    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Useing out of character info to influence In-Character choices.

    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Powergaming forces an action onto another player, without giving them a chance to respond. It's like declaring that your actions are sucessful as soon as you do them.

Born into a family of traveling merchants, Yorik's life has been on the move since the very beginning. Of course, this exposure to the world quickly taught him the many dangers out there, from wolf packs to bandits.

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?”

Very solid application! I really enjoyed it, and it seems you have a very thorough understanding of powergaming and metagaming.
A few recommendations before you begin playing on the server. You don't need to do any of these, but I would strongly recommend to!

 

- Join the new player discord, if you have any questions, these players would be more than willing to help! https://discord.gg/XKAD74U
 

-Create a forum account! Although it is not required, a lot of roleplay posts go up on the forums, and having an account will let you have an input on various polls that happen on the server! Additionally, if you would like to apply for a magic, or a creature, you will need a forum account to do so.

-Have fun! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to shoot me a private message on the forums.
