Joining the Game
Welcome to Volaire LARP, a dark fantasy live-action roleplay setting where magic, memory, and mortality intertwine in a world striving to rebuild after a devastating collapse. This guide will walk you through the steps to become a part of this immersive experience.
📝 Step 1: Register
Begin your journey by registering as a new player:
- Visit our website and complete the New Player Form.
- Join our community channels to connect with staff and fellow players.
- Review and sign the Safety and Conduct Agreement prior to attending your first event.
🧍 Step 2: Create a Character
Character creation is a flexible, point-based system:
- Choose a Race: Refer to the Full Race Index.
- Select a Class: Your class defines your role in combat and character concept.
- Spend XP: New characters start with 500 XP to purchase skills.
- Develop your Backstory: Integrate your character into the world. Use the World Lore page for inspiration.

⚔️ Step 3: Prepare Your Physreps
After your first two events, you'll need physical representations (physreps) for your gear:
- Weapons – Foam boffers, checked by staff.
- Armor – Represented visually (must look like armor).
- Spellbooks, Labs, and Tools – Represent your character’s profession and powers.
- Potion Bottles, Crafting Materials, etc. – Tag or label as needed.
For your first two events, you're granted full mechanical access without physreps. After that, physreps become mandatory.
📘 Step 4: Learn the Rules
Familiarize yourself with the game's mechanics:
- Review the Interactive Rulebook.
- Understand how Combat and Spellcasting work.
- Study Tags and Death & Recovery.
New player orientation is offered on-site at each game.
🧪 Step 5: Logistics & Check-In
At your first event:
- Check in at Logistics.
- Submit your XP envelope and any applicable documentation.
- Receive your character sheet and tags.
- Attend new player orientation.
- Introduce yourself to guild representatives or veteran players in-character.
🧭 Step 6: Step Into the World
Once you're checked in and costumed, you're in the world of Volaire. Everything you do matters:
- Roleplay your character fully.
- Explore the town, uncover secrets, and take on tasks.
- Ask questions in-character, and watch how the world reacts.
You’re not just playing in Volaire—you’re helping shape it.
