Project: Shining Light
October 16 @ 8:00 am – October 18 @ 5:00 pm
It is November 16th 1921, and the Great War continues, like a monstrous slumbering beast, breathing fire upon the might of The League of Nations. The world as we have known it has changed, and few countries are safe from the wrath of the Great Old Ones, once banished, now free.
You are the newest recruits to the Special Operations Project: Shining Light, a Government run Taskforce, created two years ago to investigate the Mythos and discover new ways to combat it.
The game is set in Macrihanish, a village on the west coast Scotland that has been beset by impenetrable mists that roll in from the sea. The village once housed a radio transmissions tower but there are rumours that something was left behind that could alter the direction of the war.
‘Project: Shining Light’ is a LARP based on the works of HP Lovecraft. The system has been designed to be rules lite (using traditional larp weapons and Nerf guns), with an emphasis on roleplay to better embrace the immersive horror that Lovecraft was famous for, so if you are looking for a game where combat is not the first answer, this may be the game for you.
