Now I will be honest this is coming from a noob's perspective but I have been reading and am trying to gain more understanding on how in game role playing works. I have been hearing the reference to scenes. Does this mean most things are scripted out beforehand, or is it simply the word used to describe an event in the happening? When I think of role play  (remember this is from someone with little to no experience ) I think of a living character in a living world. I think of it as something that is not scripted but as a character living in the world, making friendships, experiencing losses, etc. When I think of a scripted scene it sounds emotionless and sort of robotic. I am not sure if my words are describing exactly what I mean but I guess what I am trying to say is when I think of role play I think of something more freeing, another life adapting to his or her environments and situations. Is there anyone else who feels this way? Perhaps someone could clear this up for me.
