Masks have traditionally been used in a number of different ritual and theatric forms. In larp, masks can be used as a simple but powerful part of a costume - or as an integral part of the game design.

  • Persona (2005) - Danish convention larp that premiered at Fastaval 2005, which used masks as diegetic tool in a utopian setting where the characters played archetypical members of society.
