Going to the Fallout LARP tomorrow...
So tomorrow the post apocalyptic Fallout LARP starts. I'll be cut off from anything normal for about 3 days. It'll be crazy and amazing, just like previous years, I'm sure.
Was out at the site today fixing up my sleeping arrangements and the store my character is going to run. Or, it's more like a moderately big hole in the wall where she sells base necessities, most importantly cans of food (without a label) and medication.
This character, Katya Hollander, has certainly done a journey! She started out as the prostitute the whole village spit at and just used for their own twisted pleasure. She was the only one that could take it when any of her costumers wanted to go violent... or wanted her to go violent on them. She was also an alcoholic, and had an ex-husband who was selling drugs in the village...
Her son, who she wasn't allowed to see grow up though, has returned. She managed to take over the bar and brothel where she used to work, and got sober. Her son ended up with the caravans and makes sure there'll be provisions for the village. She ran the bar and brothel successfully for a couple of years, but now she's been out maneuvered by an armed gang that is also running a bar in another of the old broke down houses...
So this year, she's started up a store. With the help of her son, who makes sure she'll get some good provisions and wares for her store. Being a previous bar owner AND now running the store, makes sure she's one of the riches people in the village. So she has some political power there. Money = power.
Some in the gang running the bar has started treating the village as their personal land. As if they were dictators. My character does NOT like this, so one of my plot's is going to be to try and start a revolution against him. AND I also have a romantic plot. Katya has been hooked up on the same guy for years. But he has abandoned her, so now a new character is introduced that I apparently is going to fall for little by little... :-D I hope he'll be played by any of my old friends to! It's always easier to be romantic and cute with someone you know. :-)
How all this will end up, I have NO idea! X-D Which is half the fun. Wish me luck!!!
