In character, shortened IC, is a roleplaying term. Whenever you are roleplaying, you are "in character", meaning you act as your character would in that situation. Behaving as you, the player, normally would is termed out of character, or OOC. Out of character comments are frequently marked by using the emote chat system. In character: Mina glares at Throg.

In Character (IC) is when a player is playing/acting/talking from his/her character's point of view. In character interaction is the core purpose of roleplaying but the term "in character" and the abbreviation "IC" are generally and most commonly used to refer to speech emerging from a character through his/her view point. In character speech is regulated by the RP Realm Policy, which clearly states that all communication in /say, /yell and /party chat is to be in character at all times. Unfortunately for these rules, party chat is most often used as out of character chat for obvious reasons (see OOC). Fortunately for the players using it so, game masters do not actively police this chat for violations. To be In Character (or IC) means that someone is role-playing a person other than themselves. If a player is in character, they won't necessarily react to things in the same way as they would as a person in the real world, nor will they necessarily be aware of all aspects of a situation. For example: you, John, are playing your character "Hannibal". It turns out that the man you love has a crush on the King, and only got closer to you in order to gain access to the court. You, John, might have read in the forum the secret diary of your beloved one, but Hannibal hasn't. Therefore, Hannibal's reactions to the situation will be directed by the knowledge available to the character, not by the overview John has of the whole thing. Side comments, conspiracies over messenger, or discussions over things that belong to the real world are considered out of character. "In character" (often abbreviated IC) means a character behaving in accordance with their established characterization. Canon characters are only in-character if their behavior jives with what is known about their personality in canon; this is seen in the canonical work itself and in goodfic. Any deviation from a canon character's established characterization renders them out of character, or OOC. The extent to which a canonical is IC or OOC can be determined with a Canon Analysis Device or a litmus strip. "IC" is not to be confused with the other IC, a rarely used acronym for the Department of Implausible Crossovers. In character, shortened IC, is a roleplaying term.

Out of character: Mina says: (( LOL )) In roleplaying games, In Character (or IC) refers to the world of the characters, rather than the world of the players. That is, a character talking to another character is an IC interaction, set within the IC world, while two players talking about a football game or their real lives is an Out of Character (OOC) interaction. Most online role-playing communities make allowances for the intrusion of "RL" (real life) by introducing standards of communication, such as insisting that all "OOC" comments are placed inside brackets, or given some prefix. For example, "(OOC) Blast, the phone's ringing again, I'll go and pull it out of the wall." In addition to this very clear distinction between real world and fictional world, IC and OOC are used to refer to more subtle distinctions as well. Dedicated roleplayers are known for pouring themselves into their characters much as actors might. In this subtler context, a character's action, while prima facie valid (i.e. not flatly contradicting the setting) might seem to poorly portray a character. Thus, IC and OOC are basic concepts for roleplaying, and complaints/praises about player behaviour will often employ them. For example, "That was funny, but not really in character." (This would suggest that the action in question was not something the character would have likely done; rather, the player of that character is being criticized for trying to get laughs by breaching realism.) In character (or IC for short) is a term used in e-wrestling and roleplaying in general to refer to writing or behaviour which is 'as part of the game'. For example, a roleplay, on-card segment, trash-talk or match is in character. The opposite of this is out of character, which is behaviour which is as a handler, and not as the e-wrestler or other character you are portraying. In Character (often abbreviated IC) means a character behaving as he should. Canon characters are only in character if their personalities merge with what is known about a certain canon; this is found in the canonical world itself and in good fanfiction. Any deviation from this renders the canonical OOC, or out of character.
