But then we heard the sound of dripping water, and "Sagalinn Tangen" saying the words "the first hours of the larp were really difficult". I felt this mockumentary in my bones. #nordiclarp #larp

I keep blogging about larp to keep my thoughts from being locked into meta/Facebook where a lot of Nordic Larpers still hang out. Today I want to give a shout out to the larp Helicon which features Dyadic Casting/dyadic play. And sign up is open! This is a chance for adults who want to get into larping serious and epic stories in physical comfort.
The blog post today is about the queer larp Perfect Match from 2023 #nordiclarp #areyoutheone
If you are looking for a Vampire larp im Gothenburg Go:Night is open to new players. vampire larp is easy to start with when it comes to travel and gear, but can be both rules heavy and socially complex. I still did it for 12 years! https://gonight.se #vampire #vampirelarp #larp #nordiclarp
The program item I attended att Knutepunkt 2025 on sunday was against the idea of the good larper. Encouraging people to let go of that pressure. i reflect on my fear of abandonment. #nordiclarp

Knutepunkt 2025 was this years version of the ambulating conference for Nordic Larp. It was organized outside of Oslo this weekend and had plenty of talks and workshops about and for the community of people creating and participating in this style of larp. I have been writing on the blog everyday and this is what I went to on saturday.

Erstes #PnPDE in 2025 war Limbo, ein #LARP in dem es um Menschen geht, die nach dem Tod zwischen Leben und dem after Life hängen da sich ihre Seele noch nicht entschieden hat.
Ich hab das ganze als ein Zug dargestellt, inklusive mir als Schaffner. Die Charaktere mussten sich entscheiden, wie es nach dem Tod weiter geht. Die schwarze weiß Bilder dienen als Erinnerung zusammen mit dem Origami Kraniche, welche mit in den Limbo gekommen sind.
Unkompliziertes und emotionales #NordicLarp.
Check out this cool video. Ben (https://www.youtube.com/@QuestingBeast) walks through this article (https://bit.ly/3W3uX9O) on the 6 play cultures: Classic, Trad, Nordic Larp, Story Games, OSR, & OC/Neo-trad.
Why do people record their live-action online game sessions? How can we benefit from such recordings, aka Actual Plays? What is their history and how would we define some of the basic concepts?
Adrian Hermann and I wrote an article about these topics for the annual conference book accompanying the Knutepunkt / Solmukohta conference. It can now be found pre-published on Nordic Larp.

#Odyssey2051
I am looking for a way to tell a tale of transformation, composed as a road trip story with strong vibes of (techno)magic realism. The protagonist is a small intentional community, displaced physically and pushed out of their comfort zone.
They have to travel, in a rapidly changing world, to find new place to settle, raise next generation, and pass the narrative forward.
Their transition is from a sedentary and reactive, though nomadic and reactive, nomadic and proactive to sedentary and proactive. In a sense it is also a rite of passage story.
While traveling, they encounter various communities (strangers coming to town trope) and individuals. These interactions are the essence of the story: how they influence both the protagonist community and its members, shaping future interactions as well.
The goal is to make the story immersive and interactive, so participants can essentially try new social dynamics, personal aptitudes and attitudes, in a safe and nurturing environment (not just milk and honey, though).
Obviously, we (the authoring collective #TePeWu) need to choose a form which will be "rules-easy and narrative-heavy" and it will be most probably something in the area of #NordicLarp, #NarrativeRPG or some kind of emergent collective #Drama. We are absolutely open for other suggestion, too.
If you read it and feel like joining us (there will be various levels of involvement - personal, as we do not need the money at the moment), you are most welcome to.
If you have corresponding experience, knowledge or skills you are keen and able to share with us, you are most welcome to.
If you have anything else to contribute to the topic - go ahead.
The story's provisional title is Odyssey: 2051. #Solarpunk in the age of #collapse. It is a not-for-profit venture and all outcome will be publicly available under #CreativeCommons CC-BY-SA licence.

I love how the Black Box larp sub-scene of the #nordiclarp world has become a home to artists with distinct, recognizable and creatively mature styles. Nina Runa Essendrop's penchant for beautiful, tactile, non-verbal play (a.k.a. "Ninaform") is perhaps the most famous example.
In this lecture, Evan Torner gives another example - the duo of Jeppe and Maria Bergmann Hamming:

(I played "Encore!" at the 2022 Grenselandet festival. Much operatic. Very recommend.)
