Unlike RPGs, players in Elite Dangerous do not choose their [[Roles|role]] by customising their character. Instead, the choice and customisation of their ship gears it towards specific role(s). Some examples are [[Roles#Trader|Trader]], [[Miner]], [[Roles#Explorer|Explorer]], [[Roles#Bounty Hunter|Bounty Hunter]], [[Smuggler]] and [[Roles#Pirate|Pirate]]. However hybrid roles are possible through emergent gameplay e.g. defensive bounty hunting while trading in a multipurpose vessel, or taking long-range trade missions and exploring systems along the way. | Unlike RPGs, players in Elite Dangerous do not choose their [[Roles|role]] by customising their character.

In order to allow each player to explore each role they are able to own multiple ships and each can be customised to fill a certain role. When not in use a ship is stored in a station and can be retrieved by returning to that station at any time. | In order to allow each player to explore each role they are able to own multiple ships and each can be customised to fill a certain role.
