The big LARP season is in its high. There was a Steampunk LARP, Jaska, Terra Nova, and next week there's Utvrda Svjetlosti. Between these, there was some little time for short LARPs - Krvomeđe two weeks ago, and Maksimir 58 (yes, 58!) today, in Maksimir park in Zagreb. But they're still an important part of our LARP scene, as they are small and free, filling the space in-between. And if you're nearby, you'll always be welcome.
The following 15 rules (warning: strong language) were written some years ago in Great Britain, and have been pretty much generally accepted on the British larp scene. Especially popular is rule 7 - widely known by its number and commonly considered to be the most imortant rule of all (and I agree). Even the biggest British larp forum has taken Rule7 as its name. The rules have been originally created by the Drunken Monkeys and edited by Rick Wynne who added some extra stuff in the explanations to make them more understandable to international audience (it still contains some British larp lingo though), more work-safe and to throw in his two cents. (copy of the original wording is available here ) 1. Don’t play a mighty warrior; play a warrior and be mighty. Don’t label your character. As soon as you say that you are the best swordsman in the land someone will come along and kick your ass. Just get into the mindset of the person and role-play it out. 2. No one cares about you...
