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 communicate in-game with other characters over long distances via:
- Gwethdesuans, known popularly as "gweths". Gweths can be purchased from other player characters in game.
- The Thoughtcast spell. This spell allows the caster to send a message directly to another and communicate with the target using SEND for one minute.
- The Distant Gaze spell allows Moon Mages to observe or relay messages to any room where they have a moonbeam.
- 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").
While out-of-character (OOC) communication is not necessary for roleplay, there are several OOC resources that can be used to communicate and plan interactions with other roleplayers:
- NEWS 4 10 and NEWS 4 3 give information about scheduled events in game.
- https://forums.play.net/calendar?game=dragonrealms is the official event calendar for DragonRealms.
- https://discord.me/dragonrealms is a Discord server with a channel dedicated to roleplaying.
- The forums have topics for Events and Happenings in DragonRealms' Elanthia, Player Guilds, Clans and Families, Official and Player-Run Organizations.
Characters actively involved in roleplay
- Only add your own characters or the characters of players who have specifically asked to be added here.
- Please limit each character to a total of no more than 10 affiliations/interests. If you need to elaborate further, feel free to do so on your character's personal page.
- The Guild and Race columns do not necessarily mean that a character belongs to those groups, just that the character's RP often involves those groups (for example, anti-Necromancer).
- The Genie roleplayer highlights can be useful for identifying those willing to RP in game.
