    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming is when you talk about OOC info in IC or IC in OOC.

It all started with them fighting. I was only 2; they absolutely hated each other. Imagine it: You in your little two year old body, with your two parents screaming and hitting each other all through the night. I could barely get a eye of sleep.

 

About a year or two later, I escaped. I finally escaped that horrid family, and at first I was happy. Then I realized... how am I going to survive? Soon, I forgot about all my problems, since I was only three turning four. I just lay down on the damp, cold grass with my only blanket. 

 

I was 7. I was, in fact a street rat. The streets of the UK were scrawny and didn't have many nice and giving people. So, I would steal breed from merchants, drink water out of horses buckets, and I would sleep under a cardboard box behind a furniture shop. Life was definitely better than my life back at home, but still troublesome. There were people trying to find a missing kid that escaped from terrible abusive parents  supposedly escaped from "happy, loving family." But, eventually, the searching stopped. I was guessing they just gave up.

 

I had finally turned 13 and I was feeling free. I know you had to be eighteen to own a merchant stand and all that but, in time, I got a hardy job of taking care of horses. I got a better "house" and it was sort of just a bigger box, but it was much better.

 

I had turned EIGHTEEN! I could barely believe it! Eighteen!  All that work of grooming horses had paid off. I bought a pretty nice cottage and settled in. It was only fit for one person but it was cozy and warm. I was happy and bought a merchant stand once settling in my house. I sold supplies to care for animals (since I had a lot of experience). I sold a ton of supplies and soon, owned a fortune.

 

Then, I made a pretty big (and bad) decision. I donated 3/4 of my money to the poor, so once I turned nineteen, I was broke. Soon, I couldn't pay for my cottage and got kicked out (because I sort of got a "scholarship" for that house). And after that, couldn't pay rent for my stand, so that got shut down.

 

Now that I am nineteen, I'm looking for more and bigger opportunities. I still do not have much money, so I am currently sailing the seas. Soon, hopefully, I will find a nice, warm cottage again.

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?”

"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…
