- Abstract
Various Articles -- Teaching different age groups Introduction Ever since we are born, we are surrounded by stories -- our parentsshare fables, family tales and all those adorable once upon a timethere was a girl as naughty as you do you want to know whathappened to her? Jerzy Szeja explains that narrative Role-Playing Game in itscanonical form requires a person leading the game (GM: GameMaster) and at least one player who impersonates a character (PC:Player's Character). RPGs may be compared to children's games where participantsplay different roles (e.g. thieves and police officers), but a GM isthe person who makes all the difference with outlining the world,events and acting out fully interactive characters(NPC: Non-Player Character). Another comparison presents RPG as similar to literature -- wherea player can choose a favourite character from a favourite bookand impersonate them during adventures outlined by a GM whotakes up the role of the narrator.
