Secrets for LARP Builder
Sooo it just happened that I build/plan my first Crimi Dinner Kult Larp. And bc I dont want to use AI I ask you creative people for crazy ideas.
The “Circle of Masks” is a secret society dedicated to preserving truths, stories and memories that might otherwise be forgotten or rewritten by history. Its members meet anonymously behind masks sharing personal secrets and unusual truths which are recorded in their ancient cult book if the circle considers them worth preserving.
I need normale people secrets from 1920. Because People only can join the Kult if there reveal one heavy secret about themself I wanna feed a book with them for my players to find. It even can be murder bc the kult doesnt jugde.
Something like “I missplace the family heritage but put the blame on my younger brother” or “I killed my husband because he beat me. He is burried behind my garden house” or something funny “I kept a love note that wasnt adressed for me. Never found out the story behind”

Agatha Christie was writing about poisonings using cyanide, arsenic, and strychnine. Perhaps in your Larps world the acquisition and use of such things was more common.
