NZAE: Cosplay Chess By Auroa. 07/04/10, 05:40 am |
| Sup guys. As part of NZAE, we'll be holding some Cosplay Chess matches (scripted and live), and I'd like a list of whose keen to be a chess piece. So far, this is scheduled Saturday for 3.30-4.30pm, after the dance gatherings (at 3pm.)
If you don't know what cosplay chess is, heres a spiel:
- Spoiler:
What: Cosplay Chess is live human chess, where people play as chess pieces. When a takeover occurs a pretend battle is fought between the two pieces. Cosplay Chess is just that more awesome, because the pieces can act in-character. The Chess match can be random, or themed: girls vs boys, good vs evil etc.
How it works: This is small chess, so the game lasts around 15-30 minutes. The mat is a little different and there are less players needed. 20 pieces total, and 2 players, more people can participate as extras and summons (TBA)
1) On a giant chess mat (thanks to Mandie_Chan), all pieces (from pawns to kings) will sit on their equivalent starting squares. 2) Two ‘players’ will play a chess match, and will tell the piece (you), where to go, (i.e Naruto move two squares forward.) 3) When one piece takes over another, an ‘in-character’ battle scene occurs, with the loser being the piece that is taken, and ‘dies' in a dramatic way. Note: Chess can be live, or scripted - meaning moves have already been planned out. Scripted can be more fun, as we can set up take-overs so particular characters can fight each other. Depending on how many people are keen for this I may PM some pieces with important designated roles.
Notes: ~ You do not need to know how to play chess to be a piece, as you will be given instructions on where to move and who to fight etc. Basically all you have to worry about is moving when/where you are asked to and putting on an epic 'fake' fight, win and death scene. ~ You will need to pre-plan your epic little fight/win/death scenes, (unless I pm you and designated a special role) if you are not sure what type of moves to make, discuss here for ideas from others, or PM me and we can plan. ~Once I have enough people keen and have confirmed, I will assign you what piece you will be - this depends on what theme the game is, and what character you are cosplaying as. ~First in first serve, confirmations will take priority - I may allow extras/summons depending on numbers... But in any case we will be having more then one game, so everyone who signs up should be able to participate in at least one of them. xD
When you sign up to be a chess piece: 1) Tell me if you are confirmed, or maybe (i.e if you confirm, then that means you are definitely coming to NZAE, and will definitely be a chess piece) 2) Tell me what character you are cosplaying, what the show is called, and if this is a confirmed or a maybe cosplay. Note: (I want both confirmations before May 1st.)
People keen: Name: cosplay (show)
Confirmed: We are full! ILUGUYS!
Players: (LOL DIGIMON VS POKEMON) Mandie_Chan: Terriermon (Digimon) Riven: A YELLOW POKEMON 8D
Pieces: Aura: Leona (Magna Carta) noodles: Youji Sagan from (Loveless) noodles friend: Natsuo Sagan (Loveless) seraphik: Justina (Magna Carta) JVCA: Random Kimono Chick (Random xD) Yunca: Sakura panda suit (Naruto) Misa: Matsumoto (bleach) Yukino: Chopper (One piece) deceptivemagick: Ikuto/death rebel (Shugo Chara) Bex: Amulet Spade (Shugo chara) moonlight293: Gin (Bleach) Nox: Red Man (Traffic Light) Ryan: Green Man (Traffic Light) - not as hot as he thinks he is Rocky: Sailor Jupiter (Sailor Moon) RainbowMoonDust: Ashford Euphemia (Code Geass) MajorNightside: Lisa Yadomaru?

And Ryan would like to play too. He's the green traffic light man.
