Slow landings are typically meditative, and may be accompanied by music and/or the voice of an instructor guiding the transition.<br /> <br /> == Uses ==<br /> The slow landing may be used for purely aesthetic reasons, but is also intended to help players begin [[de-roling]] by providing a private space for thought and reflection. Additionally, it makes it easier for players to form divergent opinions on a larp experience, before the majority opinion can be discerned.<br /> == History and Examples ==<br /> The slow landing was introduced at [[Europa]] where it took the form of a long silent waiting phase as characters gathered and a hypnotic count-down after their arrival. A similar, but briefer landing was used at [[inside:outside]], while [[PanoptiCorp]] ended with each player receiving a memo saying &quot;the game is about to end. Take your time. When you are ready, walk out of the gates and meet the other players.&quot; <br /> [[Category:Techniques]]</div>
