In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are.
Meta gaming:
Short said: Using Out-of-character info in your character.
Example: You say Hello to someone that you met on Teamspeak. "Hail <name>!" but you have actually never met him In-character. There are many ways in which you can Meta, that is also why you should be alert of Meta gaming all the time!

I thought it was something like; Forcing other players to follow your actions: "Cuts his throat!" instead of that you should rather say: "With his knife he attempts to cut his throat!" (Or something looking like that)

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):
"Garles.." my mom whispered when she holded me for the first time, my dad was standing next to her with a big smile on her face. He was proud, you could see. I had dark brown hard hair, the forge and mining ruined my hair,
I grew up in the city of Urguan, as I was only seven when I had to leave already, because my dad was a Merchant, he had to merchandise throughout whole of Aegis. For that reason I didn't really see him much. Years passed and I only saw my dad once a year, or even less,
for that reason I forgot about him, I found my real self partly because my mum went with me to Al'Khazar; when I was only 26 years my mum and I were walking towards Al'Khazar for my first real look at the city, there where crowds of people standing around the city, I wondered what was going on, when we came closer I saw that people where fighting, someone jumped out of the bushes, an Orc, I thought as I saw a green shade from the corners of my eyes. "Mommy!" I screamed! But my mum was already gone.. She disappeared into the woods. "Wher.. Where did she go?" I mumbled to myself half crying.
I was still laying on the road just in front of the entrance to Al'Khazar, some other Human came towards me, picked me up and ran with me away from the fight into a road side shop. "Little dwarf, its alright." He gave me his sword "Can you repair this for me? I cannot fight without this being repaired.." I took the sword, I walked to the anvil standing inside the shop.. "Can I do this" I was thinking, I picked up the hammer laying next to the anvil, it was still hot, I smashed with it on the sword, and kept it in the fire a little, not long after that moment it was done.. Shiny as it was new, it looked "Well done, kid" The man said "Wait here and you'll be safe"
As he went away into battle again, I waited in the shop, for hours, but then a woman came into the shop "Anyone here?!" she shouted scared but softly. "Mum?!" I shouted "I found you!" That Human made me realize that I love my real self, as much as I love the Forge!
Your characters ambitions:
Become one of the most respected forgers, being prosperous is not required, I do not mind being poor, as long as I can fill my joy with repairing or making tools.
