As I said in another thread, I am planning on the 9th to have a social event to kick off the event - I am also planning on one for the 9th December.

Hit-Parade, you signed up for RP things - so, we can use this thread to brainstorm ideas

Suggestions I have are:

1. Story telling about beasts
2. Lore events that are like someone giving a presentation about a beast, and having a question and answer session at the end
3. Guided tours around museums (would need to have some decent completion to do this - there are members in the cabal that do have a lot already done )

HP / Yuri - you were both interested in running RP / social events for this event - have you got anything planned over the coming weeks?

I am sorry to say I have no plan as yet. Now that my local tabletop game con that I ran an RPG game at has passed, I will start putting some serious consideration into this. I have completed exhibits in the following wings, if anyone has anything to suggest related to them (Classic centerpieces unless otherwise noted):
Local Legends of New England
The Reanimated
Strains of the Filth
Cycle of the Draug
Menagerie of the Vampire (Superior)

Marlo said you can use his museum if you want to coordinate with him. He has a huge amount completed.

OK, spoke with HP about this at SARP today. We are currently planning an open-ended black-tie social event next Saturday which he should get posted this evening. He also had an idea for a lecture event followed by a monster or lore hunt which we'll probably be working on for a couple weeks after the black-tie social. I'll also be trying to think up at least one more directed-story idea to set in a museum.

You know Cabal Pride is next Saturday?

Otherwise, it sounds great!

Well, I have to admit that had escaped my attention. I will mail HP to put that off until the following week... which is Halloween weekend. Hrm.

Now that marlo has gone to legio fulminata, do we know if the offer of hosting still stands? Has anybody talked to him since then? Will we need to find a host for next week's social?

I'm coming up on 10k Revenants, thinking the the premiere/install of that exhibit might be an interesting seed for a story.

Not likely it still stands, no.

Generally - a social event in a museum even with closed doors can be a good setting I think. It just needs a good story and good atmosphere.
