Interactives

Politics

Interactives or "Tavern Nights" are held on Fridays, in a private room booked for the event. The room represents 'The Wessex Arms', a pub in the city of Grantabrugge.

Interactives form the backbone of the CUTT year, offering several hours of uptime to each player every week. Many people play more than one character during the evening, coming out of the bar to change clothes. Although a steady stream of players are needed to play monster roles and NPCs throughout the evening, there is plenty of time for everyone to roleplay as well.

Interactives cost 3 pounds per week to attend, which goes towards the cost of room hire and soft drinks, as well as the printing and physrep costs of CUTT. Players earn 6xp for charactering, which may be distributed between any characters that they played for more than half an hour (please see the experience system for further details).

Interactives support a huge variety of roleplay, from politicking at the bar to plotting in dark corners, from honourable duelling to stealthy murder and from academic discussion to 'drunken' swagger and boast. There is usually something to fight, but also many characters do not fight during interactives. Information and interesting people to talk to will frequently be found at the Wessex Arms, and do not forget to chat with your fellow drinkers about their week, as you may find out things relevant to your own plans. The magical ritual circle also provides entertainment and occasionally, danger!
