Role play is a type of fantasy play that focuses on the dynamic between participants in a fictional scenario. The roles and scenarios can vary greatly, from pretend scenarios to enacting real-life situations. Often, there is a power imbalance between a Bottom and Top. Pup and kitten play aims to create a deep emotional connection between the owner/master and submissive/pet. The dom may demand unconditional love and obedience, and also train their pet to be more emotionally perceptive and empathic, providing a sense of safety and security in the relationship. In more extreme cases, role play can include CNC (Consensual Non-Consent), rape play, abduction play, and other edge scenarios, but these involve additional risks.
