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:

Grom would take out his axe, and walk over to the armed warriors and say "let the halfling go or I will have to use my axe on you."The warriors put the halfling down, but took out there swords. Grom gave the halfling an axe and they fought. The halfling got lucky and killed a warrior but he got cut in his ribs and Grom took out the other with ease. After Grom gave the halfling some food and let him keep the axe just in case he got attacked again but the halfling said "Can I follow you around untill I get better at fighting." Grom said "Sure, but you have to meet my villagers first."

So they went to Grom's village and the halfling named Arthur met Grond the village leader and gave him a spare house on rent because Arthur wasn't staying long. When Arthur grew up he told Grom he was ready to go by himself on a journey, but Grom didn't want Arthur to leave because they became great friends. Arthur said "I'm ready Grom. I am going tomorrow at dawn." Grom told everyone Arthur was leaving tomorrow and said goodbye to him. At dawn the next day Arthur left and Grom said bye once again as he was leaving.

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?

Grom would say "Do you have any armor I can buy." The merchant says he has two types of armor. Leather and iron. Grom asks "How much for the chestplates?" The merchant replies "50 minas for the leather chestplate, and 70 minas for the iron chestplate". "I need them both but I just spent it all on my shop." said Grom. The merchant said "You better go get some minas, because I am not giving it to you for free."

While Grom was hunting he found a zombie pigman and killed it. He got 35 minas and went to kill more monsters. At noon the next day he had about 247 minas. He went back to the merchant and said "I will have both types of armor for 120 minas." The merchant replied "That was pretty quick sor a dwarf, but here you go." The merchant gave Grom a leather chestplate and an iron chesplate.

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes cross 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?:

Grom would wait around to see if any one came. If not Grom would ask a near by player. They said no so Grom walked back to the abandoned house, when he got there he took out the stuff and walked out of the house. When he was outside he ran into an elf and the elf said "What are you doing with my stuff." "I was just seeing if anyone lived here and no one came for a whole day." said Grom. The elf said "You better give me that stuff back." "I found it so I get to keep it." Grom replied. The elf said "I will challenge you tomorrow at midday." "Okay." said Grom.

At midday the next day Grom met the elf at the house. Grom said "We don't have to fight this out. We can just go on our ways." The elf replied "Are you scared?" "No, lets fight." said Grom. Grom was about to kill the elf but he said "No I won't kill you I will give you the golden sword back but I'm keeping the iron ingots." "Fine."said the elf." Then Grom left that day.

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?

Grom wanders across a small trading camp and asks "What is going on here?" A human replies "This is a trading camp. Would you like a piece of bread?" "Yes I would, I've been wandering around looking for the city Solace. Do you know where it might be?" "As a matter of fact I do. I just came from there. I went northeast so you better go southwest to get there." says the human. "So back to the bread. How much for eight loaves of bread?" says Grom. "That will be twenty-four minas please." Grom gave him twenty-four minas, and ate two loaves han the cake the baker of bread right away.

Grom says " Thank you human, I haven't eaten for two days and this tastes better than the cake the baker makes at my village near the sanctuary. Okay I better get going to the southwest, but before do you have any mushroom stew." "Yes, it is usually 5 minas but I'll give it to you for free." replies the human. Grom took the stew said thank you and went to Solace.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are 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?:

Grom asked the town guard "Do you need assistance?" The town guard replies "yes and we need some people in the axe part of the group. Do you know anybody else?" "I come from a dwarf village that only uses axes."said Grom. So Grom went back into his village, but Grom was stopped by some bandits in front of his village.

Grom tried to get around but one of the bandits saw him in the bushes. The bandit walked into the bush and got hit by an axe twice the bandit was about to die Grom said "I won't kill you unless you let me get to my people in my village." The bandit said "Never." So Grom was about to give him one finishing blow when the bandit said "Wait I will let you get by if you don't kill me." Grom said "Okay, but you also have to let me get me back." "Okay" said the bandit. So Grom got the villagers, and told them about the bandits. The dwarves said yes.Then they went back to the city and fought the battle and lost no one in the axe group. They collected the reward and went back to ther village.
