  Upcoming Events LARP Support Night, Friday, September 10th: Makeup!

Get together and share creative makeup secrets (scars, bruises, fantasy design, etc.) and also whatever else you'd like to share and work on. The focus will be makeup, but feel free to bring costume, prop, game system or other types of LARP related work you'd like to share and/or get help with.

This will be the night before the Beautiful Madness changeling chronicle (see Links Page) being run by Wyqued, so this could be helpful for anyone playing in that (PC or NPC) that might need/want help.

So, come and hang out, get scarred up, try something new, perfect and share something old, trade and improve ideas and generally come play with makeup and have fun!

On a side note, please no glitter! Makeup with glitter in it is okay, but no loose glitter please! Just a personal preference from the folks who have to clean up (and live) in the house hosting the event.

See the event calendar for specifics and to RSVP (please RSVP, so we know how many folks to expect).

  Upcoming Events Events: BOFFER DAY!!! (Saturday, August 14th)

Come and help repair (and maybe construct) some boffers. And then... we fight! If you already have some experience, come and play with boffers a lot. If you've never done it, come and see if you like it.
We will be supplying boffers and materials for repair/construction (our boffers are all home made; we don't have any of the cool, fancy latex ones... yet). This is not a game event, but rather a chance to get some hands-on time with a boffer or two before your next boffer event (or just come have fun fighting with boffers). There may be some scheduled events and types of battle/duels/etc. For those who have never tried, there will be instruction and kind, gentle and patient teachers. Our boffer games lean toward softer boffer action, so there will be no whalloping of each other or actually trying to pummel your opponent into submission.

More details, time and place to follow. Keep checking the Events calendar and in the SHAGLARP Monthly Events forum.

  LARP Camping Trip!

Ikelos writes "Hello everyone,
I'd like to encourage everyone to mosey on over to the One-Shots section of the forum, and take a gander at the post on a LARP camping trip this summer. The thread's been mostly ignored since October, and though it's still pretty early in the spring, I think that getting our ducks in a row now will make the whole process of organizing this much, much smoother. (Yes, smoother is a word-albeit an awkward one.)
So, help a girl out! Please post your (reasonable) suggestions. Look for LARP Camping Trip under the One-Shot Wonders section.
Thanks,
-Mo"

  Upcoming Events Chronicle Game in Portland!

Wyqued writes "Beautiful Madness is a chronicle game coming to Portland. For those who do not know, there are two types of LARP sessions:

A One-Shot is a one session stand-alone game, usually with pre-generated characters, though sometimes you can create your own, that is only played once.

A Chronicle is a long running game with multiple sessions, usually with a character you create and play multiple times.

A Game of Beautiful Madness

The protagonists of this modern fairy tale are the changelings, or as they often call themselves, the Lost. Stolen away from their human lives as children or adults, they spent what seemed like years or even centuries in Faerie, chattel to beautiful but inhuman lords and ladies. Fed on faerie food and drink, they gradually became more fae themselves, their bodies shifting slightly to reflect their roles. Some, however, managed to escape. Holding on to their memories of home, they found their way through the winding thorns of the Hedge, the barrier between the mortal world and time-twisted Faerie.

  Gaming News How Lovecraft Helped the Role-Playing World

I came across this article in the examiner. While I am not as old a gamer as some people here (I only got into RPG/LARPs about 7 years ago) some of the more experienced gamers might be able to give their two cents on the subject. I do know that Lovecraftians are keeping the cult alive, what with our HP Lovecraft Festival and Cthulhu Con and even SHAGLARPs patrons to the genre with our awesome Call of Cthuhlu game coming in October (at a real haunted house even!!)

  LARP News Save a Gamer Foundation

We came across this great video about Save a Gamer Foundation. It's created by Seventh Kingdom IGE, a boffer LARP group in New Jersey. Overall it's well done, and quite funny!

  Upcoming Events LARPers Take A Cruise!

Intercon Splash 1 is a convention type cruise that LARPers can attend in October, 26-31st. It takes off from New Orleans, and cruises throughout the Caribbean. This is their second year running, and it looks like the first year was a great success. They have all kinds of activities. They even have services for corporate, honeymoons, and family reunions.

  LARP News LARP featured on G4

G4 Underground is a television show that covers "other subjects other networks won't touch." Tonight, Sunday 9ET (right now actually, sorry about the late notice) they are featuring a boffer style LARP. I don't have the G4 cable channel, and from their website, it doesn’t look like they have shows streaming online, but I am sure it will be somewhere.

  Gaming News White Wolf Releases the title of their new Genre!

Well, it's been known for a while that White Wolf would be doing a series called Geist, which was assumed to be similar to the Wraith series. Just recently, they released the idea for the series: Geist: the Sin-Eaters.

"A rulebook for playing the Sin-Eaters, mortals who have passed through the gates of Death and returned, bonded with the unusual shades known as geists. An expanded look at death and the Underworld in the World of Darkness, from simple ghosts to strange threats such as the Kerberoi. Provides new player types and antagonists for crossover chronicles as well as chronicles focusing on Sin-Eaters."

The release date for Geist: the Sin-Eaters will be August 2009. Not much is known about it, but White Wolf, when replacing their message boards, has created a forum just for the series.
