Gaming Tips

Tips for Players
Remember that you, the player, know things that your character does not. Keep IC (in character) and OOC (out of character) information separate. Be careful not to let your character act on OOC information.

Tips for GameMasters
Allow Change - Let players change merits and flaws during a campaign, as their characters develop. Players should be able to work towards resolving a flaw, or gain a new one if something traumatic happens.

From the RPG Glossary...
Meeples - Abbreviation for "my people", any pawn or figure in a game, especially anthropomorphic playing pieces; originates from Alison Hansel and the game Carcassonne.

You Might Be A Gamer If...

Gamer To Avoid
The Psycho - His character has no regard for others and feels that the normal rules of society don't apply to him. How dare those police try to arrest him for stealing a car?!
