They can invent ways. I've suggested a few.I have a practical approach to this. If the player isn't going to tell the story then I have a choice to just ignore it and leave nothing but the purely mechanics to tell the story or pick up the slack. The players RP adequately. It is up to THEM how much of it they want to do. I don't set the style of the game any more than they do. This is why a good sandbox works well. You want to have a horror theme? Well, just dance on over here to yon Woods of Terror! Want a nice dungeon crawl? I got JUST the lost dwarf city for you! I agree with this, to the extent that mostly I find there's no need to think about these theoretical things at the table. Still, I feel that talking about them here, and reading things like Vincent Bakers blog post, has improved my GMing and therefore my game.And it's also kind of interesting in it's own right!</blockquote>I guess it must be interesting if we're doing it? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />[/QUOTE]
