about the event
Welcome to The Continental. You'll be part of the elite of worldwide organized crime. The best assassins meet and rest at this hotel. There's a single rule: you cannot kill here.
Although it is a larp inspired by the themes of many noir movies like the John Wick universe o or others, does not touch on the plots or characters of the films. It is a fan event that uses the noir and action genres' tropes.

How will the experience be?
The glamor of blood
We are society's worst. We kill and ask for no forgiveness. We've committed atrocities impeccably dressed. Only God can judge us. Or, failing that, the Organization.
Mistrust and you will be right
Keep your enemies close, and your friends closer. Or was it the other way around? Alliances in this world are as weak as the mountain of money your head's worth. You cannot trust, even in your own group.
Enjoy: you may die in an hour
In an assassin's life every minute counts. The Continental gives you a breather. Live every breath like it was your last one free, because it likely is.
Hierarchies matter
And, despite everything else, family matters to survive. A wrong word or gesture and you're done for. In the criminal world, power relations are respected. Until the scale tips the other way, of course.
Power has a price
Reaching the top is not only a bullet away. Negotiation and playing your hand well are key to reach the top, either for you or for your family.
Appearances deceive
No one should be judged based on their looks. Age, gender or origin don't matter. If they're in the Continental, they can probably kill you with the pencil in their hands.
No forgetting, no forgiving
At the Continental you may not be able to pay in blood, but debts are not forgotten.
Betrayal even less.
your character
your character
Note: this section is being developed, and may change, even after sign-up, for the good of the game.
This event has a different character development than other Efimeral events, because we still want to make sure you get a rounded character, tied to the story and the rest of characters and plots, but at the same time we want you to be able to customize the final details so the character fits you perfectly.
Thus, your character will be created between you and us, like a puzzle where we give you the pieces and you assemble them together. Your active participation in the character creation is vital so you can manage your own fun.
