+ | What you are about to witness is real. The participants are not actors. They are the living people and ghosts who have already either filed suit or been served a summons to appear in municipal court. Both parties in the suit have agreed to dismiss their court cases and have their disputes settled here, in our forum: | ||

+ | Ghost Court. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Ghost Court is a ridiculous, casual, mechanics-free LARP about ghosts | ||
+ | and the people who sue them. It's a published game by Jason | ||
+ | Morningstar being run by Cel Skeggs. | ||

+ | == [Unknown Weekend] I Say A Little Prayer == | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''GMs: Laura Boylan''' | ||
+ | |||
+ | I Say a Little Prayer follows the lives of 5 young gay men during the early years of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s. We will play out their sexual and romantic adventures as well as the story of how their friendship evolves over the course of several years in a community hard hit by the epidemic. Through the lottery of death mechanic we find out who of these friends will die before the story is over and how this shapes the lives of the survivors who live on. This is a respectful and intimate LARP for those who enjoy playing stories about many-faceted relationships between people and would like to play out emotional storylines in a fearless way. Players of any gender identity can play the LARP irrespective of all the characters in the LARP being men. Players whose characters die will still be involved with the LARP for the remaining run time through meta-techniques. | ||

Game will involve about a third of the characters dying, beginning about halfway into game, with musical chairs being used as a mechanic to determine which characters will die (players of dead characters are welcome to remain to observe game OOC). Game is vaguely Nordic- esque in style, with no plot and revolving around the characters simply talking about their relationships, past, and feelings. 18+ or with permission. | Game will involve about a third of the characters dying, beginning about halfway into game, with musical chairs being used as a mechanic to determine which characters will die (players of dead characters are welcome to remain to observe game OOC).

− | == [ | + | == [Unknown Weekend] Murder on the Starlight Express == |
+ | |||
+ | '''GMs: Ken Clary, Jayson Lynch, Jay Muchnij''' | ||
+ | Welcome to "Murder on the Starlight Express", a six hour, experimental [for its time] murder mystery assassin game. You can be one of ten crewmen trapped onboard the Freighter Gabriel, on course from Ceti Alpha 6 to Epsilon Eridani 4, with a murderer (or two) trapped on board. It's the classic whodonit, but in assassin style, where the criminals can shoot back, and maybe even shoot first. | ||
+ | |||
+ | == [Unknown Weekend] Murder at Elm Hall == | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''GMs: twohlers''' | ||
+ | |||
+ | You and five others have been invited to spend the weekend at Elm Hall by the wealthy Lord Black, a famous socialite renowned for his parties. You were delighted to be invited -- but now he seems to be dead! To make matters worse, a storm has cut off all communication with the outside world -- you are on your own, with the killer among you. With no help from the outside world, it is up to you to be judge, jury, and executioner of one of your own peers. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Murder at Elm Hall is a murder mystery where the answer to the question 'who did it' is less important than how six suspects who can't rule each other out deal with being trapped with each other. | ||
