To refer to the playing of roles generally such as in a theater, or educational setting;
To refer to a wide range of games including computer role-playing games, play-by-mail games and more;
To refer specifically to role-playing games.
Now that we know the definition, there is no need to be afraid. I am a theatre major( and double majoring it with eng. education and lit. major), as well as an avid role player. I would love to audio record it and share with you guys.
ENJOY!!!
(I might include some online roleplays I'm in.)
