LARP (live-action roleplaying)

For those wanting to experience Heirs to Olympia beyond the confines of the gaming table, the Heirs to Olympia Core Rulebook offers guidelines for running and playing in live-action adventures. Best of all, there are no new rules to learn, as the tabletop game system for Heirs to Olympia applies equally well to Larp!

Larp offers gamers a chance to dress up in costume and really become their characters. Furthermore, it allows the GM to make use of real-world settings and ambiance. Its immersiveness makes it easier for players to stay in character and can be much more exciting and suspenseful than a tabletop game. One of the chief disadvantages of Larp, however, is the amount of preparation required by both players and GM to create an enjoyable game.
