Stay tuned for hints as to what is coming up next year.  The planning has already begun….

Prelude to Tamberleon

The cry of a child, a warriors cry
To answer the call, a call to die
A choice for the blight
A choice for the light
Stone cold with fright
A part of the night
A man of anger, by which he was driven
Would fight for an Order, his name being Riven
A warrior boasting of many talents
Would one day rise to fight for Balance
A man who once was kind and free
Would spread Chaos with unbridled glee
Will these woods ever heal
From the grim sound of steel on steel
A tale of revenge, Fury and glory,
Sit down by the fire, for this is their story.

My Lady Tirza

My Lady Tirza,
I pray this finds you well, and that negotiations with the Dark Cloud and Wei Tang Marauder clans have gone as planned. I advise caution when dealing with the Brethren of the Southern Isles. Their leader, Captain Gweir is a wily man, and will seize upon any opportunity he is given. Once a deal is struck, however, he is a loyal ally. My brother has ever been so, since we were small children. When his loyalty has been earned, he will be a strong voice for you in the Council of the Seas, which has governed pirates for longer than anyone can remember. Uniting them with the brigand clans and the Thieves Guild is no small task, but if anyone can do it, it is you.  Continue reading My Lady Tirza

October 2016 Random Battle Factoids

So I have started pulling together the numbers for the October Event.   No Matt, I am not done with it yet.  But while crunching numbers here are a few things that I noticed.  Since Ed is busy editing a story written by one of our fellow denizens I took a bit of time to write them up.

Random factoids noticed after calculating the experience just for kills: Continue reading October 2016 Random Battle Factoids

October 2016 Recap

Well everyone, once again a wonderful season of L.A.R.P.ing comes to an end in the Myth Wood. Thank you to everyone who made our final l.a.r.p. of 2016 so much fun.

To recap the day: The skulls of Order, Chaos, and Balance took control of the bodies of their holders. They also took complete control of everyone who held a piece to a game of keeps. They then split them up and had the Blue team go to High Guard, the Red team go to Hammer’s Hold, and the Green Team went to Gray Arrow Keep. From there, the three teams began hunting and killing the other teams in hopes of capturing the other teams Keep Piece. The Skulls themselves took up residency in the places of power in the Myth Wood. Ordo of the Blue Skull went to the Arena of Valor. Abyssal of the Red Skull went to the Graveyard of the Fallen. Myth of the Green Skull made herself at home at the Lady’s Tree. Continue reading October 2016 Recap

Rokai’s Welcome to the Wood

Welcome to the Wood

As I awoke from what seemed to be an eternal slumber, I had no idea where I was or what happened to me before I woke. All I had was my sword, armor and a small amount of money in my pouch. Was I dead? Is this the afterlife? A dream maybe? So many questions, but  no one to answer them. I figured I should probably find out where I am first and answer my questions later.

I got up and walked around a bit and eventually found myself at a gate. A gate that seemed to lead into some woods that I have never seen before. Almost immediately after I heard a voice, a woman’s voice, “Go…” I looked around to find out where it was coming from, but to no avail. I heard it again, “Go… Go through the gates and you’ll find what you’re searching for.” I looked back at the gates and without hesitation, walked straight through.
