You know the old adage that 'Many a true word is spoken in jest'?
Well, after I posted my little jest, I got to thinking how it might work. Well, one thing leads to another and before you know it, the whole joke has taken seed, sprouted, grown up quickly and is already setting fruit. I have the blessing of the organisers of the LARP, and the enthusiasm, if not downright glee of many players. It WILL happen.
I am now definitely running a game. So there will be roleplayers, roleplaying their characters roleplaying a roleplaying game, in a tavern, in a field and all in character. The danger is that with all that recursion, we might break the universe; the real universe, not the in-game, game universe.
The Orc sat at the table in the tavern, frowning at what the old Elf had said. "My character, the female undead mage, attacks the darkness. She casts fireball."
The old wood elf DM says "Your fireball illuminates the darkness and for a brief time you see what looks like a Gazebo looming out of the darkness."
