2 weeks ago we went to a L.A.R.P. event at Roger's Grove Park in Longmont, CO. Which is a drive away, but the road tri[ was nice. And it was great to be out and the kids got to play in the creek (i just wished we all would have worn better shoes) I wore flip flops and the boys had sandals on, so walking became an issue. Next time I know tennis shoes always. For those that might not know. LARP is live action role-playing game (LARP) is a form of role-playing game where the participants physically act out their characters' actions. The players pursue goals within a fictional setting represented by the real world, while interacting with each other in character. The outcome of player actions may be mediated by game rules, or determined by consensus among players. Event arrangers called gamemasters decide the setting and rules to be used and facilitate play.
So kinda of like “Dungeons and Dragons” or even better would be, it's like halloween, for the whole day. Eric has been wanting to look into a group and I thought it actually sounded pretty cool. We’re going to try a couple more events before we commit to the ($10) a yr fee. Unfortunately the only uncool thing is, the boys are too young to play. So we’d need a sitter, and these are DAY long events. They have them in different parts of CO, so it can be up to an hour drive just to get there. So I’m not too sure how that will work out. But if we can make it work, I think it will be fun. I have to come up with a name, a backstory, age place of birth, size of family, type of childhood, where I trained, my past….that kind of thing. I think I’m gonna go Druid, Druids are in tune with nature. With their spells and abilities, they can control the elements. Druids have a wide variety of abilities that aid both the group and themselves. They also have some attack spells, and they can dish out both magical and physical damage.
