Fantasy

Fantasy has a special meaning when applied to Roleplaying Games (after all, all roleplaying is fantasizing, right?). The Fantasy in Fantasy Roleplaying Games refers to what is sometimes called High Fantasy, or Swords and Sorcery - elves, dwarves, dragons, wizards, a more-or-less medieval or ancient setting. Not all of these games have all of these things. Dungeons and Dragons, the first Roleplaying Game, is the classic example.
