Words and Songs of the Soul

On the first Saturday of each month, there's a World of Darkness LARP run at the University of Auckland using the new MET rules. It's something that I have a lot of fun playing in, but very nearly didn't go to last night due to lack of energy and crappy weather. Joel (bless him) and his wife Lorraine (bless her) gave me a lift in with a guaranteed lift home.

And I am so pleased I went.

I had little idea as to what I was going to be able to do. Turns out things happened around me that required my attention. Also an opportunity arose to have a (very minor) influence in the status of the city. And somehow... I managed to gain a point of status myself! *grins* Pity it's the last game that I can play in for a few months.... but that's how things unfold sometimes.

But all in all - very pleased I went.

The Hindenburgh is Phat!

Please to put a new soul in the GM’s trap.

If you haven’t got a penny then a massive bribe will do...

If you haven’t got a massive bribe, Chthulu eats you!

The details are just about finalised. Anyone want to help me kick this bad boy around and see if it goes ZAP! when it fires; curses when it misses and whirrs as it takes aim?

I need game testers.

Well... I put the word out that I was thinking of pulling together a victorian era steampunk game. And lo, a great many words came back along the lines of  "Yes please", "I'm in", "HELL YES!" and "If you're just teasing me with this, I am going to kill you."

So, in the spirit of fairness and all things enjoyable... and the fact I like living... I am pleased to announce that the one off game of Britannica Pages is now being created.

With 5 playable races - Humans, Trolls, Dwarves, Elves and Half Fae (Seelie and Unseelie), it is a world where Magic and Mad Science live alongside status and class in a strange mix. Now I was going to use the rules for Victoriana, but due to a sheer lack of time, I've decided to pull together the game myself.

Now, to answer some questions that have already cropped up.
So there you are. That's what's there for the moment. Any help with the nudging of the game system is appreciated, because the sooner I can issue the rules and setting for people to start pouring over.

Let the insanity begin!

Hehhehheh
