    Simbelmyne is a swedish larp set in Tolkiens Middle-Earth, around 500 years before the War of the Ring. The organisers describes it as such:

    “Good and evil have not changed since yesteryear, nor are they one thing among Elves and another among Men. It is a man’s part to discern them, as much in the Golden Wood as in his own house.”
    — JRR Tolkien, The Two Towers

    Simbelmyne is a larp about good and evil – not the goodness of heroic deeds or the evil of dark lords, but the goodness of a kind act or the evil of greed, selfishness or small mindedness. Fictionally Simbelmyne takes place among the Éothéod, the ancestors of the Rohirrim, as they gather to elect a new thegn, a chieftain of sorts, as the old one has passed away – and to tell tales, share news from all corners of the Mark and to eat, drink and honour the ancestors.
