Work on your grammar, punctuation and presentation (colour, bolding, etc.)

Roleplaying may be about using your character's knowledge, but it is not about winning.

Explain a little more about metagaming and powergaming, and mention powergaming where players make their character's too powerful by giving them OP powers.

Your biography only explains the death of your character's parents and his fighting skills. Expand it to include his age and developing personality throughout his childhood.

Rationalise what your character does better. Children don't just break out of school for no particular reason.

Consider that while a 14 year old elf would not survive alone in the wilderness. This would apply even if he matured at the same rate as a human, but elves are slightly slower (puberty at about 20). Even if he was physically mature, he would be mentally very inexperienced.

Aegis and Asulon are the only continents in existance, and Aegis has been destroyed. You can't just come from outside. If there were other lands and it was so easy to come here, we would have discovered them.

Your first open reponse question needs a lot more information, including details of combat and more dialogue than just a couple of snippets.

Your second open reponse question needs a lot more detail and actions as well as dialogue.

The screenshot of your skin is far too small to be visible.
