Had an amazing time trying out Larp with @underworld_larp_toronto
This is most likely the closest to a battlefield or a MMORPG in real life as we can get. Sure people say larp is toooo dorky, but hey,once you try it, you’ll be hooked.
Played as a Human Mercenary named Alexandria Dean. Got hired as a guard for noble gem merchant.
All in all, finding an excuse to have as much as sparring sessions as possible before the boss shows up.
Damn. The snow storm adds such a nice tough to these shots

Half swording is still one of my absolute favorite technique. Although I’m not good at it, it is very rewarding when I get to pull it off…after getting stabbed 10 times…HAHAHA

Stealth is my specialty.
But seriously, I’m more of a bait with my flashy outfit.
Put some of my kit together so Yanapi can get some sweet sweet shot. And oh God, this was so much fun.

WHAT A FASHION MONSTER
LOVE IT.
Installed the straps and buckles, just testing out the new plume set up.
I might buy another set of these to make it super full, but for now, it works as a display or larp helmet.
I can’t believe how big of a weight difference a 18guage and a 16guage helmet can be!
Can’t wait for the rest of my softkit outdit to come together.

Another mini buckle.
Anyone want to guess where this set will be used on??
Making these mini belts is so much fun!

Very me.
Bonk my friend.. instantly check to see if they are okay.
I have a tendency to hit lightly because I’m afraid of hurting my training partner, but at times, I’m sure this habit of mine will bite me in the butt in real life.
Video by one of our clubmate. Think the font was when he was trying to post for something else?
It’s good to spar in armor again! Died already about 20 bouts.

16th century burgonet fix up! Got this Burgonet a long time ago and it was an reenactment use only, the bevor was sitting really poorly.
Took pretty much the entire helmet apart and added 2 brass hinges to it.
Worked a lot better now! Might wear it for show later after I further refine it.
I must say, the vision is impressive on a burgonet even with the visor up.
The eye slows are so close to my ocular, that there are almost no vision issue.

A bit of experiment to recreate a 15th century kidney pouch
Pockets are quite modern, back then, cute little bags like these were hung on a belt.
Not sure how well this would hold up in modern day, but a fun little experiment!
