    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: First off just imagine what i would do if i was in the scenario. Second, instead of saying *Jumps on player and kills them* I would say *Attempts to jump on player and kill them* This gives the other player a chance to decide their actions. Another example is instead of saying *My character dodges every hit and never gets hurt* You say *I Attempt to dodge, but i might stumble, I've been wounded before* This avoids power gaming by not making your character overpowered, and also doesn't make the other player helpless.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming disrupts fair roleplay by giving a character knowledge they shouldn't have, which then can give them an unfair advantage over other players or make the scenario unrealistic. For example lets say there's a spy in a kingdom, the king sends player A the spy to the other kingdom. Player B a regular player who is apart of the other kingdom goes onto player A's live stream and hears him say "Ah yes they don't know I'm a spy yet" Player B Then reports to the king and Player A's act of a spy is over. This causes the roleplay to be unfair and unrealistic for both kingdoms.

Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 29
Physical Description: 6'1, 180 lbs, brown hair, green eyes, and cloaks
Roleplay Scenario:

Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”

((How do you respond?))


"My story you ask..?" (Darmus states with a puzzled look on his face) "Well, I am originally from a small town within the dark forest. That town is called Riverland. When i was just a young lad, my father took me out far far away from town." (Darmus states while slightly chuckling) "Once we arrived at the chosen location, he pulled a long, dark, wooden box out from behind his back. He handed it to me slowly, while stating." "Open it my son!" "I took a look inside of the box and there I saw, what appeared to be an expertly constructed iron spear..." (Weeks had passed of Darmus training his skills). (Suddenly Darmus felt a sense of worry This unusual feeling compelled Darmus to rush back to his village) "My village is being raided by a HUGE band of goblin's!" (Darmus stated with an apprehensive tone) "I could take them on with my new spear skills." (Darmus figured) "As soon as I arrived I had got knocked away by an aggressive goblin. I overheard his crew name him as, Urgruff. Once I had hit the ground, I looked up and saw, my father being attacked by this so called Urgruff." One move after another Darmus's father was knocked down. Darmus jumped up trying to save him. "as I saw Urgruff impale my father through the heart. I ran to his lifeless body with tears in my eyes. I began screaming for my poor father to wake up. Soon after I had stood up, Urgruff began charging at me angrily. I fled to the nearest village called Shadowford. Once I had arrived i quickly warned the villagers. RIVERLAND IS UNDER ATTACK" (Darmus screams with a horrified look on his face) Thats when a kind lady with the name Helga had taken Darmus in, as her own. To this day he still searches of Urgruff and wont stop until he get his revenge. (Also the map was broken so i couldn't find a place on the map to reference in my story sorry.)
