In-Character Details
Character Name: Aulten Krandel
Character Race: Human
Character biography – Aulten Krandel was raised in a tree house high above a jungle floor. His father was a logger who cut down jungle trees, while his mother has a jungle native. They were forced to live by themselves, because the jungle village did not approve of their love or the logging of jungle trees. Growing up in the jungle, Aulten came to love to eat cocoa beans. However, his mother had retained her religion, which found cocoa beans sacred. Whenever Aulten was caught with a cocoa bean, he was beat with a vine whip. These beatings unintentionally started being focused on his right ear, causing him to be slightly deaf in that ear. This, however, did not diminish Aulten’s love for cocoa beans; in fact, it made him want them more. Also during Aulten’s upbringing, his father taught him how to log. Soon, Aulten grew to be quite handy with an axe, logging along side his father.
When Aulten turned 23, he was kicked out of his home; his parents fed up with his constant defiance. This, however, did not bother the go-lucky Aulten. He simply just began to eat as many cocoa beans as he wanted. One day while lazily living in the jungle, feasting on cocoa beans, it started to rain severely. Aulten escaped the rain by hiding under a huge branch. Unfortunately, a panther joined him under the branch. Aulten barely fought off the panther with his axe, obtaining a scar under his left eye. This incident made Aulten realize that he needed a home and some friends. To make this possible, Aulten decided to go to the city and become a cocoa bean salesman; combining his love for cocoa beans with this life’s work. Aulten enters the city life with his normal enthusiasm and cheerfulness. As he always says, “As long as there is skin on my hands, there will be cocoa in theirs.”:

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? Aulten Krandel walks over to the dwarf and starts a conversation. They discuss trade prices and different ways to collect the wares they are selling. Aulten says to the dwarf “I do not have much friend, but here I have collected these beans just yesterday, you may sell them here and hopefully they will bring you good profit.” Aulten hands the dwarf a bag of beans, approximately 300 in all. The dwarf gratefully accepts and in return gives Aulten a small silver ring.
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? Aulten runs over and talks the Orc. “Why do you threaten this dwarf, what has he done to deserve this?” The Orc replies by telling Aulten that the dwarf owes him a great deal of money from a shipment he had him deliver. Aulten suggests that the orc give the dwarf some time to pay off the debt, and perhaps even charge a small amount of interest. The orc lets go of the dwarf’s collar and warns him he doesn’t have long. Aulten then faces the dwarf and says, “Listen, I do not know how much you owe this Orc, but here, take this silver ring, it was gifted to me by another of your kind. Sell it and pay the Orc.” The dwarf graciously accepts and runs off to the nearest market.
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?: Aulten first helps the man upright and makes sure he is not hurt. Aulten then continues to pick up each coin and place them back in the bag. The old man questions him, “Why did you help and old man like me? You could have easily made off with the money.” Aulten replies, “I am a business man, how could I proudly sell my wares if I was a thief.” The old man thanks Aulten and tries to repay him with a few coins, Aulten tells the man to keep them and helps him to his home.
