It is my childhood friends that made me discover Live Action Role Play, also known as LARP. For the longest time, they insisted that I should come to an event called “Terres Impériales” and that I would most probably like it because I already enjoyed roleplaying on forums.
I remember my first event really well. I was playing a forest elf ranger and my foam-headed arrows really weren't the best out there. I could barely shoot them five meters away. In other words, I was pretty useless in a fight. The other elves and myself had to prepare a forestine ceremony to thank the ancient forest spirits. We had to prepare beautiful gifts for them. I remember that the NPC priest that was leading us back then was particularly arrogant. But it was fun.
