Whether we realize it or not, there are a number of topics that are off limits at the gaming table. Maybe there is an unspoken, unwritten rule about what is ok, maybe there have been "incidents" where a taboo was broken and repercussions were felt.
Both the best and the worst part of this is that what is taboo for one group, won't be taboo for another. Drugs might be an ok topic or theme in with one group, while another may not feel comfortable involving them at all.
This series will cover a variety of general taboos (they may not apply within your own group), how to use them responsibly and respectfully to hopefully great effect. As long as your group is open and, most importantly, on the same page social taboos can make for very deep and defining character moments.
