The last and final edit of the entire Rendezvous Rules! book will be posted here once it is complete.

We have discovered the hardest part of creating a LARP is to come up with consistent, interlocking rules. In the beginning we came up with the story and then built our rules around that vision. In our never-ending attempt to create a fully immersive role-playing experience, we tried to make the rules as invisible as possible.

It is our goal to make a rules system that everyone can understand and minimize any breaking of character for rules questions.

Our first attempt at crafting a system went horribly awry, and the rulebook was well over 300 pages when we decided to stop and reevaluate. In the final edit, we were able to keep things down to a more manageable level, and it was decided that 2 separate books would be made available to you.

You may download the Rendezvous Rules and Travel Guide completely FOR FREE. You may print them off, give them to your friends as holiday or birthday presents, or to that special someone just to say "I care." We offer them to you FOR FREE as a way of saying thank you for taking an interest in our LARP. Our only request is that you refrain from marketing, selling or reproducing our rule system for profit.

Travel Guide

The travel guide is a completely in-play guide to the world of Rendezvous. Any player is free to use any information they find in their character history or during the game itself. The travel guide was created so you can build your character with a knowledge of what has been going on in the world, as if your character was really born there.

While there are some questions that must be found out in-play we feel that there are some things any person growing up in this world would know. It has a list of kingdoms, orders and groups, locations of interest and a commonly known history.
