    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming is using out-of-character info that your character would not or does not know in a roleplay situation. For example, I cannot dig up a buried treasure if my character would not have a way to know its location, even if I know where it is OOC.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: forcing actions upon someone elses character, such as saying "Grimnir hits Faerên in the left leg with his axe, permanently maiming him."

In the year 1651, Faeren Nalethendil was born in the city of Okarn’thilln to a family of middle class merchants, who now live in Fi’hallen after the loss of Okarn’thilln. Faeren’s father Varil owned three modest seagoing vessels, and raised his son with the intention of him one day succeeding him as head of the company. However, while young Faeren was enticed by the freedom seafaring offered, he had no love for business or trade. He longed to study the arts of magic, to learn everything he could about the strange secrets of the mystic world. He was always curious, and studied anything he could get his hands on. Faeren had always possessed a sharp intellect, even by Elven standards, and harbored a deep, curious wanderlust. He knew he could not spend his life on such tediums as trade negotiations and business matters.

This greatly displeased his father, but much to his surprise was met with support from his mother Elenil, who assured him that in time his father might come to accept his choice as well.

They duck into one of the shacks, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the small room, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town?" 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?”
