Hello friends! Thank you so much to everyone who's seen this video! Took a while, and was not expecting so many new names to be commenting - you are all so kind and lovely. :) Did want to stop in to clarify about the in-game currency I mentioned - this currency is strictly used by guilds as part of the actual game. Any real-world transaction (such as buying food, drinks, goods from vendors, etc.) uses real money, so you don't need to worry about converting your cash. This said, while some vendors and all Bicolline official places such as the tavern, inn, and tuck shop, all take card, many vendors ONLY take cash, and there are no ATMs onsite. Since these are handmade goods, some items have a high pricetag, so please keep that in mind! Thank you again for watching, and happy LARPing!
Delighted role playing is alive & well. Old Hippie. Helped ad lib D&D off "Chain Mail" For 2 yrs before Gary compiled and published. Started out as stand up role playing adventures until laughing and falling on the floor. PEACE & LOVE
This video was so great to watch! I'm so glad you had fun at your first ever LARP, Bicolline is an INSANELY fun event to go to first. I also think you'd be surprised by how people would react to you saying you like these kind of events. I've been doing RenFairs and LARPS full time as a merchant for a little over a year now, and we end up trapped in our full garb constantly. We're out 3 weekends a month dressed like elves, knights, Fairies, adventurers, and wizards at random restaurants and gas stations. At first I was self conscious about people thinking we're crazy adult children, but I have not even once had a bad interaction out in public. In college towns people want to know how to join and if it's expensive to start. Getting gas or groceries people ask where we're coming from and I see them frequently the next day. At a nice restaurant on the way home people are always sad to hear our events have just ended and snap a photo with us. Even running out with my mate to grab us some sneaky wings from a sports bar mid day, people watching the game will come over and ask where to start with sword fighting. Fantasy is super main stream now, and I think we're all just stuck in our own heads thinking people will scoff at us. Every old southern mom has had a dream about being a queen or a princess, and every gym buff has seen LotR and wants to take out heaps of baddies with a long sword. I just turned 31, and if I could change anything it would be that I was too ashamed of my interests to let people know, when I finally did I realized it's really not that weird at all. anyway, thanks for coming to my TED talk lol, I'm so happy you found a new hobby you're passionate about! Have fun out there!
I’m comin too Bicco soon, I’m going too explore my first year and find where I best fit guild wise. But I love the Viking/heathen vibe. Hopefully with in the next 2 years🙃 BICOLLINE 2024-2025🎉🎉
There are many viking/heathen guilds, and they only keep growing! Also met some people from one called The Pact, relatively new, and they were all awesome people (the ceremony with the coloured smoke was put on by them). No matter what though, you'll find more than one place and many friends no matter what guild, and there's no rush to take your time before officially joining one! Hopefully you'll be able to get out, it's an amazing time! :)
This is an amazing video about Bico!!!!! I do all bico content for my channel and the amount of time you had to have put into this video is impressive! I was curious if there was a particular reason you didnt put the name Bicolline in the title? I feel like your video would be a big help for people who want to find out more info about it! you are the only one i have ever seen talk about non decorum camping!!
Also I just noticed you gave credit to me for using some footage from a video of mine!! That is so kind of you!!! My old channel name was just Tyler Scott but i changed it after this years Bico to Tallian Adventures. Also the pickpocket game is held by one of my good friends and guildmates named Wren! Such a fun game!
I also really relate to having to discover my love for bico/larp alone. Since when I discovered it i was not surrounded by a single person who was interested in this type of thing. Now about 7 years later I have a ton of friends all over the world from Bicolline!!
This randomly popped up on my recommended. You are enthralling to watch and listen to. Did you ever create a backstory for Elven Princess Moth? Grew up in the streets of Collinswood after her kingdom and family we all destroyed in the War of Que'Thelas. Absconded by the king's trusted Captain of the Guard, you were able to escape sudden death as the castle walls fell. You didn't stop crying for 3 days, only taking a break when you passed out from fatigue. over the next 7 years, Capt. Maltian trained you in the use of all manner of weapons, strategy, and tracking. You were determined to have your revenge on the King who stole your family and happiness from you so many years ago. Yeah. I was just bored lol. Actually, I've created so much more backstory, but you might think this is lame. So i spared you. Looking forward to your net video.
I'm glad that you've found your people, Moth. I hope that you did go back and got more involved in the event. I bet you could be a terror on the battlefield!
Thanks friend! :) I went for my third year this past summer, and have no plans on stopping any time soon. Unfortunately not much of a terror just yet, but hoping to improve in the future!
Hi Moth! You are such a beautiful soul and your smile is so very warming! I smiled the entire video loved your excitement. So glad you made the video, but even more so that you found yourself. I haven’t been to Bicolline but am thinking of taking my daughter (15) who is super excited about it. Of course she plans on going as a Viking. Thanks for putting a smile on my face.
Hey there! A friend and I attended Bicolline for the Grande Bataille last year as well. We went with The Voyage North, who provided us with meals, lodging and membership with one of three guilds (The March Wardens, Nova Vitae and Ordo Cervi) and all sorts of activities to do as well. The first few days was a bit wet, as there was a massive monsoon that hit us, although our encampment was flooded, it was nowhere near as bad as some of the other groups. The word on the street was that the orcs got it the worse. In spite of the soggy start we all had a marvelous time, going on mini side quests, hanging out at the Auberge Tavern, winning a lottery for solars organized by the dwarves, drinking the night away and partying at Old Town etc. The best part of course was the main battle itself, as it was both intense, fun and exhilarating fighting shoulder to shoulder in a massive battlefield of 5000 people. The trip was definitely worth it and we hope to do so again real soon. Cheers!
Ah yes, TVN - sounds like you had a great experience with them! I know going that route is a great deal more expensive, but I know they do a lot to group people together and give options for how to make the most out of Bico. Yeah, the monsoons were bad - we were lucky in non-decorum, but I felt horrible for the Orcs... they had it BAD. I'm hoping to get my feet wet at the battle this year too, do some quests. So many things to explore! Thanks for commenting, I'm sure this year will be just as good!
@@ticklespark Well since we live in California, and being that this was both our very first larp event we've ever attended, we believe it was worth the extra money to have those who was already in the know do the majority of the "heavy lifting" for us. That way we could really enjoy ourselves without worrying or trying to figure things out, in short it was like hiring tourism company for a larp event LOL! And we absolutely do recommend that the next time you and your merry band attend Bicolline that you give the Grand Bataille a try, as I mentioned previously we found it both amazingly fun and an absolute thrill. Now that Viking group you mentioned in your video seems precisely like our kind of people, hopefully we will try to introduce ourselves the next time we attend. Cheers!
I know this video is almost a year old. But there is a guy that shows how to make an easy electric torch for larp. Its awesome how he makes it. He is here on UA-cam. I want to get into larp more but dont think I can.
Oh hell yeah, you'll have to let me know what to search for! That sounds awesome. And it's never too late to LARP more my friend, even if it's few and far inbetween to get the opportunity to do so. Hope you get the chance to do so soon!
Bico-curious, I love it haha! My pleasure, I hope it shed some light - I've seen many videos on it, but looking back at this one I realize it kinda talks differently about the whole thing. Hope you take the plunge, it's totally worth it!
UK LARPer here, Love hearing this because i can relate in so many ways to your experience. I've been LARPing since 2008 and still love it to this day. Don't do many big fest LARP's like Biccoline. But I can relate to most what you said. Welcome to our hobby and enjoy grow and thrive. It's helped me gain confidence and strength. LARP has helped me to grow I wish you all good memories and happy times in our hobby. WELCOME
Thank you so much, and YES to all of those things! It allows a different way to shine, and to be excited about the quirky things that are niche to find others that also appreciate them, so very excited to this introduction into a new community. Since 2008?? That's amazing! Do you tend to stick with your favourite LARPs, or try out different ones? What ones have stuck out to you? Thanks for your kind words :)
It's a tough thing to overcome, but this place and these friends have definitely helped me to overcome it. It really makes a difference who you have in your circle!
@@ticklesparkyes 💯 percent. I have a small group of friends that don’t judge me and I went to Dragon con this year with them and dressed up as a halfling which is way out of my comfort zone but they supported me and even got me to join in some hobbit dancing!
@@richierich1213 Oh that's awesome! I wish I could see your halfling outfit cause that sounds like a blast. But I'm glad you've found the right people to have in your corner :) Cheers to many more amazing experiences!
So stoked for you to find a place to be you! Seems like you had a magical time indeed! Tis been many a day since I went to a LARP gathering. So much fun and wow to the size of this one!! Epic! Thanks again for sharing :)
Thanks so much Shane :) It really was! Goodness yes, they weren't kidding when they said biggest LARP in North America... I'm not complaining. Appreciate the love, my friend!
there’s a long video that just came out about this festival and I started the process of going. It looks really really fun and I hear nothing but good things! Can’t wait to go!
@@ticklespark the first year is always a magical thing, its all new and shiny, the years after is when you really dig into the many layers of Bico, every guild has a story and its a great deal of fun to learn them.
Loved watching this! Got me so excited for the gb this year. It was cool to see my guild’s ritual in the video as well. I’m guild lead of the pelt so feel free to come stop by our building in old town this year! Would love to host you for a drink :)
Thank you so much :) Aaaah yes, loved that ritual! I had fully intended to come by more than once, but only stopped by one of the Pelt camps this year briefly in the early afternoon. I know you guys were spread out quite a bit. Next year I will definitely come by though, and we'll get a chance to get to know one another :) Hope you had an amazing time this past year!
Alicia, you are a great storyteller! Thank you for letting me spend an hour listening to your story. You are so cool! Like how you just sewed a reversible outfit or two, lol. I hate that I am late to your channel but am happy to have found it! Looking forward to your next post (about anything).
Ah, well I'm so glad you stopped by! And thank you for the kind words :) Hahah oh yes, sewing has become quite a fun hobby for me over the last couple of years, I'm deep in it now! Better late than never, and I'm more than happy you're here :)
Hi TickleSpark! 🙋🏻♀️🇺🇲 CA So happy for you! It's wonderful to discover a community that you resonate with! I've never been to a Ren Faire or LARP Event, but they sound like fun to me. Thank you for sharing! Hugs & Sparkles! 🫂❤️✨
Thank YOU Brenda for watching and taking the time :) It really was an amazing experience, and one I know will lead to many others. If you have any ren faires close to you, I'd highly recommend checking one out! They can be an absolute blast, and give you a space to just enjoy the childlike wonder of peoples' time, efforts, and hobbies, with completely no pressure. I've never heard anyone to have a bad experience at one! Thanks for the love :)
I loved watching this video. I can really identify with the feelings and emotions you expressed. Thanks for posting this. I hope to make it to Bicoline one day.
At 18:41 that's where I was camping that year my tent is in frame lol and again at 202:22 I really hate that hill I had to climb to go to my tent every time lol. The training at 34:53 was the TVN training with 3 of TVN's guilds in case you were curious. 36:47 yes it is indeed a mage tower I found a cool rock shaped legitimately like a couch there.
Hah, so many familiar things! Yes, I eventually figured out it was the TVN, but at the time, I was just stoked to see what was happening. Such a cool place
this is a beautiful story of yours. ive opften felt the same about my love for fantasy and role playing. my story prety much mirrors yours. and as an adult have had to learn same as you to live my life the way i want to and dive in and own myself. thanks for sharing your experience.
Thank you, and for sharing as well! I'm glad to not be alone in taking a while to find that thing I can be myself with. It's amazing how long it can take to "own yourself" as you aptly put it, doesn't it? I'm glad you've been able to find that too though :) Thanks for taking the time to watch!
It was my 1st year to in 1022 and for me it's hard to describe it when I talk to people. You describe how it feel so close, I love that. This year will be so much fun. Have fun to
@@ticklesparkDid you get to go this year ? Because of you I ended up deep diving in Bicolline . It’s on my bucket list . So thank you ! Keep posting videos . You have a knack for it . I especially enjoy your editing style (new audio playing before video transition) This coming from a , very brief , editor in LA
@@andrewhelmer6853 You bet! And will keep going for as many years as I possibly can from now on :) Well I'm happy to have contributed to your bucket list, hope you get to go sometime very soon! I know LA is not close by, but it's (in my humble opinion) VERY worth it. And oh my goodness, thank you so much my friend. I really appreciate your kind words :) I hope you come back again to see any upcoming videos!
@@SuperHurricane As far as I know, not too many. There are orcs and elves, I haven't seen a kobold though. One thing to keep in mind is you must have your face showing for regular characters, and the other restrictions are listed in their rules (I know there are a few restrictions in there around human-hybrids). I'd recommend checking out their website!
This video came up in the recommended, and what is the chance that i know the guy in the picture at @53:29. Must be the most random thing in my life to see Fahad in a random youtube video i clicked on, and this is a second time it happened too. lmaoo

Ah thank you so much! I have no idea how far away you may be, but it's so worth it. Hope you make it out some day!

I'm glad I was able to verbalize what so many others experienced themselves. Hope you enjoyed year two!! :)
@@ticklespark I enjoy year two and three. Is gone better with the years and with the game.
Hope you enjoyed your bicolline too

Thank YOU! :)
@@ticklesparkDid you get to go this year ?
Because of you I ended up deep diving in Bicolline . It’s on my bucket list . So thank you !
Keep posting videos . You have a knack for it . I especially enjoy your editing style (new audio playing before video transition)
This coming from a , very brief , editor in LA
@@andrewhelmer6853 You bet! And will keep going for as many years as I possibly can from now on :)
Well I'm happy to have contributed to your bucket list, hope you get to go sometime very soon! I know LA is not close by, but it's (in my humble opinion) VERY worth it.
And oh my goodness, thank you so much my friend. I really appreciate your kind words :) I hope you come back again to see any upcoming videos!
@@ticklespark I absolutely will . Hope life is treating you amazingly .
@@andrewhelmer6853 And you as well, friend :)
Thank you for sharing.
Well for better or for worse I want to try LARP now. Thanks?
Hehe, got him! 😅 If you give it a try, let me know what you think!
Are there any race limitations when going there?
Expand?
@@starstriker8985 Like orcs, elves, koboids, etc.
@@SuperHurricane As far as I know, not too many. There are orcs and elves, I haven't seen a kobold though. One thing to keep in mind is you must have your face showing for regular characters, and the other restrictions are listed in their rules (I know there are a few restrictions in there around human-hybrids). I'd recommend checking out their website!
youtube show me the cutest elven lady... NO! not so cute.
Oh goodness, thank you my friend :)
This video came up in the recommended, and what is the chance that i know the guy in the picture at @53:29. Must be the most random thing in my life to see Fahad in a random youtube video i clicked on, and this is a second time it happened too. lmaoo
Hahah Fahad's in the guild I'm in! Small world indeed
