Section 4/4 - Open-ended questions
Please answer at least three of the questions to show how your character would interact with the world. Delete the spares (if applicable). Please include at least one paragraph for each question you answer.
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...
Mike would see a mugging occur but would ignore it and head back inside the Tavern to ask if any rooms are available. Nearly puking from all of the alcohol consumed. Mike would no doubt pass out on the floor before he could even properly get a room. Waking up in a massive hangover the next morning in a puddle of his own piss sweat and puke.

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?
Mike finds himself in a refugee camp outside of Telth. He sees many shopping stalls and decides goods must be much cheaper out here than in the city. He would look for a crossbow that he so desperately needs. He would spend hours in the stalls looking at things to buy for a cheep price.

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 start 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…
Mike would see the enemy soldiers crying, disembarking from his horse he would approach them. With no semblance of grief or misery in his eyes he would strike his blade into the soldier empaling him. He would die a long and painful death no doubt. Mike then gets back on his horse and continues on the battle.
