LARPwest is a community group which supports its members and LARP organisers to facilitate a range of Live Action Role Play (LARP) games within Western Australia. This includes provision of governance and compliance support, insurance, community management and promotion.

LARP is a hobby which includes a wide variety of themes, styles, rules and game lengths. Our current events range from medieval fantasy games like Concord and Faith & Steel, to the urban gothic of Vampire the Masquerade, the magical intrigue and mischief of Ravenswood Institute and many flavours of creativity and roleplay in between.

Join us to explore the world of LARP!

Our LARP Events

CONCORD

Concord is a fantasy weekender LARP in Perth, Western Australia. It is based on the Empire LARP system by Profound Decisions in the UK, but with a combat and spell casting system more commonly found here, a new setting and a more streamlined overall ruleset. It is written by Michael Harris and launched in July 2021.

FAITH AND STEEL

On a field of yellow flowers, mortal enemies once again meet in battle. Emerging from the rising sun, the disciplined and devout soldiers of the Empire. To greet them with ferocity, the naturalistic, united warriors of the Clans. Welcome to the world of Faith and Steel.

RAVENSWOOD INSTITUTE

Ravenswood Institute is a nordic-inspired parlour LARP that makes use of a modern day setting. The main games will focus on your journey as a student of Ravenswood Institute. Where magic is real, and magical experiments can go wondrously right… or horribly wrong. Ravenswood Institute is a location of higher learning within the setting of our game, like a Magical University, as such you should consider what goals you have as a student.

JUGGERS

POX-ECLIPSE is a Wasteland Event that runs annually. As part of this event a sport is played known as “JUGGERS” or “The Game”. As such, training events for Juggers are run fortnightly Sundays at Bassendean Primary School Oval as a LARPwest Event.

LARPWEST PRESENTS

LARPWEST PRESENTS is a monthly exhibition of different events from our community, held at Wandi Community Center. It runs between the months of November to March.

PERTH BY NIGHT

The game’s setting is that of our own world, at least on the surface. Important locations, people, and events are all mirrored in the World Of Darkness. It just so happens that there might be more to them than meets the eye. Maybe World War II was started by a cult of vampire supremacists? Maybe Queen Victoria was a secret mage? Maybe Abraham Lincoln was a feared vampire hunter?

WEST NERF

West Nerf is one of the largest and longest running foam blaster clubs in Australia, celebrating our 15 year anniversary in 2024!
The club focuses primarily on regular skirmish games with several sites both north and south of the river currently in use.

ASHEN DAWN

Ashen Dawn is an 18+ one shot Post Apocalyptic Larp set in Western Australia. The event will be run in Boddington WA.
Three camps have come together at the Duchy of November Crossing for the Festival of Survivors. Once there they will negotiate trades and compete for winter tax concessions from the ruling family.
Prepare for questing, competitions, challenges and a grand feast on the Saturday night.
