Open-Response-Questions

Each 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?"Leave this defenceless man alone! The god of this world looks down on you with shame! But, if you men are willing to pay the price of combat, I accept your challange. But releace the man first!Now, leave my sight or force me to ready my bow."Now draw your weapon and prepare for the fight and end of your life. I give you one more chance to leave. No, you want to stay and fight, well say hello to your ancestors for me."

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?"Ello good sir! I was wondering if this lovely place has a designated area for new comers. asked Zmoore. "Dont know, but ye wanna buy something.?"Asked the man. Zmoore looks puzzled at the man. " No I just need directions to a place where i can get food and arms." Zmoore explains one more time. "No idea." says the man. Zmoore thinks for a bit and thinks, maybey he will help me if i buy something! "I would like

to buy that iron head peice please." says Zmoore. "Ok, that will be 15 minas." says the man. Zmoore hands over the money and says. "So now can you tell me where the new comer area is?" The man simply says " I told you I didnt know where it was. Zmoore walks away and thinks, this is gonna be harder than i thought. He walks away from the stand and sees the average look of a city, loads of people and that one crazy guy screaming "The pleage of year 37 WILL RETURN and put an end to us all!" Zmoore walks away slowly but decides to go back to the merchant and buy a sword.... just in case.

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?::"Hello! Anyone here! Looks like its been destroyed over the years. Wait, whats this. A chest filled with someones valubles. I wonder what this place looked like before it was taken over by wilderness.Wait, I can sell some of these things. No, I can't, dead or not these are someone elses belongings. I can not become a crimanal, My father would look down on me with shame. It is best i just leave now and nerver return." Zmoore hears men coming in his direction."That

could be the owner of this house!" Zmoore runs into the woods without being seen. As he looks from the brush he sees 3 humans walk into the clearing in which the house sits. " Look at the pile of dirt." says the tall one. "Don't call it a pile of dirt yet Yamata look what i found." said the "thicker" one. He comes out of the house holding the sword and ingots. Zmoore thinks to himself "Well that could have been diner!" "Good heavens Grothen we are getting ourselves a stay at the Oren in tonight!" says Yamata. As they walk away Zmoore comes out of the brush with a childesh mopey face and continues down the path.

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?"Thank the heavens i have stumbled apon your little camp. The wilderness is a dreadful place if you are a new comer like me. Not to be a bother but do you have any scraps of food to spare? And i would also like to know where the closest town is?" At the same time a man draws his bow and Zmoore throws his dagger and it plunges into the mans leg. He falls over in pain. "Now, all I was doing was asking for directions. But if i'm being a bother, I will leave now." Zmoore walks away carefuly with his bow at the ready.

In case they do anything out of the norm. As he feels his feet crunch under the leaves a trap springs and he is suddenly up side down. He sees the men encroch on him and thinks to himself. "Only i can get this lucky."says Zmoore in a sarcastic tone.

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 hear there are some bandits outside the walls of this beloved city. I am willing to join your party to defeat these trouble makers. All i would like to know is if the men you are hireing are going to get us killed?But, if you trust these men i am willing to come with you on your quest. "Ok men lets ride!" says the leader." "But before we go, do we have a plan of any kind? We cant just go run out there!

They could be waiting for us, or there could be more then we thought. I say we take time to figure out if this is worth it or not, but if you disagree... I will still go." Says Zmoore in a worried voice. "Very well then! we will leave at nightfall!" Says the guard. As they leave the gate of the city they see the lights of the camp in the distance. As they advance around the perimater the Guard leader screams "ATAAACCKK!!!" All the men charge into the camp were about 6 bandits are sitting around the fire. The sound of swords clashing in the night air with sparks flying everywhere can bring a normal man to his knees. As Zmoore shoots a bandit in the chest he sees the Guard leader get killed by a dwarf weilding a battle axe.

At that very moment all the men retreat back to the castle. And in the middle of the battle feild stands Zmoore and two more bandits. He draws your sword and say "Prepare yourself!"

Anything else you would like to say?:I thank you for taking the time to read my application. If there is any reason you need to contact me my name is Zmoore on the Forums.

Accepted.

I noticed a few things in your application that made me "cringe" slightly.

Firstly, when you're in-game - I have to ask that you put your best effort into spelling correctly. There were quite a lot of spelling errors throughout your application that were a bit... Hm.

Secondly, your definition of power-emoting is more power-gaming, however I will let it pass this one time as it's still quite the same.

This is a quote from wowwiki.com, of what power-emoting actually is:

Power-emoting or god-emoting is an act of forcing the result of one's actions on another character, typically without the other player's consent and not giving the other character a chance to do anything about the emote.

The rest of your application does show that you have read up on our server lore and understand what role-playing is, and how to do it, so I am more than happy to accept you to the Lord of the Craft, although you only just made the mark - as normally that error with power-emoting would have resulted in a denial.

Please attempt to learn that. I'll implement you in a moment.
