It was either The Beatles or an Austin Powers wig. All in all, I think I made an excellent call.

I bought a wig today. It is sort of in the style of The Beatles and it is black.

I worried that it might be too feminine, but the fact that it's disconcerting as all hell to look at me when I'm wearing it is a great sign that it's sending on the gender signals I want it to. Yeeeeeeeeees. I probably won't be larping for a few weeks yet, but call this incentive to work harder. The rest of the costume will be important, but I am glad I decided to go purchase a wig instead of simply tying back my hair. Now I just need a pair of men's (boy's?) dress shoes, dress pants, a dress shirt, and some eyeliner. And something to bind my breasts.

For those of you were are newer to my friends list, I participate in a Vampire: The Masquerade LARP in the summer months. Costuming is one of my favourite parts of the game.

I also need to nail down some details about the backstory and exactly how I am going to de-uselessfy Damian. theclevermonkey had some fantastic suggestions, I am just not sure I can convincingly roleplay the best one. I must also practice various other gender indicators - I cannot smile so much when I am in character!

I use to play Vampire: The Masquerade with my EX. a long time ago. I also use to play the card game too. I think I still have some dice lying around somewhere.

We never use to dress up though. We would kinda just situate ourselves in a hovel and play with our imagination and dice. I would kick ass sometimes. It was pretty cool.

But, then I started getting a bit scared of my EX. (part of why I broke up with him) because he started to get into Satanism and such. He started lugging around The Satanic Bible and living by it.

Too weird for me. So, I went my own way.

Anyway, that is sooo cool. I love Vampire: The Masquerade. It's fun to pretend your a Vampire ~ I love Vampires ~ They are sooo romantic.

Take Care and Have a Good One!

Much Love Always,

I've never played Vampire tabletop. Maybe one day. Maybe not. It's not my favourite setting and there are still so many more to explore.

No one I know has really gotten into Satanism, so far as I'm aware. The extremists of the gaming community XD
