What is Maelstrom? I hear you ask.
Maelstrom is a lot of fun. I reply.
It is a national festLARP run by the fantastically lovely Matt Pennington and even lovelier crew of Profound Decisions
A player lead, PvP system. i.e the players make the system go round, whatever anyone does in the game will probably effect alot of other players in the game; and being PvP can be quite deadly...
Set in a roughly Colonial-America style. Think frock coats, wigs, big dresses, flintlock pistols and muskets and you’d be just about there :)
Maelstrom runs 4 times a year at weekends visiting various sites across the UK
There are several websites with pictures:
The Maelstrom Photo Archive also has links to photos taken by players at the major events as well as events run by players for players.
Details about the Maelstrom campaign can be found on the Maelstrom Campaign page and a little bit of Information about the characters I play can be found on the Characters page
