Eldaraenth 4.0 Game Relaunch FAQ

We are relaunching the game, does this mean that character histories are also restarting? 

 No. We are relaunching the game with a new set of rule and a more rigid and clearly defined mundane game structure. The established storyline for the game world, beginning with the original Whalers event and running through the Conquest LARP will be continued. The three events held during Eldaraenth 3rd Edition are not considered part of the storyline.

Who is running the game? 

At the National Level, the game is currently being run by Matt Brotherton (Gariff). He is currently serving as both the Nation Story Marshal and the Game President.

At the local level, that is decided from chapter to chapter based on their by-laws.

What do I need to start a chapter? 

To become an official chapter in the game you need five (5) players, at least two (2) offices - A Chief Executive Officer and Combat Marshal, and a set of by-laws. When you have these three things, submit them to the Game Owner via email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . You will receive a chapter charter with your chapter name and founding members. Your chapter will also be added to the website's official chapter listing, and you'll get your own chapter forums.

What happened to offensive magic?

Some uppity mage got to big for his breeches, and it was taken away from everyone as a punishment.

Can I be a hyper-space monkey pirate-ninja-robot? 

The world of Eldaraenth is a very defined medieval fantasy world that stand completely apart from other worlds, even the ones that influenced its creation.  To answer you question, I'll point out a paragraph from the character creation rules:

Character histories that try to make a character into a vampire, were-beast, demon or demi-god, fairy, dragon kin, or other supernatural creature will be rejected. Only those races listed within these rules will be accepted.

Avoid using another player character in your character history, unless you have the player’s permission and agreement on how the character will be used. Finally, avoid the use of names and histories that belong to characters that appear in copy written material. let the world of Eldaraenth shape your character while your character helps to shape the world.

If you have a character in mind outside of these races, it probably doesn't fit with the world, however Eldaraenth is large and diverse, and if you are dead set on playing that character, you need to seek approval of your local story marshal. If you are not currently a member of a chapter, feel free to email myself ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ). I will do my best to give you what help I can.

Trust me, you'll enjoy the game more if your character fits into the world around it. You will also find other players more willing to work with you to help create your personal storyline.
