I would be careful with the Sharpie. Although they're labeled as 'non toxic' for children to use, there can be harmful effects for large areas and/or extended use and repeated application. Although a small, not really covering mark should be fine. I remember attending one game where someone...

Unlike many other areas, it seems to me that the Malestrom is more of a war zone than most other places I have been. I do not see anyone planning on setting up a home there, raising children and crops and making a living there. The reason that most artisans perform two batches is not to make...

Just an FYI for people who fly from chapter to chapter, starting in Jan 2018, residents in the following states will need to have a passport, permanent resident card/green card or a military ID to board a plane. The Real ID Act of 2005 states that state-issued IDs from these nine states do not...

Preparing bones isn't too hard of a process although it does take some time. Do some searching on google. For the ones I did for small accent bones: remove as much of the meat as I could by hand Let the bones soak overnight in water Scrub the rest of the meat off of the bones with a floor...

I would first suggest someone who knows about leather crafting take a look at you in the armor before trying to adjust it. From the photo, the piece isn't made for action but to be worn only with the torso in an upright position (sitting and standing). The leather smith could tell you what...

How did you find out about larping, or what got you into larping? Worked at a company in upstate New York in 1990 called Costume Armor that made plastic armor for movies and TV (don't want to throw a star into a pool with 50 pounds of metal) and someone came in to have an extra large custom...

To be fair, the site that you played at for your first event (Camp Krem in SF Bay area) doesn't really lend itself to your typical 'rogue' fighting style. The common fighting areas have a maximum side by side room of roughly five abreast with the sides either "fenced in" by other buildings or...

Ah. Well I am sadden to hear this. Personally, I am amazed that someone who is part of a group whose only real purpose is to fight outsiders would stoop to removing direct resources to that end. I could see someone wanting to steal a few more silver if it meant being able to buy something to...

Although it would be best to have you wearing the armor and then showing the issues, is there a way for you to take a few photos of the armor, showing what the issues are and what you'd like done? I'm sure that many people here could come up with an answer to it but would need a little more...

Hello everyone. This is Kon, the bartender with the cane. I just wanted to say that I quite enjoyed meeting you all recently and wanted to address something that transpired. I had found that my Artisan Battle Rod that contained 20 curative potions and almost 40 various protective and...

Having Kon excused from the stressful duty of healing and caring for those during combat by having someone else take on that noble duty by relieving him of all of his potions and scrolls. Now he can focus on other things.

Getting myself ready for an upcoming game, I came across a few workshops my character had from a campaign long ago. And there are times that one campaign closes and another starts and everything you own (except LCO and even then they could) follows your character to the new campaign except the...

As an FYI, I will be bringing a bunch of (100+) sodas for my character to sell IG for IG money so I'll be in the general area of food prep for a goodly portion of the game. So if you need an extra hand during the times feel free to let me know but I'd rather not be put down for an actual shift...

And the packet should not be packed solid. There should be some movement of the birdseed/filling within it.

I would see a wolf Wyldkin being upset about someone wearing a normal wolf pelt as a human would be upset over someone wearing a monkey pelt. But as mentioned above, there may be some chapter specific IG situations that would have Wyldkin upset about wearing pelts. I had a white tiger strip of...

However in order to operate the crossbow the only thing you could have in either hand is a bolt packet for a 'forearm strapped' crossbow, yes?

I'm sorry my intention didn't come through clearly - I have edited the comment above hopefully to fix this. To me, the fact that there are articles out there with people upset over others using black or yellow makeup shows that people are coming forward and upset over it - even if it's not in...

The first step to get over is to realize that what happens in a game does not/should not equate to real life events/beliefs/etc. unless the larp in question focuses on this. If we wanted to get to the nit picking of it all, we are condoning/teaching people that the most efficient way to deal...

The thing is that I get a different feel for the game with each chapter that I visit. The main thing that makes it 'feel' like Alliance in every chapter are two things. First is that I'm playing the same character that has built up a reputation and connections within the world. So when I head...

True. Despite the 'rules deficient' setup of them, I use thrown weapons with the majority of my characters, not only because it helps add to the atmosphere but as well as having me create some rather interesting things to throw. I've also been able to smuggle a few of them into places where no...
