True Nordic is a larp about a larp community in the beginning of a journey of discovery through larp. It is a larp about larpers, relationships and personal development from larp. As a player you will follow your character through larp debriefs, workshops and non-verbal time lapses. You will experience how larping in the deep end will impact your character and what could happen when larp communities segregate away from the mainstream of our community.
This is how the True Nordic larpers describe themselves. “True Nordic is the way of transformation and discovering your true self as life is to short to limit it to only be yourself. Every character and challenge is a mirror showing who you are and who you could become. In True Nordic we play the characters that challenge us to grow as humans to help us become our best selves. This is not about fun or playing history, it’s about self-improvement and deep understanding. Most people think they know their limits, they are wrong. They only know their fears. In True Nordic we will expand your comfort zone. If you want safe – go elsewhere. If you want real, raw, and life-changing – welcome to True Nordic.”
