Definitions

In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is:To me the act of Role playing is getting the chance to be someone or something you aren't. And I think it is something everyone should try at least one.

In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is:Let's say that I get on a Role Playing server. There are five other people on that server. I then see them Role Playing, and decide I do not want to Role Play. Well, everything I say, takes the all the fun out of everyone's game.

In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:Forcing someone who is not an NPC to do something that they do not want to do.

In-Character Details

Character Name:Pelilasdir

Character Race: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:When my mother gave birth to me, she died bringing me into this world. My family always said I looked like her. Green eyes, tall, brown hair. But most importantly, the nicest elf you will ever meet. My father could not stand being without her, and he left me with my grandfather when I was very young. I suspect he went after bandits or some form of monster and got himself killed. But still, I had to go looking for him. By the time I was fully grown, around the age of twenty, I set off.

(New paragraph)For nearly fifty years, I have been searching for my father. I have had to hide my elfish features to blend in with men. I have had to hone my hunting and fighting skills to survive. With every passing day, I started to believe more and more that my father was dead. But I kept looking. And the one thought that kept me going was the day my father left. I was not going to live a life were both of my parents were gone. But now, after fifty years of searching, I ask myself, "Should I keep searching?"

What are your characters ambitions?:That someday he will find his father. But he is tired of searching, and does not know if he can continue.

Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here:http://i.imgur.com/Fjynx.png

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character:Only that he is almost to the verge of doing anything to find his father.

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?First, knowing that every dwarf has a thirst for ale, I would invite him to a local tavern for a drink. I would do my best to help make sure I got to know him, and that he had fun. I could tell from the way he looked, he had not had fun in a while. I would then rent him a room for the night. After he went to bed I would leave him some nice animal pelts that would help put more than one gold coin in his pocket. I would tell the inn keeper to give him my pony that I had been using to carry supplies. I could just put all my extra supplies on my horse. I and would leave the city knowing I had really held the dwarf.

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?First, I would take stock of the situation. It seems like the Orc is just playing with the dwarf at the moment, just trying to scare him. Although the Orc is more than likely going to kill him. I need to make sure i strike when the Orc suspects and attack the least. I would have to attack seconds before he killed the dwarf. Slowly, I unsheathe my dagger. I see the Orc raise his club to strike. Before he can, I run jump up on his back and slit his throat. I then go over to make sure the dwarf is alright. I tell him he can have everything of the Orc's. I then get back on the road and head towards the next town.

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 defenceless man. What does your character do?:I am very confused about what to do about this situation. As much as I want to help him, I recently spent a lot of money helping a poor dwarf. But I know I must swallow my greed, and help him up. I first look to see if he has any wounds that need patching. Since he does not, I tell him to wait there while I know and find him a nice new walking stick. I bring him back a nice sturdy walking stick that i was able to break off of a tree. I then take out my bag of coin and dump them all into my pack. I take all of his coin, put them in my bag and give it to the old man. Checking once more to see if he has any wounds, I send him on his way with some of my spare bread.
