Meet Paul, the king of costume and creator of chaos! He was bursting with pride as he shared me with tales of his LARP (Live Action Role Play) adventures. That's right, folks—Paul's been a Dungeons and Dragons devotee for three magical years! I had to ask a few questions to catch up on his mystical musings.

 

Every Saturday, from noon to the stroke of midnight, this crew gathers in the enchanted lands of Watford, with anywhere from 15 to 45 fantasy fanatics. It's a full-blown, costume-clad, don't-you-dare-break-character extravaganza. Paul proudly plays a 

“Dim-witted Troll," a role he crafted with thrift store treasures. His character might be “dim-witted” but Paul's enthusiasm is anything but!

 

He also shared tales of "Tiberius," a tavern keeper who moonlights as "Arturo" when the mood strikes. Curious adventurers can join the fun through their Facebook group, MMA (Mixed Medieval Arts), where they post epic videos and snapshots of their quests.

 

Paul ended our chat with a flourish, showing off some mind-blowing pictures and bragging about his appearance at the Pop Culture Show, where they made paper. Paul's passion for fantasy is as vibrant as his costumes!
