Hey, man. First off, I want to say, welcome to the wikia and welcome to Moon Guard. I really appreciate that you put up your character page. I am Moorwhelp, one of the admins. If you see me around in-game, please stop to say hello and role-play.

I think what my fellow wikia patrons are trying to convey is that while your character can be power, even really powerful, even really really powerful, the place where most people on this server are going to get hung up is a sort of qualitative comparison, e.g. Moorwhelp is the most powerful healer in the Grand Alliance, rumoured to exceed even Prophet Velen.

The way I will explain this is that the wikia is supposed to (mostly) reflect a factual, informational approach to sharing our character. So when the wikia says "Moorwhelp is the most powerful healer," there can only be one "most powerful healer," and thus I am saying, necessarily, that other healers, NPC and PC, are inferior to my character. That is making a presumption about everyone else's character on a source considered to be factual and informational without their consent, which amounts to a problematic assertion that would make it hard for you to RP with others because it has the potential to create a divergent universe in which you are not the most powerful mage in the universe because someone doesn't want to be told their characters are inferior.

Ultimately, no one here wants to "nerf" your character or tell you you can't do something; the only thing folks want is for you not to put yourself in a situation where it is hard for you to find RP because of a very simple stylistic issue. I think if you were to remove the assertion that your character was the most powerful mage in the Alliance and simply say that your character is a very powerful mage in the Alliance, all anxiety would be alleviated on all ends and everyone can enjoy your page.
