The Wushu planning took an interesting turn towards the end of last week. After several days of silence, I prompted the group to get back to talking about their characters and the team they belonged to. Then hilarity ensued and the John Woo-esque adventure slowly started turning into a Leslie Nielsen film with martial arts and firearms.
As a for instance, the character names quickly became Jose Cuervo, John Coors and Johnnie Walker. The current team name is Licensed Cross-Border Operatives (LCBO).
I'm really starting to see this whole thing as two experiments in one. The first is to see how Wushu works and whether it's any fun or not. The second is a bit more complicated, and has a little more to do with certain RPG theories than I would ordinarily care to admit. I was very curious if we could spread out responsibility for the game and creatively develop our setting, theme, mood and the game environment in general. By Sunday night, I should have a better idea about the success of both experiments.
