    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: You should always remember that your character is just one person and a human, so isn't able to perform unrealistic, unfair, or godly actions. At the end of the day your character is one of a million and so it would be unfair to act as if the character is better than everyone ever. Although your character could maybe do stuff - like casting fireball - that you couldn't do, you have to look at the capabilities of your character when you play and react accordingly to the world around you.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming disrupts fair roleplay the same way that if loot crates are sold on the server to VIP members would give those members an unfair advantage. If they can buy better items or buy better anything that affects roleplay then they are literally using something outside of LOTC - their IRL bank account - and using it for in server benefit. Similarly, in the same way, metagaming is using only information you have from outside LOTC and using it for a benefit in game.

Character Name: Insbil Baggebo
Character Race: Halfling
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 50
Physical Description: A very short halfling with body hair all across his body, with long wispy grey hair and a long grey beard reaching down to his waist wearing worn robe
Roleplay Scenario:

Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They 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?))


"Hoohoohoo, hehehe" the halfling chuckles and prances around. Still not responding the halfling keeps prancing around and goes "Hoohoohoo, hehehe" again, "Who be expecting Insbil Baggebo, hoohoo?" he asks finally responding. He brings out a wrinkled pale hand and begins to twirl and stroke his beard in deep philosophical thought, "Infamy! Hohoho!" he says to himself. He continues with his bouncing circuit seemingly not elaborating and only giving the occasional "Hah!" to the befuddled witch! Even as he speaks he still prances around but as time goes on a pattern becomes more clear, he is prancing around in a circle, or a circular pattern, around the tent, going "Hoohoohoo, heeheehee! I am famed!" he says "If you be expecting me, then Insbil's story you already know!". "Hoohoo, heehee!" he says again before prancing out the tent. Outside the tent just out of view of the witch, the hobbit continues on his trip of whimsy with his hands wringing imaginary water from his marvelous splendiferous beard. With no one as his audience Insbil finally answers the old hag's question of his story, "Know my name, I am Insbil Baggebo, Five Hundred Sixty Eighth reincarnation of Knox, Lord of all Weefolk and Smallfooted! I will come steal your pumpkins, hohohoooo, heeheeehee!! Thirty years I have wandered and I will wander thirty more until the day comes where I put my pumpkin on! Hoooohoooo heeeheee!"
