Definitions
In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:
Role-playing: Taking on a different identity, whilst playing a game, in order to enhance gameplay experience, adding immersion to the game, and allowing your character to represent yourself in a way that still fits in with the game's setting.
Meta-gaming: Using information that your character wouldn't normally have in game. (For instance, calling a friend in game by their real name instead of their in-game name, or even discussing something irrelevant to the game that breaks character, for instance going out for dinner later on that evening.)
Power-emoting: Using a emote in a way that is unrealistic in a gameplay situation to gain an advantage. (For instance, *silveg strikes [Player] with his enchanted sword killing them."

____
1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a
dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he
is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do
you do?
I creep behind a large brick pillar carefully watching this figure I then carefully sneak from behind the pillar to the entrance of the palace and tell the Guards there is a possible threat pointing towards the figure, I then rapidly walk out of the palace.. Upon looking back, I see the guards arresting the man and questioning him, however he then takes a knife out and the guard and sucessfully slashs his neck, however the other guard is there to put him down.
A week later I return to see this criminal being executed, the constable says a few words and then the criminal is hung, I feel somewhat happy however not overall impressed with myself.
2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armor and an iron long sword, how do you react?
I slowly draw my sword and confront the bandits, tapping one of the bandits on the shoulder he turns around slowly but looks shocked I tell them that the man if very old and has no business with them, they become very angry and I offer them a couple of Minas coins to be on their way. The bandits accept my offer and quickly walk from the cottage, I then proceed to walk the elderly man into his home where I received two Minas for my good deed. The man was also nice enough to allow me to stay until I could continue on with my adventure, he fed me, gave me some tea and nurtured me until the next morning I continued on my adventure.
3. You are standing within the mighty human capital when you notice a small man standing behind a colorful stall. You approach the stall and notice that the man is selling a variety of general goods - he says that he is selling just about anything and that he has no set prices. He is willing to allow you to haggle and choose prices. What do you do? (Explain: your haggling, items of choice and the discussion that happens).
I approach the store where I see a brand new pair of linen shoes, my current ones are full of holes and are very tight on my feet causing me much pain, I tell the man that I have traveled many miles and that these shoes would be a luxury to me offering 10 Minas coins and my current shoes. The man feeling sorry for me accepts as long as he can also take a loaf of bread that I had just bought, I agree to this and we are both happy with our trade. However after buying the product I find a small note inside the shoe, I take it out and read it it says
“Hello,
You may not know me but, I have a proposition for you, meet me at the fountain tommorow and we will discuss”
Signed
“A friend”
However I see this as too fishy and I alert the guards of this, they follow me to the fountain and hide, I then see a cloaked man walk towards me, he pulls down his hood to reveal it was the same man who had sold me the shoes, I look at him, confused until he explains to me that he was looking to hire shop keepers for his stall, I then ask him why he didn’t ask me when I first met him and he replied saying that “That wouldn't of been fun at all would it of?” I then signal to the guards there is nothing wrong and then finally decline the mans offer, I then travel along the road towards Salvus, looking for adventure.
