Humorous LARP Stories

Because the winter has set in and days can become cold and bleak, the Queen has ordered the Court Jester to go around and collect humorous LARPing stories so that we all may enjoy a good laugh.  Here are some of the tales:

At one LARP, there is a prayer that forces the target to answer the next “yes” or “no” question truthfully.  In order to “cast” the prayer, the cleric must place their hand on the target and call “Truth Light.”  One particular, yet clever, cleric was only able to use this prayer twice per day.  A suspected criminal was brought before the cleric, but the cleric had already used the prayer twice.  Thinking quickly he asked the criminal if he was guilty then shouted, “Tell me the truth!”  Shocked by the cleric’s vigor and assuming the prayer had been cast, the criminal admitted his guilt, even though he was not bound by the rules of the game to do so.  Quite an interrogator that cleric was.

At another LARP, the players were confronted with battling a very ferocious and powerful villain.  This villain was known as a Bone Lord, who was capable of causing a lot of damage while requiring special materials to defeat.  Before the players could gather the correct components, the Bone Lord assaulted the town, forcing the players to all take refuge in the Abbey.  The scribes say that the Bone Lord taunted the town threatening to destroy the citizens, their children, and their children’s children.  One daring and defiant rogue shouted back, “How will our children have children if you’ve already destroyed them?”  That rogue was either very brave—or very stupid.  Whichever it was, we hope that he was wearing Medieval armor to help protect him from the battle that surely followed his untimely remarks.

Come back and visit the Jester often as he will provide more of these tales.  Do you have your own amusing stories?  Let the Jester know by leaving a comment.

    She was a mage. And she was me. And the exact quote was “Anybody here have kids? No? So… we’re going to be here a while, right?” Both of those stories are from the glory days of Wyvern Rising.
