Definitions
This is simply so that we can get an understanding of how much you know bout roleplaying. Feel free to Google the answers, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not another website / person's!
What is roleplaying?: - Roleplaying is changing yourself to become a different character, for example acting out a egyptian movie scene, you have to think and act like you are an egyptian, but in this server if you are a dwarf, you have to think about what a normal dwarf would say, for example if someone offered you lettuce and you like lettuce in real life, in the game dwarfs wouldn't like it as they like to eat a lot of food! Often meat I suppose.
What’s metagaming?: - Meta gaming is basically saying stuff that your RP character wouldn't know and things like that.
What’s powergaming?: - I have had quite a few problems with this one, however I think I figured it out. I think powergaming is where people usually do roleplay things which may be impossible to do, leaving the other player no chance to fight back, for example. Person 1: Get in my car and lets go to my crib ill give you some cash. Person 2: Ok ill come in with you in one condition. Person 1: No get in! Person 1: Grabs person 2 and throws him into the car. Person 1: Ties person 2.
The powergaming in this is that the person 2 has no chance to do anything about him being tied up, but in real life I bet you would make it hard for the kidnapper to do something like that.

Give us a brief description of their life - their story, childhood, family (Include server lore when writing): - He was only five years old when his father joined the army. He was born in Kal'Azgath. His father fought many battles including the battle of the Storm's Crossing. His father used to tell him stories about the war and encouraged him to learn to fight at his young stages and skip school, but Gordan refused to. His father was ashamed of him and beat him until he changed his mind, however he was not the only one to get hurt, but his mother was abused too. She thought women and men had the rights to do whatever they want and the father insisted she would stay home look after the only child because he can earn money himself, but he barely earns anything, therefore she decided to find a job, furthermore she was denied by everyone in town and when her husband found out that she wasted all this time he was furious. The little boy didn't see anything but could hear it louder than ever. In fact, the whole village could hear them and anyone who questioned the father about what happened he would reply: “She had nightmares”
Four years later after all the abuse and denial of rights from the father, Gordan was nine years old and was through his second year at a military school for children. It wasn’t a safe place to be as he fought twelve to sixteen year olds there and he was only 9, therefore they could overpower him. When the boy failed the tests, his father heard the news and immediately grabbed Gordan and punched him in the stomach, breaking one of his ribs. The mother after seeing what happened, grabbed a knife and ran towards him, attempting to stab him, however he dodged the attack and grabbed the knife, which he jabbed into her neck with only a few words coming out of her mouth: “run…”
The boy could barely hear but he ran out on to the streets and screamed for help and a few neighbors ran out running to the boy, he was holding his chest and stomach with his hands trying to catch a breath, but he couldn’t. The boy was losing air and he fell to the floor and had his eyes open. His father ran out onto the street shouting for everyone to get away! “This is my son! Touch him and I will kill you!” he shouted as he pulled out a sword, but behind him came a few guards and grabbed him, he put on a fight and stabbed one and brutally injured the other and then he got captured as his sword snapped in half, it was Gordan's sword, not his. He shouted to him: “I will hunt you down boy and kill you!” Immediately after him saying that the guard kicked his knees and made him get on the floor, which afterwards he kicked the back of them, breaking his legs and dragging him to the cellar, “Without bones you won’t hunt him down” he said. “Come with us boy, this way” The boy followed them and arrived at a very big looking house compared to his cottage, it was like a mansion!
He was really excited but sad at the same time, maybe his father treated him wrong, but the boy believed that everyone should get a second chance, although him killing his mother, the boy decided to not forgive him as it was not his first second chance. He then said to the guards: “Why did you do that to my dad?” said the boy in a sad face. “He wasn’t your father, your father was killed in battle and he was your father’s friend. He was supposed to take care of you. He died before your birth and told me to give you this…” The guard handed over a full set of diamond armour with a gem inscribed into the middle of it. There was some sort of soul stone inside of it, like his real father’s soul was inside. The boy was so confused and happy and sad and didn’t know what was going on at the same time, he almost forgot about what state he is in. His stomach caused a huge pain and he fainted.
Two weeks later he woke up and he was in some sort of “posh” hospital place, there were pure white walls and columns like in heaven. One of the guards, who saved him, walked up to him and said: “I will take care of you and teach you to hunt, read and write. All in your own time” Gordan was very happy and thought that he can finally learn to read and write!
Ten years later, it was his nineteenth birthday, where he got a certificate for ending his education! He passed everything, but was still not that great and combat, but he was great at hunting, what was the deal? Why does he have different skills? Everyone asked themselves. Gordan was great at creating strategic traps and using camouflage to hunt, but in battle that wouldn’t work. After Thorin, the guard who saved him, found out, he asked Gordan if he wants to learn to fight and he replied: “I would but only with you, no one else” He accepted almost immediately and that is when his battle training began. From that point on Gordan joined the military and created battle plans and designed their weapons on large scrolls and his work was well rewarded. One day Gordan decided to leave the village and live his own life in the wild. Build his own ranch, have a farm and a few hunting dogs! That was his dream, but will he go back to living In the village or stay out in the wild? It is all up to me…
