    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Metagaming is the act of roleplaying with information gained OOC, our out of character/roleplay. This is strictly prohibited and considered cheating, especially if it is discussed in private or to "bail you out" of trouble. Such as; "[Name] snuck up to th
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Powergaming is the act of forcing something, usually in combat, upon another person's character, such as beheading them without reason. An example would be this: "[Name] swung their sword, effectively beheading [Other]. 'No take backs, no dodge!! xD''". [

A young Cassea Diartis grew up with the steadfast knowledge of several things. The first; she was of the seed of the Aureon, and she would most likely grow up to be part of the woodland community, helping to grow the trees what would prove fruitful in both literal and more figurative ways for the populous she would one day grow up to serve. The second; she was the spawn of a mischievous rogue High Elf who, in his rebellion, fled to the predominantly Wood Elven city of Linandria, and lead a flighty romance with her mother, a down to "Earth" and intelligent figure hoping for something exciting to save her from an average existence. Thus, through their short lived relationship, Cassea was born with her mother still at a relatively young age. As a young child, Cassea was known as a very mischievous and trouble-making child, always excitable and very rarely behaved, although she proved to be intelligent multiple times with her tricks, often fooling some of the more knowledgeable adults. Her mother did not encourage this behavior, but as it reminded her of her wayward lover, let it continue. Cassea carried this behavior with her into her late teen and adolescence, and became known as one of the more peculiar citizens. She had boundless curiosity and pursued many passions, such as music, woodcarving, literature, and swordplay, rather becoming a jack of all trades than devote all of her attention to one subject and trade like many chose to do.Her external appearance did nothing to help that, as she sported brighter red hair than average and pale, freckled skin from her High Elven blood. Often she was teased by some of the more immature children, and this lead to a further need to mask insecurity with humor, leading to her inquisitive, bright, and smug personality she sports now. As she continued to grow, however, she decided she wanted more than life in the village. Bearing fresh tattoos of her seed, she decided she wished to adventure out into a greater world, towards more places of magic and intrigue that Linandria could not offer her. She set off on her quest, and is currently traveling throughout the region, attempting to find a teacher of magic apart from the Druidic Order, whose rules she finds far to strict for her own persona.


Character Name: Cassea Diartis
Character Race: Wood Elf
Character Gender: Female
Character Age: 51
Physical Description: Slender and tall, athletic. Sharp features, pale, freckled, with bright red, long waved hair. Hickory eyes, light tattooing from wrist to shoulder.
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?”

"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…

It hurts my heart to deny this application, as nearly everything was perfect! Before I go into detail on what must be changed, I will suggest registering an account with our website. That way, you can edit your posts and such. Just in case there is an issue with your updated application. Anyway! Off to the races:

  • The only issue with the application was your character's inclusion into the Aureon seed. In wood elf culture, Seeds are very important and usually require trialing to get into, if not born into. As a new player, you cannot create a character and just join the Seed that way. I would suggest with your next app, either drop that entirely or put you are aiming to enter the seed, through the trials.

If you require any help, don't be afraid to PM me on the forums or @ me in the status updates section or on my profile directly. Also, below will be a link to the LotC New Player Discord, where a dedicated community of notable players are around and willing to aid you in anyway. You must wait three hours before applying again. Good luck, friend!
