So the opener is barely two weeks away and to be honest, my head is about ready to explode with the countless thoughts of what my very first LARP experience will be.
Just a few of the many, many things that are bouncing around in my skull.....
- When I get there, where do I go, where do I park, who do I talk to?
- What kind of character will I be playing? What will be my costume/make-up? What kind of weapon(s) will I wield?
- How long does the first evening's game go on for? Sleep??? Where, when?
- How many PCs and NPCs will be there?
- Food. Where do I get nourishment and how much will it cost?
- What if I need to use the bathroom, make a phone call, or have a cigarette (yes...I smoke, I am ashamed to say)?
- What happens if I forget what to do, forget the count on the hit points during a fight, forget what I "need" to do?
- Can I carry a backpack or hydration pack?
- How many questions will it take before someone goes, "STFU NOOB!"
I'm sure the whole experience is kept under wraps and the surprise of discovering the whole thing for myself is part of the fun. Still, I was hoping that maybe someone can give me a sort of "preview".
