The Core Team

A bit more about us!

Hollie

Founder and creator of ERDA, Hollie has been larping and helping organise LARPs since 2013. She started her own system in 2015 and Erda's been running ever since!

 

With a BA(hons) In Games Design, Hollie is passionate about bringing you the best game experience she can deliver.

Hollie is responsible for everything ERDA. She manages most of the functions of  the system; from the rules to bookings, plot and world building to costume and set design. What she doesn't do, she delegates to the rest of her amazing core team.

She likes her tea strong, with milk and a single sugar.
