General Rules

In this LARP, most interaction between players is not governed by rules. In order for your character to do something, you must do it. To comprehend Latin, you must know the language. To search through someone’s belt pouch, you must open it and look through the items inside. You move, speak, believe, perceive, feel and sleep as your character sees fit, provided that your character uses knowledge and supplies available in early thirteenth-century England.

However, the rules that follow will affect your ability to perform certain actions. Some actions are dangerous or impossible for people to perform, such as drinking another person’s blood or throwing lightning bolts. These actions will have rules on how to perform them if they are allowed in Shadow Accord.

As a side note, please be aware that this document was created by people who make mistakes, and these rules will be used by other people who make mistakes. You might find a bizarre loophole that allows you to do something completely absurd. We would ask that you point this out to the rules team and refrain from using the loophole. You might also run into a situation where a player makes a minor error in a situation where their powers or abilities would otherwise work fine (e.g. transposing two words in a sig call). We would ask that you roll

with the punches and do what is best for the story instead of rules lawyering. Above all, be a good sport, and understand that we all have to work together to make this game happen.
