| | Dragon Crest - A live action role playing game. |
| | Role playing games are games in which the players basically develop a character persona (much as an author develops characters for a book or story) and act it out. | | | By playing this game, or by consenting for your child to play it, you risk these kinds of injuries, just as you would in any other sporting or camping activity. | | | This is facilitated by someone who is in charge (often referred to as the game master or the storyteller) developing the plot line and presenting the players with situations where they can act out their roles. |

| | Unlike tabletop role-playing games that are organized by one storyteller, live action role-playing games involve a cast of many players who help to bring the story to life. | | | Each player is required to memorize the rules that his or her character uses during the game. | | | As with any LARP game, there are an infinite number of ways to cheat at Magestry and maybe some loopholes in the rules. |

| | Live action - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In role-playing games, live-action refers to games in which the players physically act out their characters, as if in a theater production, as opposed to sitting around a table and simply describing the actions their characters take. | | | See Live action role-playing game for more details. | | | It is an important distinction, however, in situations where one might normally expect animation, as in a Disney movie, a video game, or when the work is adapted from an animated cartoon, such as the Flintstones or Josie and the Pussycats movies, or The Tick television show. |
