-Define Power-gaming in your own words:
Abusing OOC information or in-game mechanics to gain an advantage over other players. Power-gaming will also ruin the RP experience of other players even if it isn't being directly used against them (I.E. constantly cheating death).
-Define Meta-gaming in your own words:
Meta-gaming is using information that you know, but your character doesn't know to avoid danger, death, or other harmful events. I.E. if I knew that there was a trap set down one road, and I purposefully sent my character down another to avoid the confrontation.

-Character name:
Tortek Ironheart
-Character race:
Dwarf
-Character age:
100
-Character Occupation:
Miner
-Character description:
Tortek is tall for a dwarf with a height of 5'. He is quite muscular after spending years in the mines, which have also given him scars across his arms and face from debris. Tortek has a crude face and a dark brown beard that reaches down to his stomach and brown eyes. His beard is surprisingly well kept like the rest of his hair with braids held together with iron bands. His armor is polished and brandishes his family insignia: a heart of iron with a golden trim and red blood seeping from cracks in the ironshell. He's rarely seen without a pick and almost always has a smile on his face that can be considered deranged when he continues to smile while cutting into an orc or enemy.
-Character personality and traits:
Tortek appears to be a cheery and happy dwarf, but in reality he's short-tempered and somewhat deranged. He will often shout out random historical facts about his ancestors, city, or other nonsense. However, when Tortek isn't having an episode he is quite civilized but lacks a large vocabulary and will often speak in short and simple sentences or make grunts and other noises to express himself. He finds pride in his work and gets upset at people for being lazy. It's also hard to tell if Tortek is ever sober because he will always have some kind of drink with him at all times of the day and considers it impossible to work without having at least three drinks beforehand. However, Tortek is still quite bright and enjoys making acquaintances with everyone he meets, but he only trusts close friends and will not have more than a few.
-Character biography:
Tortek was born into Clan Ironheart, which was one of the largest and proudest Clans in Thonduhm. Clan Ironheart controlled the largest amount of mines and had many Master Blacksmiths to it's name. Tortek was raised as a noble but when he began to grow his beard he was given a job in the family business and became a foreman of many of his family's mines. Tortek had 15 other siblings and became incredibly independent and focused on bringing honor to his family through hard work. Tortek worked in the mines among his workers increasing their moral and his own reputation.
Once the war between the Alliance and the Pact began, Clan Ironheart directed all ores, weapons, and armor to the war. Tortek and his miners always went above and beyond their quotas and worked hard to keep Thonduhm safe. However, even after all the efforts of the dwarves and the Alliance it was all for not and the fall of Thonduhm became inevitable. Clan Ironheart used what money they had left after losing most of it to fund the war effort to build ships further in the west. Tortek assisted in a great exodus out of a secret passage in the back of Thonduhm to the ships, but many didn't make it to the ships due to goblin infestation along the road to the coast. When the remaining dwarf refugees from Thonduhm and Clan Ironheart reached the coast there were 1,000 left of the 15,000 that had fled in the beginning. Defeated and scared the refugees barely had the will to keep going, but Tortek never gave up and kept shouting them on until they finally reached the ships and fled goblin pursuit onto the open sea.
Disaster struck almost immediately. Dwarves were not meant for sailing from their lives under the ground and their height, but it was a storm that brought an end to this exodus. 15 ships had left the docks and within 3 days the fleet of refugees sailed into a storm. What little the dwarves did know about sailing were from books and in a panic they began to throw supplies they had brought overboard to decrease the weight of a ship in the hopes of sailing faster and out of the storm. Tortek knew that it was hopeless once they entered the storm but nevertheless helped his kin as much he could. BOOM. SNAP. Lightning strikes the mast of Tortek's ship sending it into the sea. Waves continue to crash against the ship and Tortek quickly loses sight of the other ships. Soaked and doomed the refugees begin to pray for mercy, but before Tortek can react to the situation a colossal wave hits the ship's broadside turning it over and sending Tortek into the ocean.
Tortek doesn't know how he woke up on a beach still clinging onto life, but he does curse whichever God was cruel enough to keep him alive. Tortek first believed that he may have drifted back to the mainland but quickly realizes that he's trapped on an Island covered with a forest. He spends the next 10 or so years alone on this island slowly losing his mind from loneliness and the grief of losing those that he loved. Tortek is fortunate enough that the island is undiscovered and has a population of pigs and fish that keep him alive. He does little in those 10 years other then survive and develop a habit of shouting out historical information to anyone who will listen... except no one is listening. Tortek never gave up hope, but he also never knew what he hoped for so he was lost in an endless cycle. Until today, Tortek was minding his own business and fishing while recounting the miner's union agreement "Article 36, line 7" when a group of travelers appear further down the beach...
-Please give us a short RP response to these two scenarios.
You’re walking around the markets at around noon. There’s a lot of people around you, still gathering their items as they prepare to shut down their many stands. Suddenly you feel a gentle lifting of your coin purse as a child graces you and soon after they take off sprinting. You have been robbed.
Tortek chases the child shouting out Thonduhm's law on purse snatching and the punishments associated with the heinous crime...
"AY, what's this?"
Tortek bends over and peers at a pebble in the road he quickly loses interest and then looks back up. He stands still for a moment trying to remember what was going on and after failing to do so he decides to go drink and mine where he can find some peace and quiet.
You’re heading back to the city through the woods when you hear a whining coming from nearby. Upon further investigation you come across a grey-coloured wolf that appears to have its leg caught in a bear trap. Around it is three smaller lumps of fur, obviously puppies belonging to the trapped mother. Without help, they’ll all die, but wolf skins are quite valuable too, not to mention that the nearby farms suffer quite a bit from the wolf population.
Tortek loves all animals after they helped him survive for years on a deserted island, so he pries the trap open ignoring the injuries he receives and binds the mother wolf. He sustains some more injuries from the mother wolf while he binds her wound but ignores them muttering about his scandalous aunt. Once Tortek finishes and the mother wolf has seen Tortek is not a threat he leaves the wolves to wander back into the wild, and he heads back to his hut.
Alright, first off, you really need pictures or a video. Second, if your mod is barely even started (even if it adds something small), it would have a better home in the WIP forum.
We are adding pictures right now so wait one sec :tongue.gif: (Also I am Paul)
