Getting Involved:

Are you looking to get involved in End Times beyond simply attending as a player? If so, check out the description of each volunteer position detailed below, along with application requirements, responsibilities and in-game compensation.

Any assistance that our community members can give to help us put on an amazing event for everyone is rewarded with Old-World Coin (OC), which is a great way to quickly advance your character(s), and can be spent at any EAO game (End Times, Fantasy Alive and Dormancy).

If you would like to volunteer for any of these positions, please contact an owner at owner@endtimeslarp.ca with a list of which position(s) you’d like to apply for any a brief description of your credentials/experience in the area (see below).

A huge pre-emptive thank you to all who apply. We put a vast amount of effort into our LARPS, but ultimately we can’t make them half of what they are without the support and commitment of our fabulous volunteers!

Plot Marshal:


Responsibilities:

While they hold the position, Plot Marshals attend events as a Cast role (cannot play a Player Character). At events, they work under the Head of Plot to help organize Cast and Dedicated Cast, preparing them for both planned and unplanned encounters, and red-lightning those mods when needed.  They may play several recurring townsfolk roles with more detailed backstories and abilities over the course of the events.  Between events, they work under the Head of Plot to help plan the stories of our game, from individual encounters to season-spanning plot lines.


Application Requirements:

Ideally available for the whole weekend of every event of the season. Should have a general understanding of the core rules and a reasonable familiarity with the setting. Experience as a member of a LARP plot team is preferred.


Compensation:
