Forgotten Dreams Design-studio (FDDs) was a German manufacturer of LARP weapons, shields and set-pieces. The company was founded in 2001 and closed at the end of 2019. Their weapons have been soft and light, well-suited for junior players. The weapon core has often been on the thin side, so longer weapons would have increased flexibility, to the point of making it hard to utilise - see our review of their quarterstaff.

Their swords and shields have been loved by many players throughout the years, and they've had long durability. If you can find a used sword or shield of their make, it may very well be worth purchasing.
