Roleplaying Basics

What does RP and RPG stand for?
RP stands for Role Play/Role-Playing and RPG is an abbreviation for Role Playing Game.

What is the point of RPing?
In roleplaying, a person creates a character or selects a premade character and takes on the qualities of this character, interacting with other fictional characters to tell a story.

How do you do it?
Think of RPing like writing a fanfiction story, except in this case, you have numerous people contributing to numerous characters. No one person is in control of where the story goes or what happens. That’s what makes it interesting. It can also be viewed as a play done in written fashion.
