Family elders are expressing disapproval of you to the rest of the family. Do you:

Accept the criticism and change your ways?

Seek a compromise with them?

Besmirch the reputation of those expressing disapproval as you ignore their scorn?

Silence them any way you can?

Would you give up a promising career to aid the family in time of need?

In a heartbeat.

Yes, with some reluctance.

Only if I was certain I'd be able to return to my career soon.

No.

Would you betray a family member to advance your own career?

Yes, without a twinge of guilt.

Yes, if I could do it secretly.

I'd resist the temptation.

I find the very idea abhorrent.

Do you respect the leaders of your family?

Their words guide my actions.

They're role models for me.

They're often out of touch with my life.

They're out of touch with reality.

A powerful but corrupt judge offers you wealth if you'll testify against your friend. Do you:

Condemn your friend and take the money?

Take the money and testify, but try to keep your testimony ineffective?

Refuse the offer and refuse to testify?

Testify on your friend's behalf, no matter the consequences?

How do you view lifelong commitment to a single romantic partner?

Romance is a waste of time and potential.

I have or want such a romance.

I worry I'd miss out on what others have to offer.

Tie yourself to one person? Huge mistake.

Do you insist on repayment when lending money to friends?

Yes, and I write up a contract so there's no misunderstanding.

Yes, but I try to be flexible about the exact terms.

No, although it's sure nice to be repaid.

No, they just owe me a favor.

Your community is threatened with invasion. Do you:

Help defend it to your last breath?

Defend the area with the rest of your community?

Flee as soon as things look grim?

Cut a deal with the enemy to act as a spy?

Do you respect the laws and authorities of the community?

Yes, without question.

Yes, they're generally the best way to govern.

When it suits me--there are some laws I just don't agree with.

I don't pay attention to the authorities; they've got no hold on me.

If you were offered a reasonably lucrative deal, would you spy for a hostile foreign power?

Yes, because this nation could stand to be knocked down a peg.

Yes, because the nation's secrets mean little to me.

No, because I might get caught.

No, because I'd never violate the trust my nation puts in me.

Do you accept a noble's right to treat badly the serfs who work on his land?

Yes. They're lucky they're not slaves.

Yes, because sometimes only fear will motivate them.

No, nobles should rule as kindly as possible.

No one has any "right" to treat another badly. Period.

If guilty, would you confess to a crime?

Yes, because it is my duty to do so.

Yes, because it might get me a lighter sentence.

No, I'd make the magistrates prove my guilt.

No, and I'd try to "prove" my own innocence.

What is the best use of wealth?

To help the destitute and less fortunate.

Provide for the needs of friends and family.

To stay on top of the heap yourself.

To not only stay on top, but keep others from climbing to your level.

If you accepted a job or contract, would you try to finish the task even if it got much more dangerous?

Yes, my word is my bond.

Yes, because it's good to have a reputation for dependability.

You can bet I'd be renegotiating.

If it's no longer a good deal, then the deal is off.
