What the topic says.Â

If your character's friends, all involved friends being very close and dear got into a fight in which they could possibly kill each other... what would your character do? Pick sides or not? How would they try to resolve it? In the aftermath, would your character still stay in touch with all the invloved individuals, or cut contacts from some? And what if someone died?Â Surprise

Â How would that affect your character's views? (And anything else I might have missed!)

Note: Just assume the situation. And don't hurt me! *hides in blanket*

Miryn · **12-02-2014, 04:41 AM**

There would be a lot of shouting on Miryn's part. Probably some shield colliding with faces. Her instinctive reaction to emotionally-charged events is physical force first and diplomacy later. She could most likely forgive them if no one was grievously harmed, but causing death unnecessarily would definitely sour her relationship with that person. Depending on the circumstances and reasons that caused the death, she may be honorbound to hunt the killer down, even if they were once a friend.

As for changes to her views, it would really depend on the nature of whatever sparked the fight in the first place. To be super general though - Miryn's seen stuff, it would just be another notch in the cynicism belt she wears. Smile

Interesting questions, though!

Orrin works on the tenets that would rule the Azure Dragoon (as role model, he isn't one, calm down) which is a loyalty to justice, even if it is personal. As such loyalty to friends would dictate he would act on their behalf without hesitation though would not forgive a friend who abused his trust. A fight with intent to kill and Orrin will kill without question, fighting dragons and heretics does that to a person.

Yangh · **12-02-2014, 05:32 AM**

Yangh, being the Priestess of Menphina that she is would sit them down and make them talk it out. She'd have them speak their true feelings without resorting to violence or anger. Its all about love!

If they tried to fight... they really shouldn't do that... the REALLY wouldn't want to do that!

A Priestess of the lover she is... but that doesn't mean she's not a fighter, either! xD

Gabineaux · **12-02-2014, 07:42 AM**

My character would probably have a stiff drink and watch the fight, place a few bets.. if they tried to drag him into it he'd laugh and remove himself from the situation.

..Unless it was something he was really passionate about, like killing garleans or voidsent. I don't know who'd argue pro-garlean or pro-voidsent but Clementine would bash 'em in the face.

Aaron · **12-02-2014, 07:58 AM**

Aaron accidentally killed his own friend so...

Inessa Hara · **12-02-2014, 08:40 AM**

And After Aaron killed his friend, Inessa went Grimdark and nearly killed several different people on multiple occasions, lol.

But seriously, Inessa would see them as a killer regardless. Unless the death is justified by her own moral code, she will attempt to to turn the person in because her morale code dictates that the only just death is the death of criminals, murderers or people that get in her way when she attempts to serve justice by her own moral standards.Â (which would be an attempt to physically subdue the person in her way unless she was REALLY pissed, then heads will roll before its said and done.)

Melodia · **12-02-2014, 08:55 AM**

For Ruru it would depend on the friends anymore. He's gotten quite cold and would likely choose the side that would best benefit him, aside from his loaylty to senpai that is. Smile

Melodia? Hahahahaha!!! She tends to be quite violent and would likely kick the hell out of all sides and enjoy it.

Kellach Woods · **12-02-2014, 09:07 AM**

Probably doing something stupid like leap dramatically in the middle of the fight to take the killing blow.

I love Kell and all but he's a fucking dumbass when he's not smart.

Otherwise he'd just try and calm both down to a level where they're not trying to kill each other. After that it's all smiles and bringing 'em to the doctor after they're done.

Gegenji · **12-02-2014, 10:23 AM**

Knowing Chachan? Panic.

He wants to be a hero and all, but if his incident with the Thanalan wasps is any indication, when things get suitably dangerous... he kinda falls to pieces. He's working on that though! If he's lucky, he might be able to jump in to provide a litany of stuttered pleas for peace and settlement.

What he would like to do in such a situation is jump in, deflecting whatever fatal instrument is being used, and skillfully defuse the situation. If there is an obvious bad guy, they would be promptly defeated - preferably shown the error of their ways and turned back to the side of good - and everyone would go out for sweets.

He's quite the dork, you see.

Warren Castille · **12-02-2014, 10:28 AM**

The list of people this would apply to in Warren's case is admittedly not very long, but if they came to blows he'd do his damndest to stand between them and try to suss things out. Death isn't an option. I imagine if one killed the other it would lead to some very bad, very dark things happening.

Sounsyy · **12-02-2014, 10:36 AM**

Sounsyy believes in eye for an eye. I would not want to be the surviving party...

FreelanceWizard · **12-02-2014, 10:50 AM**

L'yhta would cast Sleep or something suitably incapacitating on the involved parties, then tie them up (if necessary) and force them to talk to her about the situation. I mean, after all, if they're her friends, then one of them must have had a good reason to bring things to blows. If any of them prove to be Evil and Awful, then naturally, she'd incinerate them for The Good of Hydaelyn. Like all problems, it can be reduced trivially to a snap moral judgment and use of powerful magic. Tongue

At any rate, she can certainly figure out what's going on and work things out, because she's Pretty Sort of Marvelous. Dodgy

Certainly her friends will want to stay her friends, because once they realize how she's certainly doing the Right Thing, they'll understand and agree with her course of action.

...At least, this is how it works out in her head. Smile

Realistically, she'd end up pissing everyone involved off in her attempts to break up the fight, fail to fix anything, and go off to mope somewhere before possibly plotting revenge (depending on why people were coming to blows).

Adorkable.Â Tongue

I haven't roleplayed with Aris yet, so she hasn't got any friends except my alt character. But she prides herself in her self control, and being calm and able to think quickly and logically in high pressure situations is something she's trained in. She'd try to calm the situation down gently, appealing to each of her friend's natures. If they're the angry punchy type, take them on a training session and have a good punch while figuring out the root of the problem. If the friend needed more emotional, talking support, she'd probably confide in (my alt) Nimimi about it as this isn't something she's good at. If Aris did think they were going to kill each other, she would swiftly disarm them, or if unarmed spraining someone's arm if necessary.

If a friend was killed by another friend and it was something she could have helped or stopped, depending on the situation Aris would definitely lose that self control and doubt everything about herself.Â If she couldn't stop a friend's death, why train in the first place? What did she do wrong; how can she help against bigger evils if she couldn't help her friends? Not that this is the logical thinking she prides herself in - but grief and being so close to the situation would create a messy breakdown and confidence loss I imagine. Or she might seek revenge.

I've rambled.Â Undecided
