Nasty LRP

I seem to have been sucked into yet another system ... truly I am weak ... this time in the wonderful Candlestone site. The game is Cataclysm¹ and appears to be the mutant offspring of the critically aclaimed Leogyr.

So what has drawn me in? Well the chance to play an over-the-hill (and, frankly, off his rocker) unseelie Fey (name either Bleakworm or Bilespittle ... see where I'm going with this?) who sits around all day being unpleasant. Also the chance to LRP with Tim and Nigel Britain (both sans LJ) for the first time in years.

No combat skills, driving goggles, white frock coats and bad attitudes ... I think this might be fun.

¹ The website is truly appalling and the published rules aren't much help in generating a character, but the organisers do respond to posts on the Forum pretty quickly so I'm not overly worried ... though I am sorely tempted to set up a shadow site just so that there can be some means of accessing the rules painlessly!

Is it that time already?

Happy birthday to the bastard offspring of Yog Sothoth and Norah Batty ... the redoubtable Wulfboy.

Have a tip-top day old son.

By the way, have you got that red paint off yet?

Cataclysm

For those who are interested, I've transcribed the two pieces of online rules for Cataclysm LRP:

• Basic Rules


• Character Ability Development

They're pdf files so you'll need a reader to look at them but on the bright side it isn't the arcane (not to mention godsawful) Snapshot viewer nonsense you need to download from the Cataclysm site itself.

If you've got any questions about the system go visit the Forums and ask there ... they won't bite, honest.

As to what the system is like/about I'm sorry, I haven't a clue. I've been drawn in by the lure of a cool character concept, seeing some old friends, and camping in a location that I am really very fond of.

They're going to taste grrrrrrreat!

Utter f*****g genius

That is all.

More Cataclysm

I've set up an egroup for the Cataclysm group. If you haven't had an invitation but think you deserve one, let me know (with your email address) and I'll send one off to you ... maybe.
