Man oh man do I love it when I discover something resoundingly magnificent, especially when I’m sure most everyone else is already aware of said thing and I’ve been in the dark. So why have I been in the dark about LARPing? LARP stands for Live Action Role-Playing game, i.e., real-life Dungeons and Dragons action, although you can LARP any # of scenarios with the right imagination. And costume.
Having spent a brief and dedicated amount of time recently watching LARP videos online, I’m awed by the sincerity with which these people do battle. And by the costumes. Definitely the costumes. This video in particular pierced my heart…”lightning bolt, lightning bolt”.
yes, I will run this into the ground.
