    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Powergaming is when you have your character acting in ways which are unreasonable within the context of the RP, or unfair to other players.
    It should be avoided as it removes agency (one of the fundamental aspects to playing a role) from other players and harms the overall experience. It also leads to less creative storytelling/character RP.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming occurs when someone uses information they got out of character (ie. Forums, Discord, etc) to take actions in RP/in game. Characters are separate to the people playing them, and while oftentimes you will have teh same information as a character, this is not always the case. It should be avoided as it causes characters to act in ways which can lessen/ruin immersion.

Stealing, running and hiding. That was all Cassa knew - That is who she was. Hiding behind names, Hiding behind faces. And petty thievery was par for the course she thought - being just another forgotten child of the Holy Empire struggling to get by.

Over time Cassa taught herself how to survive, which local herbs can heal her scrapes, which back-roads the guards never patrolled. She also grew bolder, spending less time lying low, lifting more than just what she needed to live. Returning to her hideout from a particularly inspired thieving spree, she noticed an dagger stuck to her door with a note attached:

 

Cassa, Looking for real work? 

- M

 

Turning the note over, Cassa saw a rough sketch of a map as well as a drawing of a small pendant. At first she thought it was a setup - she'd been burned by bad tips before, and those were from people she'd met in-person. She cased the place for weeks just to be sure she wasn't being set-up before slipping in and out during a regular change of the guard. After this Cassa continued to receive notes from "M" as well as payment for the previous job, but still never meeting face-to-face. The jobs branched out from taking items to taking information.

Character Name: Cassa
Character Race: Human
Character Gender: Female
Character Age: 24
Physical Description: 5'5", Blonde hair, green eyes
Wears worn leather
Roleplay Scenario:

"Weird questions, We met before?" Cassa asks, scanning the room and watching the hag. Cassa waits for a moment before continuing "Fine, I'll play your game. I'm from the Norland."

"and...I want to stop hiding behind other names - other faces. But I'm scared that there's nothing left underneath."

Cassa takes a seat across from the hag, clearing her throat "Now, my turn to ask the questions."

Hello there, as you can see you've been placed on Pending, there are a few more changes to your application that I will require you to make before I can accept you!

 

 

Please make these changes within 48 Hours or I will have to deny this application!
Contact me through one of the methods listed at the end when you have made the edits!

 

  1. Please ensure the following in your Backstory section
    1. Your character must not present anyone famous or well-known, perhaps remove the part that mentions you are stealing letters from nobles and listening in on important merchants on the server, your character has been in the background up until now
  2. Please ensure the following in your Roleplay Scenario
    1. Try to compact it down to a 1-2 response interaction between you and the hag as though responding in game!
    2. Avoid any mentions of character thinking and try to explicitly only express speech and physical actions through it
