    Ritual System Update Discussion!

    I don't see wand or magic storm damage being useless against undead at all. Obviously a destruction makes it much sweeter but once the destruction lands the celestial caster (golem or no) is probably stronger offensively than the earth caster (though if your team were all golems the earth caster...

    Ritual System Update Discussion!

    I'd be suspicious of the fighter who said, my character is really a celestial ritualist at heart thanks to these new rules. Taking advantage of rules isn't so hot, unless the new rules can help you better express your character concept. Rather than letting everyone forge, if the owners allowed...

    Character Gender-Bending

    I have a problem with someone not being allowed to play their gender because of their sex. Biology doesn't have to determine gender in real life so why would we force biology to determine gender in game? And we should ask the owners to make it official. There's really no good reason to tell...

    Earth 4-Column

    You know I was telling some people on the east coast that I prefer pyramids for templars. I forget the math but a 987654321 is cheaper than a 4 block by a nice chunk of build, especially for a templar. Everyone said I was crazy.

    Earth 4-Column

    It depends on your team and everything of course. A 4 block templar whose team averages level 30 will need different spells than a 107 build scholar on a team that's level 10. And if you're not on a team then everything changes. But here are my favorite spells from each level: 1. disarm 2...

    Thoughts on the economy

    I think this helps people stay on site and in character. We want lots of alternatives to killing monsters for gold and selling food is one alternative. Plus, we want people to spend money on stuff other than IG magic items.

    Thoughts on the economy

    So are you saying it helps the game if characters spend money on food and stuff but it hurts the game if characters make money selling food?

    Those of Moria, Caldaria, Deadlands, Ashbury and Vandlar::

    Re: Those of Moria, Caldaria, Deadlands, Ashbury and Vandlar Most nobles have far more wealth than I so I doubt a squire making a few gold will become an issue. Come to think of it, your effort to make profit sound heinous disgusts. Gold is an excellent way to measure the worth of a squire...

    Question to sate some insecurity

My job is to help you have a great time at our game.... I can help you with some key decisions: How should I design a fun character? Should I...

    Food coloring for makeup?

    I don't use make up and know next to nothing about costume make up but with make up in general you rarely get what you pay for. Even expensive cosmetics often include terrible things like mineral oil so please don't assume that expensive = better. No shortcuts - check out the ingredients. If i...

    Jackrabbit kin

    A lot of people have been talking about what makes sense for a jackrabbit and that's cool but let's also ask what makes sense for the character. You say you plan to play a rogue. As a rogue you can buy dodges anyway (far cheaper than racial dodge I might add though you do have to buy some...

    Publicity Thread of the week! "What's Your Elevator Pitch?"

    Re: Publicity Thread of the week! "What's Your Elevator Pitc LARP is like tabletop roleplaying except you actually do and say what your character does and says. So instead of saying you stay alert, you actually go for a walk while looking all around you, listening for bad guys, etc. Instead of...

    Physical fitness

    Glad to see some interest here. That tough mudder stuff looks awesome. Also working in your armor is an idea I like too. I have 32 pounds of plate. 20 all-out sprints in that thing is a great workout. Wearing it all day would be problematic though.

    Physical fitness

    I was thinking about adding this to the training thread on this forum but it deserves its own thread. Practicing with boffers, packets, and thinking things through are good ways to get ready for high larp performance, but I want to stress the difference exercise can make in larp and in life...

    Publicity Committee: a Suggestion

    Thank you for the suggestion. We do have at least one video in the works but I don't believe the dracolich is in the plans. Not saying it shouldn't be so we'll see if we can get the drcaolich and our producer together.

    Quicksilver soldier construct questions

    As I accumulate wealth I become interested in creating a few mindless golems. If I were to create a quicksilver soldier, would I need to instruct the thing in which situations it should phase certain attacks? After all, as a mindless creature it could hardly decide on its own. I also see that...

    How to use the toilet

    Probably not that often though I did meet a urinal aficionado when I was in college (a woman). I guess they just made a bunch of signs and put them on every stall door in all the bathrooms. The bottom left is maybe the only one they need since that is exactly how you would use a squat toilet...
