a Sci-fi Drama
Eclipse – A New Home is a great larp production inspired by the classics of the Sci-Fi Drama genre. It is a unique event that takes place in a simply incredible location: an immersive set for major sci-fi film productions. A planetary space base reconstructed to the smallest detail. It is a story about humanity and its limits, about differences among people, about hope, love and fears.
You will play the role of a member of the Eclipse 7 mission, a scout or an exobiologist, a diplomat or a communicator, a scientist or a soldier engaged in a quest on which the fate of humanity will depend. It is the story of a group of explorers who will have a singular encounter that will change them forever and confront them with their fears, hopes and contradictions.
A fully immersive experience in which each character can make a difference. For those who really want to dream big.
All pictures are of the real game location (some have small edits).

Eclipse 7 Planetary Station
Sol 46 /// 6 July 2059
This planet seems perfect for human life. Lush, fertile, welcoming and radiation can be easily kept under control with standard suits. All the data we have collected on habitability confirms that it is an excellent candidate to host human life. Yet I can’t shake this strange feeling, as if someone or something is watching us…
Maybe it’s just homesickness. Juno is growing up, soon to be out of school. Time is relentless here. News from Earth seems so distant… There has been a new Eclipse, worse than all the previous ones. Many people died, but the family is fine. I was scared.
I must not let go. Soon we will begin the last phase of the mission and if everything goes well, then Juno will have a new home. I’ll be able to embrace her again. It’s for her that I’m doing this. It’s always been for her.
location
A one-of-a-kind location, simply perfect and iconic. Thirteen gigantic domes connected by glass and plexiglass passages. A venue built as an immersive set for major sci-fi film productions. Set up down to the last detail like a real space station with a total area of 18,000 square metres.
Fingerprint-activated pneumatic doors, terminals, hundreds of realistic working scenographies. Everything is taken care of in every aspect to offer all the fascination that a planetary space station should have. The location is immersed in a majestic forest that will be part of the playing area.
What’s more, the location is very easy to reach. It is located very close to Krakow, Poland and can be reached in a short time from the airport (there will also be our transfer available!).
LOG #645-B52
…night has fallen, covering the sky with stars. The alien planet seems to be sleeping. You are checking your suit before heading out with your team for an exploration outside.
Everyone in the station is hard at work; scientists are studying the latest data from the probes, exolinguists are working feverishly on a signal picked up a few hours ago, while Control prepares communications and sets the next objectives.
Suddenly the pneumatic sound of the hatch brings you back to reality. The forest stretches for kilometres in front of you. A shiver runs down your spine. It must be weariness, you tell yourself. You turn to the horizon and start walking…
setting
ON THE BRINK OF EXTINCTION
Starting in 2025, as a consequence of the impact of human activities on planet Earth, adverse climatic events of frightening dimensions began to occur. We called them Eclipses. During these events, a cloud of dark dust would rise up to cover entire continents, darkening them for weeks under a blanket in which life became extremely difficult.
Scientists realised that these cataclysms marked a point of no return for our ecosystem. According to their predictions, within a few decades, Earth would no longer be inhabitable. Suddenly, the evidence of the end hit us with the force of a sledgehammer. Humankind was on the brink of extinction.
But it is in the darkest moments that the light shines the brightest. Nations collaborated to found the Eclipse Space Programme to locate new habitable worlds, with the aim of migrating Earth’s population before it was too late. Thanks to their joint efforts, space travel technology took a giant leap forward. We learned to control the Einstein-Rosen bridges and use them as “portals” to unreachable parts of the galaxy. But without knowing where to search, even these portals were useless.
In 2055, thousands of probes were sent into the galaxy. After months of agonising silence, they identified seven potentially habitable planets. Now, hopes were pinned on the last phase of the Eclipse Space Programme: the missions to the alien planets.
It is the year 2059. Technology and society are the same as in 2024. We use the same phones and computers and inhabit the same nations. But it is the day when the Eclipse missions leave Earth, each heading to one of the seven planets in the hope of finding a new Earth. It is the day when humanity holds its breath and turns its eyes to the stars.

…in 2059 the members of the Eclipse 7 mission establish a base on an alien planet at the edge of the galaxy to see if it is suitable to host our civilisation. But they are not alone…
…a true adventure in a space station where humanity plays its last chance.
…cinema-level set design with realistic, working props, an incredible location: a “real” space station.
…your job, your ambitions, your secrets, your life, in the space station Eclipse 7.

Sol 109 /// 7 September 2059
The signals are real. There is clearly a life form on this planet that is trying to communicate with us. Even if we cannot understand it as yet. Any pathway at the moment is precluded, I feel like being blocked outside of a house with no doors.
We are limited. We are so used to thinking with our own mental schemes that it is almost impossible for us to understand radically different languages. What if we have always misunderstood life and intelligence? What if we need a new paradigm?

Amiche e amici delle Accademie Eclipse di tutto il mondo, ci sono dei momenti nella storia dell’umanità in cui si delinea chiaramente un bivio dopo il quale niente sarà più lo stesso. È qui che ci troviamo in questo momento. Con un piede sulle nostre astronavi e un altro ancora sul pianeta su cui siamo nati: la Terra.
Questo piccolo punto blu che non abbiamo saputo salvare da noi stessi. Che ameremo sempre, ma che dobbiamo abbandonare. Ogni speranza adesso è rivolta a voi cadetti. Siete come gli argonauti, persone coraggiose pronte a sacrificare ogni cosa per il bene della nostra civiltà. Nessuno sa cosa vi aspetta, perché vi state spingendo dove nessuno è mai stato. Oltre i limiti che i nostri padri sognavano.
Siamo nelle vostre mani. Le vostre famiglie, i vostri amici, tutti, dai presidenti delle nazioni fino alla persona più sola e derelitta in un sobborgo dimenticato, ora stanno pensando a voi. Si affidano a voi. Per aspera ad astra!
Non andartene docile in quella buona notte,
I vecchi dovrebbero bruciare e delirare al serrarsi del giorno;
Infuria, infuria, contro il morire della luce.
design
NEW GENERATION DESIGN
Eclipse is a larp that uses narrative techniques designed to create a unique experience that will allow you to explore the feelings of each character and give their inner worlds a chance to be told, together with their past and the lives of the people they left on Earth. Eclipse is a sci-fi drama in which the emotions of the characters are central. What will happen to the loved ones left on Earth? How far can we venture to survive? Who is really the human being?
narrative design
The tree-like narrative structure we’ve designed for this event leaves it up to the explorers’ decisions to change the entire course of events. Each Eclipse mission will have its own unique story and the lives of people on Earth and in the Space Station will change. The gaming experience will also be different depending on the paths you take.
themes
We wish to tell the story of humanity fleeing from a planet earth destroyed by uncontrolled exploitation of resources.
What are we willing to sacrifice for the people we love? How do we relate to our ecosystem and what inhabits it?
Eclipse – A New Home is also a way of reflecting on our reality, our relationships with the important people in our lives, our ecosystem, what is different from us and how we can act for the better.

THEY SAY ABOUT US
These guys know their stuff! Can absolutely recommend Chaos League. Pre-game and in-game support is top-level. The game (at least Sahara Expedition) is an experience you would not believe possible. Looking forward to playing more with them in the future.
Guy-Roger Duvert
An awesome team of talented, passionate and nice people. I definately had my best LARP experience at Miskatonic University. It’s immersive, well written, full of emotions and the safety is on point. I would 100% recommand and trust them again for other LARP adventures!
Louise Ougier
Chaos League’s games are finely crafted down to the smallest detail – you’re all but guaranteed an amazing experience.
János Márkus
I had a lovely experience with Chaos League during the Sahara Expedition Larp. I was fully immersed from start to finish and felt as if I was living a grand adventure. The attention to detail in the story was phenomenal and you could tell that the experience was crafted with love. Highly experience Chaos League after this Larp
Tiana Hahn
Incredible dedication and creative energies, heavy subjects treated with sensitivity and attention to players. If you want to have your mind blown, your heart torn in two and have great fun in the process, go play their larps!
Ürmössy Zsuzsanna
I higlhly reccomend Chaos League as a larp creators – there is a safe space, there is a support from the staff from start to the end. At no point I did not feel lost or left alone. Thank you for that great experience – I want more 😃

experience
Eclipse narrates life on the planetary station Eclipse 7. A crucial mission for humanity in search of a new Earth to inhabit.
It is the story of a group of people who will have a singular encounter that will change them forever and confront them with their fears, hopes and contradictions. It is a story about humanity, courage and the mystery of existence; the story of an epic quest, inside and outside ourselves.
We believe in the creative and expressive potential of people. That is why we have designed this game with great care, chiselling it to offer you an experience that will move you, making you the author of an original and shared narrative, powerful and special.
You will live the life of a real space station: scientists, politicians, military, artists, explorers, adventurers and many others. Exploratory missions, mysterious discoveries, unexpected adversities, dangers to face will shape your day during the mission to the alien planet. Friendships destined to last a lifetime, bitter rivalries, loves and profound revelations await you in Eclipse Station 7.
