Definitions
In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is:
The act of roleplaying is making up a fictional character and playing as him/her in first person through their daily life.
In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is:
The act of meta-gaming is taking information from out of character (OOC) and acknowledging or using that information in character (IC). An example would be say you were on teamspeak with a friend and he said he was selling iron. And you walk up to him on the server and say, “I heard you were selling iron, could I get some?” Meta-gaming is treatable, thankfully.
In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:
The act of power-emoting is emoting with a one-sided advantage. What I mean by this is for example: “Azrak punches the guard in the gut.” That is power-emoting. It should be: “Azrak attempts to punch the guard in the gut.” This gives the player a choice as to what he/she can do with the role-play.

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?
Azrak walks over to the poor dwarf immediately feeling compassion for him. “Ello lad, wut migh’ ye be sellin’ dis fine day?” The poor dwarf looks up seeing a fellow dwarf and responds with a smile. “I be sellin’ some ore, an iron sword, a few apples, and an iron pick axe. Would ye like to buy anythin’?” Azrak thinks to himself for a few seconds before responding as he pulss a bag of minas out of his satchel. “I believe I ‘ake tu apples and five iron ore.” Without another word out of the dwarf, Azrak generously gives him 200 minas. The dwarf looks down and a big smile grows on his face. “Dis is incredible! I shall go open a shop. Tank you much! ‘ere are yer items.” Azrak smiles and takes the apples and the ore nodding and walking off, proud that he made someone’s day better.
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?
Azrak seeing a fellow dwarf being harassed goes to investigate. Watching from a distance he sees that the dwarf is beginning to be threatened. Knowing that an Orc would never want to take on two mad and armed dwarfs he walks from behind the tree with his axe drawn. As the Orc looks to Azrak he throws the other dwarf another spare axe. “I suggest ye leave de dwarf alone caus dis won’ end well fer ye.” The Orc looking to each of the dwarfs sees there is no end to this that will favor him and turns around stomping off. Azrak turns to the other dwarf swinging his axe onto his back and taking the spare on back. “Dat wa’ a close one.” The other dwarf handing him the spare axe, nods. “Aye, tank ye fer yer ‘elp.” Azrak nods and walks off.
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?:
Azrak seeing the poor man fall to the ground immediately runs over to help him up. “Are ye’ alroight? Ye took qui’ te fall dere.” The old man looks up then to his minas on the ground. Azrak seeing him being a little uneasy he reaches down and picks up the minas. “I believe des belongs to ye eh?” Azrak smiles handing the bag of minas back to the old man. “Ah, yes thank ye so much for helping.” Azrak helps the man up. “Not a proble’, always me hono’ to ‘elp.” Azrak then turns and walks off.
