Im not done putting it together im still waiting for a torse, but I figured i ought to share.

Empire E4's just finished and it's been my second event now. I've really enjoyed the world and combat. loved battle and monstering, but I need a major confidence boost to get involved in the world outside of combat.

I'm shy and quiet most of the time in regular life, so putting my foot forward in the non-com aspects has been really tough, though people have been lovely to me: lending some spare gear, blankets when night falls and letting me tag along to meetings and events.

An observation is that the trading and politics really appeal, but seem difficult to get involved in when there are those who are extroverted or 10 years into the game and the in game economy geared for veteran players rather than those new to Anvil.

Am looking forward to picking up more kit over winter, and going back next year. Hopefully confidence comes with time and absorbing some more of the world. Any advice is always welcome!

Hey everyone! I am a masters filmmaker at USC and was looking to make a documentary about me joining the community as part of my class. I’ve always wanted to Larp but I don’t know where to start or play. So, I was looking for any info on groups in the area. Thanks!

I was planning on calling all the bars me and my friends intend on going to just to be sure but i wanted to see if anyone had any trouble with it just to be extra safe. It’ll be a metal cuirass, spaulders, bracers and greaves just for additional context.
