 Role-playing game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In fact, many non-athletic games involve some aspect of role-playing; however, role-playing games tend to focus on this aspect of behaviour.
This type of role playing can be a form of fan fiction, with players taking the roles of characters from their favorite movies, television shows or books.
These games often have little to do with the dice or random number generators used by some players to determine outcomes; rather, characters are created and manipulated by their players in the form of a large interwoven story, using only the imagination to determine what occurs.

 Jeff Kesselman's Blog: Cross Gender Role-play
In general, entertainment can reach the level of art when it teaches us about the world and/or ourselves, I believe that role play games played with serious role-play can teach us to be more sensitive to others issues and needs by allowing us to experience perspectives and issues different from our own.
One of the most enjoyable but difficult role-playing experiences is trying to play a different gender.
In method acting, when you don't initially have the experiences to draw on, an accepted way to develop the character is to look for external role models and through a combination of mimicry and empathy try to draw into your own experience base the ways they deal with the world.

 Role-playing game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The oldest form of role-playing games were fantasy wargames, so named because participants used miniature figurines and scaled terrain grids to illustrate action in a way similar to that of tactical wargames.
Because the terms "role-playing game" and "RPG" have both to some degree been co-opted by the computer gaming industry, traditional non-digital pastimes of this sort are increasingly being referred to as pen and paper role-playing games (PnP RPG or PPRPG) or tabletop role-playing games (TTRPG).
Some players consider Collectible card games to be a kind of role-playing game.

 FAQ for REC.GAMES.FRP.SUPER-HEROES, the super-hero role playing game UseNET newsgroup
Role Playing Games (RPGs) are typically group games where the participants take on the roles of imaginary characters in a specific setting created by the person running the game, known as the game master.
Computer-based role-playing games (CRPGs) are not traditional role-playing games, and as with the majority of rpgs, the crpgs are flooded with medieval fantasy games.
Games using licensed characters, such as Spider-Man or Batman, do not qualify as the user can only take the role of the licensed character and is usually forced along a specific path; these games are not role-playing, they are game-playing.

 Hexapedia - Role-playing game
The first roleplaying games as such were played in the mid 1960s in and around the University of Minnesota's wargaming society, especially in the groups moderated by Dave Wesley and Dave Arneson.
Interactive and impromptu dramas have included elements of play long before the advent of modern wargames; the children's games of "Playing House" or "Cowboys and Indians" are in essence very simple role-playing games.
Role-playing games were originally played on a tabletop, because they involved paper, dice, and, often, miniature figures or tokens of some kind.
