Welcome to the Steppe Library.

The Steppe Library is a set resources owned and maintained on behalf of the Steppe Alliance. The Steppe Alliance is one of a number of factions that exist within the Curious Pastimes game world a UK based LARP system. This game world can be explored through use of an interactive map which is provided here. The library is primarily an in-character and in-game resource consisting of a collection of stories and other documents generated by players and for players. However, in order to enrich the experience of players between events and to ensure such lore is not lost through loss or damage, we have decided to capture some of the material in virtual form and present it on this website.

The material presented is a curated subset of the totality of the library and as new material is generated we will on a regular basis update and refine the material presented here. To provide a structured experience please follow the links below in order to access the material.

In order to explore the nations of the war-host, their peoples and stories associated with each nation then access via the world-map

In order to explore the variety of races within the game world and the history, culture and stories of each race then please explore via the culture page

Finally a set of resources are provided as to how the Curious Pastimes world works from the principles underpinning its cosmology, its various planes of existence beyond the world within which our characters exist and some primer material relating to the use of ritual, crafting and so forth. This material can be accessed through the knowledge page.

Finally if you wish to contact the admin of this page or submit a document for inclusion in the library then please access the contact page.
