Okay, in an RPG, you take control of a character and you lead him/her throughout an adventure that is created by your fellow characters. Your character interacts with other characters (controlled by fellow players), and your actions will often have an affect on everyone else. It's almost like writing a story, except you can only write it through the viewpoint of the character you are controlling. You can check out the "TMNT RPG Chapter 5" thread as an example. Lemme know if you're still confused....
