What, or who, is Lore?
We believe that if you asked any of our players or staff, they would say that Lore is a community. We are a community of role-players that have been running this game for more than a decade. Our staff has a lifetime of experience with our larp and others in the tri-state area. Our rules and game play have changed over the years as we have adjusted our core rulebook. We work hard to listen to the needs of our players and adapt as we grow. We invite anyone to come and grow with us as we tell our stories and share in the adventure. The goal of our staff is to tell a story that our players can interact with and add to. Most importantly we are always open to the feedback of our players as we try to tell the best story possible.
What is LARP?
Put simply, LARP is Live Action Role-Playing. This is something most everyone has done at some point in their life. As children, we would have played things like “Let’s pretend” or “Cops and Robbers” but as we age, most step away from the live action part and simply role-play. We strive to bring individuals back together in the outdoors to interact with one another through staged combat and role play. When you come to a larp, you can either be a PC, player character, or an NPC, non-player character. PCs are the protagonists in our stories while the NPC’s work with our staff to be the antagonist. These stories are plots that can last a weekend or years and your interaction in the story determines the outcome.
Where does this story take place?
Our game takes place on the continent of Elizadale. The Royal family resides in the capital city of Candrea Bay. Most individuals will simply refer to the continent as The Kingdom. While The Pendragon royals have ownership of the land, most towns and regions govern themselves and live in harmony with the royals. Our story focuses on three towns in the vast Kingdom. These towns differ greatly and each has unique and interesting backgrounds. Our towns are Fairhaven, Baronswell and Marshfield. Fairhaven is an outpost near wildlands. It’s governed by a military unit that defends the borders from the dangers of the wilderness. Baronswell is a land governed by an ancient barony. The land itself is rich in magic and the dead are always wandering. Marshfield is an old swamp town filled with strange creatures and rumored to be a den for villains. Even more interesting are the PC’s and NPC’s that shape them. We hope you will join us and help shape our story.
