This post-larp workshop is aimed to those participants that have an excessive bleed or suffered a personal issue during the larp.
During the duration of this workshop this participant will benefit alone from the help of another participant or organizer.

An icebreaker workshop for larps that include tension and mystery as primary topics.

It seeks to break shyness, put in contact between participants and set their actions and reactions in the larp to come.

Workshop intended to deepen characters’ past.

A diegetic/extradiegetic pre-larp workshop for the creation or improvement of relations between characters.

It has been put to test during the larp la sirena varada.

This workshop follows a process quite similar to the one in Coffee for 2.

The interaction between participants and characters has many similarities with speeddating.

A diegetic/extradiegetic workshop for character co-creation.

Participants move between 5 different kinds of symbolic spaces to help each other create or enrich their characters.
Conversations take place in and out of character and must follow the rules of each space.

Full immersion is the unreachable desire of many larpers. A reminder of our first larp. A demanding path that rewards with deeply moving experiences. But this approach is not free of danger, one of the most relevant being the possibility to prioritize the characters desires over the larp ones.

The steering technique allows to modify non-diegetically the direction and motivations of a character. This while useful, requires an extra effort for the participant and creates an immersion gap. Therefore a diegetic steering approach would be more desirable.

Organizers often feel that they sacrifice themselves in exchange of… nothing.

After more than eleven years as a larp organizer I do not consider myself better than the newcomers, but there is a quality I have proven to posses and they still not: I am a survivor.

Why have I survived and so many others have not?

After my encounters with different larp cultures I got shocked to find that what defines them, what makes them unique, was not new to me. In fact those elements used to be part of our larps until they became marginal, design mistakes to implement if no other option was available.
