Role-playing

Role-playing (RP), in Runes of Magic, means taking on the role of a character by acting it out in-game through emotes, /say, and occasionally other channels. Role-playing is similar to improvisational theater, where the participants act out their character in unscripted situations. The character's personality, goals, morals, and quirks may resemble that of the player or be completely different. Regardless, role-players recognize a boundary between what is in character, (IC) and what is out of character.(OOC)
