    The players are of a different status, but wide does the status gap go?

    Setup and Format

    • 2 players

    The two players start a scene, perhaps from a prompt. As the scene progresses, one player should gradually beomce higher status, and the other become lower status. Push the exaggeration of status as far as possible, until the scene cannot continue.

    Learning Objectives

    This pushes the limits of what players think about high and low status. It's often the case it's much further than you think.

    Tips

    • Seeing a character start high status, but start a slide down into lower is fun to watch!
