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!
"Hello! we would like to tell you about our savior, Billy." A jumpers cult has arisen. Are you one of Billy's chosen, or fiercely against his beliefs? Soon it will be time to choose a side!
Superheroes. You were supposed to save the people of your city. But now it looks like you won't be able to save yourself. Diceless, numberless horror.
Description:
When you became a superhero, it seemed like your greatest dream had come true. You thought you were the invincible bastions of hope that villains would fear and normal people would cheer for. You thought that your destiny was to save the people of your fair city. But tonight, it seems like you won't even be able to save yourselves. Diceless, numberless horror. Bring your steady hand. Players must cooperate to sustain a horrific atmosphere.
You have been requested by the computer to report to the RCDC to be transported to your previous clone's mission. You smile & report as "requested." (Why does it look like a huge clone cannon?)
