Back Story: Shruiken grew up in an old quiet wood; his family were all mighty elven warriors, amazing with the art of the sword. While growing up, Shruiken was never that good at fighting with a sword, although he trained all day long but still did not know which end of the sword to hold and was always bested by his brother, Eredor. Although he was good with a bow in hand, his father, Lanolar, did not aprove of it. He used to say ‘’Only a craven would choose to shoot a man, you should at least honour the man and stand by him and watch him die as you kill him’ ’ He hated his family, they treated him like dirt, just because he could not wield a sword as good as his brother. He was under pressure and was always in the shadow of his 'amazing' brother. One day Shruiken went to see his weapons master to ask him to help him train with a bow, his weapons master agreed to help him while they were practicing his Father, Lanolar stormed in, took the bow and snapped it in half, "Can you do that with a sword" exclaimed Lanolar, Shruiken Stormed off into the woods, and never came back since that day.

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?

I walk towards the armed warriors 'Excuse me, What do you think you are doing?' I say. The warriors turn towards me 'None of you buisness, Elf!' They reply. 'Actually' I say 'I do think its my buisness, you are clearly harassing this halfling, leave now and i will spare your lives' They both laugh 'Look at you, you couldn't fight if your life depended on it' One replys. I Draw my bow and notch my arrow so fast the armed warrior who spoke is still smiling when the first arrow goes throw his boot into his foot. He screams in pain and charges towards me, sword out, i block the blow with the middle of my bow and kick him in the stomach. He staggers back. The other warrior draws his blade and smiles 'You shouldn't have done that, elf' He says. 'Yeah, your right. I should of done this' I say as i drop my bow and draw my one handed sword. I dance towards him, eyes never leaving his face. I see which way he is going to strike as he shifts his weight to his right foot. I swivel under the blade and strike him in the arm, then jump back again so quick he doesn't know what happened. He looks to his companion and they both advance forward. I change my posture to deal with the oncoming enemies. I know i have to go towards them if i stand any chance. One of the warriors pulls the arrows from his foot, Grunting as the arrow leaves his bone. I seize my chance and dash towards him, cutting at his mid section. I hear the satisfying sound of steel cutting into flesh as he drops to the ground, mortally wounded. The other warrior screams some sort of war cry as he watches his fallen companion life drip out of him. 'Good' I think 'Now he is angry he will have no technique'. I was right. He charges towards me with his sword streached out behind him, leaving his body completly open. I again jump towards him, and slash at his throat, but he has played me. He jumps back and swings his sword which catches me on the leg. I stagger back and pick up my bow. 'Leave now' I demand, arrow ready to be shot. 'You will die' he replys. I didn't really want to kill him. My master always told me to spare a man if you could but i could see no way out of this. I mutter a prayer to my master and advance towards the enemy. I strike him once, twice, three times. So quick my the blade looks like wind. He drops to the ground dead. I turn towards the halfling, nod, and walk away, bow and quiver on my back, sword by my side. Justice is done

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?

'Hello sir, Do you have any fine wines for sale?' I ask politly. He looks me up and down,I suddenly realise what i must look like. Dirty clothes from 5 days of hard travelling. 'Like you could afford any of my wares, elf' He says 'I am the best merchant in all of Alras, And i dont sell my wares to peasents.' I looked at him in disbelief, my temper rising. 'I would be surprised if you could sell any wares with that face of yours, was your mother an orc?' I reply, hotly. I see his face grow red with anger. ' How dare..' I cut him off 'Look! All i want is a damned drink, If you won't give me one i shall buy one from someone else' I take out my money satchel and throw him a coin. 'Buy something for your breath' I say 'It smells like an orcs armpit' As i walk away i look back and smile at the look on his face.

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 arrive at the the small hut, i slowly open the door and step inside. The small room is layered in dust and a small bit of light was entering from a window. The flies danced in and out of the beam. I spotted a chest and walked over to it. The lid creeked as i opened the lid, inside were a few iron bars which i had no need for. However, a sword caught my eye, i picked it up, feeling the weight balance. IT felt right in my hand, the sunlight dancing off the blade. I had a strange urge to take it but i knew it was wrong 'A person should never take something that does not belong to them' My blind masters voice echoed in my head. 'I understand master' I whispered. I took one last look at the blade, put it back in the chest, and strode off.

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 see light up ahead, i had been wandering among this damn place for 2 days, i was hungry and i was tired. I didn't care if this firelight was orc raiders, atleast i would be put out of my misery. I slowly approached them, quite aware by the amount of noise i was making. I walked into the clearing feeling dizzy. I looked upon smiling faces before i collasped of exhustion.

I woke some time later, My body aching in agony as i tried to stand. Rough hands held me down 'Don't try to move to fast laddie' A gruff voice said. I looked up and saw a dwarf male, in his late 40's with long red hair. 'Where am I?' I said 'About 4 miles from the nearest city' He replied 'You walked in late las' night' and fainted, Ha! That sure did make our night' He chuckled 'If you feel up to it, laddie, We can take you bac' to the city' 'Um, yeah i feel well enough' As he led me to the city he explained him and a few other dwarfs were hiding from raiders. 'Well, Here you are friend' He said as we stopped outside a city' 'Thankyou so much, i wont forget the kindness you showed me friend.' I said 'Farewell, Elf' 'And you, Dwarf' We shook hands and parted.

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 walk over to the guards 'How many of them are out there?' I ask 'Looks like under 20 of them. We are looking for all the help we can get, will you be able to help us.' He offers me 40 minas. 'Keep your money, i will help, but i dont require coin for a good deed.' I Say 'Then you are unlike most people my noble elf'. I follow the guards onto the road. The bandits emerge with their swords drawn and charge. I set up and take four of them out with my bow. I then shealth it and follow the towns guards into the battle. I dance through the untrained bandits, Slicing them easy as cheese. I see the towns guards doing a good job. I come across the leader. He swings for me with an axe and i barely manage to scramble away. 'He wants to play like that' I think to myself as i shift my weight to my right foot prepering to strike. He quickly glances to his left and see's all his companions dying around him. The town emerges with sticks and swords. The bandit leader and a few other hastilly run away, sensing defeat. I can't let the leader get away, otherwise he will just get more men an attack. As the townsfolk are cheering i pick up my bow and notch an arrow. I breathe steadily and remember my training. I release the arrow on my exhale. It whistles throw the air and i hear the leader scream out in pain. I say a silent pray for him as i run up to him and plunge my sword throw his heart.
