What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.:

To me role-playing is abandoning one's self in order to take up the character that they created in its entirety.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are.

Metagaming is drawing upon outside experience or knowledge of the current game in order to further one's self. It would be out of character knowledge rather than what the adopted persona would actually know by his or her self.

Powergaming in the Role playing sense is not playing fairly when coming into a conflict by not letting the other player have freedom to react to certain things. The player in fault will usually put their actions forth in a way that makes them certain to win and unjust in general.

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):

With hair the color of grain and eyes of the sea, Aethasis grew up in a humble abode, outside of most contact with other elves other than the small amount that made up the small village that dwelt in the forest. They lived nomadically, gathering what they needed from their surroundings and taking up the trees for defense. This simple life was not what Aethasis could deal with all his days. There were no troubles, no conflicts, and no problems. It was almost perfect. Unlike the others he was not as perfect. He was moved to anger more quickly than others and he wanted to be known. While the others played tag, he practiced with targets. They learned to sing but he learned to swim! It was not enough for him to simply be different, he needed to find people who were similar. He needed to know that there are elves out there like him, in similar ambitions and goals. Those who wanted to fight for the sake of protecting even without immediate dangers. By the time he hit 16, he had become well versed in the bow, dabbled in the fields of sword combat, and gained a knowledge of simple farming, so he set out to make a name for himself. To be a hero! To stand out from the rest, he dons a coat of red and red shoes with yellow stripes.

Your characters ambitions:

To defend and assist those who deserve it.

Out in the Wilds, your character comes across a small cottage. Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two bandits. What does your character do?

Aethasis catches a glimpse of the struggle from out of the trees. Knowing there is little time to act, he draws his bow and takes aim. He sees one of the bandits drawing a dagger to stab the elf and he releases a flurry of arrows at their vicinity. Having not fully mastered the bow yet, none of the arrows seem to hit their target but just about everything else. He was not close enough. Aethasis curses under his breath and taunts the bandits who in turn, drop their aggression against the elf and rush to attack. Aethasis rushes from the brush to meet them in combat. Swaying with the rhythm of a dancer he dodges most of their attacks and trades off several blows. He gets tripped and disarmed leaving his sword yards away from him. One of the bandits slashes his coat as he dodges a finishing blow and unleashes his fury. "NOBODY TOUCHES THE COAT!" he bellows, and pulls a dagger tied to his leg beneath his leg, slashing one of the bandits from the knave to the chops. The other flees in terror as his friend suffers a fatal blow to the neck.

Aethasis takes down the surviving bandit with an arrow to the back of the knee. Before continuing, he remembers the hurt elf and goes back to tend to his wounds while the surviving bandit gets away.

Your character walks up to a shop in a quiet market. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer?

He asks for some cloth to repair his coat without any mention of his uneventful past.
