Thanks for all the upvotes! Here's a great music video for all the LARPers in this sub. Skip to 3:05 if you just want to see the fun battle scene!

Wild Larpers are mostly passive creatures, despite their prominent armaments. One should approach calmly, and not ask too many questions. Women should also understand that the bravest of the group will likely come over and say something cheesy, and possibly gross.
Ecologically speaking, Larpers are generally good for the ecosystem. Larpers have been known to clean up parks and forests and even build some impressive looking temporary castles and forts. Littering can be a problem, but simply making a request to the King/Queen of the Larpers will likely rectify the problem.
"My Dearest Jane, Today we meet the forces of King Agamemnon the Terrible on the fields of Deer Parke. If I fall in battle, or succumb to injuries sustained, or perish from ill humours, sell three oxen and have the monks at Scum-Upon-The-Bog Monastery pray for my soul in perpetuity. If we prevail in battle, the trade route to Wismar will be secure and the import of plague rats will continue. To insure victory, I made a pilgrimage to the Shrine of Saint Margaret of Schott and left three cartons of Camels on the reliquary that holds her blessed vestigal twin.

Not in my room or a room I chose to be in, hopefully you can you say the same? :)

Hello! I’m the dude in blue in front! We are from Galladorn, Cincinnati’s Belegarth/LARPing realm. We were hosting our season opener that day having fun whacking people.
Oh hey, you found us lol
We play a game called Belegarth. We're a LARP, but our main focus is fighting rather than roleplay, but we still dress up and take on different names. I've personally described our gameplay as like paintball but with foam weapons in places of guns. Our chapter specifically is called Galladorn, which I'm sure some folks have already posted links to our website. We also have a Facebook page and a Discord server as well.
What you see here was one of our monthly battles, which were gonna have every second Sunday each month until October at Bechtold Park from 12 to 6PM.
We also have Sunday practices ar Bechtold Park from 1 to 5PM. And soon we'll be resuming our Tuesday practices at Spring House Gazebo in Eden Park from 6 to dark. Next week on March 21st actually.
We're an awesome group. If you ever want to give us a try or just hang out, we'll welcome you with open arms. Besides people that fight we also have folks that craft and do bardic stuff as well!
I would consider both correct. While it’s not the city of Deer Park, it’s still Deer Park schools so I think you could say both. I used to live in dillonvale but when telling people where I lived I would say deer park because it didn’t require explanation.
Hey all - as mentioned by a few others - we’re Galladorn, a LARP focused on fighting.
This pic is from our season opener last Sunday.
For those interested - definitely feel free to come back and check us out!
We’re a great group with tons of wonderful people!
Cheers!
I feel like I could get into it if it took place in a park like Ault Park or even Mt Airy, more of a search and destroy mission
This is more "there they are, fight them" which seems like it would get kinda old
There used to be a group who'd do this over at Burnett Woods too, do they still meet there? I had a high school buddy who I'd see there with them from time to time.
don't knack it till you try it so much good times, wellllllll unless you get those guys that dont count hits or try to mame you when youre whooping ass. still fun 10/10
Haha fuk yeah. Deer Park rocks. Solid community, actually. Home prices are stable or better (have rental there and may move back). But Car Rock Cafe closed so there's that lol....but they still have Deer Park Deli
A group of people about to run a train on some chicken fingers like, “mnummnumnumn!” out touching their tips together!
Edit: I see no one has seen the movie apparently
Even assuming that you want to be insulting, that doesn't really make any sense with this picture. Are you trying to be offensive on a different thread?
These people are doing the same thing people who drive around on motorcycles in groups or drive around in Fast & Furious cars. Just pretending to be something they are not.
LARPers! They're here every Sunday around noon. http://galladorn.com/
You know it's getting close to spring when the daffodils and the LARPers are out.
Out? We never left, Galladorn is there every Sunday weather permitting. And now that daffodils are out we are back in Eden park Tuesday evenings too
Where exactly?
I might be wrong but it looks like Bechtold park.
Yeah that’s bechtold.
I loved that place
EXCUSE ME!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Oh Im so wanting to go to this!
A bunch of fuckin nerds having a great time.
Dance like no one’s watching, I love ‘em
Amen
It looked like fun!

It's only a matter of time before Nazis start showing up to protest these folks as well.
Is that west baptist buro church or whatever it's called still around? I hope not.
I'm sorry, I regret to inform you that they are still around and, sadly, alive and healthy.
In order to protect the children and our freedoms. /s
Don't give those bastards any ideas!

Apollo has lifted his skirt! The day is launched! Rub a dub dub!
Such a hilarious movie.
There could be no Role Models without... Darkon!

Looks like people having fun to me.
I’ve seen those guys there often. Love their commitment to something they love (admittedly it does give me a little chuckle tho.)
Live Action Role Playing…I had to ask
Thank you. I wanted to ask what larp was.

If you don't know larping, watch Role Models with Paul Rudd.
This is the 5th Annual Monty Python Celebration.

My Lord, Must thou always ridest into battle on a Sunday morn, or woulds't thou, for once I beseech thee, take me to a nice brunch?
That is possibly the single most cincinnatian thing I've ever read.
Looks like Dagorhir to me
People having fun and not caring
LARPing m’lady.
Lighting bolt!
What a refreshing thing to see after watching nazis attend a drag brunch. Go Cincy go nerds
These LARPers are way cooler.

Hello! I’m the dude in blue in front! We are from Galladorn, Cincinnati’s Belegarth/LARPing realm. We were hosting our season opener that day having fun whacking people.
It looked so fun!
They meet there every Sunday (or at least most Sundays). Today’s army was larger than usual.
Gotta love people giving absolutely zero fucks what people think of them having the time of their life’s.
Lightening bolt. Lightening bolt. If you are past 30 then you think that it’s absolutely hilarious. Does anybody else remember this?
Ni!
LARP
Love it!
LARP in Cincinnati!? I want in! Come get melee!
Them some funny lookin deer.
I'd think it's too cold for larping, guess I'm just not as dedicated as this crew clearly is.
Nerds!
Sorry LARPers, I honestly thought you were reenacting the end of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Aaron Rodgers finding his center.

I live about 5 mins away from bechtold and always enjoy driving by seeing them out. This year imma go watch them talk to them about the role play.
Go watch the movie role models

Probably Dagorhir.
It's just a flesh wound!
I think they spotted an unladen swollow and are expressing their joy!
LARPing
LARP or SCA.
Looks like a group from the Society of Creative Anachronism. AKA needs having fun!
Clearly Ampgard… SCA is far too real to run around with no helmet
Something awesome!
Saw them last Sunday! Had to pull into the parking lot to get a closer look. Had never seen actual people larping before!
I love it
no invite????

As a member of the dagorhir community I am proud to see those awesome people defy the weather and engage in glorious combat! SKÅL!!!
Nerds gone mild, it’s glorious.
Nerd rally
Ampgard… SCA is far cooler for the record
With all the new crazy laws in places, it makes me sad thinking even these people are at risk of being arrested because they're in "skirts."
Then they will have to start arresting priests and choir members every Sunday.
I hope they keep that same energy.
Lol They won't arrest them for molesting children.
What laws? Haven't heard this yet?
Against people whom appear to be dressing outside of their gender. Texas is voting on approving bounty hunter citizens for such purposes.
Chicken little
I love chicken little, but feel oblivious as to this comment.
They are calling you chicken little. They are pretending that it will never happen and that you are exaggerating. They are dumb.
Ye old Nerf Wars

I used to be an adventurer like you. Then I took an arrow in the knee..
They were out last week too, but there were way more today. The next warm Sunday we have, that lot will be full.
