Some ideas may help.
I have often found role-playing a great way to explore how it might feel to be somethin/someone we can't be in real life. For example: when I created the original Gypsy character for Shadowrun, the background was a male circus performer who had come to the end of a relationship with his partner. He was leaving the circus and having to leave his daughter behind. Never been a father, never likely to be
Anyway a tound teenager wanted to play in our game and the GM had the great idea of getting her to play my daughter. What an emotional rollercoaster. How much guilt and anguish Gypsy went through. But I did develop a strong bond with that character - hence taking the name for my handle online.
So anyone want to explore what it might be like to be another person in unlikely circumstances? Or to explore a moral dilemma? Or to play out a role they have always wanted from books or film?
