2011 Dragon*Con Progress Report

Page 53

Live Action Role-Playing Live Action Role-Playing Games (LARPs) at Dragon*Con 2011 continues to build on its consecutive highly-successful years that set new standards for Live Action Role-Playing at Dragon*Con. We continue responding to the input of our attendees by focusing on genres for which there is a strong demand and on production companies that produce the highest quality experience for our attendees. LARP gaming returns yet again to the Hilton for Dragon*Con 2011. Specific space assignments have not yet been finalized for the LARP division as we are still accepting bids for LARPs to run at the convention. Dragon*Con 2011 also marks the return of Nightfall Productions to the Dragon*Con LARP family of games running a cross-over genre game pursuant to the Mind’s Eye Theatre rules system. Also returning will be the highly requested and well-received boffer-LARP demonstration lead by Dagorhir Battle Games.

We are also proud to once again offer the highlysuccessful and requested the LARP character building workshops. Whether you are an experienced LARPer or just looking to get your LARP feet wet, our character building workshops will be available throughout the weekend to help you make your character ideas come to life and be played in one of the many different LARP games that Dragon*Con 2011 offers. Space permitting, we expect to have several “display-only” tables for those LARP games that run continually throughout the year. So, if you want to “live the part” or if you just want to find some information on what exactly Live-Action gaming is, join the LARP division for a fun-filled weekend of gaming. For general information on any LARP game running at D*C11, please contact the LARP Director, Wayne Melnick at larps@dragoncon. org.
