OOC
Recentering is an OOC technique. The GM might do it occasionally throughout a session. Furthermore, a player can suggest it, on voice or via a Discord private message.
Recentering starts when the GM says, "Let's recenter."
The table stays silent for about 1 minute. You can do any of the following:
- Just breathe.
- Review your personal notes and/or write new personal notes.
- Type things to send in the chat but don't push Enter.
- Turn off your camera.
You're encouraged to think about:
- The team's goals
- Your PC's personal goals (e.g., how you're trying grow and how that fits with the current mission or challenge)
- Role-playing opportunities (e.g., type a short pose but don't push Enter)
- Any questions (IC and/or OOC)
- Body scan (i.e., how you're feeling physically and emotionally, including comfort, hunger, and thirst)
When in doubt, you can type a short pose expressing your PC's physical, mental, and/or emotional status, but don't push Enter.
Once the GM starts talking again, the players can also talk. At that time, you can push Enter to send anything you've typed.
