Preperation

The first thing you should do if you decide you want to attend the LARP is email me publications@saga.org.nz with details about the type of character you would like to play. Since the LARP is supposed to happen at a dinnner/dance function it would be a good idea to dress appropriatly and also bring some nibbles/drinks, however both of these are optional.
