The Myth Wood 2019 Feast and Awards ceremony was, as all are past Feasts, a great success. A big thank you to all the brave souls who attended and brought with them so much wonderful food. Even with the threat of impending blizzard-like conditions and debilitating plague like symptoms in certain households, we were able to celebrate the accomplishments of last year and begin the story for the 2019 Myth Wood L.A.R.P. season.

It was a wonderful day, and I am happy to report everyone made it home safely after the event. The Tournament this year will be held at the Pine City Armory and will be on April 13th. I hope to see you all again then.

With the ineptness of H.W.W.U.S.’s Protection Squads and the retreat tactics of the Cult of H.W.W.U.S. the major military forces of the Blighted have been pushed back and held at Champion’s Hall. The Blighted’s secret weapon, the Lich, appears to only have powers for parade and affirmation of self importance. This weapon has proven ineffectual in the acquisition of land for the Blighted.

The noblemen of West March have found the reprieve from serious physical confrontation a blessing as retaining the lands of West March is difficult from within their walls.

The Merchants of King’s Rest too have enjoyed a holiday from sales and profits as fear of activity has kept patrons off the streets of King’s Rest.

Brannhiem meanwhile has never seen so much activity. The soothing comfort of safe spaces for those plagued by the fear of possible combat, if all others fail, has proven a most lucrative commodity.

Hammers Hold and its people have enjoyed complete safety, and inactivity simply because they are too far away and it would require far to much effort to walk there.

Of course, we the Devils of Old Tickle town find this all quite amusing. For if the Blighted should prove to have a plan or the people of the Wood a backbone. Well then, the other side will simply give us a soul so we can take care of their problems for them. For this reason our usefulness far outweighs our actions of blatant murder.

This is the current atmosphere of the Myth Wood from the prospective of the Devils. But what do the Blighted have planned next? Will the people of the Wood be strong enough to continue to hold them back? Who will receive the next blessing of the Six? We will find out on August 11th.

Set up and breakfast starts at 8:00. Checkin starts at 10:00 a.m. We will have lunch at the end of the first scenario. Burgers and hot dogs will be provided. Feel free to bring a food dish to share.

Things to make sure you bring; water, bug spray, sunscreen, and a belt. Also we strongly encourage everyone to get a full nights sleep before the event as the heat and activity can be very exhausting.

Third LARP of 2018

The Main Story Arc of the Myth Wood Season 6

Almost there!   Just a couple more days, and I finally have the stats from May ready to go.   The ties in Rank mean that everyone there all got the exact same number of kills. Everyone on the other list leveled up and their new level is listed. Congrats!

We walked through the woods and things are drying up but it’s still pretty muddy and some roads are completely blocked with water.   Bring shoes that you don’t mind getting muddy.  Bug spray, sunscreen, water, and food to share for lunch.   Once again remember a Belt!

See you Saturday.
