Larp and characters

The larp yesterday was good, in hindsight I definitely enjoyed myself. That's always the odd thing about playing Aurinyan, regardless of whether or not he's had a bad day I can never be sure whether I actually enjoyed the game until a while after it. Of course it helped I can ignore puns fairly well, just receiving a mild recognition of the existence of the play on words, but no further mental response than that. You can't filter them out completely, but you can ensure that most of time they generate no reaction at all.

( Aurinyan stuff )

( A tale of two mages )

( linte=Bounce )

The last one caught me by surprise. Funny as hell though.

( 24 hour thoughts )

EDIT: Having spoken to almosthonest I am now firmly looking forward to the 24 hour, and also have understanding. I still think the discussion is worth having and we should look at trying something else next year, at the very least to give roadkillgerbil a break. Edit End

The other thing is I'm not sure who to bring to the 24 hour any more. Cumberland is definitely out as a freedom priest he has absolutely no interesting in a test of combat run by a might priest, he's had quite enough of that sort of combat from his own experiences to enjoy watching it. Lucien is tempting, but to be honest I'd have to borrow chain mail to cover all my locations and I'm not sure I can be bothered with the weight of armour, especially as the costume is the armour, and I couldn't really relax as him and remove it. So that leaves my mages Aurinyan and Linte. As mages they aren't going to be able to get involved with the combat contest side of things, the rules have mostly guaranteed that, though Linte could take part in the scout competition. Aurinyan had planned to go to sell power ups to because to be honest it was the only time the charity has earned any income, and with that gone, he'd probably spend most of his time bitching and insulting the tournament and how it has gone down hill this year. He's fun to roleplay, and while he could go in an effort to network, he wouldn't have a great time (Though he'd be amused if something came up to ruin the tournament, and he'd be pleased to see certain people get beaten up). Linte on the other hand would enjoy himself regardless, get to meet a whole load of new characters and it would be interesting to see how many characters and players xanthipe and I could break with the IC cuteness. Aurinyan would like the points, he needs them, random item creation skills buying for the sake of the charity/golems has left him behind where he needs to be power wise. Linte would almost certainly mean monstering on the Sunday, at the very least because while I need points for him I don't want to push him out of the rank brackets for the following shire games as 48 would be too many.

So who should I bring?
