Introduce yourself

Tessa told me about 2014. but I really got intersted when I saw pictures.

Greetings from the west :slight_smile:

After ghosting the forums for a few days I though I’d better say hi.

Name is Kham. 20 at heart (3x on the outside) :blush:
By day an IT geek on the shore.

A more detailed intro is here so I don’t hijack the thread :wink:

Hey all!

My name’s Jasmine, and I have been to one LARP, and now wanting to get reinvolved with more. Just need to know what’s happening when. I really enjoyed myself last time! And my dog loved the attention.

Errr…I’m 21 years old from West Auckland.

Hope to see ya sometime! And if anyone wants to MSN me and help me out with stuff since I’m such a noob and always have loads of questions that’d be great.

You were at Nightmare Circle that one time, right?

Yes, that was me :slight_smile: Surprised someone remembered that! Hehe

I’m Alex. 24 years old, Lynfield, played the last Ravenholme game. Not really sure I’m actually going to turn into a LARPer, but what I’ve experienced so far has been fun.

ā€œLucianoā€ was my character name, he was an interesting experiment. Having Hannah believing I was Derek for a while before Ravenholme was amusing. :smiley:

I thought for a bit you might be Derek too :blush:

Hello,

my name is Niels Christian, I am from Germany and I’ve been playing LARP since 1994, such as Vampire, Cyberpunk, but mainly Fantasy. I am known to take pictures at LARPs - if you would like to take a peek feel free to visit my online-gallery at http://gallery.drachenfuerst.de/ - it might give you an idea what LARP in Germany is like.

I am not a native English-speaker so I hope you’ll be a little patient with me.

Best regards,
Niels Christian
aka Bonames Bohemund

Goodness me, larpers in Germany go all out! Those photos look awesome!

Thank you :blush:

Although you shouldn’t judge too hard on my ConQuest-pictures. Those are just the leftovers of the picture-book I had the chance to publish with two other photographers with German’s LARP-magazine-Publisher ā€œZauberfederā€

Oh - and by the way - I almost forgot: Not all of the pictures in my Online-Gallery are from German LARPs - some of them are from Austria, too (I am living pretty close to the border).

If I may recommand an album, take a look at last year’s Drachenfest album. I think some of those pictures are not that bad.

You must have been behaving badly to be mistaken for me. :smiling_imp:

Holy crap.
Remind me when I win lotto to go bring some crazy european larpers back to NZ.
Awesome Bonames, fricken awesome.
So when are you coming to NZ?

Highly overdue post… part lurker and part no free time

Alan here, formerly 28… now not… and been RPing for 20+ years. LARPing began in '97. Possibly best known as Count Eric von Braun in Mordavia, I’ve also been a mostly/semi active member of Sword and Shield and have been christened ā€˜Fruitbat’ for reasons best left unsaid. If you know the reasons, you know why unsaid. If you don’t know, you don’t want to know.

I’ve run games, played in games… and am currently not in NZ though this will be changing in 2008.

Greetings all!

Hi, I’m Jeff Ducrot, also known as vlad in the alcove (at Auckland Uni- thanks Daphne). I first heard about larping from friends at selwyn, and have joined due to Juliet’s prodding this year. Been to two games so far, one Requiem (as fritz) and crewed at Nightmare Circle.

Hey Vlad good to see you here…

You did damn well at Nightmare Circle, you’ll fit right into the scene.

Hi,

I’m Martin, and I’m 23 years old. For now I’m living in Berlin, Germany and planning to migrate with my girlfriend to NZ in August '08. Already saw that here are pretty many Germans around :wink:

My Girlfriend Viktoria is 25 years old and has already lived in NZ, Wanganui for one year in 1999/2000.

We’re planning to live in AKL and are happy to hear that there are a lot of groups in AKL. In Germany we mostly play fantasy LARP with a mediaeval background. The other Germans have already told you about German LARP…

Here are some pictures:

Welcome Martin & Viktoria!
Having seasoned larpers from overseas joining us can only be a plus for us. Hamilton has a fantasy larp, Quest, which has struggled on through the years, I’m sure we’d all welcome the experience from fantasy larpers like yourselves.
I look foward to seeing you in a larp sometime in the furture.

Jared

Excellent! You will be here in time for the September game of St. Wolfgang’s Vampire Hunters! (Medieval fantasy)
