    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: If I were to use knowledge that I gained out of character to affect In-character role play then that would be metagaming
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Forcing another character to accept an attack or something similar even though theres no roleplay reason for the attack to succeed. It's a form of control.

William was born to Marcus and Maria Inkstone, his father was a bookkeeper while his mother washed laundry. He has only one sibling a younger sister who was always the family rebel, though when she trudged through the door with bruises, cuts and scrapes their mother was always there to clean her up. While his sister was out exploring their village William spent his time chasing stories and myths, when he was around eight or so his father gave him a leather bound journal, and from this William learned to read and write. The small journal quickly grew to a monstrosity of paper and leather as he kept gluing in more and more pages as he wrote down near everything he even vaguely considered interesting. His parents were devote Cannonist, as such William and sister grew up saying their prayers, and going to mass.. though being children at the time they either struggled to stay awake or were wide-eyed with fear. As such William and his family are willing to go out of their way to serve the Church, and any other followers of the Cannon Faith. 

 

As with all young boys, William came of age and sought to make his own way in life. Leaving home with a kiss on the cheek from his mother and a firm handshake from his father, William set out to create adventures of his own, chasing the dream of becoming like the heroes he read and wrote about. What this adventure will be he has not a clue, though he knows that one day he will become immortalized in myth and legends... He hopes as a hero but as the old cliché goes.. "The Road to Hell is paved with the best of Intentions."  



(I just wanted to add this in here, I work somewhere around 80 hours a week! I will not be the most active player, so the best times for me are on the weekend (Friday evening-Saturday-Sunday) During the week I travel for work and will not have my computer there with me, though I will have my discord/email and of course the forums if somebody needs to talk to me.) 


Character Name: William Inkstone
Character Race: Heartlander
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 20
Physical Description: William is about six-foot two, light brown hair tied back. Blue eyes and paled skin.
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.))

Example: (delete this when you add your own)

"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…

Hello there! At this time your application has been placed on,

-411YhbE_bfwXg4V8em_Z3qz-7Dj4TViUTU_Oe9eWKf2a-ZDRBTi17j-GfUvINxR7fWCwIduw25r1IBZWJwF3iYtYCHK_DIyOp5JAtGMynVdJcLDrpH32LD3UX3CKeyinLqGxyEJ

 

Ø  Your powergaming definition is a little off, please revise this. The best place to get the most correct info is our Powergaming wiki page :)

Ø  The lore reference you chose, being the true faith was dissolved almost 60 years prior to the current day in roleplay, so it wouldn't really make sense for your character's family to follow that particular faith.

Ø  You need to include at least one weakness within your three interesting facts

 

Your application was good, but there were just a few issues that need editing. You have 24 hours to make the changes

 

The Wiki has lots of important lore information, as well as the metagaming and powergaming definitions, please refer to this when reapplying. You can also join our New Player Discord – Where you can ask questions to our Application team, and meet other server players.

 

You can contact me here on the forums, through my discord (Ivoryyy#8860) or by /msg Ivoryyy_ in-game. You can also /atreq on the server if you require assistance from any of us application team members!

Edited, the powergaming edit I hope is enough. I understand what powergaming is; However, it's difficult to put it in my own words in such a short space? 

Character A: I swing my broadsword and decapitate you. 
Character B: I block the attack with my shield 

(ooc) Player A: You can't block the attack, I cut off your head. 

Etc etc...

Anyways sorry for the late edit I oddly enough did not get an alert that someone had commented on my profile, I'll pay closer attention tonight. Thank you again for reading though all this.

Great, I see you've made some of the edits listed above! You're just lacking the one required lore reference now (since you removed the faith reference, as per my feedback), which can be a city name, world event or similar

 

This is the last thing you need to add, then you're all good to go!
