    In your own words, what is powergaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: By rephrasing my actions in roleplay as a suggestion or an 'attempt' rather than forcing it.
    In your own words, what is metagaming, and why should it be avoided in roleplay?: It can undermine the roleplay experience for everyone involved. Taking information learned OOC and using that in roleplay gives an unfair advantage, it's unrealistic, and it can ruin the natural progression of character building and lore.
    Status: Denied
Character Name: Lyris Voss
Character Race: Human
Character Gender: Female
Character Age: 24
Physical Description: Lyris is slight in frame, fair-skinned, with dark hair that falls loose around her face. Her features are soft, quietly pretty, & her eyes ocean blue.
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?))

Example:

The dark-haired woman looked around the tent, her curious gaze landing on the elder before her. "You've been expecting me?" Her brow arched up in surprise as she glanced down at the cushion, then back up at the old lady. "I think you are mistaken, ma'am. I'm just passing through."

Hi there! Your application has been put on pending as there are changes that need to be made before you can be accepted. See below. 

 

  • It looks good so far! As much as I enjoyed your character not wanting to engage with the stranger- for the sake of us being able to see what it is your starting character would be like, I'd ask you try to engage the crone and entertain her. Though this does not mean you have to stick to such a story when you join.

 

  • Try to expand your definition of powergame, think a bit more about your own qualities too: my hint would be, sure you may attempt to swing your sword on the goblin, but if you're a child using buster's sword something feels off- could you explain that?



 

You have 48 hours to make these changes otherwise I will unfortunately have to deny your application. When you have finished please message me on the forums or contact me on Discord @itsjustmemorgan to let me know so I can review it!
