What is an out of character thing you have done?

Honestly, when I read this prompt, I’m taking it to mean something along the lines of acting out of the norm in your day-to-day life. Like, you made a choice to do or say something that doesn’t make sense for who you really are.

That being said, I don’t recall any times like that!

I do recall, however, several times where I’ve had to act “out of character” because I was playing a game involving improv. Specifically, Dungeons & Dragons, because for some reason I decided to play a goblin artificer character and one of my buddy’s ended up playing my goblin brother. I’m not shy or averse to doing voices, and I think I do a rather okay imitation of a goblin from the game Warcraft 3, so the two of us did our best goblin voices anytime we felt the need to act IN character which itself was something that felt out of character for me!

So, I didn’t do the goblin voice acting often, and sadly that particular campaign made it maybe two or three sessions before the DM decided they had other priorities and gave up (and this was the third time they had done this to us, so we stopped letting them run campaigns, which further led to us never speaking to him again, but for several reasons beyond just the game).

Acting is a tough gig, and voice acting is nothing to sneeze at, either.
