    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: It's the act of discovering things that in normal roleplay situations would never be discovered. It's knowing something that shouldn't be known given the character's limitations, like discovering things the character couldn't find out if it weren't by sources outside the roleplaying. Example: I saw a barrier guarded by an ancient rune on one of my adventures and I know exactly the message it conveys because I read it on the Wiki, so I know how to break the barrier and get the treasures it keeps.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: It is the act of performing absurd and unreal things within the game's universe. It's doing something that would be impossible to do in roleplay given the character's limitations, like becoming overpowered all of a sudden. Example: After standing next to a dragon, Linchius Beckham swings his sword, cutting off the dragon's head instantly. It's impossible to face a dragon, let alone hit kill it.

Coming from another Continent, Linchius Beckham Steelguard begins his mission in a land unknown to him, a land that a while ago no one from the place he came from knew about. To make a reconnaissance, Linchius Beckham Steelguard was ordered to come in dozens of ship groups composed of members of the great Steelguard family and due to a storm the Linchius Beckham’s ship came to sink, leaving maybe only Linchius Beckham alive. There were more than one ship, so it could be that other Steelguards was still alive. Without the guide who led the expedition and would make it possible for the group to return back because he did know the way back, Linchius Beckham Steelguard begins his journey to survive in this new land, because returning to his home was not possible. The mission had failed and Linchius Beckham was alone, but at least still alive.

 

The Steelguard family is the most powerful family on the Continent from which Linchius Beckham came. A family made up of masters of the sword, this fame came from a few swordsmen from this family who stood out, making the Steelguard name feared and respected. The biggest reason for the rise of this family was a person called Lazekan Steelguard. The Lazekan Steelguard has the strength to frighten the entire enemy Empire, being ranked in the legendary rank. After him there's his son, Lavadan Steelguard, who would have the heroic rank, just one rank below the legendary rank, and his grandson, Erun Steelguard, who would surpass both. A few years passed and several other talents emerged in this family until Linchius Beckham was born. Linchius Beckham, of course, could not be compared to the geniuses who were born before him, but Linchius Beckham would not be far behind many of his countrymen.

 

After the Steelguard family found out about the existence of a new Continent, the family's strategists requested more information about these lands. The mission entrusted to Linchius Beckham and other Steelguards was only to make a reconnaissance, trying to find the existence of other peoples and find out the dangers of these hidden lands. The mission would take an average of 6 months to be completed before they could return home. But a mission that would take months turned out to be a mission that would take years. And now the Linchius Beckham of the respectful Steelguard family would be the Linchius Beckham of an unknown family on this Continent, a nobody. His mission now would be no longer to do just reconnaissance, but to grow his family name strong and make the fear the surname Steelguard gives on the other Continent to be the same in those other lands and also looking for other survivors of that storm.

 

Linchius Beckham trained every day, only resting his body on the days he would dedicate himself to his studies, since he was 5 years old, the swordsmanship that the family's trainers taught him. And he continued training like this for a while until he entered the academy where nobles left their children to train in swordsmanship when he was 16. This was exactly what all Steelguards should do, begin training at the age of 5 and join the academy at the age of 16.

 

During several years, Linchius Beckham studied an infinite number of books, till being able to call himself an ordinary member of the honorable Steelguard family. Linchius Beckham would then have a deep theoretical knowledge and experience on swords because of the training. Unfortunately he lacked experience in wars and life-and-death battles. After all, who in their right mind would start a war or even threaten the life of a Steelguard in those lands?

 

After the shipwreck, Linchius Beckham was eventually carried by the waves to Oren. In order to understand what had happened, Linchius Beckham met some people who did not refuse to give information about the geography of Almaris and its geopolitics. After realizing that due to a shipwreck his countrymen had perished and after collecting some information with some soldiers of the Oren’s army, Linchius Beckham leaves the place in order to collect information in other places that would serve to complete the mission given to him. So Linchius Beckham walks aimlessly and arrives at Haense, where luckily Clearon Steelguard was. After some greetings, the both Steelguards talked about their plans in Almaris and about the other Steelguards that were gathering after the shipwreck. Now another one of the many shipwrecked Steelguards were gathered in Almaris in search of other Steelguards in order to survive together in this unknown land.
