Q. What is Renegade Team Building?
​
A. The concept of introducing the general public to LARP through the creation of the unique High Fantasy Game World of Ralsted; with three separate LARP Campaigns set in three separate time periods. Admittedly, this project has become Karl Lechmere's obsession; which consumes his attention when he is not assisting people with their Locks in the Real World. Renegade Team Building has been created as a conventional LARP Game; as a means of introducing LARP to the general public as a Team Building product and as therapeutic benefit to those who need a healthy form of escapism.
Our Team
