 | | In pen and paper RPGs, participants play the parts of characters in an imaginary world that usually is organized, adjudicated, and sometimes created by the gamemaster, usually with the support of rules, simple or complex. |
 | | RPGs were originally played on a tabletop, because they involved paper, dice, and, often, miniatures or tokens of some kind. |
 | | Some RPG rules systems are complex and attempt to be realistic simulations; other rules systems place a priority on game balance or on personality, character development, and storytelling. |
