Definitions Feel free to Google the answers or browse our forums, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not those of another website or person!
What is roleplaying?: To use a rather childish analogy, when you play a game of pretend, but you're over the age of 11 so you think calling it pretend is too childish. Does that work? If not, RP's in when you act as an OC that you created, along with other people. For this you change names, identity, everything. And mo often than not this is set inside a fandom.
What is metagaming?: To be simplistic, when you go against the set rules and agreements that have been placed down in an RP. Also when you bring in outside factors, such as hacking or knowledge you know but your character doesn't like.
What is powergaming?: When you act like a power hungry tyrant and you grant yourself too much power and act like a god. In no way is this fun for those around you, so no one is supposed to do it. By powergaming you're often metagaming too.

Biography (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add server lore, and events that happened to your character so that they don’t contradict history.):
The youngest of 3(somehow!) Artemisia was born in the realm of Anthera in 1486, in the Silver Enclave of Haelun'or to a nice family. Not the highest ranking family, but certainly not middle class.
As a young child Artemisia was constantly struggling to find her own identity. Because when you're the youngest of 3 it's hard to tell what's yours and what's your siblings. Even when it comes to your likes and personality.
She had a rather exciting start of life, being young when the Elven-Human wars started Artemisia was not allowed to fight for her brethren, but she often ran to go meet the injured soliders, or often asked those who'd returned form the battlefield to tell her stories. Much to her mother and fathers dismay. However, her father eventually found himself fighting for his kin, and then found himself killed in the midst of the war, leaving Artemisia, her mom, and her three siblings to now rely only on her mother. When martial law was erected Artemisia got pissed, before martial law she'd been allowed many more freedoms, however after it was erected Artemisia found herself even more restricted than before. When they got rid of martial law though, Artemisia rejoiced, even buying some alcohol off some dwarves and drinking with a group of friend to celebrate their freedom once again.
As a child she often gave her parents headaches with her refusal to act like any other High Elf. Examples being that she'd sneak out to try and go see the other kingdoms, try to pull pranks on others, or go to places she shouldn't be in. In actuality Artemisia never got away with anything, or even made it out of the city.
Artemisia often was told to be more like her mom and to grow up to be a scholar, and while she would like to be a scholar of some sort or the other, she'd also like to travel the world. Be a traveling scholar, something she knows her parents will dislike. Her two elder siblings both are nicely situated people in society, boring actually, really boring. Or as Artemisia likes to put it, "people who can't think for themselves."
When she was 24, like all of the remaining occupants of Anthera, Artemisia was uprooted and moved to the Islands of Valinor. To this day Artemisia swears that the most exciting part of her life was the one time she caught a glimpse of the giant worm(she was sitting on the rooftops).
Though her siblings told her that she was going to die before she hit 30, Artemisia still has yet to die, and it's been 26 years since she turned 30. Though knock on wood in order not to jinx it. All of Artemisia's family survived the attack in Anthera and moved to Vailnor along with the rest of the elves. Artemisia's eldest sibling, her brother, helped build their new shining city.
The years in between 26 and 50 were relatively uneventful to Artemisia. Any major events of significance Artemisia was not allowed to participate in being a child by Elven standards. However, the year that Artemisia became an adult the plague stuck Valinor and her mother, still widowed, was killed by it, and Artemisia inherited her parents house. All her siblings having moved out and claiming houses of their own.
At Now 3 years later Artemisia is slightly more mature, as with time one does seem to do. Though not much. Her mischievous side still exists, and she still has reckless tendencies. Soon though she'll get out of the city.
That'll be the best day of her life. And just possibly the most exciting too.
Personality Traits: Artemisia is stubborn, really, she is more stubborn than a mule and her mother always said that it would be her downfall. She doesn't like backing down when she believes in something, however, she won't back down when faced with a challenge. In fact she doesn't believe in backing down. Ever. So if you have a friend in her she'll defend you to the end. Artemisia tens to swing moods like a child swings on a swing. One moments she'll be angry and the next she'll be happy as can be. She finds that it's one her her worse problems. However, it also means that sometimes when she's feeling moody she can easily rectify it and become happy, however it can swing the other way. Artemisia tends to be blunt, she believes I telling people things at face value, however she lies a lot too. And she's not a bad liar. She tends to be a bit lazy, but is a big dreamer. And if you say something playful to her and she responds with I Hate You. Then just take it as I Love You. Though in a non-serious, noncommittal, totally platonic way. Make sense? Artemisia tends to fly high and loud, she she'll be happy for most of the time. But when she's moody it's never a good thing. She might fire just one bow at your for warning purposes. You know, totally not meant to harm. Artemisia is clever, definitely clever. Like Clara Oswald from DW! She's a fast thinker, but is naive, and she does like to think the best of people. While being totally paranoid and a bit moody sometimes too. It's confusing. But it works. She tends to be a drama queen so she'll oven under or over exaggerate things. It comes with the territory. She tends to dislike her family and the principals of the High Elves in general, thinking them too stuck up. However she still lives with them. However, Artemisia, in the end, is nice. She tends to like people unless they're unnecessarily cruel or mean. And she'll try to get along with you for the most part, while be can't be brash and boastful and blunt, she can also be brave and bold and willing to help.

Appearance (List the extra details of your characters appearance, IE; height & weight): Artemisia is blonde(I think), she has blue eyes(again I think), and is considered short height for an elf(I think!), though short height for elves is still quite tall. So I'd place her at 1.78 meters tall. Which to the possible Americans reading this, is 5 feet, 10 inches. She weighs about 61kg(135 lbs), which is not anorexic by any means. I know because I looked it up(the power of Google).
She's kind of lithe, so she's not going to fall over at any moment, but she's certain not the largest. So she can can sort of throw a punch if she puts her whole body into it.
Like most elves she's got pale skin.
Appearance, please provide us a screenshot of your character’s skin (If you need help, see our screenshot guide here): I'm afraid I don't know how to get my character to zoom out. And I apologise for the fact that the skin isn't LOTR. I share this account with a friend, and while she doesn't go on the RP's, she gets to choose the skin. So I can't change it. But give me a bit to get on the apperence for my charrie's skin.
P.S. I apologise for the application length. I'm used to purely text RP's where they expect an application this long and I just got so used to writing like this that I have yet to stop doing it like this.
