Impersonation
Impersonation allows role-players to adopt any persona, engage in interactions from multiple viewpoints, and access their inboxes. You can customise the setup so that all players, selected individuals, or specific role-players can impersonate during the exercise.

Add dynamic and realistic content produced on the spot by players or role-players, posting on behalf of the personas of your scenario
give in-world feedback live to your players
Impersonation of multiple personas (as many as decided by scenario creator)

Select which positions has impersonation permissions or assign all Positions to edit and impersonate available personas
Using Impersonation to Facilitate Communication
Impersonation can be an effective tool for enhancing communication during the exercise. You might encourage participants to discuss topics tied to your specific training objectives.
For example, if the key objectives in my exercise were to ensure that the TA communicate effectively, this might involve actions such as developing a plan, establishing common goals, and clarifying the situation. When impersonating, prompts to guide participants to engage in meaningful conversations may include the following:
"What steps do we need to take to move forward effectively?"
"What resources do we need to implement this plan successfully?"
"What challenges are we facing right now that we need to address?"
"Are there any key pieces of information we might be missing that could impact our decisions?"
