    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: Try to set restrictions for your own character, such as making them show some sort of weakness or not strong enough in some way, basically make your character weaker sometimes to make you seem like you are still just another person and make your character seem more interesting.

    an example would be maybe my character sees a large boulder blocking the road, instead of just saying "I clear the boulder, with my big ol' strong muscles!" having my character instead be unable to and insist on doing it by himself and being stubborn and rude about it would be much better for both storytelling wise and rp wise, but also it would make your character feel more like a normal person instead of someone who could be strong enough to take on and move a whole mountain. I feel it's best to keep your character grounded as often as you can in order to keep yourself in that mindset.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: It can completely ruin others and your own story / experience, by knowing things you should not you could for example ruin a secret or interesting reveal for another character making them feel like the rp they have been setting up may have been ruined because you used unfair knowledge.

Character Name: Obel Sparkglare
Character Race: Dwarf
Character Gender: Male
Character Age: 34
Physical Description: 4 Foot 8 Inches dark Dwarf with dark grey skin and weighing about 224 pounds, long burnt orange hair that goes to his shoulders and bright orange eyes
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.”
 

Obel walks into the tent grumbling something either along the lines of "...Rubbish" or some other sort of rude comment as he walks in, he drags mud and filth on his boots and clothes not seemingly noticing or caring much other than wiping his boots on a nice rug. He looks around at the mystical and dimly lit tent and snorts a bit and then turns his gaze to the cushion and then looking back to the old woman.

 

"Aye?!, ye were " expectin' " me, were ya? well most people I know who would be expectin' me 'ere would either have bought me somethin' ta drink or would've tried ta put an ax in me head!" He lets out a heartly laugh then looks at her sternly.

 

"let's hope yer not tha second option aye? fer yer sake..." he stares at her not taking a sit but merely standing and watching... and watching... until he smiles

 

"Ha! most people would get tha wobbles, yer a tough one aint ya?!" he says letting another hearty laugh.

 

"Well, if ye were expectin' me ye SHOULD know the name...But I aint a rude fella!, Tha names Obel Sparkglare tis a family name! on account of..." he points to his bright orange eyes

 

"But well my story? well i just spent a good few days walkin in mud, water and beast shit so ive tha story is not tha greatest one i could tell!" He tries to sound confident and and make it out like a jest though he seems to be trying to avoid the question of his "story".
