    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: A community of players acting co operatively according to a set of rules, spoken or unspoken, to tell a story through their game play. This means making their own story out of a game, not necessarily the one the game designers intended, if any story was originally intended at all.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Finding ways to circumnavigate a part of the challenge of a game that is designed to make it fun. This is not just limited to making yourself invulnerable or being able to instantly kill anyone easily, but simpler and smaller things that are designed to help you to avoid the challenge or limitations of the game.
    Status: Accepted

Born as a Maehr'sae in Haelun'or, fingolfin was an orphan, his mother having died in childbirth and his father having left and been corrupted by an archdemon in the search of dark power. However, few high elves could ever truly be considered an orphan, as the community became his family. He was giving tutelage, food and shelter by his neighbours, and learnt many lessons on the importance of truth and courage. However, his growing up without parents gave him a feeling of superiority, of being able to do things on his own, and his arrogance and similarly lead to a cruelty to those he considered pathetic, stupid or evil. He had a burning curiosity, which had been greatly encouraged by his teachers, and learning as much as he could from them, he turned his eyes to broader horizons, not simply that which he had been taught. He has also been taught the value of manners, although his friendly exterior will often rub off quickly if someone proves to be what he would consider beneath him. Unlike many other high elves, his focus is more on people's character, what they value and how hard they will fight for their values matters more to him than their homeland or even their race.

Character Name: Joshua Shortridge
Character Race: High Elf
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 18
Physical Description: A tall, pale and slender figure, with long ears and white hair, graceful movements. Not very physically strong, hard eyes.
Roleplay Scenario:

"It is a pleasure to meet you! My name is Fingolfin, and I am looking not for a greater share of adventure, wealth or status, but rather for knowledge. Do you know of any who are wise or knowledgeable who may teach me?" Fingolfin asked, his hard eyes almost pleading for a confirmation that his trip had not been for nothing. "Well, there are some wise elves and men, higher up by the keep" the gentleman murmured, thinking hard. He suddenly snapped his fingers, a wide grin spread across his face "of course!" he exclaimed, "there is an university over there, get in there and it will take many years before you have learnt all they have to teach you" Fingolfin bowed his head slightly in appreciation, "my thanks" he said, "I greatly appreciate your advice", and he made his way towards the building pointed out by the gentleman. Suddenly stopping, he turned to ask what the gentleman's name was, but when he had turned the gentleman was already gone. Turning back towards the building in mind, Fingolfin walked onwards, his curiosity bringing new vigour to his limbs after his long journey to the bazaar.

One small thing should be fixed, but I'll let it slide this time as long as you understand. It is not allowed for one to write into their backstory that a parent has been corrupted by an archdemon! Furthermore, as long as Fingolfin's actual knowledge of magic is very barebones, you're good!
