#larp mask

So I make larp/therian masks…

It does require a little suspension of disbelief, but I find that they give me a lot of canid euphoria.

Maybe I’ll make a couple to sell someday soon. Life has been extremely busy with a new day job, but the more I work on this design the more I want to share it. It shouldn’t be hard to modify into other animals, either. One of my canid patterns has ears already attached, and they kind of cover your own so that’s pretty neat.

These are leather but it’s not hard at all to make them from foam if that bothers anyone.

WIPs of a mask I’m working on for a larp I plan to attend. It’s my first time making anything like this, so I’m really proud of how it’s coming out. Fingers crossed I can get this baby finished, molded, and cast before next summer!

Just Another Autistic LARPer

(I need to vent.)

I was so brutally bullied into submission growing up, I consciously forced myself to learn to mask. Then I was taught to make accommodations for people who didn't or couldn't mask. It hurt, because I was never offered the same considerations. Of course I believe they deserved accommodations - I just wanted that, too. Now I'm angry, but trying not to be. I had to find ways to manage.

When I was twenty, I started LARPing. I invented a character who was loud, rude, and stupid. This way, when I opened my mouth, I didn't have to be afraid of what people thought of me. If they hated my personality, I was just playing my character right. Sometimes, even when I played her, I just wandered around quietly, staring. As in my real life, I felt unwanted. But sometimes I forced myself to hoot and holler - enough that I had a reputation as a loud ditz that followed me to my social interactions with LARPers outside of the games.

At least, I learned the basics of interacting. You open your mouth and make sounds. People react. You try to make the right sounds.

I used that to get along for the rest of my life. I learned to make eye contact by working at a grocery store. Customers get angry when you don't pay attention to them. The more I masked, the more I learned to mask. The more I LARPed, the more autistic people I met. I felt like they were my people, but I felt like they were looking at me as an outsider now, too, like everyone else.

For a while, I only played "weird" characters at LARPs. Characters that would be outsiders because, I told myself, I was acting. Then I played characters who had what I didn't have - self confidence and self love. Characters who just assumed they were the best and the most beloved. Characters who didn't feel guilt for being alive. That felt good, I'm not gonna lie.

The more I played outgoing characters, the more I learned to mask. But there were always these moments, even in chatacter, where my throat went silent, and nobody invited me to sit by them, so I still felt wrong and unwanted.

I used everything I learned there in my real life, to work. That's what we train our whole lives for. I had a hard time keeping a job. I have a hard time understanding what people want from me. I have a hard time managing my job, and my temper. I never felt cut out for great ambitions.

When I finally worked up the courage to be tested for autism and adhd, my therapist at the time said, "You can't have those. You're good at holding a conversation, and you make eye contact. Plus, autistic people don't really know how to have feelings."

I will be 43 in a month. I was just diagnosed - ADHD a few months ago, autism a few weeks ago (plus ADHD confirmed.) But I feel like my sense of self has been absolutely and completely bullied and trained out of me. I feel like I don't belong in any world.

I'm not in any danger of hurting myself or leaving this world. I'm just sad, and busy picking up the pieces.

A rare personal post to share my newest larp kit

Natasha is an evil sorceress who hunts down people with traits she likes, so she can have them "stitched" onto her (it's fantasy plastic surgery)

She calls it "upcycling"

She cares about the environment!

This is our Raccoon Nose foam latex prosthetic. It was applied and painted with makeup as a natural tanuki (raccoon-dog).

I'm wearing a fur hood with our Feline Prop Ears are attached into it.

All of these prosthetics are available on our website: https://northfur.ca

There's also a video:

A wonderful commission I did! Once again, these are some friend's larp characters. The woman on the right is named Atena and from the in-world culture Saek, heavily inspired by Middle Eastern and North African nomadic cultures. The man on the right is Curriel, from Cole (pirate culture) and part celestial, hence the extra eyes. There is only one additional eye in this drawing, but he has several on his body and his arms. I'm trying to remember to watermark my art as well, though I don't expect anyone would try to steal my art. I really enjoy how these two came out!

I just realized that I never shared any of my summer larp photos, which is a crime

I’m in all of them, so now it’s time to play everyone’s favorite game, “Where’s Meteor”

#I was on three this summer and they were all back to back #the second one tho (the one where me and my group wore masks) I played mute tho #So that was really fun #My names are Lillium Bothynus #Khufu Sommarvind #and Inhe #Inhe used to have a last name but they don’t anymore #larp #larp photos #larpers #fantasy larp #me irl

Just sharing a mask I’m working on. It’s meant to be a blend of deer and wolf skulls, but I still have a long way to go.

I tell ya, if we ever get a shapeshifting Green Goblin in the movies, it needs to be a “all-in-one” package deal.

No weird compromise where Norman is like “Haha! I have pointy ears and green scales -for some reason-, now let me get to my pumpkin bombs and glider stash so I can fight you properly”  This feels like a weird detour to me, it’s uneeded.

Go the Ultimate comics way, when the gadget are genetically incorporated. You don’t need to follow the design to a T, but maybe he’s got something like spores bombs he can generate and wings or something.

I love the tech corny halloween gimmick, but Norman with all his abilites at the ready feels like a more stremalined, sleeker way to go, if you’re want to go the Monster!Goblin route.

#goblin got adapted so much in the movies at this point i'm starting to feel like only extremes will work if we ever him again in the movies #either he's a normal dude larping hard wearing a full suit and mask combo #or he becomes a literal demon they tried to make a compromise like four times now and it only works like half the time #green goblin #marvel #spider-man

Sometimes I'll make some innocuous comment or choice and my partner will give me a Look, and it's because we both know im doing it for The Character

#this is not inspired by any recent events #fuck off lou #my post #i just mean in the past ive bought clothes or ordered food or cut my hair #specifically to mimic a character i like #and whenever my partner hears of it they just give me the most delighted look #like they think im so adorable for this momentary lapse in masking #as i indulge in the autistic urge to larp as an adult
