Last night I was out to prove that an innocent man had been framed for murder, and the most powerful judge in town was a corrupt jerk with no concern for justice. With the help of said innocent man (freed from imprisonment early due to release papers which I may have forged...slightly) and the proprieter of a sweet shop who also peddled opium, I gathered evidence of this heinous fraud and presented it to a rather harassed policewoman, and together we confronted the judge at his own daughter's debutante ball and had him hauled away. Of course, his daughter soon learned that she might not be his daughter after all, because the mother she never knew was the wife of the wrongfully imprisoned man, stolen from him then cast aside! In the end, justice was done... and my career prospects in the legal profession were looking rather rosier. LARPing - a highly underrated experience! LARP = Live Action Role-Play, you get given a character in a story and turn up on the night in costume and ready to be that character. You have goals for the night and a few people your character should know, everyone else has goals too, and everyone tries to get what their character wants as secrets are uncovered - 40 people or so in the ones I've been in. This one was based on Sweeny Todd and similar Victorian gothic stuff.
