Please reach out and I'll convince you to make this your first

A large sandbox/festival larp held once a year at Coopers Lake, PA. It centers around a war between 5 dragons, but that just provides the framing. It's really about creating emergent play and shenanigans for each other.

Thats your first mistake

And of course the end of the story is that I have no idea who he was and I have no way of reaching him

A dramatic cut away just as someone falls into death saves or as a monster rolls a crit, but before damage is rolled, is BEAUTIFUL

Wall of Force

Yes, exactly!

They breed and their numbers expand. As they do their latent psychic abilities grow and they get more intelligent. Eventually, a hoard of them can rival an arch mage in power.

I cannot praise @drowningmoon.bsky.social enough. I really didn't know how I was going to feel about it, till I say down and read all the materials. Then I feel in love.

Also, if you would like to do a call or video chat sometime, I would love to talk about this more in depth

I did the math 30 years ago and my local boffer larp (60 to 100) regulars at $60 a head was probably clearing a slim profit. Now that would struggle to pay site fees.

It's a neo-noir Greek myth inspired larp that talks about complicate families, corruption, and can the ends justify the means.

We are trying to get together a run of Concord Olympus by @drowningmoon.bsky.social

I sent her your bluesky info.

As @sidequestdesigns.com mentions, the SE has always had a fairly strong larp culture with Atlanta being sorta a hub. We have access to a lot of state parks between Tennessee and Georgia.

But, I'm struggling to find an affordable, good venue for a free form pervasive in ATL right now.

Wage stagnation is ultimately the root of a lot of this. We pay the same for larp as we did 30 years ago. It's hard to raise prices to sustainable levels that would let you compete for venues when half your player base makes nearly what they did 30 years ago.
