What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: This is an alternate account of Brunhyldir, who has 2 accounts already accepted. Roleplaying is taking and doing the actions of someone else, and completely acting like the world of Aegis is the only world.
In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. Metagaming is using OOC information IC. For example, if I heard someone say in OOC chat: "Bob is in Oren and he is wanted by the King!" , I couldn't start running to Oren to kill Bob. My character doesn't know that he's there.
Powergaming is when you suddenly give your character a trait or power that is unheard of or stupid. Like, "I am Iblees, so I can just kill you." , or "I have a magical spell that makes me invincible".

History:
Childhood:
Pelegrino Mascolo was born from his father, Alegrani Mascolo, and his mother, Menacinni Baltrano. HIs early childhood life was spent contently as an only child, playing with dolls and sets based off of famous notables: Petyr Brandybuck, the famous Druid; Availer, the mystical Wandering Wizard; and the dark evil Tyrion of the Undead just to name a few of his favorites.
His father was a local shopkeeper, and kept the entire town in order with his wide variety of goods. Because of this, Pelegrino lived in a very expensive home, and his mother did not have to work.
Pelegrino was home-schooled by his mother and father, and he became particularly interested when they reached the astounding subjects of literature and science. Books -- records of ancient fairy tales and baffling history -- fascinated him, and he learned to love how redstone wiring and animal structure worked.
Even at such a young age, Pelegrino began to write short stories of mystical monsters and heroes, and his grammar and sentence structure were surprisingly superb.
Teenage Years:
As Pelegrino hit the age of 15, Alegrani, his father, became extremely ill, and could not leave his bed. Pelegrino was left to run the bustling trade shop that his father had spent years maintaining and keeping in the prime of shape.
Mennacinni had to stay at home to tend to his father, so Pelegrino had to run the shop himself, unable to recieve much advice from his sick father.
Using his great math skills, however, he was able to keep the store up and running, of course after the voluntary help of some neighbors and townspeople.
However, being home-schooled, he had no social skills. Although he could keep the shop in ship shape (and perhaps in even better condition than his father had kept it), none of the townspeople liked him at all. They found him cold, harsh and just unfriendly. But he sure had a nice shop.
After a year, Alegrani passed. Many in the town mourned his death, but most of the talk was now about Pelegrino and his mother. Were they going to maintain the shop or sell it? After all, Pelegrinos "ownership" of it was only declared temporary.
Finally, after a long discussion with the townsfolk and his mother, Pelegrino decided to sell the shop. That was never his dream anyways. His mother and him had just enough money to lay around for as long as they needed, so Mennacinni urged him to finally follow his own path.
Early Adulthood:
Now 18, Pelegrino had long known what he wanted to do for the world when he was old enough. He was always mystified by those figures he played with and books he read as a child, and the history of the land he lived in. Science and technology amazed him, especially new ideas that he was extremely eager to figure out.
Pelegrino spent the next two years in hard study of philosophy, science, literature, and history. He studied the science of animals, took notes on the progression of the Druids magic, and the trade styles of Orcs... it all amazed him.
After realizing he needed to spread his ideas and seek more knowledge from places he hadn't even been to, he finally waved goodbye to his mother and his town and left for a trek across Aegis, in search of enlightenment (not the religious kind, the knowledge kind).
He came upon so many ideas on how to run things differently and more efficiently. He calculated crimes faster than some of the detectives that had been assigned to the case. Seemingly to him, everything could be achieved through research, note-taking, and writing.
However, Pelegrino was wrong. There was one single thing that could not be learned from a book, or researched to extent: peoples skills. Pelegrino was still terrible around others. Things that they didn't understand were almost mocking to him. The religions that they believed in were just lies to give false hope; the "tactics" that were shown by the colleagues around him insulted him.
Therefore, Pelegrino decided to stay away from society as much as he could. He could only trust himself, his books, and his research.
Now, Pelegrino wanders Aegis, studying things that most would find boring, but in the process creating things that could change the fate of Aegis forever. Some of his ideas include a wired propeller that could send TnT flying, or multiply colored flares that could be thrown in the sky.
Your characters ambitions: To make Aegis more efficient, invent things, and become one of the best philosphers and writers to be known in the land.
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? Pelegrino is not good with people, and would easily lose in a fight among armed bandits. He quickly hides behind something, however, and takes notes on their fighting styles from afar.
Your character walks up to a shop in the middle of Al'Khazar. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer? "Hello, sir. Do you have any redstone or gunpowder?"
A screenshot of your skin: I took a skin off of LoTC that some of you may find familiar. But he I find that he looks good as a representation for my character.
Other Information: SpartanA116 is already accepted into the server, but I killed him off in a massive RP battle long ago. I am just now creating a new character now, though. SpartanA116 has been dead for a while, and I finally came up with a good idea for a character.
Only reason I posted this is to get my new character accepted and my character card reset.
