Costume
Guide
At all LARP Entertainment events we have a set standard of costume that
must be met for playing each race. Some races have a higher costume standard
then others; this is because some races take more work, costume wise,
to make a player look like that race. Costume covers makeup, clothing,
prosthetic makeup and accessories.
Why do we have costume standards?
We have costume standards to help improve our customer’s
role play experience. By players and monsters looking like the race they
are meant to be playing it makes it easier for other to role playa round
them. This is because it will become easily recognisable what race you
are playing. Costume standards is all part of LARP Entertainments efforts
to immerse the player in a high fantasy world.
It’s important to remember to use suitable fabrics
and clothing when putting together your costume. You must always keep
in mind that your are playing a character in a high fantasy world. This
means that clothing fashions will rang between primeval to Napoleonic
depending upon the race. Jeans, trainers, t-shits, tracksuits and other
such clothing, should never been warn on the out side of your costume.
