Class 2011Oct23: How to rp with LaRPs
(1 post)-
[11:01] LaylaS: Hello I'm not late am I?
[11:01] Faith Diesel: no just in time
[11:01] Marcus Firegrave: nope, faith should be just starting
[11:01] Faith Diesel: okies lets get going
[11:01] Faith Diesel: im faith and marcus and I are STs here
[11:01] Faith Diesel: you can friend us if you like
[11:02] Faith Diesel: makes it easier for any ST moments
[11:02] Faith Diesel: Hi Mas
[11:02] Marcus Firegrave: holy shit its mas, how the hell have you been?
[11:02] Faith Diesel: grins - good to have him back isnt it
[11:02] Mas SohlMas Sohl chuckles "Been well enough."
[11:02] Marcus Firegrave: and how
[11:03] Marcus Firegrave: man you are gonna have your hands full with me mas :P
[11:03] Faith Diesel: todays class is about how to use your larps to rp
[11:03] Faith Diesel: this is a freeform full immersion rp sim - does anyone know what that means?
[11:04] SilenceKnight: there is no script
[11:04] Fyah Viper: im clueless
[11:04] Faith Diesel: grins - exactly - thats the freeform bit
[11:04] LaylaS: no script & stay in character?
[11:04] Marcus Firegrave: means even people like me can be epic while helping with the back story of legacies XD
[11:04] Faith Diesel: you can rp anything you like as long as it is plausible for your character and the backstory of the sim
[11:05] Faith Diesel: has everyone read the about legacies page?
[11:05] Faith Diesel: let me find it
[11:05] Faith Diesel: http://legacies1891.com/?page_id=2
[11:05] Faith Diesel: ok the immersion bit
[11:06] Faith Diesel: we try to give you the environment to forget the rest of the world and immerse yourself in the world of legacies and to inhabit your character.
[11:07] Faith Diesel: this is why we dont allow ooc in local on the gamefloor
[11:07] Faith Diesel: and only ic in the residents chat
[11:08] Faith Diesel: and only ooc in the ooc chat - this helps to give you separation
[11:08] Faith Diesel: we also ask that you wear appropriate clothing on the gamefloor
[11:09] LaylaS: but appropriate to your character?
[11:09] Faith Diesel: so nothing once you start rping should distract you from the rp
[11:09] Marcus Firegrave: and time appropriate
[11:09] Faith Diesel: yes laylaS
[11:09] Marcus Firegrave: victorian or earlier
[11:09] Faith Diesel: your character is yours to invent
[11:10] Faith Diesel: you need to think about their abilites and weaknesses and their backstory
[11:10] Faith Diesel: and then act your character accordingly
[11:10] Faith Diesel: does that make sense laylas
[11:11] LaylaS: yes
[11:11] Faith Diesel: think of your character as a method actor on a stage
[11:11] Marcus Firegrave: =nods - contrary to popular belief im not as big of a jerk as war is Rl :P but acting like him? sooo satisfying
[11:12] LaylaS: smiles
[11:12] Faith Diesel: you do not have to know everything about your character at the beginning - let it build over time but do think about how your character would react - their strengths and weaknesses
[11:13] Faith Diesel: laughs at Marcus - your character can be as mean and evil as you like or nice and law abiding - up to you
[11:14] SilenceKnight: can you play yourself?
[11:14] Faith Diesel: but ooc you need to respect all your fellow players - a player is not at all the same as a character
[11:14] Faith Diesel: you are in the future of legacies that would be a bit difficult
[11:14] Fyah Viper: right i can understand that
[11:14] Marcus Firegrave: whos playing with themselves? should we film it?
[11:14] Faith Diesel: and we dont allow you to player real people or actual characters from myths or books
[11:15] Fyah Viper: lol
[11:15] Faith Diesel: play*
[11:15] LaylaS: though your character might have some of your personality traits SilenceKnight
[11:15] Faith Diesel: there is a good reason for this - rp can go anywhere in legacies but a know character has a fixed history
[11:16] Faith Diesel: its necessary to divorce your character from you
[11:17] Faith Diesel: ooc/ic blurring is not allowed because it can cause major drama
[11:17] Faith Diesel: and ooc drama is our number one no no
[11:17] Faith Diesel: you dont have to like everyone else who rps but you as the player do have to show them respect
[11:18] Faith Diesel: anyway im diverging from larps
[11:18] Faith Diesel: so having made your character - how do you rp them?
[11:19] Faith Diesel: in order for your rp to be available to larps and hence used to improve your character you need to post on channel 2
[11:19] Faith Diesel: ie you need to put /2 or /2m in front of your post
[11:20] Fate: "Does that make sense?"
[11:20] Mas SohlMas Sohl nods "Ayup."
[11:20] SilenceKnight: "oh yes"
[11:20] Willow Bracken: "yes"
[11:20] Fyah Viper: uh huh
[11:20] FateFate looks round the room to see if everyone has understood how to rp.
[11:21] Marcus Firegrave: nope, i know nothing
[11:21] WillowWillow nods
[11:21] Faith Diesel: Fyah - try putting /2 first
[11:21] SilenceKnight: "I am learning"
[11:21] Willow BrackenWillow Bracken looks at Marcus and laughs
[11:21] Faith Diesel: grins great willow
[11:21] FyahFyah looks around the room bashfully " oops yes i understand"
[11:22] Faith Diesel: this is the most important part of larps
[11:22] Faith Diesel: rp using /2 improves all your stats
[11:22] Mas SohlMas Sohl adds "I have a gesture that makes a '/me' in to a '/2', personally."
[11:22] Fyah: "would you pass it to me"
[11:22] Mas SohlMas Sohl snickers " I have to be difficult."
[11:23] Faith Diesel: thats up to you if you use gestures to help
[11:23] Marcus Firegrave: i have it too and will pass on if you need
[11:23] SilenceKnight: what is /me?
[11:24] Fyah: "thank you"
[11:24] Mas SohlMas Sohl says " I think that one works."
[11:24] Faith Diesel: using /2m is a contraction of /2/me
[11:24] Faith Diesel: both work with larps
[11:24] Mas SohlMas Sohl asks 'Is that a fairly new development, or has it always worked that way, with the '/2m'?"
[11:25] Faith Diesel: try to rp with as many characters as possible and rp a lot
[11:26] Faith Diesel: tri is also planning to add something that analyses the quality of your posts at some time - so there better posts may one day give you bonuses
[11:26] Faith Diesel: we dont have that yest though
[11:26] Willow Iredia: I dont like that
[11:26] Faith Diesel: legacies was set up for quality rp
[11:27] Mas SohlMas Sohl looks puzzled "What, some sort of quality algorithm?"
[11:27] Faith Diesel: it will not penalise just like a merit it will add for those who do well
[11:27] LaylaS: that's an interesting concept - not sure what a quality post would be based on - but I like the idea
[11:27] Willow Iredia: So those who try, but cant do as well, wont get the bonuses?
[11:28] Faith Diesel: its a long way off and i cant remember the name of the analyser its a well known one
[11:28] Faith Diesel: it doesnt look at your grammer or spelling but the sort of words your use
[11:28] Mas SohlMas Sohl chuckle " I am interested in how exactly it would figure out quality."
[11:28] Faith Diesel: so dont worry about that
[11:28] Willow Iredia: So you need a thesorus?
[11:28] Marcus Firegrave: it involves potatos mas
[11:28] Faith Diesel: i use it on one of my programmes its fun
[11:29] LaylaS: Phew! because me spelling can be lacking some what
[11:29] LaylaS: *my
[11:29] Mas SohlMas Sohl "laughs "Always a good determiner of quality."
[11:29] Faith Diesel: laughs - we dont care about spelling and grammare here - its all about story
[11:30] Fyah Viper: thats good cuz when i get stuck on a word i just sound it out lol
[11:30] LaylaS: So do I :D
[11:30] Faith Diesel: now what should you in include in your rp post to get the best out of your turn?
[11:30] SilenceKnight: i wonder more about the story
[11:30] Mas SohlMas Sohl thinks a moment " A potato?"
[11:31] Mas SohlMas Sohl snickers quietly
[11:31] Faith Diesel: Marcus is obsessed with potatoes
[11:31] Marcus Firegrave: yes ^_^
[11:31] LaylaS: Add questions to your post?
[11:31] Fyah Viper: descriptions of maybe your surrounding or what the character is feeling?
[11:31] Mas SohlMas Sohl adds again " a good "You will rue the day..."?"
[11:31] Faith Diesel: ok let me elaborate - you can add speech, description and action
[11:32] SilenceKnight: leave it open for other players to add to it
[11:32] Faith Diesel: speech is obvious - you can explain anything, ask anything, tell jokes - you name it
[11:32] Mas SohlMas Sohl Mas grins toothily, removing his hat, twirling it in his gloved paws before tossing it in to the air, catching it then rolling it on to his overly-large head
[11:32] Faith Diesel: description - this is about giving details to the characters in your scene to enhance that scene.
[11:33] Faith Diesel: think about your 5 senses
[11:33] Faith Diesel: sight, touch, taste, smell, & hearing
[11:33] Faith Diesel: and use all those to enrich the scene
[11:34] Faith Diesel: remember that sl is not a perfect representation of what can be understood in a scene
[11:34] Faith Diesel: for example it cant tell you about smells
[11:35] Faith Diesel: or if the character next to you has fleas
[11:35] LaRPS HUD: ((Help Request from TriJin Bade
Nimue MacbethRequires an invite to OOC observer group.))
[11:35] Faith Diesel: so use your post to reveal things aabout you and about the environment if you know it
[11:35] Mas SohlMas Sohl makes a face "For the record, Mas is extremely fastidious about his grooming, he has no fleas, don'tcha know."
[11:36] Faith Diesel: laughs
[11:36] FyahFyah scratches at her right forearm " i beg to differ"
[11:36] Faith Diesel: you do have a title line in your meter which allows you display information about you over your head
[11:37] Faith Diesel: but be careful just to include just what a character within range would detect
[11:37] Faith Diesel: they will not detect that you are a shoemaker - you need to ask that
[11:37] Faith Diesel: for example
[11:38] Faith Diesel: any questions ?
[11:38] SilenceKnight: what purpose is that
[11:38] LaylaS: no, all good here
[11:38] Faith Diesel: it allows the other characters in the scene to use the information in their rp
[11:38] LaylaS: You could say you spoke with an accent
[11:39] Faith Diesel: i just added something
[11:39] Faith Diesel: to my title
[11:39] Faith Diesel: now you probably dont have a black eye in your inventory
[11:39] Fyah Viper: and how do you change the title again
[11:39] LaylaS: so we could ask how you got your black eye?
[11:39] Marcus Firegrave: a prime example is war, everyone sees him, but nnone can deduce his motives, but if you look over my head, it shows you exactly what kinda presence i bring in
[11:40] Marcus Firegrave: yeah you could ask
[11:40] Faith Diesel: or if you do might be so small difficult for a player to see
[11:40] Faith Diesel: you use /9title fyah
[11:40] Fyah Viper: thank you
[11:41] SilenceKnight: so the black eye could be refered to
[11:41] Faith Diesel: yes - it can be seen plausibly
[11:41] Marcus Firegrave: yeah the title can let you see it
[11:41] Marcus Firegrave: it can also protect you, like what if your face and voice are masked?
[11:41] Fyah Viper: i had a character sniff me for 15 minutes trying to find out the scent beneath my peppermint
[11:42] Faith Diesel: so a friend might ask Fate my character "How did you get that shiner, Fate"
[11:42] Faith Diesel: good point marcus
[11:42] Faith Diesel: it can be hard to know that a character is in disguise
[11:42] Marcus Firegrave: or what if my hood is blocking out my features? you cant say you see them even if you could on my avi, its just respectful if my title says "face hidden"
[11:43] Faith Diesel: so it worth writing that in your title then there is no doubt for another character whether they would recognised you or not
[11:43] LaylaS: ok
[11:44] Faith Diesel: the last thing you can put in your post are actions but only one significant action
[11:44] Faith Diesel: does anyone know what i mean by a significant action?
[11:45] Marcus Firegrave: oh oh -volunteers to be the victim of faithys roll!
[11:45] Faith Diesel: giggles
[11:45] Faith Diesel: i might knock you out with a cheesy toastie
[11:45] SilenceKnight: something that effects another player
[11:45] Marcus Firegrave: you can try!
[11:45] Faith Diesel: yes silence that is definitely significant
[11:46] Faith Diesel: in legacies a significant action is any action that has an element of chance
[11:46] Faith Diesel: ie it could fail
[11:47] Faith Diesel: so that is all actions upon other characters or targetable npcs
[11:47] Mas SohlMas Sohl considers " Um, don't all actions have an element of fail inherent?"
[11:47] Faith Diesel: ok let me give an example
[11:47] Mas SohlMas Sohl corrects himself" Possibility, not element."
[11:47] Faith Diesel: we all clean our teeth every day -r most of us do
[11:48] Faith Diesel: the rp would be very boring if you had to roll to clean your teeth or walk or draw a sword
[11:49] Marcus Firegrave: lets do this!
[11:49] Faith Diesel: now you might have bad teeth or have a toothbrush with bristle turned to wire wool
[11:49] Faith Diesel: let me explain first
[11:49] Marcus Firegrave: lol
[11:49] LaylaS: lol
[11:49] Faith Diesel: in which case you would roll to clean your teeth
[11:49] Faith Diesel: but you decide whether the action is significant
[11:50] Faith Diesel: and if it is you must dice roll for it
[11:50] Faith Diesel: if your sword is rusty then it might be difficult to draw
[11:50] Faith Diesel: then it becomes significant
[11:50] SilenceKnight: do you find the wire wool or just write it in?
[11:50] Faith Diesel: laughs
[11:51] Faith Diesel: try not to whip things out of your ass - ie invent them in the heat of the moment
[11:51] Faith Diesel: thats not fair to your other players
[11:52] Faith Diesel: so rp buying a suede brush instead of a toothbrush by mistake
[11:52] Faith Diesel: or whatever
[11:52] Faith Diesel: grins
[11:52] Faith Diesel: its your rp
[11:52] SilenceKnight: so you take time and discover your objects
[11:53] Faith Diesel: you can rp buying things from shops or Mr Barnes by the docks for example
[11:53] SilenceKnight: or make them?
[11:53] Faith Diesel: or you can submit a crafting notecard and create things
[11:53] Faith Diesel: make it plausible
[11:54] Faith Diesel: what would you do in rl
[11:54] Faith Diesel: i need flour eggs sugar and butter to make a cake
[11:54] Faith Diesel: so would have to get those ingredients first
[11:55] SilenceKnight: or you would go to a bakery
[11:55] Faith Diesel: and id need to know how to make a cake
[11:55] LaylaS: is there a grocery shop in Legacies?
[11:55] Faith Diesel: i could go to the market and rp buying a cake or buying the ingredients and making the cake
[11:55] Faith Diesel: either is plausible
[11:56] Faith Diesel: if the ingredients are rare it would be significant so you should roll to see if you get that ingredient
[11:57] SilenceKnight: think about what would be available in London at that time
[11:57] Faith Diesel: anyway im off track - you need to know how to do a turn with a dice roll
[11:57] Faith Diesel: exactly Silence
[11:57] Faith Diesel: for example coca cola didnt reach the UK till the 1920s
[11:58] Faith Diesel: but it did exist in america
[11:58] Faith Diesel: in 1891
[11:58] Faith Diesel: now a turn with a significant action
[11:59] Faith Diesel: first you need to do your post - and your significant action needs to be phased as an attempt
[11:59] LaylaS: I'll have to buy a copy of Mrs Bettens's Housekeeping book
[11:59] Faith Diesel: grins - i have a copy in rp
[11:59] Faith Diesel: RL*
[11:59] LaylaS: :D
[12:00] Faith Diesel: so if you want to knwo what to pay your butler ask me oocly
[12:00] Faith Diesel: let me do a post
[12:03] Fate: "moves towards the spooky looking man with a very large sword. "Hello, Mister" She reaches up and tries to poke his nose."
[12:03] Faith Diesel: oops let me do again
[12:03] Marcus Firegrave: lol
[12:03] FateFate moves towards the spooky looking man with a very large sword. "Hello, Mister" She reaches up and tries to poke his nose.
[12:03] Faith Diesel: ok now i need to target marcus
[12:04] Faith Diesel: i can left click on him or type /9tar Mar
[12:04] Faith Diesel: maybe mar isnt enough
[12:05] Marcus Firegrave: its based on cara name
[12:05] Marcus Firegrave: so war
[12:05] Faith Diesel: ooo
[12:05] Faith Diesel: of course
[12:05] Faith Diesel: tries /9 war
[12:05] Marcus Firegrave: its /9tar war
[12:05] Faith Diesel: with the /9tar bit of course
[12:05] Faith Diesel: cant type
[12:05] Marcus Firegrave: lmao
[12:06] Faith Diesel: okies now i have his name in orange on my hud line
[12:06] Faith Diesel: so in know he is targeted
[12:06] Mas SohlMas Sohl asks "You can also try to click on them to target, yes?"
[12:06] Marcus Firegrave: anyone can target me now to see what she means.. but please, no harm roll spam
[12:06] Faith Diesel: yes
[12:06] Marcus Firegrave: yes left clicking to target
[12:06] Faith Diesel: post then target if there is one
[12:06] LaylaS: That sword looks way too big
[12:06] Faith Diesel: laughs
[12:06] Marcus Firegrave: lmao well i am war :P
[12:07] Faith Diesel: let me finish this poking
[12:07] Marcus Firegrave: and it is modified to fit my 8 ft frame
[12:07] Faith Diesel: now i have to decide what to dice roll
[12:07] Faith Diesel: first i would check the abilities list
[12:07] Faith Diesel: to see if there was anything suitable
[12:07] LaylaS: I've always gone by shoe size....When all the time i should of been looking at swords. Well you learn something new everyday
[12:08] Marcus Firegrave: lmao
[12:08] Faith Diesel: but i want to show you a non specific dice roll as that is the new bit of larps
[12:08] Marcus Firegrave: im.... not sure how to take that
[12:08] Faith Diesel: abilities you can try on your own - just follow the description to see if you can use it appropriately
[12:08] Mas SohlMas Sohl gives the little Fae his undivided attention
[12:09] Faith Diesel: in this case i am going to try and harm marcus nose
[12:09] Faith Diesel: so i click the blue gem
[12:09] Faith Diesel: to get the dice roll dropdown
[12:09] Faith Diesel: you can all try this with me so you can see what i see
[12:09] Faith Diesel: so click the blue gem
[12:10] Fyah Viper: im sorry guys im having trouble with my internet
[12:10] Faith Diesel: ignore the d# buttons and look at the top row
[12:10] Faith Diesel: you have a choice of target self or environment
[12:11] Faith Diesel: self would affect me
[12:11] Faith Diesel: environment would affect anything around me that i cant target
[12:11] Faith Diesel: but in this case i need to affect war, my target
[12:12] Faith Diesel: can everyone see what am doing?
[12:12] SilenceKnight: yes i have war targeted too
[12:12] LaylaS: yes
[12:12] Faith Diesel: the next drop down asks physical, mental or magical
[12:12] Marcus Firegrave: and here come the 20 harm rolls... lol
[12:13] Faith Diesel: laughs
[12:13] Faith Diesel: i am poking him physically
[12:13] Faith Diesel: mental would be anything to do with affecting war's mind
[12:14] LaylaS: harm?
[12:14] Marcus Firegrave: well actually that would be influence
[12:14] Faith Diesel: and magical - obviously i would be doing something magical
[12:14] Marcus Firegrave: physical would be a physical action, mental like telekenesis, and magical with magics
[12:14] Faith Diesel: havent got to influence
[12:15] Faith Diesel: im doing physical poke
[12:15] Faith Diesel: now i have 6 choices
[12:15] Faith Diesel: grapple is to hold someone without doing them harm
[12:16] Faith Diesel: influence as marcus said is about influencing your target - like persuading them to do something
[12:16] Faith Diesel: assist is to help your target do something
[12:17] Faith Diesel: and discovery is to find something out from your target
[12:17] Marcus Firegrave: yeah i was just saying influence is what affects anothers mind, not mental heh -waits for the harm-
[12:17] Faith Diesel: want to explain mental then marcus
[12:18] Marcus Firegrave: sure, im sorry to be the disruptive one lol
[12:18] Faith Diesel: i suppose better said that i am using my mind to affect some thing
[12:18] Marcus Firegrave: the second screen is best thought of your medium fo rhow you are interaction with them
[12:18] Marcus Firegrave: exactly faith
[12:18] Faith Diesel: winks at marcus
[12:18] Marcus Firegrave: ^_^
[12:19] Faith Diesel: now presence - this one is the least obvious
[12:19] Mas SohlMas Sohl successfully performs a physical presence on Fate.
[12:19] LaylaS: mental is "something" as opposed to someone?
[12:19] Faith Diesel: its about movement or manipulation
[12:19] Marcus Firegrave: mental is the medium you are using
[12:19] Faith Diesel: and the one i want which is harm
[12:19] Marcus Firegrave: example, i move a box...
[12:19] Marcus Firegrave: -shuts up- we'll address that in a min layla
[12:20] Faith Diesel: and i should have included in my post about fates long boney fingers and sharp pointy nails
[12:20] FateFate focuses on their skill of Elemental, successfully performs a physical harm on War.
[12:20] LaylaS: Sorry
[12:20] Marcus Firegrave: no its fine, i just didnt want to stomp over what she was doing
[12:20] Faith Diesel: i didnt say it quite right laylas - will clarify in a mind
[12:21] Faith Diesel: min*
[12:21] SilenceKnight: "yayyy"
[12:21] Faith Diesel: so i have successfully affected war
[12:21] Faith Diesel: now its wars turn to say what happened
[12:21] LaylaS: Oh big bad war got poked by a fae ...laughs
[12:21] Faith Diesel: which we call the reaction
[12:21] Marcus Firegrave: physically harmed me with her long pointy nails
[12:21] SilenceKnight: awwww
[12:22] Faith Diesel: i dont know how it would affect war so he posts the reaction
[12:22] SilenceKnight: does he roll too?
[12:22] Faith Diesel: he might have a ceramic nose
[12:22] WarWar winces in pai as her sharp wicked claws break the skin on his nose, grumbling as he rubbed his face in pain he thought well on returning the favor, leaning back before giving her a mighty headbutt in response!
[12:22] Faith Diesel: no his resist is all included in my roll
[12:22] Fyah Viper: right if you wrote is reaction that would be mega gaming
[12:22] Faith Diesel: thats why i target him
[12:22] LaylaS: Faith don't take away from your victory
[12:23] Faith Diesel: so he gets his resist
[12:23] Marcus Firegrave: exactly, and now that ive posted, its my turn, who can tell me what to roll?
[12:23] LaylaS: target, physical, harm?
[12:23] Faith Diesel: ooh war - attempts a might headbutt
[12:23] Faith Diesel: mighty*
[12:23] Marcus Firegrave: exaclty layla
[12:24] Faith Diesel: giggles go for it war
[12:24] WarWar focuses on their expert skill of Sword Fencing, successfully performs a physical harm on Fate.
[12:24] Faith Diesel: ouch
[12:24] Marcus Firegrave: now she has a concussion to go with the black eye
[12:24] Marcus Firegrave: lol
[12:24] LaylaS: awww
[12:25] Elizabeth Riley: "question"
[12:25] SilenceKnight: "gives Fate an ice pack"
[12:25] FateFate sees stars and staggers around listening to the tweeting of birds. She is dazed and confused.
[12:25] Faith Diesel: yes elisabeth
[12:26] Elizabeth Riley: "What does the sword fencing have to do with his post? That confuses me alot."
[12:26] Faith Diesel: ty marcus for your help
[12:26] Faith Diesel: he is focused on the skill of sword fencing
[12:26] Faith Diesel: probably why he didnt knock fate out
[12:26] Faith Diesel: mind on other things
[12:27] Faith Diesel: you can focus on any of the listed skills before you do a significant action
[12:27] Elizabeth Riley: "So if he were not focused on that , he would have a better chance at a stellar success roll?""
[12:28] Mas SohlMas Sohl looks confused "So, uh...He was thinking of other things whilst retaliating ?"
[12:28] Marcus Firegrave: yeah i forgot to switch my focus -_-
[12:28] Marcus Firegrave: jsut a mistake to be honest
[12:28] Faith Diesel: the focus means that you get most of your improvement on that skill if there is any to be hadl
[12:28] Mas SohlMas Sohl laughs "OH, it was not a random focus, you had been focused on that afore and forgot to change it, then?"
[12:29] Marcus Firegrave: yup
[12:29] Marcus Firegrave: exactly mas
[12:29] Faith Diesel: if you have nothing focused you get the improvement spread across all the relevant skills
[12:29] Faith Diesel: skills are new to this larps
[12:29] Elizabeth Riley: "ooooooooso we should change our focus to whatever he was trying to roll for?"
[12:29] Marcus Firegrave: well it was supposed to be wrestling to be honest
[12:30] Marcus Firegrave: that would have been best
[12:30] Marcus Firegrave: or boxing and fisticuffs
[12:30] Faith Diesel: yes but it is better for your character to be focused on jut a few things
[12:30] Mas SohlMas Sohl grins "Fisticuffs...Love that word."
[12:30] Faith Diesel: cos if you flit about everything its like not being focused - you have a little bit of everything and nothing known well
[12:31] Faith Diesel: grins
[12:31] Faith Diesel: to focus use /9use
[12:31] LaylaS: Sorry I have to go. Thank you for the lesson.
[12:31] Elizabeth Riley: "I see.....so just be mindful and either focus on what your rolling for or nothing?"
[12:31] Faith Diesel: i have been a bit longwinded
[12:31] SilenceKnight: not at all
[12:31] Faith Diesel: thank you for coming to class
[12:31] Mas SohlMas Sohl watches Elizabeth playing the invisible bongos with much amusement
[12:32] Elizabeth Riley: "Sorry this has confused me for quite some time."
[12:32] Faith Diesel: did everyone understand how a turn works
[12:32] Faith Diesel: and about skills
[12:32] SilenceKnight: better than before
[12:32] Faith Diesel: let me give you tthe link to the skills page
[12:33] Faith Diesel: http://larps.net/skills_and_professions.php
[12:33] Faith Diesel: one of the fun things about skills is that once you get to expert your character can start teaching the skill to others
[12:34] Faith Diesel: and you can read how well you are doing in your skills on your character sheet
[12:34] Mas Sohl: [12:32 PM] LaylaS Resident: Sorry I have to go. Thank you for the lesson.

[12:36] LaRPS HUD: ((Help Request from TriJin Bade
Lucio BrandoRequires an invite to OOC observer group.))
[12:37] Faith Diesel: this is tris solution to that fact that we were ticking up healthy too fast in a combat situaation as it takes a lot longer to do a round of rp in a large group
[12:37] LaRPS HUD: ((Help Request from TriJin Bade
Lucio BrandoRequires an invite to OOC observer group.))
[12:37] Faith Diesel: so scenemode stops your health and strength healing during a fight
[12:37] Faith Diesel: so everyone can see how much damage everyone has
[12:38] Faith Diesel: each square is 10%
[12:38] Faith Diesel: so you can see i have lost 10% health and 10% strength
[12:38] LaRPS HUD: ((Help Request from Shadow Winslet

[12:38] Faith Diesel: and still poked wars eye
[12:38] Faith Diesel: grins
[12:39] SilenceKnight: did war get damage?
[12:39] Mas SohlMas Sohl asks politely "Did you mention how to go in to 'scenemode'?"
[12:39] Faith Diesel: you go into scenemode by typing /9scenemode on
[12:39] Faith Diesel: and add off instead to take it off
[12:39] Mas SohlMas Sohl nods and smiles "Thaks."
[12:39] Fate: ((RP Scene Mode is OFF))
[12:39] Fyah Viper: thats neat
[12:40] Faith Diesel: see now mine is off

[12:45] SilenceKnight: thanks for the class
[12:45] Faith Diesel: and for those who i confused about mental
[12:45] Faith Diesel: physical mental & magical are about the nature of my attempt not the targets
[12:46] Faith Diesel: so if i chose mental i am using my mind to affect something
[12:46] Faith Diesel: if i use influence in the next set of options i am attempting to affect the targets mind
[12:46] Faith Diesel: hope that is clearer
[12:47] SilenceKnight: yes that helps
[12:47] Faith Diesel: mental block that marcus rightly picked me up on
