Underworld

Underworld is a fantasy live-combat larp franchise in Canada. It has 9 chapters (or "guildhouses") in Canada and one in Japan.

Rules

Underworld uses a race, class and level system, with characters gaining skills and body points as they increase in level. Combat uses live-combat with boffer weapons. Magic is handled by spell packets and verbal calls. The rules also allow limited physical contact in combat (grabbing, shield bashing, wrestling) with consenting players, with a coloured armband marking consent.[1]
