Greetings and Salutations,

I am hoping to have much more free time in the near future and have decided to adopt a pet project: Specifically I am working on a Forsaken VSS. I know the local trend has been moving towards fewer games, but I am hoping that with spring right around the corner (supposedly its here already, but the weather begs to differ) people will find themselves with more free time. In order for this to be a successful venture though, I will need some information/help from our player base. So without further ado I present a small list of questions that I would be delighted to see a few of you answer. Thanks in advance for your time and effort on this, and I hope to see you guys soon.

1) The Forsaken are creatures of barely contained fury. They are consumate predators with a divine mandate to protect the world of Man from the horrific spirits that lurk within the Shadow. Not all is well for the Forsaken, however. They are fighting a war against their own species, a war that they are losing. The Pure, as the rest of Werewolf society call themselves, do not wish to hunt the creatures of Shadow or protect humanity. The Pure wish to rule over the world as its supreme predators. The Forsaken are outnumbered. They face a fight for their very survival and quite possibly the survival of the entire human race. The Forsaken have only one choice, Hunt or be Hunted. So, are you interested in playing Werewolf the Forsaken, the storytelling game of Savage Fury?

2) We used to have a forsaken venue in the area. I never had the opportunity to play in it, but a few of you did. I would be interested in any synopsis of the local history of this venue that the old players wish to provide. You can send me a message here or at [e-mail].

3) The Forsaken is a GREAT venue for outdoor sites. Is anyone against the use of Parks/Campgrounds etc for these games? Anyone have any recommendations for locations in Omaha or Lincoln?

4) Is therea anything else you are concerned with that pertains to this venue? Comments or Concerns are all appreciated.

Thanks Again Guys,
Don

Lincoln sites to recommend:

Pioneer's Park: West Van Dorn Many shelters available lots of places that can be out of the way if necessary to not scare the normals.

Antelope Park: Bewtween 27th and Normal Blvd on A Street: Some shelters available.. harder in summer though. I know of a LARP group that uses boffer weapons there.. unsure in SCA or NERO or what..

Wilderness Park: (Mulitple places from Old Cheney/Pinoneers all East of Highway 77) Only for the truly rustic at heart.. nothing around it at all.. but has lots of woods and lots of hiking trails and clearings. Not ideal for gaming unless we get tough role players... Bring your good shoes.. no flipflops or high heels here. Yet atmosphere could be the plus here.

Interstate Park:(Can be seen from I-180) Has maybe one or two shelters has frizbee golf there. Yet, it seems always empty there to me.

Holmes Lake Park: Lots of shelters but is a VERY busy park. Tons of stuff around it.

Oak Lake Park.( Sunvalley and Claremont) Same as Holmes busy and less shelters than Holmes with less things around it. Could be hard to get to on baseball game days though as the local field that Nebraska and Saltdogs use.

Havelock Park: 70th and Havelock lots of open spaces. Some shelters but lightly busy I would think.
