New FacesI have been spreadingthe word that is LARP to the guys and gals down here and there are a few who are interested.
One is definately keen on coming along to an event. From the converstations we have had she wants to be a Kender so that doesn't fit with the children themselves. But maybe we gave her shelter or something and so she is affiliated with us on a IC level. She wants to be a 1/4staff fighter so that fits with those Kender stick things.
I will talk to her some more today and see, cos it would probably be easier to have the first character as human so she gets used to it all and can observe some Kender madness first.
Anyway, will talk in more detail with the others who are potentially interested. Once I have figured out who is up for it and who isn't we will have to sort out a meeting of sorts. Maybe if Ian or some of you lot are free one weekend you could pop down with some kit and weapons and let them get a bit of a feel for it. See if it what they wanted and everything.
What say ye?

Usual rules about getting to know them first before we invite them apply to everything below.
Best bet for them will be some kind of weapons practice to make sure they are ok with getting hit and safe fighting. How many and how old out of interest?
Kender will be fine, there are already plenty in the Dragons, kender dont really need any justification to be in the group. We are shiny so she decided to follow us around. She can expect IC grief of me, maybe worth warning her, I dont like Kender that much.
As they are a good way away and we do have other newbies wanting to join its proably worth setting up a support unit for an event or two. Same basic kit but a sash rather then surcoat, we have hired them to stiffen up the numbers a bit. Im fine with a weapons practice and a bit of a kit show off for them. Talk to you about it tonight/tomorow.
If any can get kit in time it may be worth them coming to the campaign event as mosnters.

Thats what I thought. There are a few and I am trying to nail down exactly how many. There are a couple of people who would really like to but may not be able to for various reasons but I have 1 100% definate and maybe up to 4 other possibles.
If you remember Sean my mate from london, he is also quite interested and I think he is coming up the weekend after conception, is this a good weekend to try and do a kit show off/introduction and all that jazz?

Sounds like a possibility. Do you have a venue in mind? I am hoping to do airsoft that sunday, if my new battery arrives in time. if not then it should be fine.
|
Death Jester

Fair enough. Either day of the weekend should be fine.
Yeah my back garden is big enough to have a good mess around. There is a smaller side garden too for smaller area fighting. There is also a big public field/hillside not to far away if all else fails.

Hi it's me. i was thinking about setting up a side group from phedes myself, i have 2 other people who are interested (my boyfriend didnt fancey it, so he's not coming to any more events) so i was thinking of possibly setting up a seperate group with ties to phedes still, since i'm so far away and kinda removed from the group planning.
if your online some time Ian, i'd like to disscuss the idea with you.

Nothing wrong with Kender, make good targets and easy to take the piss out of. Just dont tell the Kender about the Cold Iron.

I thought we were staying away from cold iron?
Are we still possibly on for this weekend?
I need to know so I can gather bodies

I know it's a bit of a way away for you DJ, but the 1st planned weapons practice is the 22nd, which is the 3rd sunday from now - you're all welcome to come then! Tho it's not a Phedes thing, so maybe better to meet up earlier? BTW, can you ocme to the weapons practice? If needed, we can offer a couch to sleep on sunday night, and you can then go home monday evening, so (hopefully) wouldn't cost more than a normal monday, unless you are needed in work then...

Weather = Terrible, forecast is for it to get worse over the weekend.
Health = Terrible, Dam you, it is your fault cause I say so
Mat and Shell = Moving(probably)
Might be worth moving it back a week or two.
Ian
PS we are staying away from cold iron

Death Jester

Ok fair enough. To be honest I wont be sure about the weapons practice till we are closer.
I'm hoping to get my hands on some weapons at some point.
I now have 2 definates at least

me and gav are subject to a few shows (wrestling) but not many booked yet so we will probably be able to come still if you move it. lots of places for you to stay death. you can at ours as usual if you like.

Haskeer

as soon as i learn how to get some in game then i will stay away from it even more.

I hear the dwarfs know how to stay away from it pretty well, they even managed to get some stolen last year to get away from it from what I hear
Ian

Haskeer

So Ian and people can we get an 'intro' weekend organised? I mean just need to know if you can come down with some gear and maybe 1 or two other people, whoever can make it

Bringing them to the weapons practice would be the best idea probably. Dragging people up to Llandundnodododnos or however you spell it is gonna be hard and its not much good with just 3 or 4 people. If you can get to the train station we can arrange lifts.
Ian

its just to give people a bit of a go. They wont be able to go to most weapons practices anyway so it will be the only wawy to meet them properly.
The issue is that there is probably about 6 of us, that would cost almost £100 to get us there on the train, 1 drives so a few of us going to weapons practice is possible but not everyone will be able to make it.
So just an hour or two of getting people to have a go and explaining it to them in more detail. We can always play some boardgames afterwards.

if you do that DJ could me and gav catch a lift with ian? he could do with some in depth discussion he has alot of questions.
|
Death Jester
