TM larp E.o.Y.E. End of Year Event

Majestic Mr Fox — Sat, 06 Sep 2014 07:07:18 +0000

Hey all. I know I haven't had very much to do with the page, but this is me (Matt) picking up the pace a little especially for this last big event of the year. I thought I might add to Alex's last announcement, and to tell you a little about how we want to run the event.

Like Al said, you need to come up with teams of 4-5 members (feel free to invite new friends to join our group for the event) Come up with a theme for your group, like Ancient Roman, Spartan, Cavaliers, etc. Then, democratically choose a group leader to put the team name in, so that we can keep score of teams on the scoreboard on the day

Please all keep in mind, that your team leader may need to give orders in some events (Spoilers!) So try to choose someone who you think can do that job, and help your team win at all costs.

Try to come in some kind of costume that is appropriate for use in public, and for you to run around fighting in, because it is probably going to be considerably much hotter when the event comes around.

Think seriously about what sort of weapons you want to make, and how they can be used in the events/battles etc. We will release a list of challenges/battles we intend to fit in on the day, as well as how many points you can win for your team in each.

If you get carried away enough (If you ask me, you can't get too carried away with doing this stuff), you may even feel like making a battle standard for your team.

I will keep posting more things you need to know for the event, such as minimum requirements for weapons/shields etc. Along with some specifications for weapons so that no-one gets hurt.

Thanks all

Matt

a new event!

Finally we might have a chance to get together again for possibly our last event before the year twelves graduate. This event however will be very different to most others. you will have to form your own warband/raiding party/faction of 4 to 5 companions, get to making your weapons and designing your costumes. Each team member will pay $5 entery and the winners take 70% of the total proceedings (the rest will go toward food and drinks).

The event will include some different ideas we're in the process of cooking up, like;
. team vs team combat
. single combat stand off
. team quests (challenges)
. and points for best costume

As for building your own weapons you and your team can design them however you like, however there are some safety standards you will have to meet, just so's that we can make sure that everyone stays safe whilst we're conquering eachother. One of the admins will type up a page on that at a later date.

Please note, this is not parallel to our fantasy storyline, (which between you and me, hasn't done so well) Your group/warband/raiding party/faction is yours to come up with, for example, Alex, Matt and Ben are going at the event Viking themed, so, get creative, come up with ideas, (run them past us first please), and let's have a really good event.

As for the actual date we will probably host the event in three weeks time, at the start of school holidays so make haste and choose your team mates wisely.

Just to get an idea of numbers can you guys please just go to the bottom of this page, and 'rate up' to show you're interested even if you dont have a team just yet.

So, get on out there, and start making those banners, putting on your warpaint, and donning your armour, because this's going to be bigger than the battle of 5 armies.

new changes

Spiros — Tue, 17 Dec 2013 07:43:58 +0000

well i have been talking to Ben and Matt and there are a few changes we have made. first of all we are scraping the guilds idea, to complicated. we are how ever going to allow people to form guilds out side the game as personal groups of 3 or 4 who can complete quests togeather.

we are also using the merchants guild as a way of buying weapons from other races inventories. once you buy, say a human long sword in the game (note you do not need posesion of the weapon in real life) you can sell it at a higher price to other players who are elvish or orcish. this means you can earn money in the game and every one will have acces to all weapons.

previously the story line has been fixed. we relied on a likely out come to move the story line forward, but we have decided that this is not good enough so we're going to try and write a goosbumps style choose your own story adventure! this will be hard and any help will be most welcome, so ill start up a disccusion to take in your ideas.

and last but not least we are finaly begining to settle on specific weapons for each race. if you can guess which sword belongs to which race (of the three swords on the group icon) ill give you 10 gp toward your next game.

A force to be reckoned with (chapter 3-4)

Spiros — Thu, 24 Oct 2013 11:24:50 +0000

story line
since the Alience was formed, Praven and Veluca have fought the invading forces of Sargoth out of the homes. now they have formed a plan to build a castle on the great bridgeand trap them on orsinium. Sargoth however has seen the enemies plans and has decided to reveal its secret weapon and unleash the assasins guild upon the enemy.

what is larp

Spiros — Wed, 15 May 2013 09:32:14 +0000

many of you may have questions about races, classes and towns. this segment explains their diferences and what they are.

Elf's (Bosmer)
the elf's mostly inhabit the city of veluca although like the other towns there are some who live elswhere. the elders of their society are the leaders and are responsible for commanding in battle and supporting the local merchant and delmaris guilds (delmaris is the elvish word for swordsmen) who pride themselves on their swordsmenship and fight without a shield. other than the usual two classes of swordsmen and archers they also can train as a dark elf who combine the grace of the elves with the brut force of the bezerkers.

Humans (Breton)
the humans generaly center around the town of paraven although like the elf's they can be found elswhere. paraven is run by the lords of the area in a democracy who support their own merchants guild and a warriors guild. the warriors guild trains it's soldiers to fight as a single unit and focuses on team spirit. of their classes, the only one that stands out are the rangers. these shady characters fight with knives at close quarters but are intent on using their massive long bows to stop any enemy getting that far.

Orcs (Orsimer)
the Orcs are a brutish race run by a high council of trible leaders who run the encampment of sargoth. no merchant group is present in orsinium (the continent the orc town sargoth is located on) but the other two guilds trade with them occasionaly. istead they have a barbarian tribes and assasins guild.
the barbarian tribes guild trains its warriors to be fearless and feared by their enemy, with a bit of swordplay mixed in. the assasins guild is at first a seemingly unlikly orcish guild but with a good nose and more hunting experience than you could poke a stick at, the orcs are the best in the business. the main class of the orcs are the bezerkers. these are the most feared of all orcish warriors as they have no understanding of self preservetion and, although proficient with all weapons imaginable, enjoy weilding a large clup and smashing their foes into the ground.
