    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Remembering that this is a shared storytelling experience is key. I think powergaming comes from people who haven't participated in roleplay before. You aren't alone in this experience, you aren't the main character, and It's not usually fun for anyone but you to do something on the scale of bad and cheap deus ex machina in a movie. I personally avoid it by making sure all my actions are motivated by my character, who they are, their limitations and morals, or anything else that keeps them grounded to the reality of the world we're in.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: metagaming is plain and simple not fun. The whole point of roleplay is to act and live as the character you create. The moment you let things outside of what your character knows effect your gameplay, you're no longer roleplaying at all. I love DND and I pride myself on staying on staying in character, and doing things as they would in their world even if I, Leo, know that it may end up being bad for my character, they have no indication of that and continue to act in the way that makes the most sense for them.

Character Name: Diviyat "DIVI" Ata'ikru
Character Race: Orc
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 18
Physical Description: an Uruk, 6'6, his skin is a blue, with a hint of purple in the sun. He weighs roughly 270 lbs, and has long dark hair. his eyes are a light green.
Roleplay Scenario:

Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”

((How do you respond?))


Divi looks up at the woman and bows.

"Salutations to you my good sir", Divi says in a deep voice.

"I'm from the Horde of many tribes but, I'm looking for my real family." Divi takes a couple of steps towards the old hag.

"I'm hoping an old and wise gentleman like you could help me find my way. I was raised by liars. My 'parents' are Uruks, And I'm clearly and elf."

Divi does air quotes as he says parents.

“I have heard of the Silver State of Haelun’or here in Aevos, point me there, so I may learn how to be...”
Divi does another bow, this time deeper. with his size you'd think he'd fall over face first with how deep this bow is, but he keeps his balance.

"More proper, like I should have always been raised to be."

The hag can't tell if she should laugh in his face or take him seriously. Divi stares at her with a blank expression.

"Oh, I'm Diviyat Ata'ikru by the way, but- my friends call me Divi"
