Roleplaying

Unlike many other MUDs, roleplaying on InfernoMOO is most definitely NOT required. In fact, almost the entire playerbase is hostile to the idea of roleplaying in the traditional sense and will actively pick on you for it.

However, you'll start to notice that almost all serious Inferno players roleplay to some extent, in the sense of getting involved in the reality of the actions your player is taking and the interactions you're having with the world and other players. That's the kind of roleplaying we try to encourage, as opposed to the traditional I'm a bitter wasteland bounty hunter whose parents were killed by ninjas! roleplaying.

So feel free to get really into being that teenage mutant with a black leather jacket and dual pistols and a grudge against chuds.

Still, with the flexibility of (subpar) outfits, emoting and posing, it is a somewhat conducive environment to the activity, if you're one of those nerds that likes decorating, going ham with text and making custom areas to stick full of furniture and text loot.
