    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Powergaming is when you make your character automatically succeed at things without giving others a chance to react, or when you give your character abilities that are beyond realistic for them. For example, instead of writing 'Aelrion swiftly disarmed the guard,' you'd write 'Aelrion attempted to grab the guard's wrist and twist the sword free'.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming is using info your character wouldn't actually know, like stuff from Discord or OOC chat, to your advantage in roleplay. Your character should only know what they learned in-character.

Aelrion grew up near a small settlement on the outskirts of Aelwen, far deep enough in the woods that most outsiders never passed through it. His mother was of High Elven descent, which shows in his lighter complexion and violet eyes. His father was a wood-elf scout who was gone often. Growing up, it was mostly just him and his younger sister, and she fit in with society a lot better than he did. He spent most of his early years just wandering the forest on his own. After enough decades of the same thing, he started noticing the travelers coming through the roads more, and it got harder to ignore that there was a lot of world he hadn't even seen yet. Eventually he just left, just grabbed his things and started walking with no aim. 

Character Name: Aelrion Sylvaeth
Character Race: High Elf
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 96
Physical Description: Aelrion is a tall, slender elf with pale skin, short silver-blond hair, calm violet eyes, and simple travel robes worn from years on the road.
Roleplay Scenario:

Aelrion pulls out the chair and sits down, resting his arms on his knees.

 

"I was from Aelwen, originally. Though I haven't been back in a while." He glances around the room for a second then looks back at her. "Been traveling long enough that it's hard to give a straight answer to that."

 

He shifts in the chair a little.

 

"As for what I want to make of myself, I'm not really sure yet. I left home looking for something, I just don't know what that is." He meets her eyes. "But I figure I'll know it when I find it."

Hello there! At this time your application has been placed on,

For reasons such as:

 

 

  • Please review our Wiki’s definition of Powergaming. Your response is not quite right. You got most of it, but there's more to powergaming than not giving others a chance to react. Think about the capabilities of your characters specifically, in terms of realistic actions. Ensure to include an example in your response. If you're having a hard time writing something down/or don’t know how else to word it, contact a community member. If you need help, please feel free to reach out.
  • In your Roleplay Response & Backstory, please use an unnamed location or a location already on the server, you can find more information on the Nations & Settlement WIKI Page. Please use one piece of recent LOTC Lore/a real LOTC location.
  • Your Physical Description doesn’t match the race you picked! Wood Elves do not have light-skin typically and cannot have purple eyes, I would recommend switching to a High Elf or denoting mixed heritage as both those traits are associated with that race. Please refer to the Racial Hub WIKI page for more information.
