Hello everyone,

I wanted to share some info that might interest you.

For almost 15 years I have been an active member of a close-knit freestyle RP/chat community called WBS - World Broadcasting System.  I have mostly just played a large variety of characters there, but have also ran a few RP/Chat rooms myself.  I have met hundreds of good friends through this network and have many that I am still very close friends with.  I have gotten the chance to hang out with them in their state or country and they have likewise made trips to visit me.  I have had the pleasure of them joining me for LARP games (a few of them are now in love with LARP because of this), Conventions, the Labyrinth of Jareth Masquerade Ball, Gatherings, and other SoCal Events.

The reason I share this info, is not just to promote WBS, but to share with you the news that I am again running a RP/Chat room on this network.  This time it is different, however, as I have decided to tie in my LARP event, Xatrian Crux, to the room.  You can now bring in your existing characters from both Xatrian Crux and other LARPs, and also bring in brand new characters to play with.  You can RP or just chat with another person who may or may not be a LARPer themselves (it is open to LARPers and the general online RPer), and you can choose to submit a summary of your RP session to me, the room and LARP owner, to have the storyline/characters/etc included in the actual LARP itself.

To join in, please first visit the special WBS Intro and Entrance Page I created for all of you (see link below).  I created a quick start section (for all those who wish to chat OOC, chat IC, RP, help me run my room, or run a room of their own).

Currently, my room is the only LARP-related room on the network, but there are many freestyle RP rooms you might enjoy there too.  I am presently adding new features to my chat room, but it is up and running and I encourage you to stop by my room, invite someone in for a chat or RP, explore the network, or hang out and welcome others. 

Please Note: You might see that the room is very quiet sometimes - at least during the start up period.  Some moments are busier than others during the day/night.  I will make a point to be there at least once a day, as this room is brand new and will take a little while to gain in popularity, as my other rooms in the past have done.  Fortunately, I have a reliable group of RPers who already use the network and will show up as soon as I alert them to my new room (doing this today).  I want to get this place jumpin' at a comfy minimum of at least 10 players per day like my other rooms were. 

I need your help to do this.

Contact me if you would like additional info.

You can also access this Intro page through LARPSpace.com, LARPAlliance.net, and XatrianCrux.com .

My room is "LARP: Xatrian Crux".  Registration is free on WBS and it is easy to start.  The link above will give you the basics to begin chatting with a character, but if you get confused, just shoot me an email or ask me in the room itself.

Hope to see you there!
