Fictional Committees in Model UN

A fictional committee is set in an invented world from a book, film or myth, and each delegate plays one of its characters. The story's rules replace real-world facts: wizards can debate relations with Muggles, and Greek gods can be tasked with solving climate change. Some run as crisis committees, with a backroom that keeps adding problems to the story.
