So, the secrets out. I'm a roleplayer (no sniggering at the back please)
I generally do Loren Trust live action, and UK Masquerade live action vampire. Plus table top Cthulhu, Mage, SLA, InNomine (not all at once) and the odd bit of AD&D. Geeks unite! Any one else like to own up? bel. -------------------- Grass is taking over the world. Have you noticed it’s everywhere?

I used to play white wolf changeling and garou in Reading in the UK but stopped about three years ago due to trains being a b**ch and more OOC politics than the average vampire court! I do still create characters though when I am bored. It is because of changeling that my faerie obseesion became just that!

 I could have written a short novel by this point Group: Established Members Posts: 1,959 Joined: 12-May 04 From: Victoria B.C. Member No.: 1,112 Gender: Female |
Ran wild around the University of Victoria campus one evening with a live action version of cyberpunk. Many, many moons ago.
Nowadays, when I game, I game with dice and table. I've tried different games and I find it depends on group and gamemaster how enjoyable a time is had. Did that last sentence make any sense at all?

*raises a tentative hand*
I playWhite Wolf Vampire live action whenever I get dragged along by my mates and am at home (which is annoyingly not very often), quite a bit of table top stuff too. I need to hurry up and get a proper net connection so I can convince people to play MSN/IRC based roleplay games more often. -------------------- I am Candice's asw emo e-husband, real life actual husband and all around awesome person, Funked)Out_Frogg's e-paramour.

*bump*
Very quickly, my friends got me into larping pretty hardcore. We're doing Star Wars RPG, because we all love Star Wars. THat's like double the nerdiness, I know, but it's fun. My character is a 28-year-old kahjiit named Jaeger Andross. He was born on the planet Asaenga, but during the Mandelorian wars, he and his family left for Tatooine. His race is Force-sensitive to begin with and the presence of the Jedi helped him to begin understanding the Force (or "Spirits") more. His weapons are his claws and a lightsaber he found off of a fallen Jedi. Right now, our campaign is taking place in the Old Republic on Tatooine where I am teaming up with my tech specialist friend, a pair of Jedi and a Twi'let noblewoman to check out some shadiness going down with the Huts. I'm such a geek. *hides* -------------------- With every breath...and all that I am...I will make a stand...until the end. |

Ah, don't worry, we're all geeks here. I don't larp, but I was in this Mordor treasure hunt thread online for a while until some power-hungry b**ch tried to take over the thread. Very Mary-Sue. Long blonde hair, special thief skills, wanted to steer the boat even though my character was the pilot and it would be a stupid thing to do in the context of the thread anyway. Curse these Mary Sue drama queens..... Now I just hang out here and watch pointless animations all over the place.

I've been invited to a vampire LARP in Raleigh by a friend. I would go, but I don't feel like running around pretending. I'd rather do that through text.
Also, it means going outside. *hiss* |

We don't use costumes, actually, however some of us really get into it. I have an accent that is a cross between a bad Irish accent and a bad eastern European accent and I got really into it during a battle with some Sith.
My GM is the biggest twat, though. He had my arm lobbed off and replaced with a robotic one. THe thing is that my kind shuns technology and he won't let me get a faux fur covering because he says it's "too expensive" though he never gives me a price. Now I'm indebted to a Jedi whom I distrust with a padawan I hate. -------------------- With every breath...and all that I am...I will make a stand...until the end. |
