Submission: Photography and Prose
System: Lost Eidolons, Accelerant
Character Name: Sahaal (he's been through various titles, but I'm not sure which one he's on currently)
Lost Eidolons is a LARP set in a Lovecraftian, steam-punk world. The players live in the town of Greyhook-- a burgh plagued by weres, spirits, and any number of unspeakable horrors. The writing and flavor of the game leads to in-depth character development and intense roleplay. Father Sahaal, played by Adam, is perhaps one of the best examples of this. Sahaal is an intricately written and performed character-- his actions range from far-reaching religio-political intrigue to cloistered scheming to grand plans of world conquest. He's not evil, and he's not good. Adam also goes far-and-beyond the call of standard costuming: he and his "retinue" sport complicated and realistic clothing, makeup, and weapons. Moreover, the appearance of the retinue fluctuates depending on the group's current situation.
Read below for a taste of Sahaal's religious prose, as well as some picture of the good father. Want more anti-heroism? Read Loralon's account!
