Definitions

In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is: To me, roleplay is becoming your character, and viewing the world through his eyes. It is feeling the emotions and thinking like your character.

In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is: Using outside knowledge to your characters advantage. Exp: You read the history on the website, but your character wasn't at Aegis or read history books, so how would he know what happened there? He doesn't, but when you meta-game, the character acts like he does know.

In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is: Power-emoting is basically just doing things your character wouldn't be able to. Exp: You are surrounded by bandits and all you have is a wooden sword. You type," Kills all with magical fireballs of death" essentially killing the other players, even though you have no knowledge on magic.

In-Character Details

Character Name: Malicor Firre

Character Race: Dark Elf

Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:

Malicor was abandoned at birth by his parents. He grew up in the wild, learning to craft from the wood of the trees, and eat from the food of the earth. From the time he was very young to when he was about 11, he usually went off into the city of Arethor, looking and scavenging for what others considered trash. Broken bows he could fix, to some leather armor. Except in his 5th year of doing this, he was caught by the local blacksmith. The blacksmith had questioned him thoroughly, only to find out he had been raised alone, barely learning how to talk by observing the humans. The blacksmith took him in and treated him as his own.

The blacksmith taught Malicor how to forge a sword, and how to fight. Malicor thought it interesting that this human had taken in a dark elf, when he thought most humans hated the dark elves. Malicor worked handling the Minas, while the blacksmith, whom Malicor had begun to call father, made and repaired the weapons and armor. Malicor had become use to handling money, and was often very good at it. Once, he had raised the price of a sword ever so slightly, just to make a few extra Minas for himself. When his father grew old, Malicor begun to run the shop on his own. His father, although weak and frail, was very proud of his son.

The day the blacksmith died, Malicor was deeply saddened. Through his childhood, he had made many friends. Many of them had been there with Malicor at his fathers death. They were all saddened as well. Malicor saved as much money as he could from the sells, and on his 25th birthday, he sold the shop. He decided it was time for him to begin a life of a proper merchant. One who only stayed in place for a little while, never settling. This was hard for his friends, but not as hard as it was for him. These people had taken him in, and treated him like family. Now he was leaving, and of course he would come back to see them, but when? He decided to continue with his plans anyways, and so he began his journey to the world.

What are your characters ambitions?: To be a good merchant, selling the finest of everything.

Open-Response-Questions

Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?

As I'm walking up to see my friends after being away for so long, I see a dwarf wearing nothing but rags. I walk up to him and I say, "Hail dwarf! How is business for you?" He glances up at me and says, "To be quite honest with you, horrible. I don't know what I'm doing wrong! No one will buy my wares!" I look at him, and it reminds me of when I first started to work for the blacksmith. "Here, allow me to help. I, being a fellow merchant, have acquired a few tricks to doing this sort of thing. You have to make it look appealing. For example, don't just say that iron sword is an iron sword. Say it is a finely cut, double edge blade. Hear the difference?" He looked at me with a smile and then proceeded to say, "Thank you. I will try to use that from now on. Why don't you pick an item and consider it a gift?" I thank him and proceed to go meet my friends.

You’re wandering the Oren Road late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. There is no help nearby, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?

As I watch the dwarf get picked up by the Orc, I draw my sword, trying to remember everything the blacksmith taught me. I quickly attempt an attack at his feet, trying to disable. The blade cuts him and he yells in pain. "Try picking on someone your own size!" I shout while I attempt to knock him to the ground. He quickly turns around and smacks my foot away. "Me think you want the Minas. Well, you won't get any!" the orc says. The dwarf runs away in fear. I get distracted and the orc slams me to the ground. He picks me up and yells at an ear shattering level, "You cost me the Minas, so now you will pay with your life!" I quickly roll to the side when I see the orc about to attack me. I stab him, and the orc is about to attack me again when he is restrained by the authorities. "Now, now. We don't want anyone getting hurt here, do we?" the first guard says. "And you, elf! Next time, don't attack the orc. I have a half a mind to arrest you! Next time come to us." I walk away, thinking it might have been too late to save the dwarf if I had gone to him.

Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenseless man. What does your character do?:

I hear the Minas spill all over the floor. I hear the old man fall to his knees. I quickly go and help the old man. "Are you okay?! You took quite a fall." I said. "Yes, yes, I'm fine. Would you mind going to go get my Minas?" he asked me. I quickly go to recover the Minas, after sitting the old man down. I then proceed to go to Malinor, and break off part of the tree. I then go back to the man, give him the Minas, and the walking stick. "Thank you kind elf. Why don't you take some of that Minas for yourself? Go ahead, I don't mind." he said while smiling. I then take some of the money, and go on my way.
