Roleplaying resources and community connections
What is roleplaying?
Roleplaying (also known as RP) is acting out your fictional character's personality, motivations, and actions instead of those of you the player. It can be grand or small-scale, but the experience is very fun for many players!
This page is intended as a resource that DragonRealms players can use to help foster and build the RP community, and to house useful information both for brand new players and established players to feel more confident in how they can jump into RP in DR.
See Out of Character and OOC Euphemisms for behavior that may be considered objectionable among role-players.
How do I find others to roleplay with?
There are a number of popular gathering places throughout Elanthia where characters regularly socialize. Some are more permanent fixtures or more highly trafficked than others.
You can also talk to other characters ICly over long distances via:
- Gwethdesuans, known popularly as "gweths". Gweths can be purchased from other PCs.
- Albredine crystal rings, often simply called crystal rings. These can be purchased from static shops in the game.
- Various colored albredine rings, which will allow group talk between anyone who has a ring attuned to the same color. These are sometimes dropped by creatures, and can be purchased in static shops in game.
- The Thoughtcast spell. This spell allows the caster to send a message directly to another and communicate with the target using THINK TO for a very short time.
- A warrior mage's familiar, which can relay messages from its master.
- Some other special items, such as gwererest shells and whisper charms (also called "bird charms").
Characters actively involved in roleplay
- Only add your own characters' or the characters of players who have specifically asked to be added here.
- Limit each character to no more than 10 focuses or affiliations. If you need to elaborate further, feel free to do so on your character's personal page.
- The Genie roleplayer highlights can be useful for identifying those willing to RP in game.
