In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:

Metagaming is a broad term usually used to define any strategy, action or method used in a game which transcends a prescribed ruleset, uses external factors to affect the game, or goes beyond the supposed limits or environment set by the game. Another definition refers to the game universe outside of the game itself.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is:Power-Gaming is a style of interacting with games or game-like systems with the aim of maximising progress towards a specific goal, to the exclusion of other considerations such as ) storytelling, atmosphere and camaraderie. Due to its focus on the letter of the rules over the spirit of the rules, it is often seen as unsporting, un-fun, or unsociable. This behaviour is most often found in games with a wide range of game features, lengthy campaigns or prize tournaments such as role-playing, massively multiplayer or collectible games.

Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): I am a teenage magician from the town of Ravenstone. I lived there for 12 years, my Father was a powerful magician who was fighting in the war. But 2 years ago, when me and my father were out hunting deer we were attacked from above. I didn't see what it was until I heard it. I knew, it was a dragon. knowing of the danger we were in we ran home for safety. When we reached home, the whole town way an fire! Suddenly we saw it, the dragon, but. when I finally accepted my fate, my Father pushed me back and told me "Take this, its my ring it will protect you. Now run, Run, as far as you can and don't worry I'll be fine!" knowing of the power that he was capable of I turned and ran. After 2 or 3 hours of running I came across a camp. when I got there I told the people of what happened, but then they told me to "Run, as far as you can, just to give you a head start" he looked at me with a menacing smile whilst stroking his dog. I preferred what the man looked like than what the dog looked like. this thing was staring at me with fire in his eyes and baring his sharp blade like teeth. Seeing the dog, I ran. After 10 minuets of being chased by the dog I was on the floor with this dog above me, and with its paw, it clawed at my face. After that I heard my father say "Son, I gave that ring to protect you, use the ring, Aracta Sactico!" And like that I jumped back up to my feet and pointed the ring at it and shouted "Aracta Sactico!" Suddenly a blue disk like flash came out of the ring and blew that dog away. then I knew, I were to become a powerful like my father. Now, 2 years later I now live with my Grandfather. But I know that one day I will slay the dragon that killed my father.

Open-Response-Questions

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond? I cast a spell of temporary blindness upon the two warriors and push them of the Temple.

Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response? He would say "Yes there is, do you sell food?" or "Yes there is, do you sell potions or enchanted equipment?" if the merchant replies with no. Then he would bid him good bye and he would leave that stall to find one that did.

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:He would look around for any traps, If any he would walk away but. If none he would take a few of the iron leaving some left for whoever lives there if any.

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you in the common tongue, how do you respond? He would approach with caution and ask for food, if they don’t want to help he would ask "Why would you help a fellow adventurer in his time of need?" if they give a reasonable answer like “we don’t have any too" I would try and help them find food but. If they attack I would run into a nearby forest and hide when they are split up he would attack or kill them one by one.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information? He would agree to help only on one the condition that they help, if not he would ask for some armour to help protect him.
