Lazlo Society...where exactly is the home office?

[MurderCityDisciple]

Is there an actual home office for Victor Lazlo's paranormal society?

Ann Arbor, Michigan seems a good spot if there isn't one officially.

I think it would be a neat project to flesh out an actual location.

Ivy covered classic architecture, cheezy 80's modern or something else?
Single building or campus?
Secret underground batcave or totally transparent, on the up and up?

Per page 223 of the BTS2: "As for the Lazlo Agency, its a network of concerned professionals, gifted individuals, and victims the likes of which the world has never seen, and which, despite its 40,000+ active members, worldwide, remains pretty much a secret."

That being said, there are other bits and pieces that suggest that there could be branch locations in the larger cites.

My home game is based in Seattle, and the group has actively created a secret office out of a warehouse. the first floor holds the van they ride in, their equipment and gear, gun vault, and other odds and ends, while providing space to practice armed and unarmed combat, exercise, workout and so on. The second floor holds 2 office rooms (managers office and secretary's office), a file room, break room,and a conference room. Its big enough to have scenes take place in them, but its small enough that its ineffectual to the world at large.

I should probably re-read BTS, but I seem to recall some mention of the University of Michigan somewhere in the text. Methinks maybe the original edition.

Oh we've met before Mr. Dawes...I played the Hawaiian cabbie/diviner at the POH. I still need to get off my butt and write up that stuff for the Rifter we discussed. I need motivation.

Back at the height of Palladium's financial troubles there was a thread on Lazlo encouraging support for Palladium and outing them as one of the major backers/sponsors of Lazlo.

I missed that thread.... someday I'll need to return to the Society.

Indeed, you should.

I'm still waiting to get my email saying my registration is accepted in the society boards hopefully it comes soon.

I've always tended to look at the Lazlo Society as being a group of independant people that don't have official offices and only get in contact with people through obscure methods such as websites or back alleys. I tend to prefer to believe that if the Society ever set up a front office the supernatural would be quick to strike and deal with such a threat. But to each their own.

Weird, usually they're pretty timely about that.

What's your handle on Lazlo, auyl? I saw that a "Aerakiel Moondragon" was accepted today.

[auyl]

Thanks, I'll try that.

[Hibik]

Good luck, Batman!

...crap, I always do that.

You should check again to see if you were activated.
Sometimes it could take me a day or two to activate an account there.
If you are still not activated, PM here your username on Lazlo that you created.
