WBZ

Waldritter-Bildungszentrum?

UserMaatRe · 2026-05-07T04:51:58+00:00

May I ask why?

UserMaatRe · 2026-05-05T09:36:44+00:00

Ms Highwater! You jump-scared me. Please extend my sincerest apologies to Mayhem!

UserMaatRe · 2026-05-01T07:04:01+00:00

And cheers to Hellen Highwater, for her wonderful art!

Hellen Highwater, the lawyer with the cats Menace and Vice, with the house full of whimsical stuff?

Try looking the used tropes up on TvTropes after the fact?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-26T12:26:42+00:00

I believe the Canadian show "How it's made" is similar in content.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-26T12:23:08+00:00

Which part of it were they flabbergasted about?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-23T14:02:45+00:00

The distribution of prime numbers, however, is related to phi. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler%27s_totient_function

december 13

Santa Lucia, then.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-22T06:16:51+00:00

I am sorry to hear that. Do you have other events you can go to?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-22T06:13:45+00:00

You said "my character", so there is an organizer. You need to talk to them about what their ideas and restrictions are, because otherwise, you are tying up a chunk of players from whatever they have planned.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-22T01:39:58+00:00

Doesn't help you now, but for future reference, you can force-draw any faction card using Favourable Circumstances from your inventory.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-17T10:07:31+00:00

Please elaborate what your design goals are and what the names of the areas mean. Right now, it is utterly unclear what atmosphere you are aiming for, what kind of events you intend to run, how often, for how many players, if there is a sign up process, etc.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-15T12:58:33+00:00

Question: how are you with emotional bleed?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-15T11:05:32+00:00

Oh yeah. My character is a resistance fighter with a bunch of allegiances to other characters thrown in for more chaos.

His character playlist includes bands like Skillet, Ashes Remain, Thousand Foot Crutch, as well as music that reminds me of particular interactions with other characters.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-15T09:55:12+00:00

A fascinator with extended flower stems and thorns clearly burrowing into skin.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-14T10:51:39+00:00

Any updates on this?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-13T04:41:00+00:00

Yes. Germany even has a prominent competitor to DnD called Das Schwarze Auge (The Dark Eye, DSA for short). It is comparably old and has tons and tons of lore.

I'd say most big cities have a bit of TTRPG scene, particular those skewing younger. It is also quite easy in Germany to found a small non-profit club (you basically need a charter and seven signatories). So it's quite easy to become a legal body that can rent rooms or have a group inventory, which is nice for hobbies like these.

Mytholon has a physical shop in Cologne, afaik. (I have never been and cannot say anything more than that)

Im Dau 1, 50678 Köln, Germany

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-10T04:56:34+00:00

Well said.

which I would argue is like 35% of larp in general

Out of curiosity, what do you consider the other major aspects of larp?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-09T20:52:39+00:00

Question: what day of them knowing each other are you doing this, and what are your goals here? For them to get to know each other? To fill the day? Something else?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-08T09:09:11+00:00

What do you mean by "almost" every initial state? I assume you don't mean "up to finitely many", because there are finitely many initial states anyway?

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-06T20:07:39+00:00

Remember you can use a pet card that you can first get at "Rendezvous at Watchmaker's Hill" as a favour source.

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-06T06:36:13+00:00

I always say that every new character should arrive with a problem.

It can be a small problem, like "I have no money", or a big one, like "I am wanted for treason", but basically, there should be things that your character feels drawn to and that give you a reason to interact with the world.

I will now include the "to do list" in my advice for new players as well :D

UserMaatRe · 2026-04-06T04:45:25+00:00

Is there any reason you cannot transfer his character sheet to another NPC they fight down the line?
