Welcome
to the 2004 Larplist.com Awards, also known as the "Shadies". The
Shadies will showcase the best that various LARP groups around the world have
worked on during the past year. I am very excited about this new venue and
hope that success of this event will spur even more innovation and
promotion of Live Action Role Playing.
Thanks to all
participants for making this year\'s awards a success. Congratulations to all
the winners.

Ayala (Kristof)
Game: Equinox
in Sparta, NJ
Captions: Warpreacher strikes a pose before
striking his enemies. The face prosthetic I use comes blank. I
airbrush the piece and apply make up around my eyes, mouth and the full of
my neck. When done right, the process takes about 45 minutes to an
hour. But the process is well worth it.
I also wanted to let everyone know who
might want a mask like mine, you can find them at http://www.lyonshel.com

Creatures and Monsters

Caption: This
Stone Golem was constructed using about 5 foam mattresses, over
50 sticks of hot melt glue, and 8 cans of grey and black spray paint.
The foam is glued in large thick sheets (approx 20cm thick) to
a fabric bodysuit, and the deep cracks are carved into the foam
surface. The bodysuit has a zip up the back to allow the wearer to enter
it, and the zip is concealed by abutting foam. The soles of the feet
are made of corflute that has been sliced in half to expose corrugations
that act as grip. The arms are about twice the length of the wearer\'s arms,
and act as swinging weapons made entirely of soft foam. The golem took
about 100 hours of work to construct, between 3 people. On its first
appearance, the Stone Golem sent twenty bold adventurers into a hasty
retreat without so much as touching them. See a video of the golem in
action at http://www.mordavia.com/golem.avi.

This animated, interactive prop was the key item in a far future Cthulhu
Live! event. Completed with flashing lights, internal smoke generator, and
pulsing heartbeat, this little puppy gave some players a real good fright.

and I\'m sure you\'ll agree, only, choice for the Shadie in the category
of Larp Dude. Bestowing this award on this god amongst men will only
serve to greater glorify the Shadies. Daahaar!!!
