A hopefully new NPC in need of some help

[Nyko]

Hi I'm completely new to larping but I've been reading as much as I can about it. I would really love to be a NPC but due to some vision problems I can't drive. Is there anyone from Maine that would be willing to give me a ride. I live near Farmington. Also, with the way my computer's setup I can't see any of the rule books.(it's on high contrast and that makes the words disappear) Is there any other way to read them?

If you are using firefox there should be a button that will let you download the pdf and reopen it in Adobe reader.


I'll let the Maine people respond to the other bit.

That's what I've been doing. When I open it up as a web page the screen is white which is too bright for me to read. But then when I download it the writing disappears, except for the one that has a plain background that one was fine. It only happened to the ones with a different background.

Any way for someone to copy and paste the key parts; particularly anything to do with NPC's?

Most of the rules are also on the wiki, which can be found here: http://occamsrazorlarp.com/rules/index. ... =Main_Page

Is that readable for you?

Occam's Razor uses the Core Accelerant rules; if you can't read the version they linked to on the site, a google search will probably net you another copy. If you can't find one you can read, don't sweat it - they go over them briefly before each game.

Yes I can read that. Thank you!!!!

Hey there! Glad to hear you're interested in NPCing OR!

1. John and I are two GMs from Maine who live in the Lewiston-Auburn area so you're quite a bit north from where we are, but it could be workable for the event in November--unfortunately, since I will be missing our October event, we will not have a second car traveling to the site so there wouldn't be space to carpool with you. We do already carry two other NPCs with us + LARPing gear. If you were able to get yourself to L/A from Farmington and have an arrangement for a late Sunday night transport back from L/A to Farmington, we might be able to make it happen for November! (You'd sort of be tied to a GM schedule which happens to involve arriving much earlier to site than most everyone and leaving much later!) If that's something that works for you, you can drop us a PM here on the forum or an email sometime at either coco@occamsrazorlarp.com or john@occamsrazorlarp.com.

Besides us, I don't know anyone off the top of my head that travels down from Maine. But there could be! Hopefully, they'll respond here!

2. Be advised that the wiki has a lot of out-dated information in it as it was the precursor to the rulebook. (This is why we've taken the link for it down from the main website.) If you'd like to PM me with your email address, I think I can track down a document that will work better for you. Let's talk about it.

3. We also have an NPC guide in the Notices section right here on the forum: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=79
