[QUOTE="nimisgod, post: 856103, member: 10283"] I can remember three such moments though my players are foten more for dramatic speeches than moments of RP experience: One of those moments was when the party was trying to put the rest the ghosts of two women, both abandoned by the same man. It was a tragic love story that left them to wander the ruins of their home and I believe the players really took that part of the adventure to heart. It took me hours before to synchronize the music and the speech into one whole. You could just feel the emotion in the room. I just couldn't break it... Another time, a player let a vampire girl feed off of him before he granted her eternal rest. We had a bit of LARPing to heighten the tension too. Finally (and probbly my best), was when I was playing an NPC who had to endure great pain (and risk death) to guard one particular holy place. I had identified with the pain and frustration so well that I actually felt nauseous and pained by the end of the character's speech. I'm not sure if the players noticed, but that point was the pinnacle of the RP experience. Good times... [/QUOTE]
