    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Powergaming is the imposing of one's own will in rp over someone else in a way that their character would not have been able to normally. A prime example is auto-succeeding in a roleplayed attack and deciding exactly what kind of damage would be done.

Martin Castyre is the youngest of a line of Savoyard mercenaries, a proficient, professional family practice that excels as personal bodyguards to merchants and nobility, and as stout warfighters. This tradition had been carried through the Lotharingian Civil War by Martin's father. The war, and the terrors his father experienced in it, made his young father into a hard, cold man. His father saw only mistakes in the horror of war, only the errors of each and every soldier's technique, kit and so forth. Bent to not see his son end the same way as he saw so many others, he pushed Martin from birth to be the best that he could be, training him hard, often and brutally. Martin's mother left for another man, never agreeing with Martin's father's attitude towards the raising of their son and resenting the cold man that was raising her son into another cold man. However, by the time Martin was ready to start taking contracts of his own, he had found his sire dead in his bed, finally gone to rest with the others from the bloody war. Martin didn't shed a tear, that wasn't the way he'd been raised, he simply went to take his father's place, informing his new client that he'd be taking the place of his father.

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…
