What is a RPG?
A RPG is a roleplaying game. These are games which allow a person to act out various different fantasy situations and characters, usually with a troupe of other players. Some RPG’s are played around a table with ten or more sided dice, others are acted out as in a play (Live action roleplaying). Some are played with cards, and still others are played with a mixture of all of the above. There are several different companies which design RPG’s. Among them are Dungeons and Dragon (wizards, knights, shape-shifters,etc), Ravenloft (Vampires, but you play the enemy of the vampire), White Wolf (the “world of Darkness” series includes Vampires, Werewolves, changelings, Mages and ghosts), Wizards of the Coast (Magic: The gathering, Vampire: The eternal struggle) and countless others.
