Character Role-playing Role playing is basically pretending to be something which you are not, but I think it goes much deeper than that. By playing the role of the character, you can share in the wonder, in the joy, in the sadness, and all the other wonderful things that your character has the potential for. If, on the other hand, playing an evil character is, for you, where you want to be the Moriarty of the realm, (look it up if you have to), or the king of thieves, or the assassin who gets their target, then PLAY the part. www.fortunecity.com /millennium/sat/126/rpg.htm   (6317 words)

EQ Stratics - EverQuest Resource A MMOG can be a fun and rewarding experience any way you play it, but for those of us who enjoy role-playing then doing so should only increase your experience with the game.

Basic Free Role Playing System It starts with a look at one philosophy from which a Role Playing System (RPS) could be considered, and proceeds to a simple set of rules which should allow a sufficiently complex game to be interesting to be played.

This is a system based on the use of a single deck of standard playing cards which still has the two jokers left in it. www.romsys.demon.co.uk /frpg/bfrps.htm   (2938 words)

Amazon.com: Books: GURPS Basic Set (GURPS: Generic Universal Role Playing System) My playing group has been using GURPS 3rd edtion for nearly 10 years now, and the only little grudge we have with the system is the need to peruse through several books during character generation. You can play GURPS with the Basic Set only, but the other books can be very useful depending on what kind of a game you're running. Amazingly enough, this covers more than just the basics, it also allows the player and GM's to go deeper into the game development and rules, the rabbit hole is only as deep as you want to explore in this case. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/155634127X?v=glance   (2245 words)

BBC - h2g2 - Role-playing 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. Typically, a role-playing playing group consists of one person in charge of the game "world", called, amongst other things, the GM (Game Master).
