Heroes and Heroines Live Action Roleplay (Larp/LRP)

Welcome to Heroes and Heroines Live Action Roleplaying (LARP)

Heroes and Heroines is a friendly not-for-profit live action role play Community Interest Company based in the west midlands. We run 11 - 12 events a year and always welcome new comers to the group or the LARP/LRP hobby as a whole.

Live Action Role Play involves taking on the role of a character in the game and acting as that character. Over time you will build up your character's skills and personality and will forge new social contacts from event to event. As a character you will find yourself in all different manner of situations, sometimes alone or as a group, which will range from negotiations, problem and puzzle solving to combat situations.

All the events are based in our own bespoke high fantasy LARP world which has been in development for over 30 years known as Eden where the players play characters from a country called The Protectorate of the Rose. Your characters will form part of the country's main problem solving team known as Auxiliaries. The world is constantly developing due to in game events and the actions of the players. There is always a vast range of opportunities to immerse yourself in the extensive game plot as well as your own unique character's plot, be it something from the past or something done during the game.

Every character has their own view of the world of Eden with their own agendas and objectives. These can be in line with or opposing those of other players and nations, thus giving ample opportunity for interaction between characters. There is also a wealth of other organisations and people within the world for characters to interact with, alliances to be made or enemies to face as well as those who cannot be reasoned or negotiated with.
