player characters
Player characters (PCs) are the individuals controlled by players in a game, typically a role-playing game (RPG). They serve as the protagonists through which players explore the game's story, make decisions, and interact with the world. PCs usually have unique attributes like skills, abilities, and backgrounds that influence gameplay. Players shape their characters' actions and development, creating a personalized experience within the game's framework. In essence, PC’s are the virtual personas players embody to participate actively in the game's narrative and mechanics.
