Admin/Sign Up for WWJ XIII: 'Til Death Do We LARP - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Oooo, can't resist a bare-bones game!

Hmm, I will be the local Rat Wrangler and my name will be Kitty Watcha'mikolit (half dwarf-half troll)

. She has no weapons to speak of, just her trusty flute.

Looking back at Volo's occupation, do we put down our RL jobs or made up ones? I think I may have missed something Jenny with your quotations around RL

JennyHallu · 11-02-2006, 12:31 PM

It can be your real real job if you really want it to be. Or not. Up to you. I won't be checking up, if that's what you're asking.

EDIT: Just let it be at least marginally plausible.

Volo · 11-02-2006, 12:37 PM

My sure isn't real, it would just be so ironic to have a character with such a low job and being so ambitious in larp.

(that character was actually a part of my "how not to make a BD RPG character"-example. I even wanted to start a thread like this "How NOT to do something in The Barrow Downs or in Tolkien's world", but I decided against it, not having good enough examples.)

Folwren · 11-02-2006, 03:05 PM

Are you looking for more players? If so, I think I'll join...the fact that Jenny's modding it is practically enough to get me to play.

A couple questions before making up my mind entirely:

When will it start?
You didn't say, but it looked possible - are you wanting all the posts in Role-playing form itself?

I will seriously consider just how much time I am willing to waste and then let you know if I decide you join you...provided you'll let me, of course.

I shall be the schadenfreude-prone halfling mortician, wielding an ancient elvish shovel. I'll get back to you with a name shortly.

Anguirel · 11-02-2006, 03:33 PM

I confirm my participation.

The theme has caught me slightly off balance, but I shall be an aged academic expert in Ruritanian poetry, who (hiding his suspect hobby from his respected colleagues and students) performs the role of Ptolemaius the Objectionable, a human wizard.

Valier · 11-02-2006, 04:56 PM

Sign me up Jenny!!
I shall be Anoonnoon from Omacron Persieye eight I shall be a Radical Hair Butcher and I shall be Elven.
Also I work most days until at the latest 8:00 pm CST if that is a problem for anyone let me know, because I may have to vote early most days, but with the retractable vote I may be able to sneak in a vote on some days.
