What is a "player character"?
A player character is a character in a game that is directly controlled by the player. This character is the player's avatar within the game world and is typically the main character through which the player interacts with the game's story, environment, and mechanics. Player characters often have customizable traits, such as appearance, skills, or abilities, depending on the game. The choices made by the player for their character can affect the progression of the game, making the player character an essential part of the player's experience.
