MYSTWOOD:
​THE CHRONICLES OF NOVGOROND
​A WINTER LARP, Harrison Maine

The newest Mystwood Chapter, Mystwood: Novgorond is an expansion of the Mystwood world and will be played at the Burgundar LARP Site. Novgorond historically, was an influential Russian city state that often competed for power with Kiev. In the Mystwood world, some of its history has been included, and some has been embellished and changed. The players of Novgorond will be camped out a short distance away from The Wall that separates the civilized world from Thule and the Chaos Wastes. Defenders come from all over Europa to place their name on the “Roll of Defenders” and protect the Wall.

​he Chronicles of Novgorond is run jointly by veteran Mystwood players Ty Guerin and Zach Plugge.​
​Novgorond Events are hosted at: 

Burgundar LARP Site
45 Upton Road
​Harrison ME 04040

Ty Guerin
Ty began his LARPing career in the Fall of 2011 with the initial Mystwood Playtest. His character started out as a humble Squire of few words but eventually his actions were recognized and he became the first player Knight of the Realm in the game of Mystwood. Since Ty’s beginnings at LARP, he has become an integral part of the Maine LARP community. Ty is always willing to lend a helping hand and has attended more work days and volunteered more of his time than almost any other. 

Being the Co-GM of Mystwood: The Chronicles of Novgorond, Ty is eager to test the limits of “Extreme” Live Action Roleplaying by bringing LARP into the dead of winter. Novgorond will have a much different feel than the original Mystwood Chapter- not only will it be colder, but also more heavily laden with brutal combat, intrigue, commerce and conflict. 

Zach Plugge
Zach is Mystwood's youngest game master, but he's been LARPing longer than many, and has literally grown up in the world of Mystwood. He began his adventure as a young squire of Justice in service to Sir Ibby. His pursuit of knowledge has gotten him into trouble on more than one occasion but he sticks by his principles and always seeks to improve. He has since been knighted by the green knight and is known to all the land as Sir Lanthar. Not only has Zach been part of Mystwood's game world, but he has also been a contributing part of the community. His efforts have seen the mines at the Maine Adventure Society site in Jefferson more than double in size, and he was instrumental in the construction of the new Gate House. 

As a Co-GM of Mystwood: The Chronicles of Novgorond Zach is ready to push the limits of LARP. He has many ambitious ideas for Novgorond including improving the iconic wall fight. His knowledge of winter camping and winter safety will prove invaluable as he and his good friend Ty attempt to do something never before achieved in the Maine LARP scene.
