larp question

[technoir]

So Scott asked an interesting question so I will ask it as well. I have a larp buddies out there and many of you have seen me play lots of different characters. What kind of characters do I play well? What kind of characters do I not do well? I have my own thoughts on this but I am interested in hearing what other folks think.

Whatever you did with Mortimer. He's your best character. Pyotr and Angus are also really cool.

Mortimer was a concept character. I tried to deliberately create a character who would have no angst. I figured someone who revered death would not be bothered when people he liked died. Turns out he had angst anyway but it was odd. I did not have him till I did the voice. Once I had his voice I knew what he was like.

All of those characters had voice as a defining characteristic in meeting them.

That's interesting, considering your talent with the podcasts. :)

some people need costuming or make up to get in character. I do it when I start sounding like a character.
