Last Hope started as a small idea; to run a small, low key, but high quality and realistic live action role play for a core group. As the ground work began to take shape and resources were gathered, the potential for something much larger was realized. The US scene for large scale, high quality, and immersion driven role playing events was lacking.
'''Last Hope''' is a fantasy [[live-combat]] larp in the [[USA]]. It is an attempt to run a high-costume, high-immersion larp in the USA.
 
Last Hope aims to fill that void with the Old World yearly event, yet still keep its roots in a small and quality driven live action role play with the standard Last Hope. The Last Hope live action role play is definitely a more serious LARP; there will minimums for garb, the tone and setting is dark and gritty, and the combat is more realistic and magic is less fantastic than other games. Monsters will look like monsters with full costumes and dedicated players; there will be no question when a Mordok or Undead is coming after you! This is a core aspect of our live action role play; to make it a believable and immserive experience.
