    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Essentially, power gaming is when you do something that you're character shouldn't reasonably be able to do. This can involve either building your character to be inherently overpowered or by ignoring the reality within the rp and doing whatever you want. This ruins the rp because it gives the power gamer an unfair advantage over other people without having earned it naturally. Overall, it just makes the entire thing less fun to engage with.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming is when your character acts on information that was not learned by them, but by the person playing them. This can also ruin gameplay by subverting the reality of the game and world. It's like screen-peeking but with the lore and story.

-Timbo Rood was raised by his parents Jimbo and Olesa Rood

-Timbo lived with his parents at their secluded home in the mountains just north west of Lisselroke (approximately X: 2252  Z: -2226)(I'll build it once I get on the server)
- Raised as an only child by two loving parents who instilled the values of hard work and being earnest.
- After Timbo's parents passed away roughly 12 years ago, he has continued to care for the home he grew up in, tending to the crops and few animals in their barn. Now that he is on his own, he feels it is now time to explore the world and make new connections, be they with his own kind or the races of man and mali'.

-Unlike other halflings, Timbo is quite lean as a result of daily physical activity, though he does still enjoy the typical activities associated with halflings.

-While Timbo's family traces back to humans and dwarves just as all other halflings, it is believed that many of the humans early on in his family's line were highlanders. This is used as an explanation as to why the Rood family is considered to be quite queer compared to other halflings. This is also likely why the home Timbo grew up in, which had been passed down to Jimbo by his fathers before him, was away from the rest of civilized society and more in the wilderness. In the past, the Roods were considered to be unlike other halfling families due to their unusual habit of going beyond the shire on adventures. Though by current day, most halflings have forgotten the name of Rood.


Character Name: Timbo Rood
Character Race: Halfling
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 42
Physical Description: 3' 3'', 101 lbs, Semi-light brown wavy hair, dark green eyes, leaner than most halflings, daily wear consists of an off-white tunic and overalls
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?”

((How does your character respond? Please ensure your response is at least six sentences long, and uses at least two actions.))

 

*Timbo sits in the chair the hag gestured to, his head barely poking above the table before him.
"A good evening to you madam. I come from a dwelling just north of Lisselroke in search of nothing more than some interesting company."

*Timbo stands up in the chair to make himself better visible.

"That's what brings be here. It's my understanding that there is someone in this town looking for one of a halflings stature to join them. Whether they need a thief or just someone to keep the group merry, I'll be up to the task. So would you happen to know where I can find this person?"
