Second Life Avatars and Role Play.
Second life avatars are like actors. Remember when you were a kid you used to dress up and play make believe. You were in essence acting out roles; role playing.
Second life avatars are like make believe for RL adults. Role play communites abound in SL. Each is unique. Some more organized than others. Some are very strict about holding true or canon to the format of the story lines. Some Star Wars role play sims are very strick. Visitors are required to wear visitor tags and are in essence invisible to the residents who are engaged in role play.
((Below are images of some of the different roles or characters I created and Wisdom has brought to life in SL. To me second life is role play. From the moment you login you have begun to role play.
You have to immerse yourself in the character of the second life avatar. In the case where the avatar is a horse or a whale, the opportunity for seeing a perspective from the first person point of view is amazing. More to come….))
((Each of the Second Life Avatar characters here has their own section of this blog but here is a brief summary:))
