Long Description:
Emergence is a process of consciously engaging in our own transformation. In this session, participants will explore how TTRPGs create unique opportunities for transformation in educational, professional, and personal contexts. Drawing on concepts from emergence coaching, this workshop examines how character creation and collaborative storytelling in TTRPGs mirror real-life development. Participants will first be introduced to the essential elements of transformation and explore how TTRPGs can be implemented for this purpose. In the second half, attendees will engage in a collaborative activity in small groups, designing a game setting and characters, focusing on opportunities for transformative play. By the session’s end, participants will leave with actionable strategies to integrate TTRPG-inspired practices into their own work, whether as educators, coaches, or creative facilitators.
