Role Playing Links

Role-playing is the art of creating and acting out a character, complete with distinct mannerisms, speech patterns and personality when interacting with other players on the game. While in-character (IC), a player acts and reacts as his or her defined character would. While out of character (OOC), a player would act as he or she would in "real life".

A good role-player takes into consideration all aspects of the era and environment in which his character lives. This includes living habits, mannerisms of the times and the history of the times. Not only does a role-player act in-character, they also react in character to the conversations and activities surrounding him or her.

Role-players should never take anything personal when playing out their character or hide behind their character to act out real life grievances.
