"We put the 'fun' in Dysfunctional Adventuring Party!"

What is this "larp" thing?

Larp (live-action roleplay) is a collaborative storytelling experience where the players embody characters and interact with the game world and with one another in a spontaneous, unscripted way. There is no audience - everyone is a participant.


Setting

Have you ever wanted to be the Chosen One?
A hero or a villain in a larger-than-life story?
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to change the world?
Adventurers' Academy is set in a fictional world whose inhabitants are torn between two opposing forces: Creation and Destruction. In exchange for loyalty towards one of these Alignments, the all-powerful Divinities bestow special powers upon those who serve them. That is how allies of Creation and Destruction are born, blessed with a larger-than-life destiny and burdened with their family’s and nation’s expectations towards the future. As they set off on the journey to greatness, all they have is the favour of their Divinity to trust in and the words of their prophecy to guide them.

Our game starts when the Chosen Ones from both Alignments meet at the gates to the famous Adventurers’ Academy, the place that will forge them into the Heroes and Villains they are meant to become. Once they step through the doorway, their lives will change forever.

There will be mystery, danger, joy and adventure; allies and enemies, friends for life and rivals with a deadly grudge; destinies will clash, faith will be tested, and through all this a new future will be forged.

This is, after all, how legends are born.

Casting and Characters

New Players

New players are cast as first-year students at the Academy. They come from all possible walks of life: kings and beggars, thieves and merchants, young, old, and everything in between.

Having only recently found out that they have a destiny to fulfill, they are summoned to the legendary learning place for future heroes and villains, and they all start at level 1.

After the sign-up, each new player will receive a casting form, in which they will be able to tell us which Profession, Kin and Land they'd like to represent.
After the casting, the Writing Team will create a full character sheet for each player, tailored to the player's wishes.

NEW PLAYERS WILL:

* have secret information from their Land and/or faction;
* have their own goals and agendas;
* discover their place among the Chosen Ones - will they be claimed by Creation or Destruction?
* meet their Level 2 peers and forge alliances - or make enemies;
* form their own adventuring parties - or be invited into the existing ones;
* find a mentor who will help them on their road to greatness;
* dig into secrets which their Level 2 peers (and perhaps some of the Instructors) would rather keep buried;
* forge alliances to strengthen their Land - or cause the downfall of another;
* meet a whole range of interesting NPCs and forge alliances or animosities;
* join an adventure of their lifetime!

Returning Players

Returning players will find that their students advance to level 2, which comes with cool new powers, but also additional responsibilities - including mentoring the newcomers.

The Writing Team will look at the questionnaires
