    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Using information outside of your character's life and using it as guidance.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: The act of a character doing something that, realistically, they'd be unable to do.

Hailing from the Kingdom of Norland, Jacob was born willful and strong. His ancient ancestors came from Axios and discovered this whole continent, so really, it's already in his blood. He was born to fight. However, his journey has not been easy. He lost his mother when he was 5, and his father ran off one day when he was 9, never to be seen again. However, he was never taken into foster care. For the rest of his years, and as he went into adulthood, he cared for himself, living off the wild, teaching himself everything: He learned how to cook on his own, how to be a quite formidable fighter on his own, and a few other vital tools to survival-all on his own. His skills in combat would prove to be his best trained. However, it came with a price. One day, when he was 15, he was attacked by a bear. He almost lost his arm in the encounter, but he lived to tell the tale. Over all these years, the gruesome wound has healed and is now barely noticeable, however his arm now possesses a weak spot that could easily bring him down in one good swipe if his opponent ever knew about said weak spot during a combat situation. Eventually, around when he was 18, he came across the territory of the Kingdom of Norland, his first time encountering civilization in 9 years. He decided to assimilate himself and make his permanent home here. After fitting in and getting to know the culture (officially), he decided to enroll in school. Fortunately, he was also a natural intellectual, surpassing all his professors expectations. So, you could pretty much say that even though he's not a main character (for it is not allowed, of course), he is quite like the "Ultimate Killer". Smart and deadly in combat, a TRULY deadly combination. And, through all this, he kept his father's armor and sword, as well as his mother's necklace, however he keeps the sword and necklace put up for safe keeping. Now, and for the past 2 years, he has roamed the Kingdom not as a royal guard (once again, because it is not allowed, speaking in a formal tone), but just as an everyday protector of the people, a "guard of his own", if you will, using a sword he crafted himself, from the finest Iron out there. Because, after all he's been through, he has truly realized how precious life is-and he'll do whatever it takes, even if it means killing someone in defense of a complete stranger, to make sure others don't take that life away from them.


Character Name: Jacob

Physical Description: A tall, lean, intelligent-looking young man that seems truthful, brave, and courageous.
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…

Your application has been:

There is unfortunately some problems with your application. Since you are a guest account, you may not edit your application directly. I would suggest making a forum account. If you choose to apply again, you will be given a 24 hour grace period to make any edits needed to your application. 

Here's what you'll need to fix up if you decide to apply again:

 

-You will need to change your skin. Currently, you have a skin that is identical to Jhin from League of Legends.

-You may not say that it was your ancestors that discovered Atlas. There was a large event-line in Axios that led up to it's discovery. You will need to change this in your biography.

-Your character seems a little overpowered. I would suggest toning down the strength of your character; as you described them they are both an 'ultimate killer' and a 'natural intellectual.' How can your character be this skilled of a combatant if he has a physical weakness? 

-Your powergaming definition is not quite what we are looking for. Please rewrite the definition and provide an example of an emote that would be considered powergaming.

 

You may reapply in six hours. If you have any questions about your application, feel free to send me a message.
