These are only the basics to role-playing, if you need to know more ask one of the more experienced role-players who will probably tell you what you are doing wrong and how to improve.. :D

What is role-playing
Role-playing is text based fighting with stories and backgrounds for an imaginary character. The aim of the game is to win a match this not does mean you kill your opposition.

How to describe your character and points to use
Here are some things you can use to describe your character, different groups may recruit different members.
-Personality
-Appearence
-Skills and Moves
-Likes/Dislikes
-Background
-Where they originated (this does not always apply)
-And anything else you can think of..

Please remember you cannot have a character that can never get hurt
