Against the Verdant

Welcome to Against the Verdant, a pre-apocalytpic LARP, run in association with Legendary LARP, in which players must work together in a last desperate attempt to save the human world…
 
The Glamour
Fairies do not exist. They are the stuff of fantasy. A parent's warning to stop wayward children wandering into the forest, a babysitter's whimsical tale, spun to coax an excitable ward to sleep. Printed on lunchboxes and t-shirts, streamed to television and cinema screens, immortalised in literature and language.

Fairies are not real. 

 
The Truth
The Fey are real. Until recently, they wanted to maintain the Glamour as much as you did. 
 
The Peace
The Avalon Initiative, founded by the legendary members of King Arthur's court, has maintained Arthur's will for centuries, holding the Fey at arms length from most mortals, and maintaining the veil for some semblance of normality. 

This is not warfare. Deals are struck, compromises reached and alliances upheld. 
The Government is kept fleetingly aware of what is going on, but worldwide policy in respect to the health of the world, carbon emissions, plastic pollution, and deforestation continue. 

For the most part, the general public know nothing of the Fey, and their territory known as 'the Green' only intersects our world in remote, hidden locations.

 
The War
The war came quickly, heralded first by the sudden failure of any gun, rocket, or missile. 

Then, multiple military bases, both overt and clandestine, became overrun by rapidly growing plant life, breaking through concrete, throttling vehicles, reclaiming wood. 
The Cadres of the Fey Courts hunted in their element, dismantling each mounted resistance, targeting their attacks with precision. 

Catterick Garrison, RAF Brize Norton, and countless more fell within the day. Avalon 01 lasted longer than most, but within 24 hours, defeat came. 
The Green began to bleed from them, pushing insidious vines into the realm of mortals, building the very first foundations of The Verdant Wood.
 
The Thought
The world as we knew it is coming to an end. The Fey Courts are reclaiming land that once was theirs in times long gone. Humanity is falling. The Time of Fairies has begun.


The Reality
There is still time. There is still hope. There are still those willing to fight the onslaught. It's time to stand Against the Verdant.
