You have been approached by an adventurer...

[Lupine Volt]

One day, you are approached by a space marine/dragonborn/grey warden/spectre/defense attorney/white wolf/fairy boy/etc. They need your help in order to save the world/country/city/town hall/princess. What do you do, and how do you do it?

 

[Fantasylord]

BUg someone else I'm am totally not interested in sticking my head out for this messed up world.

 

[Versuvius]

I used to be an adventurer, until i took an arrow to the knee.

 

[Fieldy409_v1legacy]

I tell him to fuck off and go back to drinking my beer wolverine style.

 

[Jedoro]

I grab my Mossberg 500, Colt 1911, and ammo, then ask why we haven't left yet.

The deal better come with either Death Immunity or Infinite Resurrections.

No?

Then become the ultimate Villan. You'll still die, but at least you'll live a lot longer then all your minions or innocent bystanders or Hero's Expendable Companions.

One day, you are approached by a space marine

I do what any loyal servant of the Imperium of Man does - I fight for the Emperor of Mankind.

I ain't no stinking heretic.

What if it's Dark Heresy! I'll bring my flashlight!

I am a rogue. I roll to steal his pants.

 

[Azo Galvat]

"I would help, but I took an arrow to the knee a while back. Sorry!"

 

[Leemaster777]

I'm assuming that I have adequate proof that said calamity is real, right? Like, a giant spaceship is blocking out the sun, or my house is on fire because a dragon took a radioactive dump on it? I don't want to rush into battle with a crazy guy off the street who's just making this shit up.

And yes, I'd join him. Not sure why he'd want specifically ME to join him, but I've always wanted to save the earth, so I won't question it.

Do you know how good "I helped save the earth from Cthulu" looks on your resume?

 

[DFDelta]

Considering my preferences in games:

If its something fantasy I'd get my lute and crossbow ready, and prepare to tell them tales of bravery and stories of heroism.

If its a

space marine

then I'll grab my bolter and go hunt some filthy xenos.

If its something else exchange Bolter for some other dakka-efficient weapon.



EDIT
Fixed quoteFAIL

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Just repeat the same line, over and over, until they walk away. Something catchy, but kind of spastic, to make them always wonder about what I meant. Something like "I am Error."

 

[Cazza]

I would ask them to get me 10 bear pelts.


It's their job they do it. You don't see Link needing any help to save the world. They shouldn't need my help. If they do we need a new hero.

 

[Zhukov]

So basically I have the chance to be an adventurer's companion?

In that situation I would... fucking run.

If there are any children nearby, pick one up to use as a shield. You never know when those adventurer types are going to go postal.

 

[ChupathingyX]

A Space marine you say?

Let me go grab my flashlight and cardboard armour!

 

[White_Lama]

What I would do?

should suffice.

 

[Jubbert]

Start floating into the air, then phase into the ground. When he tries to talk to me, I'll say something casual, like "I work at the markets. It's fun, but hard work!"
