"Learn how intentional character development can make cool shit happen"
Intentional gaming has proven to be a beneficial tool in personal growth and healing. Character development is an important component to intentional gaming and can be accomplished in a variety of ways. In this presentation, we identify how character development can lead to personal growth and healing, review a case summary of two players' personal growth and healing via the characters they played, and hear a GM's perspective on character development. Finally, attendees will get an opportunity to build their own character with intentionality.
Learning Objectives:
- Be able to define intentional gaming and intentional character development.
- Identify the different types of characters a player may choose to design.
- Learn how intentional character development can lead to personal growth and healing.
- Learn how to create a character for personal growth and healing.
