When you become a Member of Wandering Folk Society, you are joining more than just a game.

You are stepping into a vibrant social club built around shared creativity, immersive storytelling, and collaborative worldbuilding.

A Living Community, Online and Off

Membership gives you access to our private, members-only Discord server: a space to talk about all things LARP, life, and especially our flagship game Reckoning, set in the realm of The March. In this space, you can roleplay between events, share lore, ask questions, brainstorm character ideas, or just connect with others who love the same strange and wonderful things you do.

Games Built for and by the Players

Our events are community-driven and designed around player agency. Staff and NPCs help shape the framework and handle the logistical planning, but the direction of the story is driven by your choices, your Culture’s values, and your character’s growth. Whether through politics, combat, crafting, diplomacy, or quiet personal moments, your actions matter and shape the world we build together.

Rich, Interactable Mechanics

The game features systems that support meaningful interaction—rituals, resource gathering, crafting, social intrigue, combat, and more—all built with consent and safety in mind. Our mechanics are designed to be immersive but intuitive, expanding as the community grows.

Events That Feel Like Coming Home

Expect immersive, dayslong experiences with fireside storytelling, spontaneous alliances, moonlit duels, bardic traditions, and unforgettable character moments. Events are held in outdoor venues that encourage connection to nature and a sense of being transported into another world.

A Social Club Rooted in Shared Values

Wandering Folk Society is a nonprofit social club, and that means everything we do is about building community. Members often contribute beyond the game by volunteering, sharing art, helping run events, or supporting others in and out of character. This is a space for collaboration, mutual care, and growth.

Support for Newcomers

Whether you are new to LARP or have years of experience, we are here to help. You will have access to guides, safety policies, mechanics, lore, and a welcoming community ready to answer questions and support your journey into the world of Reckoning and beyond.

A Voice in the Community

As a Member of Wandering Folk Society, you are not just a participant, you are part of a social club. That means you have the opportunity to vote on key decisions, elect leadership, and help shape the direction of the organization. We believe in collective stewardship, and your voice matters in how our events, policies, and shared spaces evolve.

Shared Expectations, Clear Values

Because we are a community-first organization, we rely on a shared set of expectations to help us maintain a space that is safe, inclusive, and creatively fulfilling. By becoming a Member, you agree to uphold the values of respect, consent, inclusion, and personal accountability, both at our events and in all community spaces.
