However, the ranger dissapeared one day, for reasons unknown. After a week of waiting, Serva began to run out of food, and departed for a nearby trading village. He found an apprenticeship under the village's smith. A year later, he left the village to roam the land. He bagan practicing use of a bow and arrow while he was traveling, expanding on what the ranger had taught him.

    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? Serva crouches in a tree. He can hear the cries of the halfling below. He silently nocks an arrow in his bow. He pulls back to his cheek and sends the arrow into one man's calf. The first shot is quickly followed by another, taking the other man. The shots would wound the men but not kill. Seeing both men disabled Serva hops out of the tree and enters the clearing. Making sure none of the three men had any fatal wounds, he began to escort the halfling to his destination.

    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?Serva asks the man a few indirect questions to learn about him. Seeing nothing wrong, he began to barter with the man. Serva stayed at the stall for a couple of hours, buying the man's goods before selling his own, in hopes of getting a better deal. He stayed for an hour more and walked away from the stand a bit richer.

    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?: Serva exits the house. He checks the clearing for signs of life. Seeing enough for a human to live at the house, he enters the hut. He takes out some goods out of his pack. He took the items out of the chest and replaced them with a stone sword, three diamonds, and a full set of leather armour. Feeling that this was fairly higher than the worth of the items in the chest, Serva walked out of the house, sure that his conscience would remain clear.

    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? Serva acts politely, knowing these people may be his only chance of survival. He gives the six iron bars in his pack to a blacksmith in return for food and a place to stay. He agrees to work for the smith as long as he stays in the village. Exausted from his "unplanned detour" he turns in early. He says his prayers and lays down to sleep, sure of his survival for the first time in days.

    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?: Serva turns the deal away. He has all the money he needed, and needs to get ready for the road. The bandits are the town's problem. He also didn't want to go making an enemy of an entire gang, since he doesn't reside in a town and is on the roads often. He wen't back to his room in the inn, thankful his throat probably wouldn't be slit quite yet.

    Anything else you would like to say?: I want to say that I can for sure uphold Serva's attributes. I specifficaly spent the last two days tailoring him to my strengths.
