Five Star Gift Ideas

For your friend who has a passion for live-action role-playing (LARPing), here are a few meaningful and personal gift ideas that they will surely appreciate:

1. Customized LARP Weapon or Armor: LARPers are always on the lookout for unique and stylish weapons or armor to enhance their costumes. Consider gifting your friend a custom-made LARP weapon or a piece of armor that matches their character or persona. This can be a sword, shield, helm, or even a full suit of armor. Look for local artisans who specialize in LARP gear or explore online stores for a wider range of options.

2. LARPing Accessories: LARPers often require various accessories to enhance their role-playing experience. Consider gifting your friend items like a high-quality leather belt with pouches for carrying important items during their LARP events, a utility kit with tools specific to LARPing, or a collection of prosthetic wounds and scars that can be used to create realistic effects during gaming.

3. LARP Books and Guides: LARP rules and settings can be complex, especially for beginners. Help your friend to expand their knowledge of LARPing by gifting them a collection of LARP books and guides. These books can cover topics such as LARP character creation, costume crafting, combat techniques, or even immersive storytelling. Ensure the books are relevant to their preferred LARP genre to make the gift more personalized.

4. LARP Membership or Event Tickets: Surprise your friend with a membership to a local LARP community or tickets to an upcoming LARP event or convention. This gift allows them to indulge in their hobby and connect with like-minded individuals who share the same passion for live-action role-playing. Participating in events gives them ample opportunities to create memorable experiences and make new friends.

5. LARP Clothing and Costumes: LARPers often invest a lot of time and effort in designing and crafting their own costumes. But supplementary clothing and accessories are always appreciated. Consider gifting your friend a unique piece of clothing that complements their existing LARP attire. It could be a period-inspired cloak, a custom-made tunic with their character's emblem, or even stylish boots or gloves specifically designed for LARPing.

6. LARP-related Artwork or Decor: If your friend enjoys incorporating LARP elements into their everyday life, consider gifting them LARP-related artwork or decor. You can find beautifully illustrated posters, paintings, or prints that depict their favorite LARP scenes or characters. Additionally, you could also consider custom-made LARP-themed jewelry, such as pendants or rings featuring symbols or motifs from their favorite LARP world.

Remember, when selecting a gift for your friend who loves LARPing, consider their individual preferences, preferred LARP genre, and existing collection. By choosing something that aligns with their interests and enhances their role-playing experience, you can give them a gift they will truly cherish.

Or you can get her/him a star map with the date of the wedding.

“This was such a beautiful gift for my son and his wife for the day they married. My only problem was I left it in the cart where I tried to buy a frame and they never got to see it. I have to order another one, it was too perfect of a gift 🎁👍❤️”
