Part 4 of 4
Open-ended questions
At least three must be answered. Delete the spares(if applicable). Please include at least one paragraph for each of the answered questions.

Question 1
You stumble outside into the open air after some heavy drinking in an Oserian tavern. Just before you're about to pass an alleyway, a hooded man rushes out of it and runs for it - seemingly, he has both a blade and some jewellery on him. You take a quick peek in the alleyway to see a feminine figure collapsed on the ground, holding her hands over a bleeding wound in her torso. The thief is about to escape and the woman seems in critical condition. You...

Answer: I am near drunk and probably unarmed. I let the theif run and I attend to the women. I examine the women and see the cut is deep, I take my shirt off and wrap it around the torso to try to stop the bleeding, I yell for help in my drunk state but am ignored. I have two choices, stumble back into the tavern, now shirtless and get help, or stay with her and try to heal her. I attempt to move her, but cannot. I rush into the tavern and scream for help, my words being slurred from too much of the local speciality, eventually someone approches me (let role play go from there).


Question 2
You are on your way to the Korsian city of Telth to sell some wares. Upon reaching the front gates you are stopped by the guard. They deny you entry for the time being as the traffic into the city is too high. You are effectively forced to wait in the refugee camp located between the two gates for the time being. The camp is
filled with shopping stalls and refugees sleeping on the floor. How do you spend your time in the camp?

Answer: I speak to some refugees, trying to make friends and common ground. Since the death of my parents, I have no one. Being down on my luck also, I can find solice in a refugee. The world is scary alone, take help when I can make it. I make a friend, Jaward a northern. We find some common ground in being an orphan, I ask his back story and time passes. I am finally granted into the city after a few days, but my friend is not. I shall remember him, our paths might cross again.


Question 3
You've gotten lost and wandered awhile into Drahl lands, eventually finding yourself in Crookmire Swamp, where you decide to settle for the night. Finding a meal to buy for the evening takes some effort, but you do come across an old crone in ragged clothing, who offers to sell you some sea-looking food. She doesn't ask much, but warns you that eating it is 'unpleasant' to outsiders. You...

Answer: Take the food and pocket it. I've heard tales of the crones of Crookmire Swamp, and its just pure bad luck I am here. I sleep for the night hungry, in the morning I continue my journey only to eat the food if I am near death...


Question 4
In the midst of battle, you find yourself approaching a wounded enemy soldier. The soldier is on the floor, clearly in terror as they cradle one of the dead. Enemy forces begin to advance in the distance and you know you have to act fast. The soldier then grasps at a cloth and removes it from the dead soldiers pocket. They continue to cry, and starts calling the dead soldier's name in despair. Then the soldier glances up to see you - with your weapon up - but does not care of your approach, continuing to cradle the dead soldier. You…

Answer: I have better things to do, my men need me and the enemy approches fast. I leave the solider and the fallen to their fate, whatever it may be. I heard back to my commanding officer and await orders as we need to prepare.


Question 5
You have wandered across a seemingly endless tundra for what have felt like days. A raging snowstorm makes you unable to see more than a few metres ahead. Being almost out of resources, you are delighted to find out that you have stumbled your way to a village. Upon closer inspection you find out it's a Northern village, and the residents are not very friendly towards strangers. What do you do in this dire situation?

Answer: If I still have the food from the swamp from the previous question, I'd eat that since its now my only option. Baring all consequences that may come. If I do not have that, then I keep to myself as best I can. I try to find a local tavern/inn and make chat with the keeper. Keeping my answers vague and respectful. I try to haggle for a bed and some food, assuming its granted I sleep for the night and try to speak to someone in the morning about my situation. If I am not granted food and shelter I wait until night falls and squat in an abandoned home and leave before sun rise, getting the hell out of the settlement.
