    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming is the using knowledge your character does not know.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: To powergame, or to power emote, is to make your character OP and to say things like *Kills first try, no dodge.*

Ailyn grew up the youngest of four brothers. This meant Ailyn had free range as a child, exploring the beaches of her home and getting into lots of trouble. One of her many adventures leads to the scar across her face though she’ll never say what it was really from. Though her family was dirt poor her childhood was filled with rich memories. By the time Ailyn became a woman her parents had decided her future for her. Marry her off to the towns wealthiest bachelor and live a quiet docile life as a wife. If you knew Ailyn you would know that she longed to see the world and adventure far from her home. The wedding was decided for the day of her 18th birthday, the family readied a beautiful necklace of fish scales, shells, and dolphin teeth as a dowry. Ailyn didn’t flinch when they entwined her tribal marks with her soon to be husband. When the day came and she was finally left alone to contemplate, she put her plan into action. Ailyn stole the dowry and gathered up all her belongings into a bag before making her way to the docks. There she stowed away on a ship to Arcas where she would start her journey in the city Sutica where she is bound to find something among the merchants and traders.

Physical Description: Typical Tuvati from the Meranesian Islands. White tattoos cover her arms and back. About 5'7 and packing some muscle. Not so modest clothing.
Roleplay Scenario: The traveller has just arrived in a small town. As they look around, their gaze is met with run down houses and shops. They duck into one of the shacks, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the small room, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town?" She begins, then pauses to study their face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a chair, “Where do you come from? What do you hope to make of yourself?”

Hey there. For starters, I really love your app as a starting point, and had I read about the Tuvati before now, I’d have made a character from it.

  • That being said, while traditions from the tribe does technically count as lore, I’d ask you add a few more too. Something more direct, like names of the lands, or titles of its people.
  • Reversing a bit, your power gaming definition is, while not wrong, not entirely what we look for. I suggest taking a look at power-emoting, too.
  • Finally, your interesting facts are lacking a defining neutral and positive.
    • I suppose carrying a fishing rod all the time could be a neutral, if that’s what you intend to do.
  • By the way, I adore  your skin.

Please, make your changes in your own time! Any questions, feel free to PM me on the forums or on discord, Laurelin#0797
