& the voices of unique experiences inside LARP
Article by Hadley Frost Hello everyone! We all have to begin larping somewhere, but what happens if there isn’t a larp nearby? Maybe you don’t have the funds to travel to the larp you’ve always dreamed of. Well that’s okay! Let’s get down and dirty and build a larp for you and all your friends! Now some of us might have seen some large production larps and go “Oh no,...
BEING BETTER: ONE LARP AT A TIME Article by Hannah Gray There are times in everyone’s lives that we feel stuck, directionless. We go to work – day in and day out – and it bores us. School seems pointless; the dreams we’ve been studying for seem so far away. Unachievable. We escape to other worlds, running down roads paved with pages, heeding the call to adventure. But sometimes, even...
Article by Bailey Williams If you had asked me two years ago about what I thought about LARPs, I wouldn’t have an answer for you. All I knew was the pop culture jokes and that Felicia Day exposed the Wincheter boys to the world of Boffer larp. I wouldn’t know that there were different types of larps until I discovered Armistice Arcane. Photo by Kristin Story I wasn’t involved with...
Article written by Meg Schley (That Chronic Illness Life) on Oct 22, 2019. Hey Larpers, I hope you’re having a lovely week. Today, I wanted to talk about an issue that is near and dear to my heart: The lack of accessibility in LARPs. Now, I can’t really speak for blockbuster LARPs. I’m a college student with limited funds, so I’ve never been able to get to one. I can, however,...
As many of you know, 2019 has been a very difficult journey for me. I walked away from 4 larps with a broken heart and found that it would take many months to find myself in a form of recovery. Today I would like to announce to all of you, the people who support my art, that I am rebranding. This decision has taken years for me to develop a...
Hi there, fellow LARPers. My name is Meg, and usually I look like this, But sometimes I look like this. A bit about me: I’m a senior in college, studying German and Translation/Interpreting, I’m a huge Dungeons and Dragons fan, and I’m chronically ill and disabled. How’d I get into LARPing, you ask? Well, thank both my love of DnD as well as my illnesses. I had been sick in...
A chilling experience at the larp event Armistice Arcane featuring the Order of Cernunnos. This is the second event of the Crowley Chronicles. Larp produced by Peculiar Crossroads. Inspired by the Penny Dreadful genre. Larp: https://www.armisticearcane.com/ During the filming of this video, I had to replace my camera. Thanks to the support of friendship and the larp community, I was able to crowd fund a new camera! Incredibly grateful to...

Through the support of the larp community I am able to produce larp related content. This support is offered in many ways, however Ko-Fi has been the most helpful for funding special projects that allow me to create and give back. I am currently documenting my adventures into the world of live action role play. My quest is to create a place that inspires the exploration of larp. There are...
A few months ago, I went to a larp called Secrets of Caldera. At this larp I played Vruuk Thissle, a roguish orc. Her character inspiration came mostly from Han Solo. I also had played a large orc in an Elderscrolls game who was a master lock pick! Vruuk’s costuming came from many years of planning and donations from the larp community. I have been working on for some time...
