30th September to 2th October (2023)
Cartiera di Vas, Belluno (Italy)
Crowfounding: For each registration with a Patron ticket (Legend), a new Reduced ticket (Sprawler) will be available. That means that thanks to your generosity, a larper will be able to join with a reduced ticket!
Confirming your registration for the event is very simple:
Once payment is made, your registration will be confirmed!
Note: if you wish, you can defer the payment in 3 convenient tranches.
We also remind you that in order to participate in Proxima’s events you must be a member and pay the annual fee of 10 €. Proxima is a regularly registered Association, and becoming a member of Proxima will allow you to become an integral part of our world, participate in our initiatives and our events and be covered by a liability insurance, included in the card, that will allow you to enjoy our events with serenity.
Cyberpunk is an all-inclusive event. Ticket includes:
If CYBERPUNK will be your dream event, it would happen thanks to your support, too.
Actually, if you choose to buy a Legend ticket, you will contribute to make the aesthetic, technical and scenic system even more spectacular.
In addition, you will give us the opportunity to offer more reduced tickets, thus giving the opportunity to more people to attend the event: the more we are, the more we have fun.
To thank you for your support, we have reserved some surprises for you.
If you choose the Legend ticket, you will have much more chances to get the character you want. The assignment algorithm, in fact, will give a different weight to your choices, compared to those of other players.
Moreover, you will have a direct communication channel with the Staff, who will be ready to suggest you the character more in line with your desires and with the kind of experience you want to live!
There will be a common open area dedicated to sleep and rest, separated by the game area. You’ll be able to go there whenever you prefer. The area is sheltered from rain.
You can rent an inflatable mattress for the cost of 20€ – or you can bring your own.
The sleep area cannot be heated. Usually the minimum temperature for the period and the region is between 10° and 15°. You can rent a sleeping bag for the cost of 30€ – or you can bring your own.
All players will sleep together. If you’d like some privacy, you can rent a 2-person tent (for the cost of 70€) or a 4-person tent (for the cost of 130€). You can share the tent you reserve with other players. Alternatively, you can bring your own tent.
Please note: we will donate all sleeping rented materials at the end of the larp.
After 24:00 you can expect the game intensity to be significantly reduced. You can still play if you want, but don’t expect animation or other things from the staff.
You can expect the game intensity to start again in the morning around 10:00.
There will be a shower container with 4 showers, with hot water. There will be an app to reserve a shower timeslot.
The usual maximum temperature (for the period and the location) is between 20° and 25°. The minimum is between 10° and 15°. We suggest you prepare a costume with layers, that you can put on or off depending on the hour of the day.
The meals included are from lunch of Saturday (30th September) to lunch of Monday (2th October). They will be provided in-game. There will be a menu of options from which to choose from. There will be veg and vegetarian options, as well options compatible with the most common allergies.
Unfortunately, we are not able to provide celiac options. Please contact us if you have this need.
A bus shuttle will be available from Verona. It will make two stops, one at the closest airport (VRN – Valerio Catullo), and one in the city center. You can reserve it during signup at the cost of 30€.
Outward trip: You can choose to join one of the two outward shuttle; one leaving from Verona on Friday (29th September) around 21:00, and the other leaving on Saturday (30th September) around 12:00 (noon).
Return trip: You can choose to join one of the two return shuttle; one that will come back to Verona on Monday (2th October) around 16:00, and the other coming back to Verona on Tuesday (3th October) around 12:00 (noon).
We will update the precise timetables in the following months.
Alternatively, you can reach the location by car. In this case, you can also arrive on the evening of Friday (29th September) or leave on Tuesday (3th October).
We will present the character’s concepts (teasers), and you’ll be able to express a preference on the ones you’d like to play.
Players with Legend and Samurai will have the chance to book a meeting directly with the plot writing team, to receive personalized suggestions of the preferences to input.
We will assign the characters with an algorithm that will strive to satisfy everyone – giving priority to the tickets “Legend”.
You will receive a character sheet less than two months before the larp. Our plot writing team will design all the plots and relationships of your character.
You can sell or donate the ticket to another player. In this case, please let us know of your arrangements as soon as you can.
Note that the help we can provide you in finding a replacement player is limited – please don’t expect us to do it for you.
Additionally: the casted characters are not attached to tickets. Once a registration is cancelled, all rights to the assigned character will be lost. We’ll work with you to find a suitable solution, but don’t expect to “sell” a character.
All scenes are opt-in and there will be no in-game consequences for not playing a scene. If you have further questions on accessibility, please contact us.
Limited mobility: The location has many stairs, and it is not wheelchair accessible. We can arrange special conditions for your characters (f.e. a powerful Corp that finds hideous to go down in the Sprawl), but we can’t guarantee you’ll be able to explore all game areas.
Other than that, there is no need to have a good athletic condition to play the larp – however we discourage players with limited mobility or prone to get easily fatigued to choose the RONIN playstyle, being the only one that will require a certain degree of physical strain to be played fully.
Limited hearing: Many in-game information are provided by Tracks, digital audio recording to be listened to on your own smartphone. If you have trouble understanding one of those, we’ll provide you with a text translation.
Limited vision: The game features a game app, to be used on your smartphone. We had players in the past that managed to use it with their own smartphone app for impaired vision. Please contact us to check if it works also for you.
The Vas paper mill is a complex of industrial archaeology of great cultural and aesthetic interest. Starting from the mid-seventeenth century, it was one of the largest and most important paper mills in northern Italy with products exported throughout the Mediterranean, from Spain to the Turkish Ottoman Empire.
Thanks to a team of set designers and SFX artists, the structure will be set up in style, until it becomes the beating heart of Sprawl. Disco, corporate laboratories, fight cages and mysterious ruins are just some of the features present in the game area. We will give life to a 360° illusion.
