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?
*Upon seeing the situation Helmjot judges immediately what must be done. He lunges forward at a brisk trot, his short legs pumping furiously. At 20 paces from the brigands he breaks into a full run, grabbing the axe handle at his belt and lowering his head.*
*The highwaymen, suddenly aware of his presence, try to hold the squirming halfling still while looking over their shoulder. Helmjot struck the closest of the two at a dead run, his rock like head connecting solidly with the man's groin. After a brief and grotesque sound of two large bodies hitting each other, the bandit is sent flying five feet backwards and sliding another two.
So surprised at this sudden appearance, the second bandit turned to run. He only managed to get ploughed over headfirst into the dirt road, Helmjot shoving into him with his shield while running up the back of his ankles and legs. Helmjot made sure to land solidly on top of man, hearing multiple cracked ribs for his effort.
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?
Ye kin start by pointin me towards yer best pub *stomach growls on cue*. I don't think thers much more than that however, ye see yer froufy cloths are far too delicate fer when I'm doin me dwarf stuff. An don't bother shakin me hand I wouldn't want ye to get dirty.
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?:
*Helmjot picks the sword up and eyes it suspiciously, so fine a weapon left abandoned for anyone to take? A trap is what he suspects, his eyes dart around looking for traps. Being a dwarf he has an eye for such things, yet if there is one here it escapes him. He has no use for the sword, but the gold itself calls to him. He tucks it stubbornly in his belt and walks out, expecting karma with every step.*
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?
Hail friends, I have somehow become lost in these woods. Please could ye help me at least to gather me bearings towards the nearest city. Truthfully though I haven't eaten nothing fer two days now, I would swear an oath to pay triple the price of any food ye could spare.
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?:
*Helmjot assembles with the town guard wearing his best armor and a newly painted shield. When the guards look upon this dwarf in their ranks he simply bangs his axe against his shield once and nods to them. Helmjot is young and eager for most any battle against things that bother his sense of justice.*
Anything else you would like to say?: *shakes head no*
