Fantasy Warplay is a form of Live Action Role Playing developed over many years of playing and testing out safe and effective ways to simulate sword play. It grew out of playing in the woods of Mendocino County, CA in association with the Melville Montessori School and was influenced largely by Arduin, Magic the Gathering, dramatic play, and later NERO.

To learn about the game and how it is played, start with the New Players Page and then check out the Online Rulebooks under Resources above.
