    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming is using information that isn’t from your characters perspective to your advantage.

Ezra is a maid of the Merton Family. She grew up, as a young child, on the streets in Renatus not knowing her family. A family of Highlanders saw her on the streets and felt empathy for her, the family took her under their wing, fed her and gave a roof over her head. When she was old enough, she became a maid for the family. Ezra never speaks of their name, only calls them ‘Madam’, ‘Sir’, ‘Miss’ and ‘Master’. Her only friend was Antony who was two years older and was the family’s stable carer. They played together in the free time and made each other laugh when the other was feeling down. But one day, when Ezra was twelve, Anotny crept into the maid sleeping room to share a cookie with Ezra. He was caught when the father of the family woke to the sound of giggling and came into the room. The father took Antony away by horse back into another city to serve another family. His final words were a whisper, ‘Goodbye Ezra’ and with a warm smile, he was taken. Then came the waiting, the cleaning, feeding and anticipation for the father to come back. After almost a year of the father, who hasn’t returned yet, Ezra packed a small bag and ran from the home to find her lost friend.

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…

Greetings Applicant! As of now your application is currently:

7ahXQbs2iIw3HfIR6Q_Drbpb_-EvZ3w8pV23PeX1wLpfdnlol5vZd-0VIn8URpZm8zl3nUMjJalqXez6aiqVUjG0S0fwpBci_ye7uxGjIwgYtUmGqhLNYkXkjmtPNgf8OzXwDA-S

- Your definition for metagaming could be expanded upon. Please provide an example for how it might apply to a roleplay scenario. For reference, in your own words refer to the following source: Wiki-Metagaming.

 

- Similarly, your definition for powergaming, whilst not wrong, could be worded better with greater reference to the server definition. Please refer to the following source and provide a new definition in your own words: Wiki-Powergaming.

 

- Your character biography is well detailed, but if you wish to apply with a character that is affiliated with a family, you must provide the verification of the player for said persona and evidence said family exists. Otherwise, you cannot apply as the servant to a noble family. This could be done via messaging me over Discord.
 

You have 24 hours to correct the issues listed above.  Once you have done that, please contact me either over the forums or discord: (Gilded#1905), then I will take another look at your application.

 

For important information such as lore and definitions for metagaming and powergaming, I’d recommend using both the Wiki and forums. Please use these sources for reference when making changes to your application. I’d also recommend you join Lord of the Craft’s New Player Discord should you need any assistance from myself or other members of the Application Team.

 

You can also contact me on the server, /msg GildedDuke, or create an /atreq on the server for help from other Application Team members. If you have any further questions don’t be afraid to ask!

What is Metagaming?: Metagaming is using information that isn’t from your characters perspective to your advantage. For example, if you knew the person you were talking to had a bow, but your character hasn’t met them yet, you call out ‘They have a weapon!’ even though your character has no idea about the weapon.
What is Powergaming?: The forcing of actions. Your actions are more like commands than actions. Meaning that the person you are doing the actions to gets to choose to imply or to reject the action. For example power gaming would be: “I stab the elf” where as you should use “I try to stab the elf”.
