'''Claus Raasted''' (b. June 19, 1979), sometimes known as the "king of Danish kid's larp," serves as the editor-in-chief of Denmark's roleplaying magazine ROLLE|SPIL and has created, run, and organized numerous larps. He was the news editor of [[Playground Magazine]], has been the Chairman of [[Rollespilsfabrikken]] (The Roleplaying Factory) in Copenhagen since 2005, and runs a company (Rollespilsakademiet) that provides larps to schools, libraries, companies, labor unions, churches and everything in between. Rollespilsakademiet has existed since 2006. Claus has been a contributor of talks to the Knutpunkt confernce since 2002.
In 2012 he gave one of the [[Nordic Larp Talks]], titled "Larpification," about how organizers should simply use the word "larp" rather than other vaguer terms such as "interactive theater", "indrama" or other such terms.
Claus is originally from Roskilde, Denmark, but spent three years in Seattle, USA from 1984 - 1987 during his childhood. After returning to Denmark, his parents gave him the Red Box (Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set) in 1987. Larpwise he started out at Gastars Weekend VI in january 1993, and has been active as a player since then and as an organizer since 1995.
In 2004 - 2005 Claus was part of the reality TV football team "FC Zulu"(int. FC Nerds), where he served as team captain for two years.
In 2009 he married Marie Louise Flindt Herløvsen, and added "Herløvsen" to his official name, though he still goes by 'Claus Raasted'.
