A Revhead’s Hangover – The Day After Fury Road
Disclaimer: Some people, when they take a sabbatical, announce it on schedule and keep professional about it. Me, I’m just like “here’s three months of radio silence due to work-and-life obligations, hope you didn’t mind too much”. It’s funny, though, what it was in the end that brought me back from the dead… (No copyright […]

The Wolf on Larping in the Great Outdoors
Since this winter seems to be a time of awful weather, unexpected temperature shifts and general emotional blahs, thinking back on the pleasure of outdoor larping seems to be the only logical thing to do. Sure, I like chamber larps and urban pervasive larping as much as the next larper, but there’s just something about going […]

9 Reasons to Larp Before You Run a Larp
There are still instances (remote areas, countries without larping traditions) which require of larp enthusiasts to organize events before they larp themselves. This post is not for them. This post is for all of those who say “oh, but 100km is too far to travel just to try larping” and “but I can’t afford a […]

While I prep stuff for the next twelve months (and trust me – you wouldn’t believe me if I told you how frakkin’ much there is to prepare), let’s sit back, relax with a cup of your favourite winter beverage (mine’s currently awesome Turkish coffee – […]

The 9 Ports of Shipping (Full Moon Special #12)

This time – for this awesome year’s last Full Moon – we discuss the practice commonly known as shipping, ships, and everything else that rocks your ocean. For the […]

Do You Speek Geek? The Great Geek/Muggle Language Barrier (Full Moon Special #11)
The other day, one of my geeky colleagues (currently I’ve got but three) dropped by at the children’s department and we undertook a few minutes long chit-chat about random stuff (such as, what’s that you’ve got printed on your shirt – oh, it’s that and that fandom because of this and that ship – etc.).

Surviving the Experience of Running a Pervasive Larp (5×5 #7)
New month, new Monday – new compilation of 25 hints, tips and tricks about larping. Before we dig in, though, let’s just keep in mind that I’ve only played two pervasive larps so far and co-GMed one (Astra Larp) – so this is definitely just a start. Still, while the Astra experience is fresh, I […]

Sky Full of Astra – 7 Things I’ve Enjoyed the Most as a Co-GM in Astra Larp
A week ago, the co-alpha and I’s twelve day long pervasive larp Astra ended with a ceremony promoting the spy recruits into apprentice agents in our fictional secret agency, “Astra”. For twelve whole days (well, the second Wednesday was a bit slow) we’ve co-GMed this incredible crew of players, both experienced larpers and total beginners, […]

Imagine, Build, Create Together – Getting Ready for Astra Larp (Full Moon Special #10)
Astra Larp, a twelve day pervasive larp designed and run by the co-alpha and I, starts in exactly seven days, on Wednesday, October 15th. As we near launch time (on the 15th, sometime during the morning), wrap everything that’s left to wrap (err… many things), the Full Moon will slowly start to wane and hide […]

Let Your Outfit Collection Grow (5×5 #6)
Outfit collections for larping need love, lots and lots of love, and not a small amount of storage space. Once you’re slowly going to more events, and your first outfit doesn’t fit the characters you play any more, what are you going to do..? The approach to fantasy outdoor larping, or costume genre larping overall is as […]
