A Role-Playing Game player, usually simply referred to as a player, is a participant in a role-playing game in which they assume the roles of player characters (PCs) in a fictional setting. Players take responsibility for acting out these roles within a narrative, either through literal acting, or through a process of structured decision-making regarding character development. Actions taken within many games succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and guidelines.
