Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Out of character

OOC: is used when you want to talk about things in real life. It is used when you want to ask a question, such as-

OOC: What did you post the last page?
(Or you can say)
OOC: Hi! I'm glad you're here!

2. After using OOC:, if you want to go back to creating the story with other people, you type BIC: What does BIC: stand for?

Answer: Back in character

You use the abbreviation BIC: when you want to go back into character, or continue with the script. When you roleplay you write a story together with the other characters. Your characters interact and you can make individual plots or plots involving several characters. Plots are usually expressed using OOC: Here's an example of some roleplaying using OOC: and BIC:

OOC: HI! How was school? Do you want to make Cherryblossom have kits soon? Then when Littlecreek dies she can be really sad.

BIC: Cherryblossom padded into the middle of camp slowly, her stomach hurt.She wondered if she was getting fat, or if she was expecting kits... The cat padded over to her mate Littlecreek and meowed. "My stomach hurts."

3. There are many abbreviations used in roleplaying other than OOC: and BIC:. What does the word 'charries' mean?

Answer: Characters

Charries is a shorter way of saying characters. You would use this in an example like this-

OOC: Littlecreek's my charrie so sure that'd be fine with me.
(Or you can say)
OOC: these are the charries I roleplay- littlecreek, adderfang, thunderspirit, lightningstar, and berrypaw.

Answer: Powerplay

Powerplaying is when you make someone else's character do something. Powerplaying is not always against the rules; in fact it can be good. If one person who roleplays important characters is going away for a trip in real life, and will be unable to roleplay, they can ask certain other roleplayers to powerplay their characters while they're gone. Here is an example of powerplay if I created the character Cherryblossom, but did NOT create, or normally roleplay the character Applepaw.

Cherryblossom padded over to Applepaw and asked the apprentice how her day was going. When the apprentice said it was fine Cherryblossom nodded and meowed, "Yes, it is a good day, but I wish Littlecreek would come back soon."

5. A very commonly used abbreviation is 'rp'. What does 'rp' stand for?

Answer: Roleplay

Rp is used often to say roleplay. To say roleplaying you type rping. Here's an example of when you'd use the abbreviation rp.

OOC: are you there? if you are let's rp!

Answer: Be right back, be back later, got to go, by the way

These are good to know to use in OOC: Here's an example when you could use brb and bbl, if you are going to get something to eat.

OOC: I am going to eat lunch, brb (OR) OOC: I will bbl, I hope you'll still be here.

7. What does 'rl' mean?

Answer: Real life

This is used to talk about something in real life. If you say, 'she died' in OOC:, you could be talking about a character in rp or someone in real life, and how would someone know for sure? Here's a way to use rl.

OOC: she is sick in rl, so she can't rp (roleplay) for awhile.

8. There are many different types of roleplaying sites. There's some about animals, people, knights, and many more. What do most roleplaying sites focus on, or what genre are they?

Answer: Fantasy

Many roleplaying sites are stories about fictional things, including the many sites I like to roleplay on. I roleplay on sites about the Warriors books by Erin Hunter, but there are many different fictional/fantasy sites to roleplay on.

Answer: Dungeons and Dragons

Gary Gygax and David Arneson are almost considered pioneers of roleplaying. They created one of the first, if not THE first successful roleplaying system.

10. One of the most commonly played role-playing systems is the D20 system. Which has NOT been an officially supported setting available for this system?

Answer: Stone age

The D20 system was originally developed for the third edition of the Dungeons and Dragons fantasy game. It has been expanded for both contemporary settings (with the possibility of adding magic and/or psionic powers) and future settings. While the Dungeons and Dragons game itself is now going into its fifth edition (with quite different rules), the D20 core rules are publicly available under an open license and still have commercial support in the form of the Pathfinder RPG.
