[QUOTE="crazy_monkey1956, post: 3562380, member: 49514"] An experiment I've always wanted to try, but don't have the resources to do, would be to use an RPG as a team building exercise in a job-environment. Twist the role of the RPG a bit so that, in addition to being a fun hobby, it could have a broader usage in other areas of life. How that applies to this situation is that a role-playing session, if taken from a slightly different angle, can serve purposes other than what is was originally designed for. Player X has an opportunity here to broaden her horizons, possibly with the encouragment of the other players. As a team-building exercise, the other players can brainstorm ways to help her in situations she finds awkward and possibly embarassing. A post above mentions that they would rather their game not become a therapy session, and I can certainly understand. Still, it would be interesting to stretch the limits of what an RPG can accomplish. [/QUOTE]
