October 31, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/eschatonmedia/chronos-the-universal-larp-system/ [Back this Campaign] The Kickstarter for Chronos has, at the time of posting, a few days on the clock. It’s funded; currently about $1,000 in pledges more than target. Are you a LARPer? LARP-curious? Geek Native spoke to Ashley Zdeb, putting some hard questions forward, to make sure the argument for Chronos was clear. […]

The 12 Masks of Halloween: #6 The Cthulhu Alien

October 24, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I like this mask as a good option for Halloween because it’s also, at a glance, suitable for lots of LARPing. It’s a full head latex cover which makes it a costume mask and not just decoration and there’s no blood and gore here, no artificial fright, it’s just a mask of a creature. I […]

A review of Clockwork Watch: Breakaway

September 26, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The first in the Clockwork Watch “series” is The Arrival and it really caught my attention. I put “series” in quotes because Clockwork Watch is more than just a comic book line; it’s a transmedia experience too. At least, I think that’s the term. There are LARPs to accompany it, events and art. The Anachronauts […]

It’s not a bloody cleaver – it’s a woman’s clutch

June 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

How’s this for a fashion statement that stands you out as a geek? You could be a LARPer, a horror fan or just proudly different. That said, it’s perhaps not the clutch to try and take through the airport with you. On sale from Amazon.com. Will it sell out?

The complete Cthulhu mask

June 19, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This impressive Cthulhu mask was created by Ian Langohr. The Canadian has a BFA after attending the Ontario College of Art and Design and now creates masks, often surreal, for his costume design service. He notes; Conflicts are presented within the masks through the manipulation of scale. These are meant to be allegorical, often reflecting […]

Mind’s Eye Theatre: Vampire the Masquerade LARP looks to return

May 26, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bynightstudios/minds-eye-theatre-vampire-the-masquerade/ [Back this Kickstarter] At the start of the year By Night Studios announced a deal with CCP that gave them a license deal to update the LARP system for Mind’s Eye Theatre. This would mean a revision of the Vampire: The Masquerade LARP rules and perhaps other World of Darkness properties. It’s a few […]

The Cthulhu cultist with goggles mask

May 5, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve seen people clubbing in gas masks. I suspect this particular mask might appeal to them as well. It’ll appeal to ravers, goths and those who worship alien gods from beyond time and space. This mask, tentacles and all, is on sale over at Legion Leather’s etsy store. Take note of the warning; Made from […]
