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?

My character would find the nearest guards to help fearing he would lose the items he had on him. If the guards did nothing he would have to gather some of the townsfolk from a near by town and have them come and stop the bandits.

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?

My character would ask what items he had and see if he could bargain a good deal. If they could not find a good price he would find another store with better prices. If he could not find a shop with decent prices he would think of starting his own shop or moving to a different city.

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?:

My character would see if it was abandoned and after some time take the items. He would post a sign in the nearest city and on the house that he had found the items and was looking for the owner. If the owner contacted him they would meet at the city and he would give his belongings to him and wish him save travels.

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 would ask him if they had any food and I would work it off because my character does not like spending his minas. Once he worked off the food he had retrieved he would ask where the nearest city was and if there was any route through there to a close dwarven town or city.

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?:

My character would see if he could reason with the bandits before they took any aggressive action. If no diplomatic solution could be made he would fight in arms with his brethren. In the end if worse came to worse he would try to contact one of the cities for aid if the bandits were to strong in numbers.
