"Accidentally" is usually how one joins an undead army.

Hello! Lisanne, the undead priestess, here. I am so blown away by all the kind words and love for my costume, I cannot thank you all enough.. ❤

"Occationally we would get adopted by someone important, to walk behind them and make them look cool"

I can't imagine a bigger compliment to your costumes!

"You can live in various camps of people. Pirates, alchemists, clowns, the French." That fits more than i thought it would.

15 years ago I played a mute piper at the Mythodea events and one night a friend and I were invited to a banquet of sailors. During the course of the evening everyone hat to give a speech and when it was my turn, my friend started to explain that I couldn‘t hold a speech, being unable to speak. I stopped him mid-sentence, got my flute out and played a sea shanty to roaring applause. I‘ve been following your channel since your New York days and I am so glad you discovered larping. The stories you‘ll experience in this world of kind, open-minder, highly creative and welcoming people will be among the best times of your live. And yes, the sadness on the last day of the events hits us all…

"How I accidentally joined an undead army" sounds like a isekai japanese novel/manga lol

I'm sorry, the giant grin on Bernadette after getting "disgusting" blood on her face warms my heart.

"Death is certain but I decide when" GOES SO HARD

Bernadette explaining all the things she does have, despite her lack of experience in the first minute and I'm over here like "Oh yeah, she's gonna have a new obsession."

@Nicolai4828 5 days ago

Death is certain but i decide when goes haaaaard. Like that scentence gave me chills

I love how the two camping areas would rather create a line to pass food and wine than walk across the space. There's just something so ridiculous and wholesome about it.

What have you become? What you were always meant to be, Bernadette: a giant nerd

2:42 “Or French people.” I love how French people are their own category because yes.

I think this is the most Bernadette thing that Bernadette has ever Bernadetted 😂

@blackbird_entropy 5 days ago

I think the algorithm is trying to tell me something... namely that I should attend a LARP

@totallynotme9922 5 days ago

“ But I do have some sewing skill, a fair amount of reenactment experience, a proclivity for the creepy, and an unhealthy does of audacity.” Is my moto from now on, mood tbh 🤙😎

@karinaburana562 5 days ago

If I understood it correctly, then I really like the setup/lore of the LARP factions, where the "evil" coded side is technically not the aggressors but the people defending their lands from an influx of invading/colonizing players.
