All the basic info copypasted from the website:
Practicalities
What: A Disco Elysium larp for around 100 players.
When: 18-22 & 25-29 September 2024 (1 day of workshops, 2 days of play)
Where: Old Military Hospital, Terezín (Czech Republic)
Cost: €290 €145
Produced by: Rolling & and international crew
Language: English
Location: Old military hospital, in the middle of the city. Indoors and outdoors environment. Location has basic amenities (toilets, water etc) but don’t expect high standard (no central heating).
Accessibility: Not wheel chair friendly (no elevators, stairs, thresholds). Very sensitive allergies or asthmatics may have problems with the environment.
Time: Players will be required to be in Terezín on Wednesday evening, for a full day of workshops, briefings, player meetings and co-creation. The game itself will start on Thursday afternoon and run until Saturday afternoon — with less intense or no play at all for night time sleeping (players choice).
Costumes & props: Key costume elements and key props will be provided. You bring a base layer, shoes, and any extra props you want. Costumes and props are mostly attainable by modern second-hand shopping.
Food & drink: Scheduled breakfast, lunch, and dinner (served in-game). We will provide water, tea, and vegetarian food, with the whole menu available beforehand, allowing people to bring food to address their allergies and special needs.
Design stuff
Potential content warnings: Racism, violence, physical larping, political extremism, loud noises, realistic firearms, drug use, oppression, suicide, actual work.
Design & play style: Immersive experience grounded in a poetic world. Expect some scripted stories in the form of fateplay and collaborative rather than competitive play. Individual character-specific plots. Not full transparency. Some non-diegetic meta-techniques.
Sign up process: Lottery system with certain conditions applied by organisers. Upon selection in the lottery, players pay the participation fee and receive full character and access to the participant website. Players will have option to signal they are uncomfortable playing with somebody or think somebody is not safe to be at the event.
Co-creation: Pre-written characters. Act structure with some specific limitations and/or mechanics; otherwise, players have the freedom to create. Players are not expected to prepare or create relations, have meetings, partake in events, etc., before the event. Lore is established by organisers, and players act within provided frames. There is an established overarching arc for the larp, with some set events. Artist characters will be creating art during the game.
Physical & emotional safety: Opt-out techniques & safety techniques. Some themes, mechanics or content of the larp are very general and not opt-outable (for example, “poverty”). Mechanics for violence and fighting that lean more towards simple conflict resolution than boffer fighting. Dedicated organisers on premises for safety, medical, and emotional support. Calibration and escalation/de-escalation techniques will be workshopped and encouraged.
What will we be doing: Playing out conflicts, romances, brawls, revealing secrets from the past, pursuing political goals, dealing with community problems. Creating art, music, weird performances, or just striving to have a normal, working family. The slice-of-life approach means that work is also part of the game. Most players will have 2-3 hours of some form of “work” to perform each day (not very physically taxing). Scheduled and spontaneous activities in the characters’ social groups (hobbies, families, politics, interest groups, etc.). Socialising, trading, scheming or just chilling and people-watching. There will be plenty of low-threshold activities on-site for everyone to be involved in if interested. Our aim is to create a living, breathing world. Everyone will be able to get 8 hours of sleep.

More random info and pictures of the Kerch Polytechnic incident, mainly small details regarding Vlad.
home
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
His house and room. He grew up in Arshintsevo before moving somewhere else in Kerch, Crimea with his mother after his parents split up. He was living in poverty, since the only direct provider was his mother, who was a nurse and oncologist at a nearby orderly hospital.
ammo and gun training
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The ammo he used for the attack. He used birdshot and buckshot pellet bullets. On July 18th 2018, he went to Egida Training Centre to apply for gun training.
Accordining to an interview user Skanderarrent2 posted on reddit, his trainer mentioned that he was skilled in shooting and initially thought that he had experience with firearms:
“Because he spoke very confident, self-collected. I felt that he was more mature in his soul than (an) 18 year old. It felt that he was a young adult, not a teenager, not an 18 year-old because he did everything clearly. Some people are verbose, but he didn’t have extra words, was silent. And he didn’t ask too many questions. I had the impression that he quickly learned, etc. That is, he created the impression of a trained person. The teachers noticed that he shot well, when asked where he learned why he shot so well, the young man replied, ‘I practiced shooting’”
The taining which included 4 hours in theory and 2 hours practice, cost Vlad 4,000 rubles or $62 instead of 6000 or $93. He said he had financial difficulties, and the management gave him a discount. He then subsequently earned a license and bought a gun from Oruzheinik Gun Shop during August of 2018.
purchase history and materials
Tumblr media Tumblr media
His purchase history up until the attack and what he had bought and wore during the attack. People speculate that he hand-painted the "ненависть" on his shirt.
handwriting
Tumblr media
an assignment he wrote regarding electrical safety. a rough translation of his assignment reads:
“Mapogon or an order defines the boundaries of the workplace, the volume of work performed, the scope of the work, as well as the list of employees who are responsible and perform the work. Unauthorized carrying out of work and white changes in people's permission instructions are strictly prohibited. If the work performed in an electrical installation involves the use of (unintelligible) mechanisms, then 4 technological steps are necessary KAPTAM - according to specially developed software. When performing work on electrical equipment up to 1000 V, the MO should be directly energized. Install fences for nearby live parts to which K work is carried out. accidental contact is possible when performing acidental...”

Could the woman have their own gun in the 30s?
Yes. In an attempt to curtail gun crime, there was some federal legislation passed in the 1930s that required registration and taxation on owning and selling certain types of firearms in the US, but...well, as you may know, this country isn't generally known for its history of restrictive gun laws.
The degree of regulation has fluctuated over the years and much of that regulation is done on the state level with a lot of variance from place to place. To my knowledge, though, (and discounting really localized, obscure laws, or property laws of earlier centuries that more or less excluded women from ownership of anything), there have never been any gender-based gun laws on the books here.

@fatisthenewshape is in charge !!
Tumblr media
“Omg I can’t believe how boring his life is. I know he told me before that his life was nothing but I didn’t expect it to be this bad.” Finishing up the paper work from the most boring job ever I pushed my chair in. I wonder what he’s doing in Paris right now. Sure therapy wasn’t intentional but it happened somehow and now I knew I was in his American body. Right when I was about to walk out of the office I heard my email go off. I went back to check and it was yet again another down sizing. Me being good at this job of his wasn’t on the list hit it just meant his boring job was about to get more boring !!
Tumblr media
I screamed looking at that computer. “I can’t take this shit anymore!” I slammed the door shut to the office and on the way home grabbed some beer. In the apartment that night I just stared at the glow of the tv. I was only on my first beer and I was already feeling sleepy. I didn’t want to be in this body anymore. This life was so boring !! It was so much more fun when we just talked about transfo….. I sat tight yo on the couch. Maybe this was a way to really live a transformation. Maybe this was the chance I had to really make a change. Pulling up his tumblr account i reread everything he posted. I didn’t realize how many different changes he had written about. But needless to say after couple hours I have decided on the changes I would make. Closed my computer I walked back to the living room and opened up another beer.
Tumblr media
It was a couple months of my new ambitious beer drinking that I finally had a beer gut. He has written so many stories about having one that it was odd he didn’t actually have one. This was my first change I was going to make to him. And now here I am. Rubbing this big gut while I’m walking out of this office for the last time. It was now time for me to go onto the next phase of my plan. Destroying his education was right up his ally. He always talked about being dumb. And a dog. Well he needed a job that would fit that role.
I managed to get a job at a Construction site. The work was hard and labor intensive. I sweat all day and I smelled like crazy. But I kept drinking my beers and continuing on the path that I had set for him.
Tumblr media
Making so much less made my next changes a little hard. One of the things he fantasized about clearly was tattoos and I wanted to make sure he had them. But the massive decrease in pay from the corporate world made it hard. I started asking some of my coworkers about the I tattoos and before I knew Indians out they was an artist and was offering to give me some at a discount
Tumblr media
It was long before I was making daily visits to get as much ink as possible on his body. I was loving how fast his body was getting covered in tattoos. And the looks that people were giving. I was soon looking like a walking piece of graffitied skin. I began to do other things. Like adding gauges to hjs ears. One I had them completely obliterated to the point of now return I knew that his physical changes had to come to a close.
Tumblr media
For the next part in his journey I decided to delve deeper into one of his stories tropes that he wrote about alot. Problem was that I wasn’t willing to do any of the work. I found myself on the dark web one night and with a couple thousand dollars and his social security number it wasn’t long before the stranger had logged into the federal system and began to add charge after charge to his record. Drugs, possession, firearms. He was making this man a low life thug criminal and now there was nothing he would be able to do about it. He would be able to find the chat rooms or anything to get this resolved. I even perfected his signature and sending a copy to the stranger online he used that to validate the claims of all the charges he was placing on this body. We even managed to invalidate his college degrees and even high school degree. Now he was a high school drop out who went down the path of being a hard criminal. It wasn’t long before his face was being seen all over tv. Armed and dangerous. I was now living the body of a wanted man just like in those stories he wrote. It was t long before the police came and aggressively arrested me. And I just smirked. Bring in prison was going to be the utmost change to his life that would be able to make. And from the sounds of it. With all the charges I had managed to get on his record, he was going to be here for several years. Especially after I admitted to everything for him.

Hi friend
I don’t know if ever got this ask, but I am willing to ask again
In relation to that post of what Bruce would do should Dick get wounded or worse, one cannot discount to other canonical times it’s happened
1) Dick getting blasted by Alexander Luthor Jr from Earth 3 in the event Infinite Crisis, left in critical condition and it got Bruce so furious, he picked up one of Slade’s firearms and aimed at Alexander. It only took Diana reminding him that heroes don’t break the One Rule to get him to put it down
2) When Dick was strapped to that world destroying device by The Crime Syndicate connected to his heartbeat in Forever Evil. Prime Verse Lex Luthor then proceeded to temporarily stop Dick’s heart but Bruce objected greatly to it to put it mildly and had to be held back by Selina and others from pulverizing Luthor. Thankfully, Luthor injected some adrenaline to restart Dick’s heart once the device was defused, allowing Dick being safely detached
Thoughts on these?
og post in reference
Yes!!
When Luthor's son blasts Dick, Bruce goes absolutely ballistic
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
HE ALMOST KILLS LUTHOR'S SON WITH THE WEAPON HE HAS FORBIDDEN HIS ENTIRE FAMILY FROM TOUCHING FOR THE MERE FACT THAT HE ALMOST TOOK AWAY DICK.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Infinite Crisis (2005) Issue #7
It takes Wonder Woman drawing out a freaking sword in order for Bruce to back. All for an "almost".
And during the iconic Forever Evil scene -
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Forever Evil Issue #6
"Luthor, you hurt him and I will kill you!"
Tumblr media
Forever Evil Issue #7
Batman almost strangled Lex Luthor to death with his bare hands and would have succeeded had Luthor not literally electrocuted him off of him.
If Dick dies Bruce absolutely will break his one rule - no killing. He also breaks another non-negotiable rule of using guns and on top of that, using guns to kill people?! It's like a cascade of breaking nonnegotiable rules if Dick were ever to die. 1 - no killing, 2 - no guns, and 3 - the biggest one. No killing heroes. Which Bruce flagrantly attempts to destroy in the Superman vs Batman movie. Honestly, if Dick died, the world would burn by Batman's own hand.

i'm not discounting the possibility that i'm just an asshole who's predisposed to a fairly low empathetic capacity for men generally speaking but i feel like this kind of article always kind of manages to miss the point re: men's sexual entitlement...i think teenage boys getting caught by these scams and going so far as to commit suicide as a result is absolutely heartbreaking but those are KIDS. so why the fuck does the article start with the story of a 32-year-old MAN who seemingly within hours of being contacted by a random woman was willing to get his dick out at work to send a picture of it to a complete stranger...that's not even a romance scam! acting like there's an equivalent between a 16 year old kid panicking about being blackmailed + has easy enough access to a working firearm that he can make a split-second decision to kill himself (which is itself another element of the gun control problem in the US) and a grown man in his 30s falling for this kind of scam is just dishonest and frankly irresponsible imo. these are two different issues.
i think this comment is also salient: "Also guys in general just don't learn the same amount of caution as women. Women also get horny but they learn from a young age the bad consequences if you trust the wrong person. Or they suffer a whole lot. Men get too comfortable with letting their genitals take over their judgement". how honestly ignorant and self-involved do you have to be as an adult man to think that any woman cares about your dick at all never mind enough to see a picture of it within hours of first contacting you...? get a grip man

WELCOME TO PLAYTOWN/POPPY PLAYTOWN- CHARACTER REFERENCE #6.
KICKIN "CHICKEN" LE COQ - DESIGN AND DATA.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
INFORMATION AND DATA.
Name: Kickin "Chicken" LeCoq
Age: 27
Height:2'5 mt/6'5 fts.
Species: smiling critters creature. Roaster silkie (chinese silk chicken)
Occupation: bountyhunter/seaplane pilot.
Genre: male (he/him).
Sexuality: bi
Magical usser type: alchemist.
Birth place: Olde River (Playgrounds).
Birth day: July 18th.
Personality:
"Luckiest star" or Kickin usually appears to be the typical tough guy bounty hunter or the flirtatious pilot who has a lover in every port where he lands; a shameless man, without fear of what people will say about him, without any sense of danger or how far he will go. Catnap describes him as a "magnet of chaos who knows no failure."
which he usually repels at first.
Once you get into trust with him, he is friendly as a capybara who loves bad jokes and spending time relaxing or doing a sports activity for pleasure; Noticing many times that they seem annoyed that he does not have enough to go to an event with them, that some work crosses his path on an outing on several occasions.
He is someone who loves to lend a hand to his friends and the people he cares about, even in the worst moment he mentions a couple of times «well, what's next?» taking out in advance a part of the plan that the person has in mind, not very legal from how he obtained it; but better not to ask questions about it.He is a rooster who ignores the opinions of others and tends to be cynical and blunt, especially with authority figures over unresolved or personal issues.
A constant comic gag is that sometimes his methods are… too violent or really crazy. So the critters have to stop him from doing something crazy
A constant comic gag is that sometimes his methods are… too violent or really crazy.
or that when splashed with water, the cheap feather dye falls off and attracts the attention of one of his thousands of rivals and they start fighting at a bad time.
Tumblr media
about his work and daily life.
Unlike other critters (and the general public) he does not have a fixed work schedule, but will often depend on being required for the missions or jobs he has as a bounty hunter; which maintains 3 basic requirements to accept a job=
1. does not carry out assassination missions or attacks against other lives.
2. will not accept a mission with children involved (unless they are rescues).
3. He should laugh in your face if you do not offer him a minimum of ₱200.000 or 12.000 carats in galyostro crystals and he sees you as a high class (if he accepts missions of little or almost no denomination, but he hates when rich people go overboard him with their arrogance). When he is at work he usually disappears for weeks on end and catnap or hoppy tell him the news that happens in his absence, having to endure the phrase «SACREBLEU! SO MUCH HAPPENED WITHOUT ME BEING THERE?!» or «bien bien...but don't look for me when you need something dangerous later...»
He often works alongside Catnap on some cases within Main City as an informant or support force if a case turns violent.
In his free time he spends his time repairing his beloved seaplane and other equipment... to end up going to Hoppy's shamelessly asking for a discount, going to Picky's restaurant or arguing with Bubba at work so that he doesn't turn him in to the law.
Magic data (and other skills):
As a bounty hunter he has great physical capacity and intelligence based on survival and street malice; but he also has skills in=
1. knowledge in fights and how to take advantage of their physical disadvantage.
2. knowledge of the use of firearms.
3. non-legal acquisition of valuable items (cursed objects and relics remaining outside of its scope).
Although he is an alchemist, having no formal studies or education; He cannot use a fixed element like Hoppy, but he has the innate ability to alter luck so that it is in his favor and can do a basic transmutation of mutating metallic materials to the size of bullets and firearms.
According to Hoppy, if he had formal training, he could transmute objects into valuable materials.
other random data:
favorite food: veggies barbecue «easy to make, delicious, cheap and with a large number of variants to combine...c'est une bonne affaire !»
Favorite dessert: waffles with ice cream «We can all have a petite luxury from time to time...»
hated food: canned food «specially The military preserved food, ughh!!»
smell: ylang-ylang
strength: physical resistance, insight, charisma.
weakness: braggin.
favorite physical appearance: muscles «they look good yeah?~»
hated physical appearance: plumage colour «When I dye my hair they tell me I look like a poussin, when I don't the stupid! police chase me... GIVE ME A BREAK!!»
person you respect most: Hoppy «Dieu, She's the goat!!»
person you don't want as an enemy: Bubba «Don't send my plane to the junkyard!s'il te plaît!!!»
hobby:gambling, independent studies, and visiting Picky's restaurant.
Some crush?:«The popular kindergarten art teacher who likes flowers, but I know she's out of my league»

Discounting mystical powers and firearms, who would win in a fistfight: Lambi or Logan?
haha this is fun omg- All of this would depend on the plot point, Logan is just a regular person who knows how to fight and shoot, but if we have God Lambi fight him, she'll still lose because of size difference alone.
Tumblr media
If we have post-crowning but pre-godhood Lambi fight Logan, I think Logan will still lose, at that point Lambi has gone through so much exercise during crusades that they've earned their musculature & strength with or without crown magic. However, they're used to being able to crush bones with their hand so they might be thrown off by the sudden loss of OP grip strength. Not that it would really matter in the end, a hit from Logan just does not compare to a hit from Lambi.
Tumblr media
If logan and pre-crown Lambi fight each other it'll be a lot more even. Im not sure who would win, maybe Logan in this case? Lambi had a lot of luck surviving before their beheading. In my head pre-crown Lambi was more of an escape artist and would always fight dirty, and the crown gave them the ability to completely overpower enemies that they used to barely get away from prior. Logan has gotten into fistfights and shootouts, and knew how to fistfight before the suffolks died. so if the fight stays clean no matter what, Logan wins. If the fight gets dirty? Lambi can win.

Here he is, the special boi, Moxxie. Thankfully he didn't take as long as Mille's redesgin did being he was gonna have a more simpler design. Anyways to the notes:
I wanted to go for a professional yet causal look for Moxxie considering his personally. Much later in the story he likely dresses a bit more relaxed once he kinda feels more comfortable and confident with himself. He also looses up a bit much later personality wise as well as I.M.P become much closer to each other. When we get therein the story I'll likely make another redesign to show that.
In my AU, Moxxie was already a trained assassin before joining I.M.P, being taught at a young age and has done plenty of hits for his father and his business (I'm likely gonna rewrite the whole Mafia thing into something that makes sense because um...). One job however made him start questioning what he was doing being how these hits weren't just 'competition' he was taking out. You'll see once I post his profile up.
The tip of his tail is suppose to be a spade, not a heart (because ya know, greed ring, greed imp, gambling) but I don't think I did a good job with that.
Moxxie is Knowledgeable about firearms but fuck if I'm gonna draw them often.
I still can't draw hands.
So here yo go, our discount Imp John Wick. Plan on drawing some M&M things later just because. Rewrite for Mox will come when it comes but basically got all his notes done. Just gotta write words.
Made with Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop CS6 for final touches. Okay to reblog, Feedback is encourage.

Taking a firearms and toolmark class right now, and it is annoying me because when doing research you have to wade through hundreds of NRA gun-loving redneck blogs before you find a reputable source.
Now, I'm from rural Northern WI. We're talking, deep in the forest, anyone who wasn't living on a foreclosed farm was probably a logger, townsfolk once tried to stone my mom out of the town for being a witch kind of rural. Inbred enough community that one family had three sets of twins that each died before the next set was born and they were fraternal twins but each set looked identical to the previous set. Stuff like that. The true northwoods experience.
And once, a kid who went to my mom's school died, and his dad brought his gun to the school and threatened to shoot. This was in maybe the late 70s or early 80s, and around there, the school's rule was that you had to have your ammo on a different shelf than your gun. Most people hunted at least a portion of their food because groceries were too expensive. The man was dead in seconds and had over 20 gunshot wounds. Some would say this is an argument for everyone having guns. The first time I heard that story, I thought that was the point my mom was going for. I mean, our family had over 40, and I'd been taught to shoot from a young age. My mom said it was a failing. The guy was bereaved and in a mental health crisis, but he wasn't likely to actually open fire. She thought it was a situation that could've been de-escalated if anyone had taken even a moment to think before reaching for their gun. Of course, mass shootings are awful and we can't truly know how it would have gone.
But every time I have to read one of those sources where the author is like, "In those self-defense situations when you need your gun, you'll want to be able to fire multiple rounds quickly/have the best stopping power/whatever"
99.99% of people will never need their gun except on a planned hunting trip or perhaps fucking their partner with it.
Learn to use your goddamn brain and maybe preventable firearm deaths in the US will go down. If someone tried to mug you and you shoot them, you're the bad guy there. The mugger is desperate and broke and probably doesn't want to kill you. The few examples I hear are always stuff like this. Someone shoots a mass shooter? It has happened. But there have also been times when someone successfully de-escalated a situation where someone was threatening to shoot up or bomb a place. I won't judge anyone for carrying a gun for self-defense, especially after I got old enough to learn why my grandpa did (that's a story for another time), but I sure as fuck will judge anyone who talks like you might find yourself in an action movie at any moment and a gun is the best solution.
Are you scared? Are you ready to feel badass and so prepared? Click this affiliate link for a discount on .38 Special.
God, I can't stand it.

Mark: Welcome to the Wallace Facility.  Our focus is on safe and respectful study of humans involved in unexplained phenomena.  I understand you requested study on yourself?
MacKay: Yes, I think I ought to stay here.
Mark: What phenomenon have you observed about yourself?
MacKay: I can read minds.  Puts people off.
[A pause.  Mark and MacKay stare at each other.]
Addendum: During this pause, I heard SCP-7987's voice, although its mouth didn't move and Agent Murray didn't hear anything.  This voice responded as if the entity was aware of what I was thinking, although I wasn't deliberately communicating with it.  As I recall, the communication regarded SCP-7987's so-called 'mind-reading' and its ability to 'send' mental communication to nearby people. - Agent Mark, 11/05/2023
The interview room's equipment didn't pick up any sound during this time. - Agent Murray, 11/05/2023
Mark: (to Murray) Are you getting all this?
Murray: All what?
Mark: (to MacKay) If you have something to say to me, please say it out loud so my colleague can transcribe it.
[No response.]
Addendum: SCP-7987 replied, and its mouth moved, but only I could hear it. - Agent Mark, 11/05/2023
Mark: Did you get that?
Murray: Get what?
MacKay: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll stop fucking with you.  You can hear me now, right, darling?
Murray: Affirmative.  We appreciate your cooperation.
Mark: Did he say something to you?
Addendum: I was looking at my screen and did not see SCP-7987 as it said "You can hear me now, right, darling?"  The room's equipment did not pick up this comment. - Agent Murray, 11/05/2023
SCP-7987's mouth did not move after it said "I'll stop fucking with you," and I didn't hear its next words. - Agent Mark, 11/05/2023
MacKay: I'm sorry!  I'm sorry, really, I'm done now.  I'm talking normally.  It's just so much more effort to talk this way!  And slower!
Mark: Did you get all that?
Murray: He said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, really, I'm done now.  I'm talking normally.  It's just so much more effort to talk this way.  And slower."  Did he say anything else?
MacKay: No.
Mark: (simultaneously) No.
MacKay: I thought you'd appreciate a demonstration!
Mark: We do.  I'm not angry, Mr. MacKay.  I'm fascinated.  I just want to make sure this conversation is recorded accurately.
MacKay: Ah, don't call me 'mister.'
Mark: Would you prefer Miss?
MacKay: Just call me MacKay.
Mark: I can do that.  Would you mind putting that on his file?  Is it 'he?'
MacKay: 'He's fine.
Mark: You'll be 'it' in official documentation, but that's standard procedure.  All subjects of study are 'it.'  For impartiality.
MacKay: Right.
Mark: Thank you for approaching us with this, MacKay.  We're delighted for the opportunity to study this phenomenon.  As long as you cooperate and follow our rules, I'm sure your stay here will be pleasant and comfortable.
MacKay: How long will I be allowed to stay here?
Mark: As long as this phenomenon is observed.  Maybe longer, in case it recurs.
MacKay: Oh!  Great!
Mark: Room 11 is free - let's put you there for now.  Follow me.
End Log.
