Hello, World.

Flora the only real danger is the poison ivy. there is a sporadic nettle bush here and there but they grow next to the pond and i can tell you from all my time lurking in the woods at night i have never run into ether of these. but if you are over susceptible to poison ivy its around in a few spots. other flora of interest is the mulberry tree in the middle of camp the black berry and wine-berry bushes as well as black caps and a few established local food plants. there's also an established group of plants i call LARP flora which hail from the thousands of burst spell packets nonnatives like flax and bee-balms mostly. the trees in the area consist of white pine, elms, a few willow, some hundred year oaks, and lily poplar, and some swamp& sugar maple.

As for fauna you have of course the local black bears there numbers fluctuate but the know how is the same they want food and they do stupid black bear stuff to get it. other flora ive witnessed at camp is a few stray cats, the wild turkeys you hate, a master thief raccoon, foxes of both the red and brown variety, a skunk (seen near the back paths), a few opossums, bird life of all types(including great horned owls and large wood peckers) , and most interestingly a rare group of coyote that run threw the camp looking for scraps in the wee hours of the morning. no need to worry about them though there really rare and from what I've heard from them the few times that i have they run threw the camp not stopping at any one place there a lot more jumpy here then out west.
for any other questions on the nature stuff i am more then happy to oblige.

Don't forget the bats. They are not food, even if they fly into your mouth.

When it comes to plants & animals... just use common sense. Leave them alone. Don't touch anything you don't know. Lock up your personal possessions and food. If there's an issue or problem, contact a staff-person to handle it. These simple rules can pretty much cover anything both IG & OOG while at an event. Again, feel free to ask questions, peruse the forums & rulebook... both sources cover a lot of stuff & no doubt will answer any particulars you may have.

Last but not least... please come to event when you can & have fun.

EtAl: Thank you! Esp Curt, that was far more comprehensive than I'd hoped! Seems all stuff I'm (on occasion painfully) familiar with, so I doubt I'll be much surprised. Though I'd not thought about the non-indigenous stuff from the spell packets! I can't wait to get the time to NPC, I think I've got as clear a view of the site as possible sans being there (I think I have the map nearly memorized), but nothing beats on-site look-about.

You've all been very helpful, thank you! I can see why my friends love KR so!

If you want to be in the clear with the staff with your EMT kit, bring your certs (once you get them) to game and show them to the safety officer, Jackie Means.

Naturally, will do!
