Anyone formiler with any good Live Action Role-Playing Systems we could play at the con?
The Legend of the Five Rings one is good one for samuari style games. http://l5r.alderac.com/rpg/larp.html
White Wolf has their Mind's Eye Theatre which is pretty popular and can be used for a good goth game or tweaked for a supernartural anime style one.

After a long absence, your fearless gaming coordinator is back. I don't know much about L5R, but I'll try to find a GM or two... any offers?

As for White Wolf, I should be able to get the local Vampire LARPers to make an appearance. I don't know if anyone is doing Werewolf or Mage LARPing, but I should be able to find them.

I do have a Mage GM lined up to run tabletop. He's had a good chronicle going at OSU. I'm sure he'll find a good story for the convention.

By the way,
I've been asked to put a schedule together by Feb 1.
If you want to get on it, start letting me know.
When I get a framework setup, I'll start publishing it.

I would try to have the story anime based. Like if Vampires, you could do Vampire D? Or the Record of Lodoss?

Dude! Record of Lodoss War LARP would OWN!

If someone would loan me some DVDs I would try and make one.

I might be able to help too. I have them on tape. I could tape them for you some how if given the tapes. I got both series on 4 VHS tapes. Tv/OVA. Record of Lodoss would probably be the best since anyone can join in. ^_^

I have the DVD box set of the TV series (Chronicles of the Heroic Knight). I think I *might* have the OVA on high-quality DVD-rip. I definately don't have any of the movies or Crystania.

Does anyone have the Welcome to Lodoss Island movie special? Has that even been fansubbed? I want to see it!

I heard that was just all the segements at the end of the TV version put together and with some added things along with it. But I haven't heard if it's been fan-subbed or not.

Jesus Tittyfucking Christ, LARPing is bad enough when running about the woods with some boffer swords and casting magic missle with balls of foam or some shit. But to LARP a video game or anime....at a convention no less....


I suddenly have this itching feeling to take you five's lunch money.

HEY, a bunch of my friends and I would LARP Cardcaptor Sakura in between musical practice during high school! Don't be talking smack about anime LARPing.

And by you and a bunch of friends, you clearly mean You and your friend who you had to bribe into doing it. And it wasn't so much as role playing rather than running around your parent's back yard and the surrounding area with sticks.




Anime LARPing is pretty lame. I mean, don't other larpers atleast try to make something up for their setting? I'm not sure how these things work in the Wild World of LARPing.


I still want to take your lunch money.

Hey, nice attitude.

It's what I'm here for...

I think something like a FMA roleplay or something would be cool or something old school like voltron. hehe

I never have lunch money, good luck with your hunt. Oh wait, I have 3 pennies...only 3...I guess you can have one...only one...

Anime Larping can be ANYTHING...(including running the yard with sticks and stealing money) The only difference between it and regular larping which is based off of fantasy anyway (Lodoss War is Fantasy) is the story behind the larpers...which would be Ed and Al searching for the PH stone or the fight for the kingdom as in Lodoss war. The thing is what "System" do you use. Such as Neros or Armtard or running around with sticks.

No differance really compared to normal Larps, just anime influinsed instead of basic fantasy influinsed.

I've never graduated from the "running around with sticks" LARP!

I did.


All the parents in the neighborhood collaborated with one another and bought all the kids laser tag guns.



Christmas was AWESOME that year.

Lucky!!!!!!!!!!!


I'm still with the elf. *lol*

Well...then I guess the only solution is to commit mass genocide on the elven kind.

I'll call the Orcs & Goblins.

Orcs and Goblins? Pfft. They're nothing.

What about demon-cats? With voodoo dolls? *stabbystabby*

Gah! Where'd you come from?! *runs and hides*

bah, laser tag can not possibly compare to the awesome that is stick-combat
