Didn't you know that if too many Gypsies collect in one place, the Apocalypse is guaranteed to happen? It's like a black hole, sucking the rest of the world down to the depths of nothingness. You wouldn't want to destroy the world, would you?
Well first off: it's not an Apocalypse that happens. It is more of a "you people couldn't understand it, so I won't bother telling you". I can't argue about the black hole part- because the last time a big group of Gypsies got together I can't remember what happened, or I was sworn to secrecy, or I was too intoxicated, or I am evil, or I was conspiring to overthrow the world, or I was sworn to secrecy, intoxicated, evil, and conspiring to overthrow the world.
As Barry, being evil- I wouldn't really mind destroying the world.
As far as gypsy camp goes.... There is a master plan to put in place a gypsy camp. The beginnings of which will occur this event (in the official gypsy cabin), but will move out to the official "gypsy camp" as things get warmer. I have located a large period canvas tent and will go about putting it up probably at the April event (when it's warmer).
Being gypsy means color, so a variety of wall hangings are always welcome, along with some more subtle lighting for the cabin. There are no specific items needed for a good camp, but some ideas that I have not yet attained:
1- period drinking cups (Daryl has some neat metal drinking cups)
2- wall hangings
3- rugs / carpet. (sometimes you can find garrish & colorful ones at thrift stores for really cheap)
4- period social & board games. There are some useful games out there that can be converted to NERO games (fun for playing with your IG family & friends). Fun for downtime and to play while you laugh at the screaming gaje.
5- food. A good gypsy always brings some extra food for the camp. We are hospitable and like good times. Bring a favorite dish or make a batch of cookies.
Pretty much anything to help create a fun ingame camp is needed.
I think it goes to say- that if people who play bring one or two items each for a cabin / camp they stay in (gypsy or gaje)- it can add to the atmosphere of the game fairly quick.
