Yes I have gone through them.
5. In your own words, how would you define metagaming and powergaming?
meta gaming is when you the person knows something that the character you ar e playing doesn't know but you still use that information in the rp.
power gaming is when you do something that keeps the other role-player from reacting to the action like running up to hit someone and hitting that person in the same move or it could be something that makes you invulnerable like saying you are surrounded by bodyguards in full armor and always ready to make sure your character can't get attacked.

8. Tell us about yourself!
I do boxing in real life as a side activity. My favorite game is Fallout 4 because you get to explore a huge an open world with rich lore taking stuff from even the original in cannon game. I do lots of school group activities like music, diversity groups, a student leadership board, yearbook, and drama. Drama is actually is kind of what got me into rps like D&D and eventually branching out into different types of role-play. These are some of the hobbies and things I like to do by choice mostly due to how much free time I have. Then finally fun fact about me I did a dare when I was 5 to eat a bowl of ketchup.

N/A
10. Did anyone refer you? If not, how did you find our server?
I was not referred I found this through the Minecraft forum.

Scenario- Me and 2 mercenaries are about to enter a populated city but are approached by a guard.
Guard-"State your buisiness"
Me/Valstorm-*flashes some gold"listen bud I just need to talk to my pals in the city. Now if you want me high profile elf wait out here and tell my superiors of this occurrence then so be it"
Merc 1 and 2-*snarl*"our client here would like to enter and we must assure his arrival so move or we must make you move"
Guard-"Fine. You shall be permitted access into the city but I will be putting you under watch until we are sure of your intent if you are lying then we will remove you by force"
Group then walks past the guard and enters the thriving community. They look on and see market stalls and pubs. Then across the way they see The Hardlock. The Hardlock is one of the most famous pubs of all time but this group wasn't looking for some cold brew at least valstorm wasn't but they did enter the pub and spotted there subject and approached him.
Man-"Hello cretins what you need cause I don't got it"

Man-"heard this story 100 times. Do you wanna know what happens...nothing its all in your head"
Valstorm-"ok if you won't help for the greater good you will help for some radiant right noone can pass some easy radiant right"

the man then disappears into the crowd of people in the pub valstorm and the mercs find a quiet tavern and get ready to bunk in but then....
Town Guard-"Open this door immediately or we will need to break this door down!"
The 3 people jump out the window of the room and go barreling down the street they then dive into an alley by the Hardlock Inn they wait till a massive crowd of armed guards pass and make there way to the gate. There waiting for them is the man from the bar with packed horses.
man-"meatheads you coming"
valstorm-*saddles a horse*"set course for home boys"
they all go riding off into the night not knowing of anything to come in the future.

About Your Character!
This section is about the character you intend to use once you join the server.We ask that new players follow these guidelines during this portion of the application:
- Characters begin with basic skills and gear. No advanced armor or weaponry. Skills and abilities are appropriate to a novice level. Skills should be learned through roleplay, not through backstory.
- Characters fit the lore. If you choose to play as a Moor Elf, for example, we expect appearance and details to be fitting with base lore.
- Characters cannot use magic in any way. The test itself should not mention magic either. HollowWorld uses a restricted magic system and it is only accessible to those who find and learn from a teacher in-game.
- Tests should not be violent. No murder, killing, death, torture. In the past, 8 out of 10 applications featured characters fighting off bandits or slaying passersby. We don't want to see how well you can script a fight scene. We want to see how well you can tell a story, how well you can roleplay.
- Be creative and be original. Do not use tests/characters whose home villages were burned, parents murdered, and then set off to be an orphan assassin. It has been done before. Please don't do it again.
- Written portion of the test is required to be a 400 word minimum. If the test doesn't meet the minimum, Staff may ask you to extend the test before the application is considered.
