Roleplaying is just like pretending you're someone else, almost, or telling a story with someone else.

An rp sample is showing an example of your roleplaying.

An example of my roleplaying is here (it's a bit short):

She stopped and looked towards the dead body, but she wasn't disgusted or horrified from the sight.
"It probably was killed by the murderer, I don't recognize the wolf though..." she came up close towards the body, sniffing it a few times. "Yep, I think it's a loner, he didn't know of all the deaths around here...."

You will get the hang of roleplaying soon. It's just basically taking on the role of a character and acting as them, explaining how you feel and what you're doing n' stuff.

Hope this helps! ^^

Oh! Don't worry, I have been there as well! It's okay, you are not alone with this.
Roleplaying requires an imagination. It's just like talking, but with reason.
Some roleplays want to be literate(this means to use proper grammar and spell things right) and some are semi-literate(or semi-lit) which means you don't have to be perfect.
A/an roleplaying(rp) sample means you need to give an example of your roleplaying "skills" or just to see what your style is. This is usually for those literate ones as I mentioned earlier.
So, I hoped this helped. I am just going by the information I've heard over the years.
stinky dog coming through, don't mind me!

Oh, it is alright, hun! ^.^ We all been true this! ^.^

Anyways, basicaly do what others mentioned.

For explanations.

RP - Role-Play

RP Sample - Role-Play Sample

OOC - Out of Character

IC - In Character

Literate - People who use propper grammar and speak with no mistakes. They will ask you for a RP Sample, before you join and all.
They are Considered the type of people, who can type pretty fast, without any mistakes in there posts.
Also, their posts may seem like 6-8 lines, maybe more. But, they use a lot of words!
P. S. They make their posts very detailed!

Semi-Literate - People who don't speak pretty well in english or do talk, but with some mistakes.
They do not take RP Samples, maybe rarely.
They are Considered the type of people, who can not type very fast, with some mistakes in there posts.
Also, their posts are like 4-6 lines, maybe more. But, they do not use as much of words, as Literates would!

Illiterate - While, this word may seem harsh for others, it is not ment for insult.
They do not take RP Samples and will accept anyone!
They are Considered the type of people, who can not type very fast, with mistakes in there posts.
Also, their posts are like 1-2 lines, maybe more. But they do not use as much as words as Literates or Semi-Literates would!

Literate and Realistic - This means that these people use propper grammar with no mistakes and RolePlay Realisticly!

Semi-Literate and Realistic - This means that these people use not so propper grammar and with mistakes.
But they do try to RolePlay Realisticly.

Group - It means people who have a Leader, A Next In-Line and so on.

Pack - Basically, the people who RolePlay as Wolves and such.

Pride - Only used for Lions.

Clan - Warrior Cats Clan. Group.

For example of how the Literates Role-Play -

The rather large gray wolf, stood up from the solid, but dried grass terrain, that rather seemed cold.
The male turned his gaze towards the entrance and walked out.
The warm rays of the sun, attached to his gray pelt, making it rather visibly white.
The male, turned his gaze towards the Alpha's den, before looking at the elk carcass that was already eaten by the alpha itself.
The male looked around, before his gaze stopped on the carcass. He placed his paws on the grassy terrain, before moving in closer.
He bent down to the carcass, before snatching some meat and starting to crunch it in his mouth, slowly and calmly.
He bent once more, before he continued on eating the carcass.

Example of how the Semi-Literates Role-Play -

The male stood up from the ground that he was lying on and walked outside of his den.
He saw the sun over the hills and turned over to see a carcass on the ground.
He walked closer and started eating it.
He finished and started to walk away.

Example of how the Illiterates Role-Play -

Listen to these people majita.

Roleplaying can be very simple and extremely fun.


Roleplay samples, you just show an example of how you Roleplay, like this: Neeya trotted along the banks of the river, her tail and head held high, a goofy smile on her face. She let out a  happy yip, and started running alongside the river, trying to outrun the currents, her small paws moving rapidly.


See? Simple and easy.

And you can Roleplay however you want, but a small warning: Not a lot of people like Text-Speak. And not everyone will like the way you Roleplay. But you just have to Roleplay in your own style.
 
As for RolePlay GROUPS.....

There's so many.....

Lion Prides, Hyena Cackles, Warrior Cat Clans, Wolf Packs, Elemental Groups, Dragon Groups...... The list is practically endless!

There are many choices, and you'll have loads of fun!
