Minerite

M3 LARP Admin — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 04:19:27 +0000

Descendents of the Earth Element, Minerites are the most durable of all the races. Their appearance often resembles that of minerals such as iron or quartz but equally as common are those with the appearance of pure metallics such as copper, silver or gold. This is sometimes as simple as golden hair but some Minerites have their entire skin look like a mineral. Minerites are short in stature, usually reaching no more than 1.5 meters tall.

Racial Cultural Differences

The core manuals will not contain cultural dictations for the different races. Since the M3 Universe is separated into planets, each chapter will be assigned a planet and will be allowed to come up with their own culturally significant aspects to the races. A couple reasons went into this decision:

This makes for a better variety of gameplay especially when visiting different chapters.
Each chapter isn’t required to know cultural significance of a visiting player.
Any potential chapter cultural rules are known from the beginning not to automatically transfer between chapters.

We hope this leads to better cross-chapter play and better roleplay for all.

Human

M3 LARP Admin — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 21:34:01 +0000

The most versatile and abundant race in the Universe, Humans have been seen on every known planet. Human disciplines range from the greatest fighters to the most powerful sorcerers. They are the great kings of old to the squires of yesterday. Broad in physical features, Humans range in height from a meter to under 3 meters. They have many different colors of skin, hair, and eyes including blue, brown, red, black, green, or a combination of all. There are few things Humans cannot do, and they pride themselves in this.

Design Note:
A decision was made not to separate out races such as Dwarfs, Gnomes, & Halflings as there were enough technical game play differences with the other races. Players wishing the flavor of these races are more than welcome to partake in the “broad physical features” of the humans and give themselves a bushy beard, bulbous nose or hairy feet.

Basic Composition of the Universe

M3 LARP Admin — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 21:02:28 +0000

The universe is an infinite void with pockets of existence scattered around called planets. It roughly approximates the universe the players live in. These pockets form into large collections called galaxies and into smaller collections called solar systems. Most often, these systems are centered by a single star. In order to play in such a universe, you must know what makes up these pockets of existence. There are three parts to these pockets, the Elements which make the physical aspect, the Forces which give it action, and the Arrangements which give how the Elements and Forces are organized.
