| | Role-Playing FAQ |
| | Role-playing is simply a system of gaming where a player creates a character to play in a storyline. | | | It is as if you are an actor/actress in a play or a movie, playing a part in order to make a storyline more interesting. | | | So make sure that your character is not invulnerable, even if he or she is a god or other such diety, and has several feasible weaknesses so that normal characters have a fighting chance against you if you should ever fight. |

| | Typically, a role-playing playing group consists of one person in charge of the game "world", called, amongst other things, the GM (Game Master). | | | The rest of the group are 'players' or 'cannon fodder' and interact with the world through the GM. | | | In its most basic form, role-playing is all about taking part in a story - rather than simply reading a book or watching a movie, you participate and build the story for yourself and others playing with you. |
