Hi everyone!
My name is Jake, and my home chapter is SoMN. I've started getting into LARP this summer and I can already tell that I'm hooked for life!
I'd love to come down to a Chicago game at some point, but money and scheduling make this a bit difficult for the next few months. But I happen to know that smart people make sure their characters get as much experience as possible in as many chapters as possible. Goblin stamps are per chapter, so I'd have to help out Chicago to get blanketed, which I'm more than happy to do.
Mainly what I feel like I'm good at is writing mods. I've written about 10 this month for SoMN, and I haven't gotten any negative feedback, so I'm going to assume that I'm doing well. I actually have a degree in creative writing and enjoy writing mods immensely. I feel like I could take a load off the plot staff and let them focus on their own plotlines and let me worry about the little encounters.
There's just one problem: I don't know anything about Wayside. Does someone have a quick primer that can get me acquainted with the major power players, current conflicts and other plot elements of interest? I'm not looking for plot secrets or any such goodness. Just the sort of thing that someone could tell me in about twenty minutes in-character when we're between mods. The more I know, the more interesting plotlines and encounters I can come up with to help out.
Thanks! If people would prefer that I make this request in-character, I can. I'm between PCs at the moment but I can introduce my new PC even before I play him.
