The moment Gilthalion walked into the inn during dinner. Also the moment when Gilthalion addressed me as if we had previously met. Also... having dinner on the right hand of royalty. Yeah... that was a pretty fun bit of roleplaying, that meal. also... Trying my best to be pissed off while...

Yeah, but tons of Europeans, particularly the younger generations, speak really good English. You don't get the exclusivity in quite the same way. I think quickly learning something like Toki Pona and playing something primitive(ish) like a kobold or redcap tribe could have tons of weirdly cool...

It's a lot to pull off for a very limited duration one-shot event, though. Maybe with a solid 6 months to a year prep time for "cultural practice"...

Stone elves are a really intimidating race to attempt. High makeup plus a strict roleplaying demeanor means they are going to be rarer than most. The newest HQ campaign, Stormbreak, mentions stone elves a lot in the background source material, but so far I've not seen any PCs playing one at the...

My LARP partner and I have been slowly learning Tolkien based Neo-Sindarin for the Imladari elves (Headquarters chapter; essentially "high elves") that we play, which has been a very rewarding and interesting process, especially as someone who does not learn languages easily. Right now I'm...

Squeaked in the prelogist 4 minutes to midnight!

(This broadsheet can be found posted in the Black Stag) To all Scholars, Researchers, and the Improbably Bored of Fairdale-- The Healer's Guild maintains a private library. Persons interested in perusing the library may do so for a small fee. We have recently exhaustively cataloged the...

I just wanted to give a huge thanks to all the kitchen volunteers this weekend. In particular, all the extra hands getting dinner on the table made a big difference with our serving time. When we try new recipes and things sometimes we run into timing issues, so you folks really helped smooth...

That's fantastic to hear! I'm buying most of the meats Friday afternoon, so I'll adjust accordingly! Thanks for the heads up!

I meant to post this earlier. Apologies for the delay. Thankfully, nobody straight up asked for the menu and made us look really off our game. ;) Heidi and I are primary kitchen staff this event. We're continuing to experiment with menus. Please continue to give us feedback! We do make notes on...

Unless you are a sucker for elaborate designs, the circular shape is the way to go. It keeps the center of mass balanced where your grip is, which makes it the most responsive to move in any direction to intercept a strike, particularly if you rotate your wrist at all when using it, as well as...

Not sure... this seems to be a pretty old thread. I've seen some food ones at work before as promotional materials, and actually have an apple one on my desk as I type this. I'm no weapon marshal, but they're a pretty dense foam. I can say that I wouldn't mind them being thrown at *me*. The...

I went to preregister just now and the link is giving me a 404 Page Not Found error. Down just temporarily, I hope?

I try to keep it classy. I'm in the process of trying to construct something similar to this. A second weapon frog is coming first, but playing around with leather has turned out to be a fun side-skill that the hobby has made me pursue.

Dave Trapasso to play. EDIT: Just finished pre-logisting. Yeah, I'm a procrastinator. Carpooling with Cass Cording and Dave Peek (a new player!)

Edit: nevermind, everything is good here. Nothing to see here, honest.

There seem to be a couple discrepancies between the dates listed here and in the Stormbreak subforum and on the HQ website. Which set(s) are currently accurate?

Another, maybe less obvious partial solution... don't wear your armor constantly! A lot of times you know when you are going into battle, and it's important to suit up. And the rest of the time... you wear less armor, or no armor. You don't need armor when you're having your morning coffee, or...

I use pros-aide for my ears, and it works great. Stays on very well, despite nearly anything that I try to slip over my head tugging at the ears. You don't strictly need a remover for it if you don't mind band-aid levels of pain, but the remover is just isopropyl alcohol anyway. I just use...

I have to disagree. When I first started checking out the rules, back in the NERO days, the read write skill was the thing that most impressed me about the rules of character design. It made me realize that the game designers intended you to step outside of your normal bubble of personal...
