LARP: How to Succeed in the Apocalypse Without Really Dying

Facilitator: 
Lee Patrick

When the dead rose, the employees and attendees at Blue Sky Corporate Communication Seminars handled the problem the way they handle every problem: leveraging synergy, shifting paradigms, roadmapping strategies, and holistically approaching the disruption of the world as we know it.

In other words, they barricaded themselves inside their fancy hotel, updated their sensitivity training programs to reflect the need to occasionally shoot their colleagues in the brain stem, and carried on with their mission: teaching better communication strategies. Which was all fine until a ragtag group of survivors managed to break through their defences, get inside, and start demanding food and weapons. Clearly the newcomers could benefit from a few communication skills workshops. Good thing the Blue Sky employees have all the guns!

How to Succeed in the Apocalypse Without Really Dying is a very silly LARP about corporate drones, talking sticks, and zombies.

That outbreak of mad cow disease that jumped to mad people disease and is now mad zombie disease? Yeah, that was a couple of years ago. It's too late to save the world, the world is definitely on its way out. But you can save yourselves! With guns.

Zombies are everywhere and you're just a rag tag group trying to survive... will one of you manage zombie kill of the week? Will you encounter a dead celebrity? Will you find true love? Forget it, Portland, it's Zombieland.

Don't Mind the Donkey

Facilitator: 
Mike Foster

Welcome to Gately Comprehensive, a secondary school where no two days are the same. It could be anything, from the swimming pool being filled with jelly, a stampede of zebra through the gymnasium, right up to an alien invasion.
As the put upon teaching staff it's your job to take care of these problems, while ensuring you still cover all your classes, keep up with the marking and avoiding being volunteered for any extra-curricular activities. And all sorted in time for a pint down the pub after school, of course.

Something Bad Happened.

Not sure what, but the world really went to hell. Now zombies, bandits, and worse roam the world under the moon, and what dregs of humanity remain try to eke out a living as best they can. You are Runners, the only people brave, skilled, or mad enough to face the horrors on the surface and travel between settlements, carrying much needed supplies, intel and salvage. The night is harsh, the monsters are everywhere, but you are strong, skilled and bad-ass.

You are the only ones that can be relied on to keep everything going. Without you, everyone dies. So when the Grey Man handed the head of your chapter a briefcase and told him "This will change everything", you knew you would be the one to make it happen.

Run fast, take care, avoid the Aberrants.

And don't be outside when the sun goes down.

Rough Cuts are a series of short, focused, easy to pick up role playing systems. This one, Runners, is base around a specific consequence and damage system. The characters you play are skilled, and generally can complete any task without making a roll. The challenge comes in dealing with the consequences of your actions.
