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?

William approaches, asks what is going on and listens intently. He has his sword close at hand should things turn for the worst. William will do what he can to protect the halfling.

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?

William asks, "What kind of wares do you have?". After browsing the goods, William asks how he gets his wares and if he could use "The best trading services in the land" because William only gets the finest goods

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?:

Leaves it be. William remembers when his house was robbed and how he felt as a young boy when that happened. No one should have to feel that way.

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?

William tries to communicate through mimes and pointing, also throwing some money over to the people at the camp. Again, William's sword is never too far away in case the situation getts ugly.

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?:

William immediately joins the cause. Blocked roads mean less trade, less trade means less money in Will's pocket. Not to mention rewards are always nice.

Anything else you would like to say?:
