    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: I find in my roleplay experience that people who powergame in roleplay tend to just have a main character syndrome and what the story to get in the way that they dictate. I think avoiding powergaming starts with understand that your character is just one aspect of the overarching story and that its best you play an element. That means letting your character have flaws and weaknesses and generalyl failing at certain things.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming disrupts fair roleplay because it removes an aspect of realism and storytelling. There are aspects of roleplay and storytelling that require hidden maneuvers that make things interesting. For example, if I was a staging a slave revolt in secret. It would be pretty lame if the people I was revolting against in roleplay found out in a Discord group chat or something. It removes the fun in the way the story could have played out.

Roleplay Scenario:

You’ve just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As you look around, your gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. You 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?))


*Hesitantly Harlow down, her hands never leaving her side and her eyes never leaving the old woman. She hated making small talk with people, especially on days when she knew she was on a time constraint. On days when she had places to be and things to get done before the sunset in the evening. Still, Harlow's father had taught her to never disrespect her elders.*

"Morning..."*Harlow cleared her throat. She hadn't spoken in a while* "I'm Harlow Citrus. I'm from a village just North of here, as you may know. I uh...I work for my Father in his shop. I have since I was young. I've done not much else with my life. I don't crave to do much else. Uh..." *She nervously rubbed her knees, looking around the room. She had nothing more to say. She sucked at describing herself and her life.* "I want to take over his business when he dies so....I need to focus."

*Harlow awkwardly sighed. She needed more comfortable territory.*"I hear you've been looking for new furniture for this...home...you have here. We predominantly focus on blacksmithing work, but we definitely can handle your furniture needs. Would you like to talk price?"

Hi there! As you can see, your app is almost ready! Just a few changes you need to make, but don’t worry - you are doing great!

 

 

Your roleplay sample must use the third person format! Instead of saying "I haven't spoken in a while" Try using "She hadn't spoken in a while" Or "Harlow hadn't spoken in a while".

 

You’ll be given 48 hours to correct the changes above. Once you are done correcting, please contact me!

My discord is ragnarakajavvy! If you don’t have discord, please message me on the forums @Javert!

If you need to contact me, or need help,  you can join the LotC Discord here: https://discord.gg/lotc

I recommend going to the New player’s category, going to help chat. Pinging @Community team saying “I’m new and would like some help with my application. I got put on pending!” If I or another team member can not be reached.

If you still need help, make sure to check the wiki! https://wiki.lordofthecraft.net/index.php?title=Main_Page
