    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Using outside information to benefit your character
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Making your character do something out of their power *Maengol stabs you, killing you*

Maengol was born into the world as a commoner, but was trained in combat from the age he could pick up a dagger. His parents grew up in the Lennox clan of the Warhawkes. He was very talented in combat, so much so that his parents decided to cut his education for his combat training, leaving him with basic education. He was able to train in all kinds of combat, but is most proficient is with Estocs, Halberds, and Roundshields. His view of magic is resultant of his education; he sees mages as power-hungry and evil. The worst kind of magic is voidal magic according to him. His parents cared about him very much, and spoiled him as much as possible. Despite this, he still grew up with a strong work and training ethic, using time he should be relaxing to train. 

All Warhawkes are taught combat from a young age

The Lennox clan in particular is not fond of magic, he was taught it by the patriarch of the clan

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…

- Why does your persona view practitioners of magic as evil? You say it is because of his education, but what is the link between that and magic?

- Perhaps explain what weapons your persona was trained the most with, as you state they were skilled with an estoc

- Add more detail in general if you can, it helps build a solid background for you persona
