SLARPcon '06
Ok, boys and girls, It's time to get yourselves ready for a weekend of geekery! But leave your dicebags and rulebooks at home, kids, cause this weekend is all larp, all the time. (And no, not the boffer kind.)
The second annual SLARPcon kicks off tonight with JBA & AP's Harry Potter game. Having seen the fine array of bookshelves they made for the game, I have to say that I can't wait to see what other funky occult items they managed to dig up for this game. We'll have a few new LARPers in our midst, since we've attracted the attention of some of the HP fans. I should be a great time. I know I've got my wand and robes all ready.
The staffers for WL's Cthulu game, the Phoenix Project, gathered last night to rehearse, and I can tell you, it's gonna be some kinda freaky. This is one of the few games I can think of where being a staffer is likely to be just as fun (if not more) as being a player. If you're not playing - you should, and if you are... Well, me and the rest of the staffers will be seeing you shortly. Heh. ;)
Saturday is going to be full of costume changes. Aside from my three or so costume changes for the Phoenix Project, there is my ifrit costume for Nightmare City. I've pulled out all the stops on this one. Hooves, tail, facial prosthetic... You name it. Unfortunately, it's gonna be a bugger to get on, especially since Nightmare City is only a few hours after the Cthulu finale. Can I pull it off? Time will tell.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it to the Wild West game on Sunday afternoon. There's a good chance that Layne and I will be scrambling to put the finishing touches on our props for the Shadowrun game, but if we manage to get things set up and ready to go in good time, I'll certainly drop by to check it out. But, things are coming together nicely for Shadowrun. I know it'll be difficult for the out-of-towners to stay for the Sunday evening slot, but the Shadowrun game will be well worth it. We've got a nightclub, munchies, and a virtual reality glow-room. How is that not awesome? (Oh, and orcs. Don't forget the orcs.)
Anyway, enough of my yammering. I go now to hunt down the last few costume pieces I need.... Let the geeking commence!
