Price of Inspiration is a psychological game with horror and urban fantasy elements. It is not intended to be a horror larp, but support a wide range of emotional and introspective play. It draws on the work of such writers as Lovecraft and Gaiman.
The premise is a group of artists and hobbyist attending a creativity retreat for the weekend. Player characters are welcome but not required to provide the workshop content for the event.
== Techniques ==
PoI is written has a simulationist larp. There is the possibility for investigation, but no need for characters to progress this. It explicitly has no pre-determined ending, and events are free to play out naturally.
A light meta-technique is used to play on occult elements. Certain in-game events can trigger players to be given meta-instructions via 'letters of note.'
