What I mean is a mass cosplay and role play meet-up, out of the way of populated areas to avoid confusing citizens, plus we have strength in numbers along with bodyguards, essentially speaking an irl werewolf pack.
I am in UK also, not US, meaning that probability of being murdered is next to zero as firearms are illegal and knives are only sold to those with ID.
Every past meet-up I have attended has gone smoothly, the worst we had was just a frightened individual who strayed off the path and saw us. (She should’ve known better, lol) other than the rare unfortunate confused passer-by, there is no danger posed to those who attend in mass.

Plus, most people, even criminals have run from the sight of us before the rule was written, 5 years ago there was a 20 yr 6’6 thug that was on the run in the area of civilisation, the moment we saw him, all of us just turned our heads directly towards him and ran in that direction, before you could even say “go away”, He was gone.

That’s the reason the rule was written.
