You certainly won't be looked down upon when formulating a message in roleplaying terms.
Myself, I find people who send me game Messages in roleplaying-speak a bit scary. I have absolutely no interest in pretending I am an Vampire. I don't play Dom2 to "immerse" myself in a fantasy world - I play because it is a challenging strategy game.

Each their own playing style.

Dominions 2 isnt the easiest game to roleplay in for the reasons stated above, but in my opinion it makes the game more fun to play rather than treating it a series of mathmatical equations.

Mission accomplished. Lesser being quakes in fear. Nervousness good for gaining diplomatic advantage.

No really, what's that? You don't want to pretend you are a Vampire? Not even secretly, deep inside? More goth comics for you, sir.

But seriously, some of the enjoyment playing Dominions is the fact that my alter ego is a god commanding his faithful in a quest for world domination, bringing the faith with sword and torch in stylish good ole Torquemada fashion. For me, this somehow never gets really old. So getting carried away a bit with Messages in MP is something I really like receiving and dishing out. It's all part of the atmosphere of the game, to me.
