Words of the Middle Ages in Larp

There are some words that were coined in the Middle Ages or already in antiquity and are therefore somehow connected with the atmosphere of the Middle Ages. On this page you will find an overview of terms that we think are worth explaining to better understand the Middle Ages, because they are special, have something to do with live roleplaying or we simply think they are interesting.

We don’t want to imitate an encyclopaedia, but rather briefly outline what the word describes and how it can sometimes appear in a Larp context. The aim is to show some interesting topics and to make the field of the Middle Ages & Larp more tangible for beginners. For some terms we even have whole categories with products that fit the topic, because Andracor is an online shop that also sells medieval equipment for Larp.
