Ep.133 - Helping Players Roleplay
This week we’re setting out to help Dungeon Masters who are trying to bring their players into the promised land known as Roleplay. For some, it may be the epitome of cringe. But that’s because they’re imagining a forced roleplay encounter during a corporate sales meeting. We, of course, refer to the art of portraying another person, of mastering empathy through acting, of collaborating with confidence.
