Guide: Roleplay Basics

As for role-play (RP), there are a few things that one should be able to understand about in-character and out of character.

In character
During RP, a player is playing as their actual character, and they are in-character as their toon.

Example: Kalesath brings his hand up and points to the heavens. (/e brings his hand up and points to the heavens.)

Cross-faction Example: *Kalesath brings his hand up and points to the heavens.*

Out of Character
During RP, it is inevitable that you'll have to talk out of character to clear things up. So, the basics to speaking out of character is to use brackets, or parentheses to properly show the difference.

Example: ( Would my character know about that? ); (( Would my character know about this? ))
