    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: meta gaming is using outside of game information in game - usually with the hope of gaining advantages for your character
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Powergaming is trying to say that certain things happened without another person's knowledge and using that knowledge in RP. Example: While a person is offline someone steals his armor and uses it in an RP situation with another player.

Ry'lynn's adopted father was in the woods one day foraging for supper, when he found Ry'lynn under a tree in a basket with a note that read: This elfling is cursed with a lame leg. As proud hunters, we have no use for such an elfling. If you happen upon her, do as you wish. Eolin brought the child into their tree home and showed Ry'lynn to his wife, who was elated by the blessing from The Mother and The Father. Eolin and Perdwith tried their best to raise Ry'lynn like any other elfling. The fashioned a brace for her foot and leg out of sturdy branches and the finest Dwarves metal so she could learn to trap and forage from the forest floor. But more than anything, she wanted a bow in her hand. Everyday, she crawled down the steps of the treehouse, into the forest and Pray for The Mother and Father to give her the strength to stand and shoot. She would lean on branches and logs. One day she was too tired to crawl back to the house from all of her exercise and Ry'lynn fell asleep in the forest. A few hours later she heard the sound of breaches breaking. Frightened, she looked around and saw a glimpse of The Mother hiding behind a tree. "For your devotion to the woods and your strength of heart!" The Mother said and she disappeared. When Ry'lynn looked down, the brace on her lame leg and foot was shattered and she was slowly able to stand, even is a bit tilted. She stumbled home and told her parents about her encounter with The Mother. After months of practice standing and shooting, Eolin fashioned her a bow and told her, "I found you in the forest as an elfling, abandoned by your parents, the haughty hunters they claimed to be, you have become a better person than they ever hoped to be. It's time for you to go and make your way in the world and don't be afraid. Go get us one last meal  and we shall feast to your future."

 

The next day, Ry'lynn left her childhood home headed for the great city of Laureh'lin.

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…

-Your powergaming definition is incorrect. Please fix this for next time you apply.

-I assume you are referring to the Aspects when you speak of The Mother and The Father. If this is true, they have not descended from the heavens yet. Your character would not have to be able to physically see either The Mother or The Father. It is also not logical for them to randomly heal your character's leg. You may want to look into Druidism if the Aspects interest you.

-Luareh'lin has not been around for hundreds of years. I'd look into Caras Eldar, the current Elven city which is still around this map.

 

You may reapply in 3 hours.

I'd recommend joining the new player discord if you need any help: https://discord.gg/eySYjqw
