The larp, Night terror, is an ensemble story about persons suffering from nightmares or night terror attacks and other persons that try to help by entering the nightmares. Together they struggle against the night terror, paying steeper and steeper prices to overcome it, but in the end, they will lose themselves to the dream.
It is an ensemble story in the sense that players will get to play several instances of the same core story, but with different characters and different backgrounds.
They play in groups of three; one person will be the dreamer, which is the person suffering from night terrors, another person will be the caretaker that tries to help the dreamer, and the third person will be the night terror, which is the physical embodiment of all that is horrible within the dream.
The larp will mostly be played as an exploration of a dreamscape where the players get to set a multitude of scenes of what happens in the dream. They will be short dreamlike sequences that may or may not have any relation to each other. It is a collaborative exercise where you the players will improvise and conjure up moments, sometimes based on images, sometimes just based on imagination.
