Getting Started

Welcome to Vamptgard, a battlegaming LARP about supernatural creatures living in Dark Ages Europe. Familiarize yourself with rules here before playing. This is a "living" rulebook, that means there are no hard copy books in print. This digital rulebook is updated on the fly and rules are patched as needed. Once we get out of the beta test versions of this game, rule updates will be posted in a log for posterity.

The links on the left hand sidehamburger stack icon in the upper left corner will get you started. The player Guide gives you all the information you need to be a player, while the Appendices are compiled lists of Abilities and traits you'll need for your character. The first place you should check out is the characters section.

For now, we're leaning on the basic Amtgard combat rules, so if you see something that isn't written out here, assume the rule is the same as Amtgard. Any rule written here supercedes its Amtgard counterpart. As more rules are written, this will become more fleshed out and eventually no Amtgard rules will be used or implied.
