Open-Response-Questions:
Each question in this section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.
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?
Answer:
Leonidas would not rush to attack the person until he is entirely sure the figure is attempting to breach the palace.
*Leonidas walks near the shady figure.*
He would do the above by examining the figure and looking out for an unsheathed blade or climbing over palace walls.
*He then looks at the man, checking for any weapons.*
The shady man seem to have a dagger on his hand.
*As he sees the dagger, Leonidas moves towards the guards.*
Leonidas: Guard, there may be a man who may be breaching the palace and he's carrying a dagger. I think he's up to no good.
Guard: We send some men to have a look. Thanks for letting us know.
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?
Answer:
*Leonidas see the bandits and at the unstable old man.*
*He then walks towards the men, looking around for any traps or anything suspicious.*
Leonidas: Lay down your swords. Otherwise, you shall regret it.
*One of the bandits laughs, showing off his heavy armour.*
Bandit One: Haha, go on. What, you going to be a hero with that sword and armour. If I were you. I would start running now!
*Leonidas shakes his head, starting to walk away.*
Old man: N- no, please. Don't hurt me!
*Bandit Two sends a punch towards the Old man's chest.*
*Leonidas turns around, looking at the bandit.
*Bandit One looks at Leonidas, sliding his longsword out*
Bandit One: You seem to be too slow. And we can't afford to have witnesses. Sorry lad'.
*Bandit One runs towards Leonidas, trying to stab him.*
*Leonidas quickly moves to the side, removing his iron sword quickly.*
*Bandit One fails to stab Leonardo as he moved to the side*
*Leonidas moves behind Bandit One then tries to send the sword towards the bandits right leg. Injuring him badly but not killing him.*
Leonidas: I did tell you. You'll regret it.
*Bandit Two turns to look at Leonidas while he's injuring Bandit One, removing his bow and some arrows in a very fast manner.*
*Leonidas removes the sword from the bandits leg, noticing the distance between him and Bandit Two is too far to run towards him. He is ready to attack with the bow.*
*As Bandit Two is concentrated on Leonidas, he is aiming at him. The old man sends the iron blade though his chest.*
*The Bandit falls to the floor. Coughing some blood.*
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).
Answer: Leonidas would see if the seller could possibly be hiding anything under his sleeve as Leonidas is always wary of rip offs. If the man is clearly good he would attempt to buy materials required to build himself a property, if the seller declines he would only raise the amount he is willing to pay if he thinks it is worth it for the amount he would have to pay. if the man continues to refuse, he would use compliments and jokes as a last resort.
*Leonidas walks towards the stand, nodding at the man behind.*
Seller: Greetings sir, would you like to see any of my wares?
Leonidas: Yes, of course.
Leonidas: So what are your prices, my friend?
Seller: Quite good. Best prices in the whole capital!
Leonidas: Interesting, I need to build myself a small place. I got mostly everything needed back at the spot. I just need some more wood supplies. How about 15 minas?
Seller: I'm sorry, but I don't go that cheap. My friend.
Leonidas: Make it 20.
Seller: Seems like we got ourselves a deal. Good trading traveller.
*Leonidas pays the Seller 20 minas, he gives Leonidas some wood supplies.*
