    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Power gaming can be avoided in roleplay by focusing on the development of a character with a clear backstory and an understanding of the current context of the situation. This focus on character development reduces the desire to engage in power gaming. Powergaming can also be avoided by limiting a character's abilities; having character flaws can positively benefit an individual in roleplay, as it can provide a focus for discussion.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming can disrupt roleplay by introducing knowledge that a character should have an understanding/knowlege of. This undermines the narrative of a story/event. When players participate in metagaming, it can create an unbalance, causing individuals to act out of character, contradicting their established personalities.

Roleplay Scenario:

Backstory:

Anton Klefsky is an aspiring philosopher seeking to understand the complexities of society within Aevos. He developed this passion during his childhood in the city, where he would watch humans from across the realm visit the centre of education. Anton cultivated a desire to enter the world of academia through using his parents' library, where he spent almost every second of the day, neglecting his relationships with others. This neglect led to him facing constant insecurity when talking to others, especially those he admired. At the age of 17, he started working as a mercenary in an attempt to fund his studies. However, he was fired for failing to maintain proper etiquette on the job. He returned to his parents' home, where he decided to begin working on his thesis. Anton ultimately chose to leave his city in an attempt to gain further inspiration, seeking input from individuals across the realm.  
 

"Very well," Anton swiftly moved to sit on the cushioned seat, staring directly into the eyes of the hag. "First, let's have a cup of tea!" He states. As the hag walks towards the rusted kitchen, Anton swiftly retrieves his quill and parchment from his bag. As he waits, his eyes begin to dart across the room, appearing to be lost in thought. He is visibly sweating. The hag soon comes back into the room with a dim brown cup. Anton asks the question that brought him to the village in the first place, "So, tell me your story." The crone's eyes now stare directly into his soul. She responds, "Where do I begin?"

Hiya! Consider yourself accepted onto the server! Well done for completing your application, and one great big welcome to Lord of the Craft!
 

You know what, the role reversal like that is not something I had seen before: It seems you're not new to the roleplay universe so I'll be letting you in. My one key note, is that you won't be a noble of any type- I noticed the mention of it in your description. Your family may have been wealthy or well off, but players cannot begin as part of a noble house unless they specifically have been invited by those on LotC in such houses.
