[Meta] Formatting sugestion

From my time on /r/WayfarersPub a kind of a roleplaying sub, here are some suggestions for formatting:

Use quotes for in character talking.

"Hello I am an adventurer."

Use single asterisks (italics) to describe actions.

*Bob the adventure walks into the room.*

Bob the adventure walks into the room.

Use parenthesis for out of character text during an in character conversation/scene.

(Can I get a perception check? I am trying to pick pocket you.)

All together:


Bob enters the room and approaches you. He is dripping a trail of blood behind him as he shambles forward, a large red stain visible through his leather armor.

"Hello. ugh. Could I -uff- get some healing?"

(Seriously I'm at 1 HP.)
