    Fellow scroll users

    I created something called an Artisan's Combat Rod. A simple plumbing plastic pipe that kept 4 frequently used combat scrolls and two different potions with a dozen 'vials' each.

    Dryad help

    I knew a barkskin that used oak leaf garland. And she'd use different garland depending upon the season.

    Event Structure

    Once ran a larp without a big battle mod Saturday Night. The players didn't know how to deal with it. Kept watches up all night because they knew there HAD to be a big battle coming.

    Dryad help

    Depends on the dryad type you're playing. When I played a reed dryad, I got myself some nettinng and faux seaweed. Then I looked up bamboo placemats as well as the thin bamboo reed style fencing.

    [.11] Weapon/Armor Duration (split from Packet Color Thread)

    Our rules, like a lot of other rules, are about how us as players can interact with one another and other things in the game world in a way we all agree to and what the effects/consequences of those actions are. So they're explicit about it so that everyone plays fair and safely. We have a...

    [.11] Weapon/Armor Duration (split from Packet Color Thread)

    No one is ever 'taken out of game' during a game. You may not be able to fight, to move or to speak but you're not out of the game. Now if we're saying that at Alliance game=combat, then yes, that happens. But I have been in multiple battles where I never swung a single blow and yet was (at...

    [.11] Weapon/Armor Duration (split from Packet Color Thread)

    The question, as always, is what it the objective of the mechanic of the game? And these need to be answered before going forward with the solution to carry it out. To make play easier? To add immersive elements into it? To give other people who aren't straight up combatants another facet to...

    [.11] Remove required packet colors?

    I should note I've been playing the game since 1992 so I've seen the changes over the years. Back when it was an unwritten policy that earth spells were green packets, celestial was blue, necromancy was red and alchemy was still orange. And before that, spell packets were made of corn starch...

    [.11] Remove required packet colors?

    I suppose the question is why were colors put forth in the first place and is that reason still a valid one? To me, the only thing I could see is to define what type of cauliflower hand the person was holding so that you could tell if they were casters or alchemists. Also (unless I have the...

    [.11] Trap Triggers

    I'm not sure how that is any different than the description of the clothespin with two thumb tacks in it that is in the rulebook - other than it taking half a minute for the clothespin to snap shut. A person sees the tripwire, follows it back to the pin, sees that the pin is holding something...

    plastic potion bottles

    Muir, you forgot to divide the diameter in half before doing your calculations as it is radius squared for the volume of a cylinder. And if we wanted to go crazy with technicalities, that is the space that the bottle takes up (roughly .66 cu/in) , depending upon the thickness of the glass, the...

    plastic potion bottles

    I will measure one of the half ounce bottles below tomorrow (will be near the Taps Plastic in my area) but I think that they're a little bit bigger than the ones you posted. If you could measure how tall and wide your actual bottles are, it will help. I have an ounce bottle and it measures 2"...

    [.11] Armor Enchanments

    I agree with Tieran and believe to avoid this issue, there should be something included under the armor description in the rulebook working like a refit - such as: "In order to receive the benefits of a new armor tag, you must spend 60 seconds role playing putting on a new suit of armor. A...

    MWE head armor

    You could commission someone to make you a leather helm that will fit around your horns and ears. It would be a little pricey more than likely See about finding a leather crafter in your area (check the Society for Creative Anachronisms) or ask around your local chapter. I did something...

    plastic potion bottles

    Check out a Taps Plastic as they have an assortment of bottles - although most of them are not clear but milky colored. They come with screw on tops but you can cut those off and put a piece of cork in the hole instead. Another option is to find out how much liquid the bottles hold and then do...

    I have an extra gallon of Black ATM but I think I can swing by and pick up a gallon of untinted.

    As for the gallon of liquid latex - are you looking for thick latex, the type you use to make masks and weapons with or are you looking for the thin latex - the type you use to apply prosthetics? Also, does color matter? I usually color all of mine black when I get it.
