I've been playing in this great Fantasy LARP since it's inception. I love it to bits and I'm close friends with many of the GM's. I really care about the game and seeing it grow.
Now I'm looking at retiring my current character in favour of something more 'Roleplay Heavy' since what I play right now is essentially myself in a Canadian accent. I'm excited to play a new character in the world I love so much.
However, after mentioning this to the Head-GM I was surprised to instead be offered a position on the GM team.
Wow. Ok.
I've ran LARPs before. Normally small scale with a very limited team and this is the first time I've been offered a position of something of this size. The game is also at an important tipping point. Our second generation of Player Factions are starting to come forward and the 100 Player game goal looms on the horizon like a hoard of treasure.
At the same time I love playing a character. Stepping into this amazing setting and losing myself in the troubles and adventure that LARP offers. Being stuck in the trenches alongside all the other players in fear and confusion at the plot while trying to kill each other is something I love. As well as tired nights around the campfire talking in hushed tones about days passed and days still to come.
I know I wont lose all of this, but I know it is vastly different.
SO LARP TAG! What should I do?
