All I remember waking up in that human mission all those years ago. I was almost ninety-nine back then. The only things the monks has told me was that I wandered in one night confused. They had given me shelter and food. In repayment, I learned how to farm and hunt with a bow. They had taught me in the way of worshipping their human god. They also made me shave off my beard.

Now almost one hundred ten, I have left the mission, with my bow at my side, to learn what happend all those years ago. I still have nightmares where others of my kind are being slaughtered, but all I can do is watch. My tar black hair is already turning white with stress. I just hope I may be able to learn what happened to me before my time is up.

Open-Response-Questions

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond?

I watch from a safe distance and wait for the two armed warriors to leave. Once they leave, I approach the halfling, and assist him or her by offering minas or food. I then escort him or her to the nearest town with an inn. I then find the nearest guard and report the incedent.

Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response?

I respond nicely and ask him for directions around Alras. I also ask if there was a town with an inn inn nearby to get a quest and a nights sleep.

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:

I wait for a couple of hours to see if anyone who lives there returns. If they do, I politely leave, while giving them minas for letting me stay. If no one comes, I take what is in the chest.

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond?

I kindly respond back to them, asking them for shelter, and if they do off me shelter, I kindly assist them with anything they need. I also ask, if they knew the directions to the nearest town. If they didn't I stay with them. If they did I make my way there.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?:

I tell the guard that I would join if they equip me with light armor and a bow, since I am not skilled with a melee weapon. We then march off to fight the bandits. I stay back with my bow and pick them off one by one while the guard fights in the front. When the bandits are finished, I tell the guard "No payment needed, I was just helping clear up a public nuisance."

I'm sorry, but you have been Denied. This doesn't mean you won't get on the server, it just means your application needs to be improved or changed first!

Proofread your application and fix spelling/grammar.

Work on your definitions of roleplaying, metagaming and powergaming.

Flesh out your character's strengths, weaknesses and personality.

You need more detail in your open reponse questions. Tell more than your character's initial reaction, including dialogue and details of any combat. You need to really explain the scenario and follow it to its end. There is no "would".

There are no NPCs to hand out quests on LotC.
