Yes, these are my perspectives, not my character's.
I hate being an arbiter because:
A) everyone accuses my char of being corrupt Usually
B) everyone accuses my char of being inept Almost always
C) my characters cabal powers are too weak It'd be nice if there was some cabal power like a "Refuse Summoning" so we don't get pulled away from our guards or other Arbiters.
D) I can't even kill people in town without a good reason I prefer not to PK in or out of town.
E) I have to come up with a half assed reason to kill in town I kill criminals. That is all.
F) of lack of depth in roleplay and interaction with others Yes. My only interaction is disgruntled criminals and bossy Arbiters.
G) of too much obligation with cabal duties No.
H) of too much immortal interference in cabal No.
I) I, ummn... actually I love it It's nice to feel like a part of something, but I feel I'm the unappreciated part.
J) I am an incredible badass Not really.
K) I suck My character's abilities are not defined by being an Arbiter.
It's necessary to protect the laws of Thera because:
A) we are protecting the innocent Trying to, anyway.
B) we're helping people Trying.
C) people should have locations where they are safe Should.
D) somebody has to be in opposition to Entropy Only when Entropists break laws.
E) proper handling of the law isn't possible just with coding No matter how Arbiters or coding is handled, not everyone will be satisfied, nor will the laws.
F) interaction between guards and people isn't possible just with coding *shrug*
G) having enforcers of the law enhances roleplaying Yes
H) we, ummn... it isn't really necessary Throws in an extra aspect to CF. Makes areas mostly safe.
I) I am an incredible badass I'm not.
J) I suck How well my character does has no affect on the need for order.
I love being an arbiter because:
A) I love play characters who help people Yes
B) I love play characters who do the right thing Yes
C) I love to kill people who are below my range and cannot fight back Only criminals.
D) I love to flag people, assuring their eventual death Only criminals.
E) I love my cabal powers Could still be better.
F) I love all the fucking loot I get Sometimes, but it rarely keeps me alive against all the other hero criminals.
G) it's all about the Shield of Justice, baybee Nice shield, must admit.
H) I love to be in a position of authority Yes.
I) I love to put the smack down on Entropy Only when they're criminals.
J) I, well, I hate it but somebody needs to do it Often.
K) I, ummn... I'm fucking miserable... delete delete SERIOUSLY have considered.
L) I am an incredible badass I'm not
M) I suck I don't. But being an Arbiter gives me a little more than I have by myself.
(The final question should not be taken in the context of CF)
A female in a business suit stands before a desk. A man is sitting at the desk in front of a computer. The woman holds several papers and is speaking with the man. Write
a short story describing what is happening in this scene.
They are co-workers and she is talking to him as he researches/plays CF online before they go to lunch together.
