PERP (Player Exertion Rating and Perception)

PERP (Player Exertion Rating and Perception) is a framework used in tabletop gaming or role-playing contexts to measure a player's physical effort and sensory awareness during gameplay. It helps Dungeon Masters or game facilitators understand how engaged and alert a player is by tracking their physical activity, such as movement or gestures, and their perception, like noticing details or reacting to clues. This system ensures that players' physical and perceptual inputs are considered, promoting more immersive and dynamic experiences, and allowing for better adjustments to gameplay based on individual engagement levels.
