Open-Response-QuestionsEach and every question must be answered with a minimum of a single full paragraph and entirely in RP.

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?

Colt sees the halfling being harassed by the two armed warriors and runs to a nearby tree. He climbs up the tree to get a vantage point on what is occuring. He confirms that the two warriors are trying to rob him and have a sword to him. Colt pulls an arrow from his quiver and with a fantastically placed shot disarms one of the warriors. The other warrior not knowing what is happening flees the scene. Colt jumps from the tree and moves in. The warrior is frightened "Please please have mercy I do not wish to die!" . Colt responds " I shall not give you mercy but I will give you the gift of grace." and the warrior runs off. The halfling says in relief "Thank you sir please pelase take this coin in gratitude."Colt tells the halfling "No you keep it just be careful putting yourself in situations you can't get out of.

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?

Colt replies "Mornin, I'm just passing through do you know where I can find any work?" The merchant explains to Colt " I have been having trouble with a group of bandits trying to extort my stall." Colt is delighted by this news "I will gladly go hunt these fellas down for you at no cost do you have any hints on their location?" The thankful merchant tells colt "The bandits are stationed under Alras they have a very valuable possesion of mine if you get it back I will greatly reward you." Colt makes his way into the tunnel system and finds a group of armed men. He listens to the conversation about them robbing a farmer earlier that day, he has confirmed that these are bandits. He approaches the entrance of the room and begins to dispatch all of the men with arrows. Once all the men are dead he begins to search the room and finds treasures but one stands out to him. A ring that lays out in the open on a wooden table he assumes this is the merchants ring and takes it. Once Colt arrives at the merchants stall he hears "Oh it's you I didn't expect you to be alive did you find my ring?" Colt replys amusingly "Of course I'm alive and heres your ring!" The merchant pays Colt 100 Minas and lets him stay with him for the night.

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?: Colt finds the iron bars and sword in the hut and leaves them in the chest. He values truth and decides to spend the night in the bed. In the morning a he gathers his things and leaves the hut. On his way out he sees a hooded man run into the hut. He goes back to investigate this to find that a thief has stolen the bars and sword. He chases after the hooded man and catches him along the road. He shouts "I demand you to drop those bars and the sword!" The thief looks back and runs. Colt pulls an arrow from his quiver and fires it at his leg. The man has fallen to the ground. The thief trys to explain " I am homeless me and my brother need money and food to survive I have no other choice!" Colt bargins with him "If you put back the items you took I will spare a loaf of bread and some coin" The thief accepts the offer and they part ways.

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?

Colt " Hello! I've been lost in those woods for days I'm glad I've came across you." Hunter " You look so ill would you like something to eat?" Colt is relieved by the offer "Yes!" The Hunter hands Colt a mutton. Colt asks "Where is the nearest town?" One of the other hunters reply "Were headed back to town tomorrow morning if you would like you can tag along withus. The next morning Colt and the hunters make their way to town. Colt "Thank you guys for all your help please take this bow I have acquired on my journeys. The Hunter "Thank you! This is an amazingly crafted bow I won't forget this." And so Colt and the Hunters part ways.

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?:Colt puts on his armor and creates his arrows. He arms himself with food and potions and makes his way to the posse. "I have come to help rid the road of the bandits!" The leader says "Great I think we have enough men lets move." The group make their way down the road and come under attack from the woods. They run for cover one man yells "Where are being shot from?" Colt shouts " The woods at the giant rock theres 3 archers!" Colt leaps from cover and begins to rain arrows on the rock. One of the men from the group come from behind and eliminate the archers. The leader is astonished by the teamwork and offers to split the reward but colt says "No I did not kill the bandits this man did give him the reward." The man "Thank you sir I hope we meet again." The posse disbands and make their ways back home.

Anything else you would like to say?: Nope

Reasons:

• Your role-playing definition is incorrect.
  
• Your metagaming and power-emoting definitions need to be expanded.
  
• Cliche biography. Your parents being killed by bandits is a very cliche and overused backstory on our server. Try to think of something more original?
  
• You need to include more server lore in your biography. Show us that you are at least a little familiar with the places and major events of our world. You can research the lore on our Wiki here.
  
• You need to expand more on your character's skills and ambitions in your biography. You biography should provide reasoning behind those answers. For example, why is your character most skilled in archery? You haven't mentioned anything about any archery training or practice in your biography.
  
• Be careful of powergaming your archery abilities. Disarming a warrior at a distance with one arrow seems a little overpowered. So is eliminating an entire room full of men. Essentially what I'm saying is you can't be a master bowman who hits with every shot. You can enter Asulon with some proficiency in a skill, but not as a master right away.
  
• Incorrect formatting.
  

Please use the correct formatting in your next application as it makes the application significantly easier to read. You can do that by finding the application format here, and copying everything inside the white box. Then paste it somewhere, and begin filling in your answers outside the tags, like so:
