Really Really is a intrusive [[meta-technique]] that is used to represent vampire powers called disciplines. It was first used in the first official White Wolf larp End of the Line in 2016. <br>It was developed by Bjarke Pedersen.
The Really Really mechanic is in its original format a two part system consisting of a code phrase and a hand movement. The combination of the two, signals to the player that a supernatural power is being used.
From the Vampire Player's guide for End of the Line:<br><br>
"The mechanics are a two part system. A hand signal and a code phrase. These two combined will alert the person being affected that something is happening.
The code phrase will always include the word REALLY two times. You will then do that command for 10 minutes or until you are told to stop.
When the time has gone, you really don’t know why you did the thing. You will not think you have been manipulated, but brush it off with you being drunk or making a bad call.<br> <br>
Vampires affected might know they have been manipulated, but not always.<br> <br>
'''Examples of powers:<'''<br>
'''“You really really fear me”'''<br>
You become very afraid of that person for 10 minutes.<br>
'''“You really really want to sit on my lap”'''<br>
You sit on her lap for up to 10 minutes.<br>
'''“You really really want to tell me how you feel right now.”'''<br>
You spill your emotional guts on how you feel for 10 minutes or until you have nothing more tosay.<br>
'''“You really really want to tell me who you are”'''<br>
You tell everything about you for 10 minutes or until you have nothing more to say.<br>
'''“You really really want to tell me what you are”'''<br>
You tell if you are human, vampire or ghoul."<br>
A modified version is being used at the larp Convention of Thorns.
