Dreams of Deirdre will be holding a pulp science fiction LARP called "20 Million Leagues to Mars" at DunDraCon 2010 in San Ramon, on February 12. This game is a Victorian Spacefaring game, a Steampunk/Space 1889-esque offering for which we recommend Victorian Naval or traveling "adventuring" clothes.

August 22, 2009

Dreams of Deirdre will be presenting the Star Wars-themed LARP “Togatto Nights” at the 2009 PacifiCon Game Expo in Santa Clara. We know it starts no sooner than 11:30 am on Saturday, September 5, but please review the convention schedule for times, locations, and signup procedures.

“Togatto Nights” is set between episodes 1 and 2, before the Clone Wars, and will focus on the pod-racing community. Players are encouraged to dress in costume, but doing so is not a guarantee of a particular type of character. Costume recommendations include alien outfits, racing gear, or anything which a Star Wars socialite would wear to a party. Click here for more information.

Dreams of Deirdre will be putting on "Pajama Promises" at DunDraCon 2009. This is a contemporary modern horror/mystery LARP set at a remote summer camp. Pajamas encouraged but not required!

August 6, 2008

Dreams of Deirdre will be putting on "The Unholy Empire " at Pacificon Game Expo: ConQuest 2008. Costuming for this Discworld-based LARP can vary widely, so feel free to dig up your Ren Faire garb or dark, Gothic clothing! Almost anything goes in this political tour-de-force inspired by Terry Pratchett's most famous "world spinning on the back of four elephants who rest atop a giant space turtle floating through the infinite, starry void"... or something.

About Dreams of Deirdre

Dreams of Deirdre is a bay area centered LARP troupe specializing in closed door, single shot LARPs. We've run at Dundracon, Con-quest, Kublacon , and on rare occasions we run a game outside a con setting. While we consider White Wolf's Changeling to be our home genre, we've branching out lately. A lot. See the events page for more information.

A number of people have asked us where we got our name. It is derived from an Irish fairy tale, but since not everyone is as well versed in clasic Irish fairy tales as they should be, we've put it up here.
