    Prophecy from the Red Wastes

    The Gift of Opportunity was bestowed upon a Land Bereft, though from such Fountains of Plenty did Potential overflow. Risk outweighed Reward, and the Great rallied together to give Limits to Truth and Subdue Possibility. The Cage was Wrought with Thirteen Locks, the Keys entrusted to Nine...

    Thanks, Everyone

    Hey y’all, I just want to say thank you to everyone for all of the good times over this last season in Gavaria. I’ve been playing Alliance for just shy of 15 years - half of my life - and this year has still been some of my favorite time LARPing. Our chapter has an extraordinary player culture...

    Mainlander friends of Atupal, I bring you good tidings from the Isle of Terramera! I am sure you will be pleased to learn that Wallamog the Smack - Third Watcher of the Sea, Ninth Watcher of Gavaria - has flourished during their time here with us! Their numbers have grown in the last months...

    October 523 Rumors

    “It’s been raining for a month now. Some days are better than others, but even the drier days are still so overcast that I haven’t seen the sun in weeks. Floods are everywhere, and I genuinely wonder how much longer it’ll take before land truly does become sea and Ris’sunus wins. Maybe we should...

    Sunken Salvage Operation

    Adventurers of Atupal, Let me sing you a song recently added to the records of the Pale Navy, to be sung from the decks forevermore in commemoration of the brave sailors whose mettle and bravery were enough to overcome a grisly fate: The sky was gray and cloudy and the wind was from the east...

    September 523 Rumors

    “I know we had a bit of a dry summer this year, but it’s been raining for weeks now. Anivia Amberheart has been working day in and day out researching the storm, but it isn’t looking good. Every Foresee the Weather comes back with the same result - rain, rain, and more rain - and every time she...

    The Will of Ris'sunus

    (Out-of-game note: Dark clouds begin to spread from the ocean towards the Gavarian mainland, coating the sky all across the nation in only a matter of hours. Soon, it begins to rain, sometimes in light drizzles and other times in torrential downpours. This weather continues like this all across...

    The Will of Ris'sunus

    (Out-of-game note: This voice is a deep, guttural sound, heavily muffled and barely audible, as if from a very far distance. But even at this length, it shakes with infrasonic power, and you feel the words resonate in your bones more than you hear them in your ears.) LAND SHALL BECOME SEA AND...

    The Will of Ris'sunus

    My friends across all of Gavaria, This has been a difficult year for all of us. With each passing day, we all face new facets of strife, new layers of difficulty piling higher and higher on our shoulders. Every time we make progress, we immediately discover new woes, and safety and security...

    Alliance Rulebook 2.1 Draft 10

    Page 3: The last sentence has no punctuation. Page 23: The description of Game Abilities has drastically changed from the previous 2.0 rulebook, to the extent that it changes longstanding functionality of what can and cannot be used when under an effect that restricts Game Abilities. I am...

    Unfair Change in Dryad Metal Aversion

    In previous versions of the rulebook, a Dryads’ aversion to metal has been a roleplaying requirement that metal items make a dryad very uncomfortable, but can still be touched/used/carried by a Dryad. That is all fine and dandy; it’s meant to be a race where metal isn’t your thing overall, and I...

    Alliance Rulebook 2.1 Draft 5

    I personally disagree and fully believe feeding a potion to someone should be a counted action as an "action [that] cannot actually be performed for reasons of safety or reality but must be considered as taking some time to complete" especially since it is an interaction with another player that...

    Alliance Rulebook 2.1 Draft 5

    Now that I mention it: the same goes for picking up an unconscious body, etc.

    Alliance Rulebook 2.1 Draft 5

    As a follow-up point to this: there's been some rules debate in past on whether or not feeding a potion to another character is an action that merits a 3-count or not, based on ambiguity in past rulebooks. Previous editions stated that you didn't need to count drinking a potion yourself (as long...

    Anomalies in Magical Travel

    Celestialists of Atupal, It was wonderful meeting with you recently, and I thank you once again for your assistance in speaking with my colleague, Simon Ebbinbarnes. His situation has obviously been enormously distressful for him, and I intend to do everything in my power to help him - as well...

    Alliance Rulebook 2.1 Draft 5

    The rulebook has no references whatsoever to Paging, Pages, orange headbands, etc. Also, while a white headband is mentioned as something to put on when you dissipate, a white headband meaning that a player is out-of-game is not defined anywhere in the rulebook. A hand/weapon on the head for...

    The Play's the Thing: Heroes Week Theatre Competition

    As May comes to a close, we all know that Heroes Week is a time for remembering the great heroes of today and yesteryear. This remembrance takes many forms, but in my mind, there’s only one true way to preserve the greatness of a hero: THEATRE. SEE the greatness of heroes come alive on...
