Rules and play

• contains the game outline

A freeform is a variant of Live Action Role-playing (LARP) with no physical contact.

Coombe Hill is a very short game, only 2 hours long. A more typical freeform or LARP would last a minimum of 4 hours, more typically 6-10. The main goal for this game is as an icebreaker for the convention.

This game uses a cut-down set of Ars Magica 5 rules, specifically adapted for live play without dice. You can download the rules here but you do not need to read or learn these rules unless you are a storyguide (or love roleplaying game details).

Note that powerful magic costs vis in the cut-down rule for this freeform
