Land

This is how the LarpCraft system defines lands in the system. LarpCraft lands are broken down into 3 different categories: Continents, Colonies and Realms. Below is a definition of each: Continents - Land mass roughly related to the actual geographical continent a realm or colony would be on. Each continent will have a story that the realms and colonies must include in their biography. Only LarpCraft Overlords have the power to add continents but they will consult with realm Elders before doing so (as it is likely that the realms will have to help come up with the stories). Once we have enough realms and colonies in each continent, it will be possible to set up multi-colonial games. These would be the largest games in LarpCraft with thousands of players. Colonies - These are protected areas in a network of realms. It takes at least 3 realms to apply for a Colony. Colonies are designed to bridge local realms where it would be possible to attend each others games monthly or semi-monthly. Colonies must connect to their continent stories as well as have some story history relationship with each realm in a colony. Realms in a colony work together to build a strong lore, network of games, and friendships. Realms in a colony are not allowed to host games on the same day (to encourage higher turnouts from all realms in the area). LarpCraft prefers no more than 5 realms occupy a colony. This way multi-colony games can be set up a few times a year (if possible). Colonies will get their own chat and scroll areas. The Elder leaders of realms will have a private area in the scrolls to coordinate games, quests, stories and more with each other. Realms - The most common form of area in LarpCraft. Realms are the actual plot of land players play on. In a realm you may have kingdoms, villages, factions, guilds and pretty much everything else. Realms are not allowed to be called a Kingdom since they are bigger than that (and kingdoms rise and fall). Realms need a story that connects with their colonies and or continents. If a new realm is joining a colony, it will need to be part of the colony story as well. Realms can be started by filling out a new realm request form on LarpCraft. Each realm needs at least 1 Elder on site per 15 players in a game. Land areas are not allowed to have profiles, they have scrolls and chat areas. It is advised that you list your location with your realm, colony and continent in it. So say for example if Blaz Delmonte is on the continent of Fuloria within the colony of Yukam and the realm of Knightingdale the location on Blaz’s profile would read Blaz Delmonte of knightingdale - Colony of Yukam in Fuloria (something along those lines).

Risk Management

Questions pertaining to the realm and safety of the players. If a realm has too many risk management issues, it will be denied as a playable area.

Describe your parking area. How many players would your realm hold at one time?

Emergency CareHow far away is the nearest hospital? How many minutes would it take for an ambulance to reach your realm? Don't know? Call your local non-emergency responder line and they can tell you.

Does the realm have any dangers for players?Things like barbed wire, cliffs, deep water, excessive undergrowth. Things people hurt themselves on.

Danger AvoidanceHow would you plan on keeping players away from danger areas? Would you be willing to put up signage?

Waivers *Each Chief Elder is responsible for players filling out a waiver at each location. A players character profile is then given 50 additional XP at their first game via the game signup sheet you send back to LarpCraft. Each realm is required to keep the waiver for at least 5 years after the player stops playing at their realm.

I understand and will keep waivers safe and on file.

Does this location require a certificate of insurance?All approved games are covered under the LarpCraft Insurance Program but some landowners like to see proof of coverage. If this is so, please tell us how the certificate holder information must read in the box below. Please allow up to 30 days for a certificate of insurance to be sent to the landowner via the information listed below.

Insurance Statements *In the event of an incident I agree not to tell participants "we will pay for that" or "you are covered" Etc. An accident form must be filled out before a claim can be looked at. Insurance is in place for your protection but you should not be putting words into the insurance companies mouth. Claims will be handled as quickly as possible and you will be required to give copies of your waiver for all parties involved.

I agree

On Site Needs *You must have the following items on hand and accessible to all players in your realm during all games. Check each item if you can carry these items, LarpCraft Overlords will perform random inspections of your realm on game day and will shut you down if you do not have the proper equipment in place.

Do you allow fires in your realm? *Describe your rules on fire use. Do you not allow fires on dry or windy days? Are fires in designated areas only? Do you have signage explaining your fire rules?

Elder to Player Ratio *I understand that we will have at least 1 Elder per 15 players in the realm at all times.

I Agree

Realm EquipmentI agree to not allow players to use Elder equipment while on site. I agree that Elders will use all safety equipment recommended by the manufacturer of said vehicles (helmets etc.).

I agree and will enforce safety measures for equipment.

Realm Structures *I agree Elders will inspect all structures and props before and during each game to make sure they are safe for players to use.

I agree

Alcohol Management *Does your realm allow legal adults to consume alcohol? If so, please describe how you plan to manage this so underage drinking does not happen. Also, what is your procedure for handling a participant who may be intoxicated and unruly.

Communication *How do you communicate quickly between Elders? This is really important in a large realm when an Elder needs assistance.

Safety Overview *You will provide a weapons, armor, clothing and safety check before a game begins. Anyone or anything not fit for game use will not be allowed in game according to the LarpCraft Rule Book.

I agree and will check all items used in game.
