Hello there, welcome to the RPC! Since they've chimed in about the character, as someone who also transitioned from forum RP to MMO RP, I wanted to give my two cents there!
The best I could say is that when game graphics don't actually match the scene or fit how someone/something looks, do what you would do in forum RP anyway: ignore the graphics and just picture the RP scene in your head. Use your words to describe how your character or scene differs from what your RP partners are seeing in game.
MMO RP is short and quick. Don't feel bad about writing short posts in game or posts that aren't rich in detail. Most people will not be happy to wait 30 - 60 minutes, even if it's to produce a big and meaningful post. If you RP privately with someone who also favors para-RP, though, you can write longer posts with them. I just wouldn't advise it for RP's in public places with a lot of people around, RP's involving multiple people, or RP's with people who do shorter posts.
You are actually able to copy and paste text in this game! That being said, you can type out your posts somewhere else (like Microsoft Word or Wordpad), spellcheck them, and then copy and paste them in game!
