In this article I am asked questions by my subscribers, and I answer them to the best of my ability. This weeks comes from a good friend of mine, Robby.

“How would you best describe a weekend at a LARP?”

A weekend at a LARP can be summed up into one word. Pandemonium. But in a good way.
From the start of the event, until the moment the game world is switched off you never know what will happen or what kind of interactions your character will have next with another player or even a monster depending on the day. I fondly remember my first LARP experience (barring my childhood experiences).
It was a Small Vampire The Masquerade LARP in Savannah, GA.
Hunkered in a closet, silently wondering what I had gotten myself, into as the sounds of fighting and the moans of my fallen brethren could be heard. Although my character was fearing for his life, I was having a blast. And from that day forward I was Hooked. The rest of the weekend was spent in utter glee and happiness at my newfound love for all things LARP. But I digress.
A weekend at a LARP is a euphoric mix of happiness, fear, anger, and the occasional bout with hunger. At the End, it is tempered with sorrow as the world you have lived in for the past several days disappears and is gone without any chance of return until someone once again yells those wonderful words “LAY ON”.
Now I have myself all psyched out for this season, and its nearly two weeks away. Thanks for the question, and please keep them coming folks.
