    How do you avoid powergaming in roleplay?: Metagaming is using outside knowledge that your character should not have the access to in an RP scenario. Example: an infamous thief is hiding in a cave near the city you, a guard, is stationed at. Seeking a hefty reward, you look through a Discord Chat
    How does metagaming disrupt fair roleplay?: Powergaming is when you force a result onto another player. Example: instead of typing out "Jason cuts towards Hans, delicately aiming for the pulsing veins on his throat", you'd write "Jason cuts towards Hans' throat, slashing the veins into two halves a

Ø  Please make sure that your character’s biography is written in a clear and straightforward manner. While it is fine to be a little creative, try to refrain from using too many analogies as it can make it unclear as to what you actually mean. Remember that the character biography is written from an out of character perspective.

 

Ø  Unfortunately, your character could not have been born in Avalain as it has not existed for long enough in game. For places that your character was born in or lived in as a child, please find places from the previous map/continent of the server named ‘Atlas’. While Atlas is no longer inhabited, your character would have lived there as a child. Only use places from the current map, ‘Arcas’, for places that your character may have visited in the last ten years or so.

 

Ø  I am uncertain as to what you mean in the part about ‘Coun-vean-eine-ance’ and how this affects his family’s reputation. Please make this clearer or remove it.

 

Ø  Your character cannot possess any magic whatsoever and must be one of the four descendant races or a Halfling. Please be sure to make it clear in your character’s biography that your character is just a human and not truly a cursed creature.

 

Ø  Everything in your character’s biography must be from/fit into the server lore. Saying that if your character’s ideals aren’t replaced by himself, it could ‘disrupt the four great elements and banish all of reality into a pit of never ending pit of doom’, would be extremely lore breaking.

 

Ø  Your character’s physical description should describe more about their physical attributes such as hair colour, eye colour, build and any other distinguishing features.

Hello Aquaquean,

 

I tried to implement the changes you requested to the best of my ability, but I’d like to clarify two things:
The part of “...disrupting the four great elements” is purely hyperbole, and not literal. Just an over exaggeration for the sake of comedy, but I did remove it since it may have been confusing. Additionally, “Coun-Vean-Eine-Ance” is another joke, as it’s meant to a tongue-in-cheek reference to “convenience”. Hence, his ideals and actions change for “convenience”. Also, I apologize for not clarifying that the character is not actually cursed nor magical. Him being a “curse” is just a piece of deprecating humor. I meant to convey that the word “cursed” is being used similarly to how someone may say that the streets of New York City are “cursed” with traffic. However, in the aim of reaching clarity I removed that as well. He’s also human, as stated in the Character Race section below the biography, and I changed most instances of the words “being” and “creature” to “person” or “him” to better clarify his race. The aim of my character is that he is equivalent to the poor comedy relief characters often seen in sitcoms, so if there’s anything that might indicate him possessing a serious power/advantage, it’s most likely not the case.

 

I tried to adhere to your comments as best as I can, so please notify me if there’s anything more you’d like me to do, or if you’d just prefer me to scrap the whole backstory and write it in an extremely straightforward manner. I personally would prefer not to have to do so, as it could detract from the main theme of the character, but if you deem it necessary, then I will do so.

 

Thank you,

Ghostnn
