Children at Events

There MAY BE a children's area where children below the age of twelve can gather and play. Volunteers and resources permitting, there will be a trusted and safe adult who will be leading activities and play. If possible one parent or guardian is required to stay with the child, or nearby, in the children's area.

Children under the age of twelve may not participate in combat activities. Some exceptions can be made if the parent or guardian contacts administration to make arrangements before the event and all safety concerns are resolved. Children between the age of twelve to sixteen can only quest and participate in combat activities, if they are accompanied by a parent or guardian and have written permission on file.

This decision is made at the discretion of the local Guards, Loremasters, and administration and may be adjusted on a case by case basis.

A child under the age of twelve may never take part in mass battles or team battles no matter the case. Children under the age of twelve years old may participate in Goblin Ball, and similar activities, as long as it is a grouping focused on the children and would only allow pre-approved adults that would be there solely to help with the game flow.

To Summarize:  

• Children's Area Guidelines: A dedicated play area for children under twelve may be available, led by a safe adult volunteer if resources permit, and ideally requiring at least one parent or guardian to stay nearby.  

  
  

• Combat Restrictions for Under-12s: Children under twelve are strictly prohibited from participating in combat activities or mass/team battles under any circumstances.  

  
  

• Exceptions for Under-12s: Combat exceptions can be made for children under twelve only if a parent or guardian makes prior arrangements with administration and all safety concerns are resolved.  

  
  

• Special Activities for Under-12s: Children under twelve may participate in child-focused activities like Goblin Ball, provided only pre-approved adults are present to help with game flow.  

  
  

• Rules for Ages 12 to 16: Children between twelve and sixteen years old may participate in quests and combat activities only if they have written permission on file and are accompanied by a parent or guardian.  

  
  

• Discretion and Authority: All decisions regarding children's participation are made at the discretion of local Guards, Loremasters, and administration on a case-by-case basis.
