August 11 Event Information


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.

Alright everyone, first as always, thank you guys for being a part of all this. Without the people of the Myth Wood, there would be no Myth Wood. With that in mind, we have updated the Map, and the Political Map. Also thanks to all the wonderful photographers in the Wood we have a bunch of new Pictures of the June event. Finally, the Gnomes of the Myth Wood have taken it upon themselves to create a Myth Wood Newspaper. “Myth Times” Enjoy!.

May Stats and Levels

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.

May Photos and Map Update

2018 – May Event

 

We are slowly pulling together things from last Saturday’s event.  

First, a big thanks to Kieran (Tanner) and Tilbury(Nick) for taking pictures for us.  

Second, our political map had some major revisions after the end of the day.  Better start making some plans if you want your lands back!

 

 

Start of Year Update & Wear a Belt

The First Myth Wood L.A.R.P event of 2018 is quickly approaching.   The Roads and Bridges crew have been busy with yearly maintenance and updating our Myth Wood Map.  A couple new projects have been started and the cobwebs that appeared over the winter months have been cleaned up.  Brother Arcadia spent some time making some changes to our Handbook  and book of Magic.

Last year we introduce the Armor Point/Magic counters, this year we have new belt pouches!   What this means is that EVERYBODY NEEDS A BELT or Bandolier!  Just so everyone understands, we are updating the garb requirements to state that everyone needs a belt or some way of wearing both the Armor Point counter and the Belt Pouch.   We will no longer use carabiners to carry the pouches.  We cannot provide everyone with a belt so you must bring your own.

Also, here are a few stories to read to get a glimpse into what the skulls have been up to:

 Ordo and Abyssal and Lady Myth

Reminder, our next event is May 19th.  Here is a link to our Facebook event.

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

Winter 2016 Feast and Tournament

Many of us gathered together last Saturday for our annual tournament.   There were 15 people participating in the tournaments and about the same number of kids and spectators who showed up.

There were two tournaments throughout the day.  The first, and largest, was the one to determine who would wield FarinGar this year.   The tournament was a new style where each participant fought everyone else using the exact same weapons and each starting the fight with 3 lives.   We discovered that while we really like this style of tournament it makes for a long day, almost 5 hours of constant one-on-one battles.   In the end 89 battles were fought and after determining that the weapons weren’t going to hold up through every single fight we ended up skipping 16 battles that were unnecessary for determining the final victors.  Each participant fought in at least 8 battles.  This tournament was great because it offered a chance for people to fight in battles that they may have never fought with weapons they had never used before. Continue reading Winter 2016 Feast and Tournament
