= ﻿3. __I wish I were a ... //**lord**//__ = = I wish I were a //**lord**// because I would eat more meat and I would not have to eat all of the crummy food that an **//archer//** would get.Right now I am an //**archer**// but someday I will become a //**lord.**// I also would have a bigger amount of land because I control how much land I give the people in the manor. I would also be in the second highest class in the **feudal system** which would mean that I would be considered as royalty. //**Lords**// are also the people who have control over the whole manor (**not the //king//**). I would be the person to decide how much land the people on the manor get. Now on the other hand I would have to **pay more taxes to the //king//**. People would bother me about how much land they wanted. I would have to give some money to the //**bakers**// and the //**serfs**// for them to grow crops and bake bread. I would also have lots and lots of rights such as giving out land to the people on the manor. I have to keep the people in the manor from going rampant and destroying the manor. Some of my responsibilities would be to make sure that the //**serfs**// get enough land to grow enough crops for everyone in the manor, to make sure that all of the manors have enough //**knights**// and //**archers**// to protect the people in the manor, to check with //**serfs**// to make sure that the manor has enough food for everyone, and to make sure that the manor is as safe as can be. This is why I would rather be a //**lord**// than living a busy life as an //**archer**//. = = =

= ﻿__4. Modern day Archer__ = = My knighthood character is an archer. Archers are very tough warriors, they like to train hard. Archers fight through very tough times. They take a huge part in war. Archers' jobs make them risk their lives. My archer has to practice all different kinds of stealth missions such as jumping,accuracy shooting, and obstacle course in the forest. My archer listens to whatever the lords and king tell him to do. He is a really nice archer because he guards the king and the whole manor. He is also a great archer because even though he has a very busy schedule he always finds time to spend time with his family like reunions, parties, and meals with his family. = = = = __Qualities of Roy Halladay__ = = My modern day archer is Roy Halladay. He is my modern day archer because he has almost the same qualities as my archer Philip. The qualities that Roy Halladay has are; he is strong like my archer, he is a person who keeps fighting through like my archer during wars, he has a goal set for himself just like my archer, he is willing to fight through tough times like my archer, he is very brave like my archer, he likes spending time with his family like my archer, he likes what he does for a living just like my archer, he never backs out of a tight situation like my archer and those are the qualities of my modern day archer: Roy Halladay. = ==

= __Short comings of Roy Halladay__ = = The short comings of Roy Halladay are that he is not able to spend a lot of time with his family when the Phillies are on away games. He also doesn't jump through a forest for practice. He doesn't make a life and death decision for his job. Roy Halladay does not have a job which makes him guard anyone. Roy Halladay does not fight in wars at all, Halladay just plays baseball for the Philadelphia Phillies. Those are the short comings of Roy Halladay compared to my medieval archer Phillip. = = =
