Welcome to Tales of Aloria! We are a Boffer LARP, meaning we primarily focus on combat and sparring with supporting story elements and activities such as trials and field events. We're located in and around Syracuse, but we welcome anyone interested in what some of our members affectionally call "LARP MilSim".
LARP, which stands for Live Action Role Playing, is a form of role-playing game where the participants physically act out their characters' actions. Unlike traditional tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons, LARP involves players actually embodying their characters in a real-world setting, often using costumes and props.
In Tales of Aloria, we select fighter names and build our garb (attire fit for fighting), weapon kits, and personal back stories around ourselves and our clans. We aren't so much acting out a character, as inserting ourselves into a different world.
Tales of Aloria is a Boffer LARP, meaning our weapons are made to be safe for full contact sparring which makes for some amazing field fights! Our goal is to get to 50 fighters on the field in 2024, allowing for simulated medieval combat on a large scale! Come join our ranks!
Bring your comfiest gym style clothes, ideally something that doesn't restrict your movement. 90% of what we do is based around learning to fight with varying types of foam weapons (swords, glaives, shields, spears, daggers, axes, bows, etc.). Jeans are the WORST to fight in, they limit your mobility and aren't comfortable to move in.
We have loaner equipment we can provide so you can get a feel for what works for you, so show up and give it a try! We'll arm you for combat and teach you the basics.
In Aloria, we believe in hitting hard and taking light. If you’re looking to join a fun LARPing community that embraces traditional martial arts, modern sports sparring techniques, and wants you to look and feel amazing while training, you’ve found the right place. Our goal is to create a premier place for LARPing and grow our numbers to 50 by the end of the year!
Aloria serves and recruits from Onondaga County and nearby surrounding counties as well. In winter months and times of adverse weather we practice indoors, and when the weather is nice you'll often see us at local parks!
If you’re part of another LARP and want to join us at our indoor location within Aikido of Central New York so you don’t get rusty, please reach out to Duwi Nayo (AKA: Collin Phillips) to arrange introductions and arrange for practice dues. Our dues ensure that we can continue to support not only our own community, but that of Aikido of Central New York.
We have been graciously invited to use the dojo of Aikido of Central New York for our winter practices and any time the weather isn't quite right for foam equipment. If you're looking for an indoor location to LARP in when it's snowing or rainy out, we've got your back.
An excellent question, membership is $50.00 a month and covers access to all of our weekly training sessions, a monthly tourney or mini-event, and most importantly: it pays for our insurance and location costs. Your dues also help us acquire prizes for our larger tourneys, which can include winning new larp weapons!
Having a rough time? Many of us are. Reach out to us if you're interested, but finances are tight. We would rather have you on the field than not at all!
We are a full contact “Boffer LARP”, meaning we use foam covered and padded weapons so we can move quickly without hurting our fellow larpers. We have everything from foam swords, foam shields, foam spears, bows with foam tipped arrows (yes, Legolas, foam tipped arrows!), and more!
If you’re looking for a fun experience that also serves as great cardio, pick up a foam sword and join our ranks.
We use primarily light LARPing, meaning we're mostly focused on the outcomes of actual spars and dedicated battles. We spend most of our time training, sparring, crafting, and otherwise having fun as we prep for upcoming events!
Tales of Aloria is committed to providing an inclusive space where everyone can let their imagination roam freely. The only intolerance we permit, is intolerance to intolerance itself.
We love a good set of gear. Aloria allows for a range of weapons, armor, and garments that maintains authenticity and functionality, while still being safe for LARP environments. We can help you learn how to craft your gear, or, we can direct you to qualified vendors who provide high quality goods. We encourage not only leather and steel armor sets, but also vegan friendly options as well.
As our numbers begin to grow we will begin to incorporate roleplay elements into our practices. At the sound of a chime or horn, you will know to drop “into character” so to speak, so that we can embrace our inner thespians!
We love welcoming new LARPers to the fold, come visit if you're interested in seeing a practice! Or, give us a call or an email.
