Every since he was a baby he has grown. This growth never seemed to stop. At the age of 14 he was 5’9’’ tall, and at his current age, his length nearly reached 6 foot. Ever since a young age, his poor parents forced him to work in the fields of their old farm close to Ruriksgard. That is why this farmer boy has developed serious muscles, and why he is renounced for being an amazing arm-wrestler. Ever since he grew stronger than his abusive father, he has vowed to himself that he would one day leave his parents home. And as Pjotr came close to his sixteenth birthday, he packed his bow and knife and left for the rough shores of Norland. Here he enlisted on a small fishing ship, where he learned tying knots, and how to sail. As often with rebellious teens, he rebelled his captain and was left on one of the many islands of the western archipelago. Once there he lied about his age to be enlisted in the strong Ashguard. There he turned out to be to coarse and ham-fisted to wield a sword, so the militia commander gave him an old double-bladed axe. He seemed to be a natural at using the enormous weapon, and soon he was renounced for his fighting skills while using light leather Armor, while wielding a giant double-bladed axe. After a year he became bored of the endless training sessions, so during one of his nightly watches, he snuck out if the military camp to search for adventure and to take on challengers head on! Now this red haired giant travels from jar to jarl, as a mercenary on a quest for fulfillment.

Character Name: Pjotr the red
Character Race: Highlander
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 18
Physical Description: This is an almost 6 foot red-haired young man, carrying a big longbow, and an enormous double-bladed axe on his back.
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.))

"Oh, I just, uh…" The traveler stutters, tensing up. They eye the crone, then back outside the shack. For a moment, the air thickens with anticipation, until…

in the application my explanation of meta- and powergaming is cut off. I didnt know that there would be a maximum amount of characters. therefore i post the whole explanation here now:

Metagaming consists of three core points. The first point can be summarised into “when a player bases his actions on information his character could not have acquired”. (e.g. when you use a dynmap to predict/adapt to a possible raid/attach from other players. The dynmap gives you an unfair advantage). The second point could be included in the first point, but stands apart in the fact that is based on hidden information. An example of this would be looking/ going through players through walls (if they aren’t crouching), because their nametag is visible. The last point would be informing other players who your character couldn’t possibly inform on certain things. (the most famous method is using the /msg command to ask for help)

Powergaming could be summarised in two points. The first point being when your characters performs actions which wouldn’t be possible. (e.g. a 300-pound 4ft. dwarf jumps over a highlander human standing 6 ft. tall). The second point would be when you perform actions which another player can’t defend himself against. (e.g. a forest elf says that he shoots another player right through his heart, instantly killing him)
