LARP

LARP with Tony yesterday was a lot of fun. The first mission that we did was against some sort of giant kobold. Kobolds are normally about size one or so, but this one was size five, which is about the size of a centuar. We went to investigate. You drew cards from a deck that Tony had. Red meant that you were a baddie, black a goodie. I was really hoping to be a baddie for the first part, because I have really bad equipment. I had no such luck. I was a goodie. More to the point, I was the only goodie that managed to survive the initial onslaught. I ran back to town. All of our other goodies didn't. I survived, the others didn't. Then a rescue mission was staged. It went well, I think. I can't remember. After that, we went to a council hearing on the brackmarket. The vote on whether or not to ban it outright was postponed, but a 40% tax on all of its sales was agreed upon. After that, it was agreed to investigate the ships with wings. That was an interesting little adventure, during which I played as a baddie for the entire time. First I was a wave, then a storm mage. Waves are fun. You grab onto people and try to drown them, or you try and destroy the masts, depending on what you crash into first. The storm mage part, however, didn't let you fight in the end, as a truce was negotiated. The last part of the first session was small things, where I worked as a blacksmith and one guy ran around knocking people out and performing surgery on them and nearly killing them. Another mission we were looking for the chief reviver, who was missing. I was a baddie. I got to be a shark. It was a lot of fun.

After the first session before lunch, all of us who came to all of the Sunday sessions and didn't lose any levels hit level six and chose our classes. I became a storm mage. I have become more than a little trigger-happy with my ice ball. After the first session, the second session we essentially set ourselves up to do three missions at once. First, we would sail down to these thumb lava tunnels, to try and find the chief reviver. After that, we would sail up and let some people investigate the town of bracknick, while another group goes to Mt. Skillhaven. The people who go to Mt. Skillhaven will get four gold, with the person who finds the item has the option of either gaining 50 gold for themselves or having the guy donate 10 equipment sets worth of stuff to the party. I'm going on that mission, as between that and what everyone got from the tunnels, I'll have enough money for almost two equipment sets.
