A Beginner's Guide to Roleplaying

Don't know how to roleplay? Don't worry; we're here to help!

Speaking
In roleplaying, of course your character has something to say! There are several ways to make your character "talk".

1. The first and most used way is to type your character's name, then a : or -, then type what they have to say, so it looks like this:

Ravenstar: ThunderClan, attack! or Ravenstar - ThunderClan, attack!

2. The next way is the fancier way. You type like you would if you were, say, writing a book. Be sure to use quotes ("). It should look something like this:

"ThunderClan, attack!" Ravenstar yowled.

Actions
Like speaking, there is a simple way and a fancy way to make your character do something.

1. The simple way is to put what your character is "doing" in between these: *, or these: -. It should look like:

Ravenstar: -jumps on fat mouse- or Ravenstar - *jumps on fat mouse*

2. And, you can do it the fancy way as well.

Ravenstar jumped on the fat mouse.
