LARP

[jack]

On Friday I went to LARP. In the spooky coincidence stakes #1, my character had been troubled by prophetic dreams that the end of the world was nigh and his/all gods were returning to judge us. He was pleasently surprised to find that when he turned up in the bar, everyone else also had omens telling them a god was coming and the end of the world was nigh, and had plans well in hand that would hopefully control the situation. This meant he was catapulted into interfering with main plot sooner than possible, but fit in well.

In #2. I was reading about Tarot (looking for CUSFS seating riddles, and thinking "Whoah, Mao with 56 cards and 23 nines of diamonds!" and found they were used in the plot here too.

It would have been nice to go to the linear, but I had a friend staying, and didn't quite feel up to an away/night bash.

The Knights, surely? Knaves are analogous to the Jack in a normal pack, and it's the Knight which is missing.

I can't remember whether we successfully went five rounds. It was too long ago :-)

Doh! Yes, that's what I meant. I do know knaves=jacks, but somehow my brain wanted them to be knights.

Hmm, the tarot deck I'm used to has Princes and Princesses (Jacks and Jills, we always used to call them).
