![]() ![]() If marginalized populations are not looking for representations in the media according to Adrienne Shaw, it is often because when these representations are present, they are only caricatures and it is up to the content producers to take in charge the representation issue by offering more diversity. By choosing to travel, meet and interview game developers with a queer, feminist and decolonial focus, I wanted to go to the edge of the margins, to hear and make heard voices from the margins of their society in Global South countries. In 2019, I embarked in an Art & Games World Tour in order to decentralize myself and my curatorial and artistic practices to promote voices and creations that have been placed on the margins of the hegemonic West. ![]() We use these insights in order to speculate about possible design directions for further development of a GM’s We also compare the results of these interviews to online advice for GMing the module. From these interviews, we collected insights into how the GMing process works within the context of a specific scenario and found which features GMs liked and what could be improved with our digital prototype. We interview GMs about their process in preparing for and running a beginner TTRPG module, "Lost Mine of Phandelver", and present to them a prototype of a computational tool built based on this module that has some of the features we believe would be useful in a GMing assistant, such as consolidating information for easier reference, serving as a brainstorming tool for GMs, and helping GMs keep track of what has happened in the game world. In this paper, we look at how we can inform the design of computational tools for GMs through the use of qualitative interviews. In running tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs), game masters (GMs) are tasked with helping create and facilitate the building of a shared story between players based on player choices.
