All NPCs will be played by the GM team. However, we know some people may not be able to commit to coming along regularly, and we're always open to people dropping in for a session or two (whether it's that you don't live locally, or simply that you're busy when we run sessions). text/html 2025-01-30T10:24:00+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://nightknights.oxfordlarp.com/character_creation?rev=1738232640&do=diff Character Creation Summary To create a character, follow the guide below and submit a character using our submission form.
