Hypothetical Situation;
[quote=“Hypothetical Situation”]You’re attending a LARP campaign session. You’ve spent time, effort, and money composing your costume and your props.
The rules of the campaign allow other characters to physically take your props, via something like a Thievery skill.
The “stolen” props do not disappear from play, but are still present and you are able to take them back via whatever means are provided to you by the rules or suitable roleplay.
At the end of the campaign all “stolen” props that have not been repossessed are either directly returned to the person they were taken from, or they are placed on a Lost & Found table for you to retrieve.
During downtime, if the “stolen” prop had any significance in the rules, the in-game object is considered lost, and your character no longer possesses the in-game object the prop represented. Your character is still able to attain another in-game item of the same function that can be represented by the prop, so long as they have the in-game means to do so (e.g. enough coin to buy another one from the equipment list).
The thief gains an in-game object of the same rules significance, if the player of that character can provide their own prop to represent it.[/quote]
Would you be uncomfortable attending a campaign that allowed prop taking for the duration of the session?
Could the above scenario be improved in some way to solve your discomfort?
