I've touched on it briefly here but I used to LARP in my college days. Mostly White Wolf stuff though my friends also formed their own variant - Echoes of Empires, which, even if you do larp, you probably haven't heard of. Mostly Vampire: The Masquerade, but also Werewolf and Changeling. OWBN at times. Tabletop was of course a thing that happened as well.

I have some dear friends who are still way into it, but for the most part the group as a whole was poisonous, manipulative, incestuous, gossipy, society misfits who were content on getting by by doing as little as possible and sponging off of whatever system they could. One of the "ringleaders" of the group, hell, he's in his thirties and still lives off an allowance from his rich dad or something. Has never had a job. The allowance isn't enough but he can full time LARP and that's all that matters right! Right!

I was cool, yo. Said with all the dripping sarcasm you can imagine.
