Underworld LARP is a live action role playing game based in Toronto, Ontario.

Underworld LARP is a medieval, fantasy / horror based game. It has no affiliation with the Underworld movie franchise. In its 15th season, it averages approximately 150 players at each event. Players meet once a month for most of the year. Outdoor events occur in late spring to late fall, and span full weekends running non-stop from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. In the winter season, single-day outdoor events, or indoor evening events are common.

Due to mature topics such as violence, gore, occult, sexuality and religion, Underworld LARP has an 18+ age limit. It's darker themes distinguish it from other live action role playing groups in its area. With a rich in-game history, mature player base and rules system, Underworld is one of the largest and most active boffer LARPs in Ontario.

Underworld LARP was established in 1994 by Edward Watt and Geoff Simpson, and has been one of the most popular and realistic role-playing games in Canada. After a small hiatus, Geoff left to pursue his artistic career. Filling Geoff’s position as Co-Owner is David Ashby. Over the last 4 years David and Edward have resurrected Underworld LARP from a small 25 player game to averaging 150 players per event. We expect that number to double by next season.

Underworld currently has three guilds: The head chapter (Jericho) is located in Toronto, Canada. The second chapter (Kalidor) is in Edmonton, Canada. Their newest chapter (New Haven) is located in Texas, USA.
