jdotmiSo, I'm becoming vaguely interested in a LARP. I went and bought the revised LOTN book and the Cam and Sabbat books for MET. I made a Tremere, made a Brujah. Now pondering more characters to make in a "Dunno if I want to play this, but I'll give that a try" kind of thing.
The group I may be playing with is a Cam sanctioned group, so I was going to just be playing an NPC since I don't really have the main times available for play that the game is scheduled for.
For kicks, I got myself a Cam membership and am pondering trying to get my Tremere approved. Tremere are approval only apparently. I dunno, I don't have the Cam handbook yet. Of course, due to the character concept and behavior I expect the request to be denied (of course, I can still play her as an NPC, but hey).
So, then there is my Brujah who I could play. She wouldn't require approval, other than from the ST and since he's my best friend and I've known him since 3rd grade and have been gaming with him since 6th grade I think I'm pretty well gonna get it.
So, just for kicks, here are the characters. One at a time.

History: Lisa's life was full of mysteries and excitement, one could say. Her family was a long line of hedge magicians with exceptional talents. Lisa was a natural at mastering the small static magics that they presented to her, and eventually surpassed most of her peers and teachers with hardly a try. Her elders never took her seriously, however. She was always acting like a child and being silly. They didn't realise that while she was doing this, she was learning more and more from watching and listening to them.
One of her "elders" was more attentive to her behavior. He had big plans for her.
Lisa is a very competitive woman. In life, she wanted to be the best at everything she did, and she would go out of her way to learn more about the things she wanted. Her methods brought questioning glances from those around her, but hardly anyone ever caught on to the game she was playing with them. When she finally showed her elders once and for all that she was indeed more powerful than any of them, they feared her, and rightly so. She refuses to accept that she cannot accomplish something she sets out to do, and will destroy those who get in her way, whether this being literally, or figuratively speaking.
Her cover is a childlike innocence and bizzare behavior. She talks to the flowers, asking them for advice, seeing if they love her and those around her. She plays with dolls, draws childish crayon pictures on walls, and reads early reader books around her peers and elders. However, once the masses are gone and there is business to be done, she becomes a cold, calculating, and precise woman.
She was brought before the Tremere as a mortal. She kept up the pretense of the childlike woman, playing with flowers and cooing about the pretty pictures in the books. The gathered Tremere snickered at her presence and thought she might make an interesting snack, but certainly nothing else. The hurricane Lisa summoned after that comment changed their minds.
Roleplaying - Once, she commanded the forces of nature at their most destructive. Those powers are lost to her forever, but something new has taken their place, and she will master it to the same degree. She still acts the part of the oblivious child, but now she scribbles in notepads and the things she writes would terrify those who speak so freely in her presence.

Equipment: Clothing: Dusty blue jeans, high black leather boots. Knee length black leather jacket. NY Yankees baseball cap. Holsters for guns (2, one for each side, above the waist). 9mm handgun (in pocket normally). Motorcycle. 2 heavy pistols (in holsters in jacket). Portable CD player.

History: You would be an old fashioned girl, if you weren't so pissed off at people. You grew up in the late 60's and early 70's, you had a great family, good schools. You had the boy next door with a crush on you. Of course, the fact that he was an obsessive stalker who nearly killed you sort of soured you on that notion. The fact that he killed your cousin sent you over the edge.
They still haven't found his body.
You became an activist. A proponent of women's rights, an outspoken feminist determined to stomp out abuse of any kind. Of course, they didn't really like you in the feminist movement because not only were you a card carrying NRA member, you were usually packing heat to the meetings.
Maybe that's what the Brujah saw in you.
Now you're an activist on a whole new scale. You're the angel of death for those who would dare hurt a woman. Doesn't matter who it is, young, old, male, female. Anyone who hurts a woman deserves to burn, and you're more than happy to be the one sending them to their eternal hell.
The group I may be playing with is a Cam sanctioned group, so I was going to just be playing an NPC since I don't really have the main times available for play that the game is scheduled for.
