Participating in a live action role playing game is a demanding feat no matter where you are doing it. Once you get beyond the challenges of staying in game, the emotional minefield that is presented throughout the story, and avoiding the drama queens that make the game tedious you still have to deal with the environmental upset that occurs in any season.
While a previous article touched upon how to address LARPing in colder climates(part 1, 2, and 3) there are a variety of different challenges that present themselves when LARPing in the heat.
The ‘Live Action Role Playing Blog’ approached the challenges of LARPing in hotter weather and rather than repeating what they had to say here I decided to do a “mini-article” as a comment to their post. You can find their tips, along with my particular slant on the subject, can be found here: http://larpers.wordpress.com/2009/07/06/larp-costume-tips-for-hot-weather/
All the best to your future LARP endeavours,
