Characters: How to sign up for game!
Hi there, if you are reading this you have probably considered playing Last Flight of the Albatross at Judicious Consequences
Well it is a short game, just 2-3 hours, but it helps if you
can read your character in advance.
There may well be loads of spaces for people to sign up for on the day, but
some people like
to be sure they can play. You can sign up in advance by e-mailing me here,
assuming of course
that you have also signed up at the Consequences Freeforms page!
To help me cast you, choose 3 characters
from the list who sound acceptable for you to play. E-mail CJ, with your 3 choices in order of preference!
I have included hints in case you feel like
dressing for character. The game is set in April 1916, and there are many
excellent sources
for costume on the web, but a smart shirt or nice dress is always good! :)
