Roleplaying

Yesterday evening and all of today was spent roleplaying (the old-fashioned sitting-around-a-table kind). It's a campaign that's been going on for a while now, that's loosely based on White Wolf's "World of Darkness", but pretty much without the darkness. Which means that there are all sorts of supernatural critters walking around. Each kind tries to keep its own under control, in something vaguely like the WW vampire's Masquerade, only not half as serious. Anyway, our player characters are all different kinds of critters, and we're a sort of joint troubleshooting team for cross-species trouble (euphemistically known as "the Cooperation Group"). My character represents the vampires. This time he learned a few things. First, that wererabbits are extremely fertile critters. Secondly, that that fertility can rub off on a vampire who feeds on a wererabbit. Thirdly, that the werecritter alpha pair really frowns on vampire/wererabbit crossbreeding.

I think he'll have to leave town for a while.

The idea and the little sign at the bottom of the pictures are gleefully stolen from snowgrouse. Copy and use as you like (although if you link to the ones on my server, be aware that they may go away without warning).

Older and far away

Today we went up and visited my relatives in Värmland (about 250 kilometers from where we live), since my grandfather's 85th birtday is around now. It's nice to see that he's still healthy and active at that age. Otherwise, it was a bit so-so. It's fun to see the cousins, even though we have little to nothing in common and it's mildly distressing that the ones I clearly remember when they were born are now at university or doing military service.
