'''Bleed''' is a term for the transfer of emotions between player and character. When emotions flow from the player to the character - for example, when inter-character interactions are shaped by the out-of-character relationships between the players - it is known as "bleed in". When they go in the other direction - for example when a player is strongly emotionally affected by in-character events after a game - it is known as "bleed out".
