Running a game today. It's new, I'm not prepared, and I *am* feeling awful because of my body's complete inability to handle seasonal changes. I don't understand why a drop in temp should make my allergies go haywire like this, but it does. Every year.

Considering backing out, but...it sounds so fun. And if I'm gonna feel gross anyway, might as well feel gross while having fun with friends?

@zephasaurus_hex When I feel like that I create a bullet list of things the I want the players to learn the session and try and have as much of an RP driven session as possible. Dicking around town or encouraging player to player interactions.
@Tyson_NW That works. It's a superhero high school game and it's the first session. Thinking of having an in-house game group creation session, like it's their first day as first year students and they've been placed in a core group together and have to introduce themselves and define their goals as a group.
