  • 05:1205:12, 10 June 2026 diff hist +1,797‎ N Railroad ‎ Created page with "A '''Railroad''' is used to describe plots in roleplaying games where players experience a series of linear events as set out by the GMs in advance. Due to the complex nature of storytelling and player management for roleplaying games, there is frequently - if not always - some amount of pre-prepared material for player experience, to control for a desired outcome. But when plans are rigid, or enacted in a way that seems to block off alternative pathways..." current

It was developed to enable movement in and out of scenes whilst minimising disruption to play or immersion. To use this signal: # Player 1 shields their eyes with one hand, and walks into or out of the room. # Player 2 (and all other players) continue play as usual. Players who continue play as normal may employ steering techniques to ensure a play..." current

These techniques were developed around 2016 to help answer the question of whether a participant was acting out distress as an expression of their character in-game, or if something in the game had upset them out-of-game. It begins..." current

This might involve consent-based negotiation/play, using other mechanics such as paper-scissors-rock, or comparing character sheets to determine which characters' skills should succeed in a head-on contest. Many larps use self-ad..." current

The GM may make card draws, paper-scissors-rock, or some other mechanic out-of-game to add an element of chance, and then narrate the results and how they affect the player characters and the environment in-game. The assistance of a GM may be intentionally designed as part of the larp experience, or called for by..." current
