Drop your sword! How to regulate your emotions and check in with yourself inside and out of LARP
Drop your sword! No, for real. Drop it! How many times do you catch yourself stressed, angry, frustrated during the day? We’ll work with how you can ‘check in’ with yourself, your emotions and your current state and regulate, if needed. But hey, we might as well flip the coin and use this trick to build character emotions for LARP situations. So, do you have your sword? 😉

Engagement et GN : un travail d’équipe (in French)
(In French)Volunteer involvement within our organizations and associations is the driving force behind our projects. So it’s only natural that the challenges of building, retaining and renewing volunteer teams are major issues for our structures.
In the course of our activity, we’ll start with a well-documented introduction to these issues, followed by time for discussion and the creation of tools in sub-groups on these three themes. This activity is intended for (future) volunteers, who will be able to express their wishes and needs, as well as for organizers, who will be able to exchange best practices and learn from volunteer feedback.

Créer un scénario court : la méthode danoise (in French)
This workshop invites you to work on your short-form scenario (3-8 players for 4-5 hours of play), inspired by the scenario creation workshops conducted in Denmark as part of the Fastaval gaming convention, an institution in its almost 30-year history.
After a short presentation on the essential aspects to consider, we’ll work collectively on the question of the premise (themes) of the LARP. Then, as participants choose, we’ll move on to either structure (scenes) or characters and their relationships. And, time permitting, we’ll conclude with a discussion of rules and communication around the scenario. We recommend that participants bring their own ideas for scenarios to work on (just a few ideas/concepts will suffice).

Très sourde et joueuse, c’est possible !
Some of you may have come across me in LARP. I’m very deaf and I’ve been playing LARP for a while now. So I’d like to share with you my experience and my accessibility needs, as well as how best to welcome a player with a hearing problem. I’ll also give you an introduction to French sign language and French spoken language (LfPC).

The Way of Cooperative Larp design – From the beginning to future possibilitie
The workshop is based on our experiences in organizing our game, called ‘The Frozen World’.

(Français) Il n’y a pas de petites émotions
What if a Larp didn’t need big emotions, tears, unforgettable passion and untold drama to be a success?
From the initial idea to the note of intent to the interpretation, this workshop is here to give you an accelerated experience of what a “small emotions” LARP can be, i.e. with sometimes more subtle arcs that won’t necessarily change the face of the world or a person’s destiny. And yet they’re no less interesting, gripping and emotionally rich (after all, it’s not the size of the emotions that counts, but the way in which they’re brought to life).

The workshop workshop
Workshops!
They seem to be the cool thing to do, the conditio sine qua non for a true ‘nordic style’ or even international larp. They also seem to be shoved around and into events for the sake of having a workshop, and do you really need that line-up exercise for your specific larp, or are you just throwing it in there because everyone seems to do so? And well, actually, what makes a good workshop work? And what makes it work in your specific larp?
In this short workshop (yes, indeed, very meta), we will jump headfirst into workshops, and try to make more sense of the exercises and the way they are delivered as well as of the way you structure and fit them in your larp.
