2017 - Anarch - David Ashby
Introduction and Background:
Introductions - Hello! I am David Ashby and for years I have been an active member of One World by Night. It started out with a simple conversation at work one day about Dungeons and Dragons which evolved to discussion about LARP. At the time when my work buddy asked me if I wanted to try it out I was skeptical if I would enjoy it.
Man was I wrong. I fell in love with playing the game and interacting with people at various levels in the Org, including meeting up at National Events. Over my decade of playing I have enjoyed having many great scenes with so many people both at games and online.
I am a loving Father to an almost 4 year old daughter. Spending time with those I love and the family I am creating is how I like to spend most of my week. I'm a machinist by trade but am looking for a new field of work to take advantage of my degree in drafting engineering and design.
I am looking forward to running a Genre I have grown to love.

Outside of OWbN
I have been playing various tabletop and independent LARPs for years since I learned about the world of D&D in high school. The obsession moved from there to LARPs such as 7th Sea and L5R. I also have playtested and given suggestions to home brewed games over the years.

Personal Statement:
Personal Statement
I want to keep the Anarch genre that we have create in OWbN going. I am looking to expand on what we have and what might be coming out soon enough through the various V20 books that keep getting released, while at the same time giving plots and ideas for the PC’s willing to get into what the genre really is about. I know I can do the job and have the right mind and attitude that is needed.
My personal guidelines on how I plan to act include:
-
Use a clear head to make all my decisions.
-
Be easy to get along with and tell people ‘NO' when it is needed. (Remember I am a Father.)
-
Respect people's’ boundaries and be willing to run within comfort levels.
-
Remember that everyone deserves a shot. Whether it be a throw down at exploding chess with Smiling Jack or the negotiation with Neo Carth Elders taking over your territory. Don’t just narrate the scene for anyone based on untouchable sheet size. I am willing to give chances as long as you're willing to take the consequences of your actions.

Goals
I have a lot of goals to do but listed below are the primary ones:
-
Give fast turnaround time to inquiries to the office. I know that fast answers help move story along and I wish to give players, STs and other coordinators such.
-
Create plot for all Anarchs that want to join for the enjoyment of a new expansive story.
-
We have new Neo Carth material in the wings and I wanted to touch on that this year with the help of my sub-coords
-
Working with Anarch and Camarilla games to promote their Anarch PC/NPC’s.
-
Work with my team to make sure that anything new coming up gets addressed fully and within a timely manner. Whether that be an updated Packet with approved new materials, or an addition to the Bylaws.
-
Work with the other Coords to generate new plots and ideas.
-
Look into the Creation of an Anarch ONLY secured list.
-
Promote Anarch unity in the face of the other sects.
