  One of my favorite chars I ever played on a Mush was a healer and 
and innkeeper. Now she got plenty of  RP but she certainly didn't go 
adventuring, though she had adventures brought to her. I'd be playing 
her still likely if the mush didn't close 4 years ago. I think you 
will find among RPers that the percentage of people willing to play 
non-combat roles is much higher.
