In the earlier article, I talked about how to go for role-playing. In this article, I continue with the idea of role-play and talk about the various areas and opportunities through which you can show your creativity in Renaissance Kingdoms.

Role-playing opportunities

Renaissance Kingdoms gives you ample opportunity to indulge in role playing, through its carefully marked out forums. There are two different forums, the first one being an entirely public forum, where players can interact freely with other players of the same “towns” and “countries”. The second forum is more of a private area, or the sub forum, where players create their own private groups and where access is limited. Here are some of the broader areas where you can explore the RP options with ease.

Sub forums

Families

Families are one way to indulge in a community based role play. Players are encouraged to form their own families, invite other people to become members of the family, and indulge in a very entertaining role play. There is usually a forum moderator who keeps track of the families of a particular Kingdom. Families can become Noble families, August Houses, Exalted House and even Royal Houses, upon fulfilling certain criteria.

Guilds and Associations

Guilds or organizations are another way of indulging in role play. These player made organizations are based on specific interests and anyone fulfilling the criteria may become a member. There are professional guilds, guilds for legal representation, the specific armed groups and guilds along with the family forums.

The Glen and the Weald

These are two special sub-forums of Renaissance Kingdoms which are excellent to go for, in case you want to role-play. The Glen, as the name suggests, is a tranquil area which many players use freely to initiate role-plays which they wish to share with people of other towns and counties. The Weald, on the other hand, is an opportunity to explore the darker side of your creativity – all night time, spooky, adventurous, and sinister kinds of role-play opportunities are available here. Expect some fantastic leads and some heavy duty role-play in here.

Politics

While the in-game political scene is limited to the Count, the Mayor, and the town/county Council, there are many more opportunities to role-play your talents, through the forums. Starting with simple opportunities as the trade minister or ambassador to another county, you can aspire to become the Regent Elect of the Kingdom you are in. Write for the local newspaper, or become a revolutionary. Each Kingdom, County and Town may have its own set of rules, to ensure that every player can enjoy the role-play.
