    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Using out of character knowledge in character. For example: you, irl, know about some kind of dangerous mushroom that looks exactly like a normal mushroom because you read the wiki. And you refuse to eat mushrooms similar to it, even though your character
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: It is doing (and demanding success in) something that your character wouldn't be able to do, usually it's displayed in the form of Power emoting, which means partially controlling other character and not giving an ability to rp back. Example: Greg smashes

This is Gann, a male halfling kid. He is 19. He was born in Dunshire, almost never leaving the village. He is extremely curious, sometimes even too curious for his own good. He loves books, maps, everything that might give him information about the world, even though he still knows little. Almost all of his life he spends reading and doing nothing in his home. He doesn’t do a lot of physical work, and so knows little about cooking, brewing, building etc. His dream is to climb the ice wall at the north of Atlas and to see what’s behind it. Not to settle in there, just to see, to draw pictures of the place behind the wall. (I am not planning for him to actually climb it) He thinks that it will take some time to prepare, but he doesn’t realize that a ton of work should be done, accustoming yourself to cold, learning how to climb etc. He thinks it’ll take much less. One time, which was his only travel, he and his family got to the cloud temple, which is the best experience he had ever had. He wore his leather jacket there, which became his “lucky jacket”. After an argument with his friends and family he packs up and leaves Dunshire. Since he is very new to this world and is very curious, he is very naive and pacifistic. He doesn’t know almost anything useful, outside of countless fairy tales that he read. People view him as a child, which he is. He wants to know everything about everything, but he’s still a halfling with their laziness. He is 2’3, has very light skin from sitting at home a lot, ginger hair, generally looks like a kid who didn’t do that much physical work, with his skin being smooth and gentle. He barely knows how to fight. Sorry if the application is bad, I‘m just not sure what exactly to write, and my character is supposed to have nothing interesting happen to him before.


Character Name: Gann

Character Age: 19
Physical Description: Pale, 2'3, ginger halfling, blue eyes. Doesn't look like a person who did a lot of physical work. Looks childish. Always wearing a leather jacket.
Roleplay Scenario: The traveller has just arrived in a small town. As they look around, their gaze is met with run down houses and shops. 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?”

((How does your character respond? Please ensure your response is at least six sentences long, and uses at least two actions.))

Example: (delete this when you add your own)

"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…
