5. Pants and let live...

LOL! Humility is the best weapon.

1. You are a raider and you came upon someone with a farmer hat and scythe. Despite the person has a ranger boot and plate armor, you believe he may be easy kill, possibly easier since they may be melee oriented and don't have their weapon. You charge to attack them. However, you find that the enemy is extremely skilled at unarmed combat and overwhelms you. What would you do after he knocks you out and leaves? What would you do if he had killed you instead?

The first scenario probably won't happen unless someone is extremely skilled and confident of their ability to not kill me. However I would like to contact them. Someone that can hold back their punches in the face of possible death and win definite deserves my respect. For the latter, avoid him like a freaking plague.

(note this is if I take the role of a raider which I am not doing)

2. You are out scouting for a mine and came upon an area with not only one, but two mines close together and one of them is gold! However as you establish your wall, you came across 2 individual who pauses for a moment. Then suddenly attacks you. You have a boat that is nearby so you can flee if necessary but you are an able combatant yourself? Do you fight or flee?

See how good they are at tactics and stats and see if I can take one out. Also call for back up while fighting. If I know I won't be able to win, flee and call for back up.

3. You go about the hearthland doing who-knows-what and you came across a village with a mine, upon closer inspection, you find that the village has no authority. What do you do?

Depends on what the mine has and if it has any natural resources nearby. Valuable one is added to my collections. Not so valuable may be kept to give away to someone or ditched

4. You are tracking a dangerous criminal of the hearthland who is confirmed to be well armed and dangerous. You find him hiding moving to hide behind a wagon of a nearby village which you have witnessed that there are people about? What would you do?

I hide as well and attack him when he does.

5. You patrol your village perimeter one moment and detected scents on the property. You remember that was on it is a tool of insiginificance (like a low Q cauldron or meat grinder) that you have better. Would you track it?

If I am arsed to track something with a loss of something insiginificant:
Track it. Summon the thief. Memorize him and KO while leaving a runestone or letter to advise not to steal. If they are behind a brick wall, memorize personal claim if it is there and take note.

1. Get his name with my tail between my legs, find a way to repay him for being so foolish. If he had killed me, I'd have definitely learnt a lesson in underestimating possible noobs.

2. I fight. If I am a worthy combatant and I've got the skills that give me a fair chance to defeat these chance-stealers then I will fight with the ferocity of a man influenced by wealth.

3. Leave the village alone. Abandoned mines = trouble, according to forum stories.

4. People who do not know that the criminal is a criminal may see the story the other way around. Perhaps the criminal strips to wooden clogs and linen clothes and disarms themselves. What do the village people nearby see? They see me, the weapon wielding noob killer, charging towards a noob who may shout "Help!" when I sniff them out of their hiding place. What if the village responds in defending the 'noob'? What if I am taken as a potential murderer and I am set upon by the never-the-wiser villagers? I would lay low, assuming the culprit is hiding without having seen me but is hiding in wait for an attack on one of the villagers, and I'd spring upon the criminal once they've exposed themselves as a threat to the nearby villagers. A story can change within a second's glance, and I may as well wait for the chance to strike whilst the iron is burnt.

5. A snowball, insignificant, if left to roll down a hill, will become a major problem as it grows. I would track the thief, scare the shit out of him by summoning him, but then leaving a runestone warning against his actions. I've stole in real life, and I got a warning. Never, again.

I wouldn't charge in the first place, but if this were to happen, I would apologize and thank him for sparing me. Then I would trade with him. Which is what I really would have done from the start, anyways.

2. You are out scouting for a mine and came upon an area with not only one, but two mines close together and one of them is gold!

On this map, I don't really need mines, so I would probably offer to help them out getting their mines protected. On a new map, I hate to say it, but I would probably order them to leave and kill them if they did not.

3. You go about the hearthland doing who-knows-what and you came across a village with a mine, upon closer inspection, you find that the village has no authority. What do you do?

Make a mental note. Survey the area to see what other useful resources are there. Then I would tell some newbies about the site and help them de/re-claim it.

4. You are tracking a dangerous criminal of the hearthland who is confirmed to be well armed and dangerous. You find him hiding moving to hide behind a wagon of a nearby village which you have witnessed that there are people about? What would you do?

Get shot in the head and die.

5. You patrol your village perimeter one moment and detected scents on the property. You remember that was on it is a tool of insiginificance (like a low Q cauldron or meat grinder) that you have better. Would you track it?

Yep. If they were apologetic, I would let them keep it in exchange for a loq ransom payment. If they were belligerent, I'd kill them.
