1. You are a sturdy, penniless adventurer, keen of heart and stout of blade. Fred, your local informant, tells you that a group of orcs have set up camp on a local hill. Do you.
a) Get your sword and go and butcher them like the dogs they are (2)
b) Sneak up and see what they're doing (3)
c) Go and talk to the orcs and arrange an alliance to butcher the villagers (4)



2. You storm up the hill, sword blazing into the hapless orcs; they, being the feeble creatures that they are, fall like chaff to your mighty blade as you cut them to ribbons and the few remaining flee like the cowards they are! Afterwards the village hails you as a hero and you get a free pint a night for life in the local pub - congratulations!

3. The orcs seem to be setting up some kind of camp, sneaking around you find their baggage camp, full of many interesting shiney things, which you pocket for your own benefit. Soon after the orcs start accusing each other of stealing the loot and promptly fall about killing each other as tempers flare, none survive. You're rich and you didn't even have to raise a finger!

4. The orcs are initially dubious as to your intentions, but after you provide a map of the local area with handy diagrams to the richest targets they soon come around to your way of thinking. In a few short weeks under your direction the now efficent band of highly skilled murderous orcs have lain waste to the local area and you are the chief of their tribe, a warlord of your own evil mini-empire! Congrats!

I chose B, which is much more my style. Often depends what character I'm playing though. My cleric would just get them all drunk, tie them up, and release them back into the wild, whereas my Samurai would simply cut all their heads off, the Obakemono dogs.

And I had my money so much set on C for you.
I'm a 'B' man myself.

Heh, I chose B too... Somehow it just seemed the right thing to do ;)

Which fool WOULDN'T pick B?

Or 3 as it may be.
