Three on Fairytales

A friend suggested that he wanted to run a game where the characters were all protagonists from fairytales. I have taken this concept for three potential convention games in the future.

"The Fall of the House of Gingerbread" (LARP)

SETTING: Chaos

You have been sent to infiltrate the strange House of Gingerbread, a place where the Thelbane claims no power. They play at games using rules that seem at times... insane. The third son always wins where his two elder brothers were previously given the task. The red shoes should be locked in a closet. Your lascivious "uncle" Goldie says, "This bed is just right." Life is fairly idyllic, but why does your "grandma" Yaga come by and squeeze your finger at night? Could she be fattening you up to feed her own Serpent?

"A Little Beef, A Little Ham"

SETTING: Shadow

Mary, Random's daughter (and heir) has been having strange visions that have sent her far away from Amber. It's a race between you and the Chaosians to find Mary, and navigate the obstacles of her strange shadow of destiny. Where men are Men, women are Sorceresses...and sheep are really, really, really scared.

"Silver Bells and Cockleshells"

SETTING: Amber

That wacky Regent Florimel is at it again! Having designed the grand gala of her dreams, she has invited princesses from throughout Shadow to come dance for her brother Corwin's delight. Your job? Convince Julian and his rangers to attend as escorts. Oh, and keep Bleys away from the punch bowl, Caine from killing one of the guests and wearing her dress, and Llewella from getting all soggy.
