Kaza, about her character: "She's known to be someone to fear" Kaza: *Shows footage of her being adorable* Me: oh yes I'm very scared now 😂

[@ReadyForLifeToStart]

"Are you the one they call Jenny" *Very shakily* "Yea" BIG mood

[@GoldenHyac1nth]

[@MoMoOBrien]

Notification squad!!! Awesome job Kaza ❤️❤️❤️ I can’t wait for part 2 ❤️❤️❤️

[@holidayymann1769]

[@ellawemlinger5479]

Hey Mo mo, I know you commented a year ago, but I'm a big fan, and just want to say you, Kaza, azrai, and will are a big inspiration to me. You've helped me get through some tough patches. Thank you all

[@aminadaifi6762]

I love how less than five minutes after the demon was summoned somebody began dancing with her 😂 it’s fantastic

[@oddeyes9413]

My roommate and I are planning on making Armistice Arcane our first Larp. I've always wanted to do a gothic Victorian character as I'm writing a book with those elements. I'm just trying to figure out if this is something where it's full on Victorian clothing or you can add some Steampunk elements to your character

[@zeddy2284]

theres a steampunk faction me thinks!

[@oliviajeane.]

Odd Eyes94 ....of only I was old enough ;-;........

[@Aro_dynamic46]

I need to stop watching these LARP videos, they’re making me jealous because I can’t go to them

[@alicine-sims8988]

Honestly feel exactly the same.

[@rachelmoody1520]

mood

[@renthecrow2837]

Opal Wolf bro same

[@SoulRythm]

I know how you feel.

[@spinstercatlady]

I've never LARP'ed or even role played, but this looks so incredibly fun!!

[@Jarons20]

Clever way to disarm your foes who only know you through word of mouth. Seriously considering attending the next based off the videos Ive seen

[@KazaMarie]

Please come try! Its a really great time. Food was amazing too. ;p

[@JordanVanRyn]

I'm glad that you went to go this event and had fun. I hope there's a chance I can get to go there and experience it. I love Penny Dreadful and this looks cool!

[@xyz-ty7lr]

Such a fantastic video Kaza! Makes me homesick for New Orleans.

[@Lauren_Helene]

Lol if I was even old enough, I would probably sit in a corner because of my lacking social skills 😂

[@alicine-sims8988]

One of the best things about LARPs is you aren't you, you're playing some character instead. It really helps with social anxiety and everything, and especially with any sort of, "but what will they think of me?" Fear. Because they aren't going to have negative opinions of you if you say something weird, that's just your character saying it. If you really get in character you don't worry so much about social anxiety or lack of social skills. Or even being a generally quiet person. At least that's my experience with roleplay, and if you want to try it out don't let something like social skills get in your way.

[@Mimsicle]

What a beautiful video! This makes me a little less sad about being an ocean away from this awesome event.

[@keevamcnutt1066]

I really wanna try the ghost signature thing now

[@peppyquack4072]

I've never been to a larp before, but really want to. With this, was there an outlined story, or where all the characters just kind of placed in the setting and created their own stories?

[@KazaMarie]

The writers gave us characters that had woven storylines that connected them. Throughout the even secrets were revealed that tied us all to the main story. :)

[@audreyintheuniverse6592]

You’re so good at introducing the larp. You don’t immediately bombard us with a bunch of words we don’t understand because we haven’t been to the larp (like sentinels, etc)

[@beriukay]

Thanks for sharing the video. It's nice to have a drip feed while we wait for next year... Also, it was an odd experience, seeing myself in the background in a bunch of your important scenes! Signed, Extra #56

[@MrPandafarts]

Another great video and I haven't even finished it yet :) Great intro!

[@MsELaHood]

This. Is. So. Cool!!! Ugh I wish I could larp.

[@davidaiello3754]

Kaza that was awesome! I'm looking to get into the story side of LARP, having been all-boffer since forever-GENCON ago; This was a really good introduction to the story side of a LARP community event, And I really appreciated it, And you're wonderful, And Yah Yah Yah! ^______^!

[@luealie7521]

5:55 when that Arcana music played. Man I felt something.

[@dagger_fearne]

so beautiful. thank you, Kaza!

[@TojiChiba]

1:37 Ericka looking awesome as always 😊

[@pollypocket2282]

Woohoo! I’ve been waiting for this!

[@morningboy_]

I love this LARP and I really wanna go to it 🥺 the dark academia aesthetic of it is like s t u n n i n g

[@TheFayeKat]

Can't sleep so I'm watching videos in anticipation of next year. I can't wait to play with you!

[@cartoonaddict6493]

i like how she said it'll taste bitter then hand it to you with just a shit-eating grin on her face XD lmao

[@ladyalfhildrforestofvioletmist]

Very cool! Sometimes I'd like a bit more context or explanation -- you started to do so, but there were still times when I didn't know what was going on. It's still cool when it's mysterious, but I did want to know more of the story. Looking forward to part 2, though :)

[@KazaMarie]

Part 2 will be next year's event in January. I do try to give enough information about how to get involved, general knowledge of the event and show some of the cool scenes. A lot of times I don't want to ruin plot lines for new players or current players, so I remove some of the narration. I ask the viewers to take a look at the emotion that is driving people and try to hold on to that beauty as they watch. I have been doing a few livestreams to take questions. I hope you'll be there the next time I do one in case you need anything clarified. If you want to know more about the story of Armistice Arcane, I have a few more videos that covered the development of my character, as well as a few of my friends made some videos that are more lore heavy. Sorry for the long response!

[@ladyalfhildrforestofvioletmist]

Ah, okay, I could see that. I was just wondering things like who poisoned you and why exactly, but I guess I can see how you want to keep the plot secret. I also thought that the plot would be different enough each time that telling us things about this one would spoil the next one, but I guess that's maybe because this one's a larp with character casting so maybe it doesn't change as much from time to time in the big plot points. I think I saw most all of your Armistice Arcane videos leading up to this one. I haven't ever caught one of your livestreams, but I'll keep my eyes open :) And don't worry, I've written plenty of longer comments myself!

[@marcusager974]

Those costumes are kick ass!

[@Jarons20]

Did you get to do anything else in New Orleans? Walk the cemeteries in costume?

[@SirenVoyager]

You and your boy are so cute together!

[@goldentriokeybladecrusader]

I'm hopefully going to AA2 so I'll hopefully see you there

[@Jarons20]

May I ask how you captured footage? Iphone or gopro? how did you keep it conspicuous?

[@KazaMarie]

It depends on the larp. Sometimes I am granted access to use my DSLR. When that is the case, I stay behind and try to cover it up. Set it down on tables or disguise my tripod. I try not to break anyone's immersion, however sometimes it is visible. I also do an announcement before I attend to let people know they can contact me if they don't want to be film and instructions on how to avoid the camera. My camera person and I usually take a lot of measures to make sure we are discrete about what we do. From time to time I used my phone to get photos. My gopro is pretty useful too! I used that a lot for Dragon Thrones. However, it sees more of its use when I'm on the battlefield.

[@goldentriokeybladecrusader]

Hello kaza! I'm a good friend of Angel and I'm coming to AA 2 and I can't wait to meet you.

[@NorishiNyan]

I'm curious if a person out of game approaches you do you snap out of character to address them, or continue in character.

[@KazaMarie]

For me, I stay in character for as long as possible. If there is a safety concern or clarification to be made I will talk out of character to prevent confusion.

[@vampirefemboy]

When you wish there were Larp events for Teens

[@KazaMarie]

There are tons of larps out there that allow teens to play but a few larp summer camps that are ran specifically for teens. A few of my friends have gone and enjoyed their time. If you are comfortable letting me know what area you are in, I can recommend an area. :)

[@vampirefemboy]

@@KazaMarie OH.. i didn't expect you to reply. sure, i live in the Pittsburgh area.....

[@KazaMarie]

I love Pittsburgh! My favorite bakery is there and I love the Ramen Bar! My friends attend a larp camp call Wayfinder in NY. If that is too far for you, I can try to find something closer to home. www.wayfinderexperience.com/

[@number5279]

Larp Girl do you know any near LA? Im a teen also : )

[@morningboy_]

Kaza Marie thanks this helped me as well! I live in the NY area near that LARP and I’m gonna see if I can go next year : )

[@HecateYada]

God, I wanna do LARPs this- How do you have enough money to get to do all these different events?!

[@KazaMarie]

The larp companies and I create a contract in exchange for services. I create videos for their experience. I am paid in event fees waved, travel expenses and the time spent editing to produce content for their larp.

[@HecateYada]

@@KazaMarie Ah, right! That makes a lot of sense- I've never been to a LARP before but I would literally kill to attend one. Unfortunately, there's not that many in the UK- in my area at least.

[@thornaustin3828]

How did you know your cup was "poisoned" or did you think it up?

[@KazaMarie]

We negotiated the scene before it happened. With consent based role play scenes, generally someone will approach you with an idea and the two people decide how it will play out. For this scene, the player said he wanted to poison someone. I volunteered and we negotiated that at some point during the day, he would need to slip the poison in my tea. So I left my tea unattended many times to give the player the opportunity to do so. The giveaway was that the poison was alcohol. So when I tasted it in my tea, I knew the other player had successfully got the poison in my drink. I waited awhile and roleplayed being poisoned. The fun was seeing other people's reactions to it and being apart of others problem solving. :)

[@MystraRavenwind]

I'm late to the party but what type of larp is this considered? It seems very intriguing.

[@KazaMarie]

Armistice Arcane is an "American Freedom" style larp. They use check in mechanics to navigate roleplay and a story facilitator to deliver plot to induvial factions. The writing team writes up characters for players that are woven together to reveal a larger story. However, most of the rp, scenes and story paths are lead by the players.

[@MystraRavenwind]

@@KazaMarie cool thank you.

[@beccal7713]

OOOOOOH I WANNA GO!!!

[@holidayymann1769]

DUDE, i want to be that pope dude guy!

[@kingsmeds1]

Kaza how much of the dialog is scripted. Or is adlib a big part

[@KazaMarie]

All of the storytelling is improvised. There is a writing staff that operates as GMs and facilitate storytelling elements. The only dialog that is scripted would be the workshops and any big plot points that the players need to understand clearly. :)

[@brianaokane7533]

oh my gosh momo :D

[@amythest5248]

Its momoooo
