Geek moment abut to happen...) Well, Funny thing you mentioned LaRPs... Cause my friend and I.. perhaps in a state of Steven-Brust-Enduced-Euphoria, after reading LoCB ... where Throwing around ideas regarding sponsoring a Dragerea Based LaRP at next years I-Con convention in the North East...

The Rules would be...: No one can play Vlad.. Except SKZB himself, (if he wished to that is)....if he deems to show himself, in the case he does not, well ... it would be assumed it is taking place around the time Vlad is very young ... just after meeting Kiera, and still works for his father as a delivery boy... One must be in a costume ... must have a name and house, and be wearing appropriate house colors... Heck, we might even put in a contest for the best public discussion/argument in the "Paarafi-style-Dialogue" For which I mean that the sentences will be elongated as to describe in an ridiculous mount of words and an almost Exhausting number of sentences, the same phrase.
