and position she, like the other Confessors, only had friends among the other Confessors. As a child, she was taught a great many things about war and sword-fighting by her father. Although girls in the Midlands were not meant to shoot a bow, Kahlan took it up as a diversion when she was young, before she began taking confessions.
Before Kahlan became a woman, her mother was stricken with a terrible sickness which no healer could cure and died shortly thereafter. Dennee's mother took in Kahlan and comforted her. The two girls, best friends, became sisters, and this helped ease Kahlan's pain of losing her mother. Dennee did not have the strength of power that Kahlan did, and over time, Kahlan became her protector, shielding her from situations that required more force than she could bring from within. Kahlan would often go to take confessions in Dennee's place, to spare her the torment of the task. Kahlan, too, disliked taking confessions, but she was stronger, wiser, and more reflective and thus better equipped to handle it. She understood and accepted that being a Confessor was who she was and she could not change anything about it, and so did not hurt her the way it did Dennee. She recognized and accepted that she had no choice in the matter of her powers. Kahlan had always been able to put her head before her heart.
She eventually headed to the Midlands to look for the First Wizard so he may have declared a Seeker to fight Darken Rahl. After finding the wizard and the seeker, they embarked on a mission to stop Darken Rahl and close the rifts of the Underworld.
RP Sample (at least four sentences, but must be as the character you're applying for):
Kahlan looked around the forest for tracks. She was lost and needed to find a way out. If she was with Richard, he could have led the two of them out. Though she had many skills, tracking was not one of them. Birds were chirping, but she couldn't determine where they were. If only they started flying. Then, she might be able to determine where in the forest she was.
It was starting to get late. The sun wasn't at its highest anymore. Kahlan knew it would probably get dark in a couple of hours. If she wanted to get out, she knew she had to do it soon. There was no way she was going to spend the night in the forest. Richard, Cara, and Zed were probably half a day away by now.
A deer popped out of woods into the pathway. Its head turned to look at Kahlan. She tried to communicate with the deer, but speaking with animals weren't one of her skills. Within a few second, it dashed away. "Wait," she called out to the deer. She dashed after the animal. Maybe the deer could show her the way out.
