Player characters are the avatars or personas that players control in a game. They represent the player's choices and actions within the game world, allowing for personal expression and engagement with the storyline. Each player character typically has unique attributes, skills, and abilities that influence gameplay. In many games, player characters can be customized, enabling players to alter their appearance, abilities, and backgrounds. This customization enhances the gaming experience by allowing players to create a character that reflects their preferences and play style. Player characters often interact with non-player characters and the environment, driving the narrative forward.
