Roleplay

A roleplay (usually shortened to RP) is essentially what it's name implies; an activity within which the participants fulfil the roles of certain characters. Roleplaying and a roleplaying game are specifically differentiated, in that roleplaying is done through the written (or typed) word, while RPGs deal strictly with video games. There are various types of roleplaying, the most common form of which is the norm on the KHInsider Forum Roleplaying Section. Roleplaying usually involves, to varying degrees, progression of events in the storyline, physical or psychological development in the characters involved, an emergence of conflict or a difficulty that must be faced, and the overcoming or defeat at the hands of that difficulty.

There are various types of roleplays that can be explored;

- Comedies; though rare, its premise is still available.

- Horror; like Comedies, Horror is relatively rare as well.

- Adventure; the most common of roleplays.

- Romance; More common than horror or comedy roleplays, but still not measuring up to the levels of the adventure roleplay
