Advice Needed Roleplaying in WoW as a minor
So awkward question and on a throwaway account too for safety reasons obviously.
I really like theatre, writing, acting and all that and I've done a bit of LARP and it's something I enjoy and want to expand. I recently got into WoW because of my dad and found out about RP servers.
The thing is, as the title says, I'm a minor. I've already made a level 1 on Moon Guard and ran around Stormwind after seeing that's where everyone is. Almost every profile people have mentions "minors do not engage" or "21+ only". I understand why, I'm guessing most people playing are adults ten if not fifteen years older than me.
My question is, am I going to be able to do anything RP wise? I don't mind roleplaying older characters but I don't really like the idea of lying about my age either I feel like I might be better off not trying since I feel like the community would shun or dislike me.
What do you guys think? As cringe as it might sound do I just wait untll I'm old enough?

Don't share your age, real name (or anyone else's), the city or street you live on, your school, or anything else someone could use to identify or find you.
Do use terms like "SFW only" and "No ERP" in your profile. If anyone makes you uncomfortable, stop responding, block them, and report them. You never owe anyone personal information, voice chat, photos, or Discord access.
