Okay, first, the serious stuff: that snake statue in the Dead District. It has to go. It's bad news. I have some plans and ideas, though if any of you are hackers (of the lifehacking variety, not the computer kind, nerrrds) or engineers, I could use your input. Current plan? Ropes and winches and lots of manpower to pull it down, then sledgehammers to take care of what's left after it shatters.
Suggestion: Wear loose fitting nondescript clothing bought from thrift stores and masks. No identifying stuff. This is vandalism, kids! And we do NOT wanna get arrested. In, out, gone. People who know the District well, if any of you have good maps for escape routes and ways to evade the police, let me know.
Second: More serious stuff. Flight last Friday (sorry about the delay in reporting findings, school this week was hell) revealed some weird security at some farms outside the city. More than a farm should had. Suggest investigating from the ground, but be careful.
Third: AND NOW, GOOFY STUFF. Because
christ this stuff has been heavy and I think some of us could use a silly break. So I run Dungeons and Dragons games sometimes, and if you fucking laugh I'll cut you. Anyway, I'm thinking of running a n00b game in a study room at the school library, because man I'm technically a professor and I'm allowed to check out rooms ALL DAY if I want.
The dungeon will be the Keep on the Borderlands. I've got room for up to 7 players, though my friend Bakura gets first dibs on a slot. I'll be using the
Advanced Labyrinth Lord ruleset, so use that to roll up a character, it's a free PDF. Your stats are Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma; roll 3d6 -- that's 3 six sided dice -- for each stat to figure out what it is, then figure out your race and class. Races allowed are humans, dwarves, elves, halflings (Hobbits), gnomes, half-elves, and half-orcs. Classes are fighters, thieves, wizards, clerics (healer guys), paladins (holy warriors), monks (martial arts dudes), druids (hippies), assassins, and rangers. If you need help making a character, just ask.
I'll list the players here as you guys reply. Also gimmie your email so I can tell you guys where we're meeting. I figure we can play on Saturday or Sunday?
PLAYERS:
* Bakura
((OOC: You guys do NOT have to actually make characters if you're interested in the DnD thing; just pick a race, a class, and what that character is generally like. I'm going to actually USE the real dungeon, sort of, but I'm going to play fast and loose and probably not bother with actual rolls and stuff because that's tedious. Players who asked for dibs in the OOC post earlier were Robb Stark, Bakura, Aragorn, Yuuya, Sasame, Anthony, and the Psionic, so they have dibs. ))
