'''Blood & Tears''' is a set of [[theatre-style]] larp rules for the ''Houses of the Blooded'' tabletop roleplaying game. It requires ''Houses of the Blooded'' to play.<br />
<br />
Character creation is done using the tabletop rules. The central mechanic is a [[bidding]] system, where characters offer each other style points for success. If an offer is refused, a character can ''insist'', turning the contest from an offer into a negative-sum auction; rather than being gifted to the loser, all style points used are lost. Character traits can provide extra style for specific contests, but require style to invoke.<br />
<br />
The game explicitly prohibits socially unapproved violence through an "attacker loses" system. However, characters can fight duels, and may gain style for doing so.<br />
