E007 - Roleplaying - WTF is Roleplaying?

Different people roleplay in different ways, but it’s surprising how often these three Dungeon Masters manage to agree on most of the issues. While discussing mentalities on how to create a character, the panel discusses whether or not mechanics are more important than character archetypes, and when you may want to shift your thinking. When the conversation turns to multiclassing, Dan leads the conversation in how roleplaying can affect mechanics and vice versa. When they address voices and props and methods to express your characters, Adam addresses a problem he has with some expectations thrust upon one class in particular. The discussion touches briefly on music, and then moves into pacing and midweek content. Terry finishes up by talking about how it’s not necessary to run quickly from combat to combat, and if the journey is important, then slow down and live in the moment as the character.
