How can we go beyond the Femme Fatale in crafting female characters with a touch of villainy about them? We'll talk at length about cool women in RPGs who are neither good nor evil.
Learn the basics of improv comedy & how the principles can make for better role playing. Half discussion, half workshop, we’ll play some improv games to show you how!
Does the unexpected give you cold sweats? Players want to go off the rails? This seminar will give you the tools you need to be more comfortable improvising and make your games more dynamic.
Description:
Improvising while GMing a game is a skill many people think they will never have. The Gamer Assembly is here to show you that not only can you improvise - you already do, you just might not realize it! We will discuss the keys to good improvisation and how doing it more often can really take your games to the next level. Maybe even Epic Level! It won't be all talk either. Several improvisation games and skill builders will be taught and used! The Gamer Assembly panels are always interactive. The seminar wall between presenter and participants is torn down as we explore these topics together. With the speaker acting as moderator and guide through these topics, you're sure to learn a lot!
