In Second Life we can find a large number
of global groups for virtual role-playing , including vampire, Goth ,
steampunk, fantasy,furry, historical , pirate and nautical clubs.
Each RP Community has its own history and
so it is highly recommended to read any information provided by RP SIMS. This
will make your gaming experience the most complete and enjoyable as possible.
When the player accepts the rules of the RP,
he/she takes the role of a character previously established, just as in a theatrical
performance and interacts with the other players. It is highly recommended to wear an outfit
that matches the character. Most RP SIMS
make it mandatory.
Each RP SIM guides the user to get
appropriate clothing for more realism to the game. When he/she incorporates the
character, he should use his imagination to give some realism to the scenes.
For example, what would really happen if he was there. In general, the
character speaks using the first person , typing "/ me " at the
beginning of each sentence .
In so-called live action role playing game
( LARP ) , the characters move according to the scenes. But in general, RPG,
everything is based on the imagination of the plan. The scenes and fights are
described by the characters, not physically experienced .
For example , if the character is dancing
, you will imagine and describe body movements and sensations that his dance is
expressing. You don’t need to run to a dance ball to represent the scene. The
important thing is that to describe the scene in the local chat so the other
characters are able to follow and interact. This can be weird for a beginner
but with practice, the ability to describe the scenes keeps getting better as
the storyline progresses.
Fortunately, in most SIMs there is a
friendly area for beginners where you can practice your game safely.
Bloodlines
is a vampire-themed RP game example set within Second Life. It is also one of
the oldest and most popular. The game achieved a huge popularity rating.
Membership is still phenomenal, especially among newbies.
Many families and
clans, well organized, disclose the vampire culture, influencing the behavior
in SL. To gain position, you must have voluntary souls. We still see many
Bloodlines players in clubs, beaches and shops, looking for new victims to
bite. Some humans prefer to keep their humanity, but serve the vampire culture
as a renewable source of blood.

Travel back in
time, the daily life of Berlin in 1920, during the Weimar Republic.
The Berlin Project
1920 is an online interactive model of historical SIM, created within the
virtual world of Second Life The objective of the project is to give visitors
the opportunity to delve into the past. I loved this one! The experience is
fun, but also educational. In the RP SIM, you will see some exact replicas of
real buildings like the exclusive Hotel Adlon in Berlin Alexanderplatz station,
the inn Zum Nußbaum and Brandenburg Gate. There are also reconstructions of
buildings made, used to show people another side of life in the 1920s The
neighborhood includes tiny apartments, you can visit and shops selling clothes
of that era. There is also a theater where people can see real films from the
20's, school, hotel and nightclub, called Der Keller, where people can listen
to original music and dance in 1920.The RP SIM has rules for all visitors.
People should dress in according to the 20's trends. There are boxes of free
clothes at the entrance plaza, which allow avatars to do that. The idea is to
make all visitors and residents feel as if they belong to the period of time.
Currently,
there are 169 Role-playing Communities, according to the guide of the Second
Life destinations. You can PR anything, be a magical fairy, a magician, a
dragon, a fearsome warrior, the curator of a band of marauding pagan or survivor
of the apocalypse. Your imagination is the limit!
