THE TITHING

WELCOME TO THE ARENA

"In penance for their uprising, each Province shall offer up randomly selected citizens over the age of 18 at a public Harvest. 

​

These Tithes shall be delivered to the custody of the Metropole, and then transferred to a public arena where they will fight to the death until a lone Champion remains.

​

Henceforth and forever more, this pageant shall be known as The Tithing."

MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOUR

"The Tithing: Arena" is a 24hr time-in, PvPvE survival combat LARP inspired by The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

​

In the world of New Eden, horrific and brutal events take place. The game will include tension and suspense, and so we would advise potential players to make an informed decision as to whether this is the sort of game for them. We may not always have the chance to warn players of a sensitive or difficult topic and so, by attending the event, you accept that you may encounter some or all of the following content:

  • Gore

  • Murder

  • Poverty

  • Psychological fear

  • Jump scares

  • Simulated torture

  • Being hunted

  • The dark

  • Suspense

  • Loud noises

​

We will never include or condone use of the following elements:

​

  • Rape/sexual assault

  • Cruelty towards minors

  • Cruelty towards animals

  • Discrimination against skin colour, gender, sexuality, sex, religion or disability

​​

In Character discrimination may occur based on someone’s IC morals, beliefs, or prejudices, but these should arise from the circumstances of a character. If you feel you have been discriminated against in an Out Of Character fashion, please alert a member of the game team and we will deal with it immediately.*

​

GIVEN THE INTENSE AND UNRELENTING NATURE OF THIS GAME, THE TITHING IS AN 18+ EVENT.

​

 

*Thanks to Legendary LARP for the wording of these disclaimers.

ARE YOU COMING TO THE TREE?

"The Tithing: Storyline" is a series of three interlinked events forming one complete story, set in the world of New Eden around six months after the events of the 27th Annual Tithing Arena. This 3-part mini-series aims to explore life after death in a world where even your final rest is not your own, where the odds are never in your favour, and where your limits become the start line of your nightmares.

​

Much like The Tithing: Arena events, the world of New Eden throughout the planned storyline is a dark, bleak, and desperate one. The main theme is one of true psychological horror, exploring the darker sides of ordinary humanity and flexible morality against the backdrop of totalitarian control.

 

Your character represents the average citizen of New Eden – someone just trying to live their life as best they can, trapped in a situation over which they have no control, and forced into a situation in which they cannot possibly hope to survive.

 

The Storyline events are intended to feel difficult both IC and OC by design. The player base is not guaranteed to succeed, and the game itself is actively working against the you at all times. That being said, we firmly believe in rewarding player effort, and it is intended that player decisions during the Storyline Events will impact not only future Storylines, but also the Tithing Arenas. The world and its story will be shaped by the actions and decisions made throughout by you, the players.

​

In the Arena, we asked:

"What are you willing to do to survive?"

​

Now we ask:

"What are you willing to do to WIN?"

UPCOMING EVENTS:

WELCOME TO EDEN BIOTECH

WHEN: 20-22 SEPT 2024

WHERE: THE GAOL AIRSOFT, OAKHAM, LE15 7TU

HOW MUCH: TICKETS FROM £150

WHO: 18+ ONLY

​

"Welcome to: Eden BioTech" is the first of the three intended storyline events, exploring what happens to Tithes after the Arena cameras are switched off. The event will see Tithes from previous Arenas thrown deep into the depths of an unknown Eden BioTech facility with nothing but their wits and the knowledge that they truly have nothing left to lose.

 

Where are you? Where are the missing? Will you ever break free of the Metropole's clutches? There is no rest for the wicked, there is only Eden BioTech.

 

This is a high combat, heavy roleplay event with no regeneration, and character death within the storyline events will be final.

FUTURE EVENTS

This system will run until 2027:

2024 - 27th Arena & Welcome To: Eden BioTech

2025 - 28th Arena & Welcome To: The Warren

2026 - 29th Arena & Welcome To: The Outpost

2027 - The Epilogue​​
