Making them Care: Engaging Your Players with the Story

You carefully craft NPCs, towns, and storylines, and then die a little inside when your players and their characters fail to embrace the elements of your adventure you thought they would. Sure, they’re happy to romp through your creation, but they simply don’t seem to want to save the orphan or prevent goblins from rampaging through the adorable village of sentient rabbits you dangled in front of them. Not one of them shed a single tear when the NPC who has joined them for the last six sessions perishes when an arrow-to-the knee ends their story arc. Our GMs will share their thoughts on how to help players become emotionally attached to the story and really invest in your world.
