    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Meta-gaming is when a player uses their knowledge from a source in Ropleplay that their character would not be able or is supposed to know and exploiting the information to benefit themselves and their character.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Power-gaming is when a player decides to act out their character as if they were able to perform actions that they normally wouldn't be able to do that is unfair for other players.

Eric Johnns was born on the 3rd of The Deep Cold on 1732 to Loliet Johnns and Mary Johnns at the city of Ves. In 1734, when the Holy Orenian Empire went to war with the Federation of Mokh-Urak, his family was heavily affected by the skirmishes between the two factions.They struggled a great deal to stay alive and keep their family safe and prospered after they were forced out of their homes, but the event left Eric scarred, and his personality shifted into being distant with the other kids, with his family as well. He also became very cold and aggressive with everyone at the camp. Everyone assumed he was just scared and angry, but as he grew into his teenage years, he was anything but. Eric became a social outcast only delving into other people’s business just to hopefully one day use that information to benefit himself. He slowly resented his parents for bringing him into a life of poverty after they tried to start a new life. While his family was poor, Eric was the only one who was bitter about the situation, while his parents were just happy to have their son with them, but Eric, of course, didn’t see it that way. He hated his father Loliet the most; despising his decisions and care-free personality which his father did just to keep everyone’s spirits up, but to no avail on Eric. A few years later the Conquest of Ruswick occurred forcing the Johnns family to relocate to another settlement. After the constant moving and war, Eric lost sense of happiness and joy in his life.

When Eric was 19, began feeling no empathy for his family or anyone else he encountered. He fell short on making friends and had no romantic desire for anyone. He was not interested in beginning a relationship. One day, Eric hit his head hard, increasing his unusual behaviors toward everyone especially his parents. He became a bit crazed and craved for something exciting to happen. He knew he wasn’t getting anywhere with the life he had at home, so he did the unthinkable: At sunset, on the 15th of The First Seed at 21 years old, he murdered his parents in a frenzy after an argument with his father. He only killed his mother out of the need of having no witnesses. Although, secretly, he resented himself for killing only his mother, as he felt she did nothing wrong and put the blame towards his father the most. But alas, he never looked back, ever. He spent weeks trying to survive on his own and when he almost seemed to give up, he was picked up by bandits and was taught a lifestyle he thought was suited for him.

As he grew older, after killing, pillaging, and stealing for most of his adult life, he grew mature in a sense for a sociopathic lunatic. He has no problem taking a life, but he never killed without reason to based on his twisted sense of morality at the least. He stole when he needed or felt like the person didn’t deserve the items they owned regardless of them being poor or rich. He decided not to raid or pillage anymore, as he felt that it was below his skill, although it doesn’t mean he will succeed every time as he has failed some raids every now and again. His own arrogance makes him believe that he doesn’t need to raid.  By the time he was in his mid 20s, Eric left the group of bandits. Eric still searches for a purpose in his life. He yearns something to lean toward to that involves something that satisfies his violent lifestyle, other than a group of measly bandits. The one thing that keeps him going, his to find power over others so that he can survive and not worry about those beneath him able to overpower him one day.

Eric looks around in disgust at the city before him. Mainly at the people that inhabit it. He does this while the gentleman speaks before him. He takes a few steps forward beside the man and Eric places his left hand upon the gentleman’s right shoulder. He doesn’t even make eye contact with the man and speaks calmly into his ear. “Perhaps you can say all three. Now, are you going to leave me alone? Or are you going to see how I truly greet those who bother me?”

Hey! As you can see, your application is almost complete! Don’t worry, you’re doing very well, but we ask that you please make the following changes to your application:

 

  • I’m not sure what you mean in the last line of your power-gaming definition, please remove it.

  • The sacking of Ves took place in 1710, the current year is 1764, and your character is 32, therefor he would have no way to be there, please fix this.

  • In your second paragraph you mentioned something that I don’t believe falls under PG-13, please change this.

  • I have a few concerns about your biography that I’d like to discuss with you, please message me on discord (stickyhon#5642).
