    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: I attempt to make sure everyone has a good idea of the rules, and also only fair advantages I attempt to keep. For example, if someone says, “(character) lands a heavy blow on (character),” that is powergaming. However, if they said, “(character) tries to hit (character) hard,” I think that would be acceptable. Because powergaming is the overpowering of the character, and forcing of an action onto another player, I try to not do it, and I try to make sure I give the other person/character an option on what to do next, not immediately assuming their actions/forcing an unrealistic action or move on them.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: If I have inside info on, for example, a battle or raid, and I told my friends to get on and help me, that would be metagaming because I’ve given more info than what should’ve been given to these characters and my own character. It can disrupt roleplay because it is so reliant on the outside world, and the fact that metagaming is just acting on information unbeknownst to a character can perhaps lead to powergaming as well.

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?))


Example: (delete this) 

"Oh, I just, uh…" you stutter, tensing up. You eye the crone, then back outside the tent. For a moment, the air thickens with anticipation, until…


Crystal takes a deep breath. "I was born in the mountains, and I left when I was young. My parents are missing, and I am considered an orphan. However, I have one piece of my family left; my hairpiece. It is a water droplet, which I was given from my grandmother before she passed. I hope to one day discover WHY she gave it to me. So there you have it. My story.”
