There are no limits.
Say it again: there are no limits.
There are no pre-defined roles. There are no set rules. There are no concrete backdrops. There is only what you, your mind, can will.
Role-playing is nothing more than writing a story, and acting it out. It can be as simple and light, or as deep and involving, as you want it to be. There are no rules, no boundaries, no beginnings or ends. Be what you want. That is what role-playing is all about.
You don't need an English degree (and, let's face it, you practically need one just to play D&D ;)), nor an extensive, multi-decade background in PnP RPGs. All you need is an imagination and time. Spin the web of the world, for it is yours to weave as you wish.
Good luck in all your endeavors. Mayhap you shall find more than you set out with along the way.
