What Medium RP is: in plain words

Light, Medium, Hard — what the levels of role-play mean and what to expect from Medium RP on our server.

GuidesNovember 10, 2026

RP (role play) means playing a character rather than yourself: you behave the way that character would. The RP level shows how strictly the server treats this.

Three RP levels

  • Light RP — acting is optional. You can simply play; the rules are soft.
  • Medium RP — acting is required, but without extremes. The golden mean.
  • Hard RP — strict acting in everything, often with application forms, harsh penalties and a high bar to enter.

Medium RP on Kingdom Come RP

We use Medium RP. That means:

  • You keep your role: your character speaks and acts like a resident of Bohemia, 1403.
  • Conflicts start with acting and have a role-play reason.
  • Information from Discord and streams is not used in the game.
  • There is no application form to enter — it is enough to follow the rules.
  • A newcomer will not be banned for a first mistake: they will be told and helped to settle in.

Common newcomer mistakes

  • Metagaming — using in the game what the character could not know. For example, you heard on Discord where a convoy is hidden.
  • Powergaming — acting out the impossible, or not giving another player a chance to respond.
  • Breaking character without need — discussing out-of-game matters in the game.

How to settle in quickly

Watch others, ask questions on Discord and do not be afraid to make mistakes. The full set of rules is in the server rules, and where to start your first evening is in the newcomer guide.

Stay in the loop

We publish new articles, announcements and the server opening date on Discord first.
