==Calls==
== OC Calls ==
{{gloss|OC}} calls are used to tell the players (not the characters) what is going on, and in cases of emergency.

==== STOP THE GAME/MAN DOWN ====
The most important call in LARP. STOP THE GAME means there has been an real-life injury, someone has lost their glasses or there has been another {{gloss|OC}} emergency. Anyone may call STOP THE GAME and should do so if needed. As soon as STOP THE GAME is called, the action suspends entirely, everyone should stop moving, and appropriate action is taken. Repeat the call to anyone who has not noticed. Once the emergency is over, if the game is to continue then people are asked to return to where they were when STOP THE GAME was called and TIME IN restarts the action.

==== TOO HARD ====
Call this if you've been hit too hard by somebody.

==== TIME IN ====
The call to start roleplaying. Once TIME IN is called, the game has started. This may only be called by a Ref.

==== TIME OUT ====
The call to stop roleplaying. Once TIME OUT is called, the game is over for that evening. This may only be called by a Ref.

==== TIME FAFF ====
The call to continue roleplaying, but not move forward. On linears, occasionally additional time is needed to get a big encounter ready; in this case, TIME FAFF will be called and the party will spontaneously stop for a quick {{gloss|IC}} break. This may only be called by a Ref.

==== TIME FREEZE ====
This is close to a system call in its application. Upon hearing TIME FREEZE, all players should remain motionless, close their eyes and hum loudly so as not to hear what is going on.

== IC Calls ==
These tell you what your character needs to do. Combat calls will either be made when someone hits you, by describing a target and pointing at them, or attached to a MASS or WIDE call.

==== <TARGET> <CALL> ====
For example “You in the red hat! {{call|MAGIC}} {{call|TRIPLE}}!” or “Dave! {{call|KNOCKBACK}}!”. The target takes the given effect. Maximum range 10m.

====MASS====
Affects anyone within a 3m-long cone. Delineate an area of effect with your arms. If you aim upwards,it will hit everyone in a 3m radius.

====WIDE====
Affects anyone within a 10m radius. In the {{gloss|interactive}}, this hits everyone in the venue.

====REFRESH====
Regain all your {{gloss|stamina}}. Usually feels {{gloss|IC}} like a wave of power spreads through the {{gloss|interactive}} venue, or the {{gloss|Linear}} site.

==== NOTHING ====
Ignore the melee blow that accompanies this for mechanical purposes. It does no damage.

==== SINGLE ====
Lose one {{gloss|hit}}. Does not need to be called, it is implied by melee blow.

==== TRIPLE ====
Lose 3 {{gloss|hits}}.

==== MAGIC ====
In general, MAGIC has no additional effect. Against certain creatures, a MAGIC call will reduce or destroy their ability to call {{call|RESIST}} to blows.

==== ENTANGLE ====
You must not move your feet except for safety reasons for 10 seconds. You are unaffected by {{call|KNOCKBACK}} during this time. Call {{call|RESIST}} to it.

==== DISRUPT ====
You cannot participate in Rituals, make {{gloss|strikes}} or cast {{gloss|spells}} other than {{call|BREAK}} for the next 10 seconds, You lose any {{gloss|spell}} you were in the process of casting.

==== CRUSH ====
If this hits a limb, you cannot use that limb effectively. If it hits your torso and you are not wearing [[armour]], lose all {{gloss|hits}}. Otherwise, you may not use {{gloss|strikes}} or {{gloss|spells}}. Lasts until healed.

==== DISARM ====
Must strike the target’s arm if by weapon blow. Drop the the item you are holding with that hand or place it on the floor. If you cannot safely leave it on the ground''it is unusable for the next 10 seconds'' and any hits to it count as a hit to your arm.

==== STRIKEDOWN ====
You must roleplay being struck to the ground. You may alternatively squat for 3 seconds or put one knee and one hand to the ground if falling is unsafe. You are struck down even if you block the blow.

==== KNOCKBACK ====
You must take 3 full steps back as quickly and safely as possible. If this puts your back against a hard surface you may stop. You must step back even if you block the blow. If you cannot or do not wish to step back, you must take a STRIKEDOWN.

==== BREAK ====
Removes {{call|ENTANGLE}} and {{call|DISRUPT}}. You can make BREAK calls even whilst under the effect of {{call|DISRUPT}}.

==== RESTORE ====
You are no longer under the effect of {{call|CRUSH}} on any location.

==== CURE N ====
{{id|CURE}}
You are healed by N {{gloss|hits}}.

==== CURSE ====
See a {{gloss|ref}} as soon as possible.

==== EFFECT N ====
{{id|EFFECT}}
EFFECT may not be made on someone who is in combat. It indicates they take a complicated effect, which you then explain. Unless otherwise stated, this lasts until midnight. The strength of the effect is equal to N.

====EXECUTE====
Your character is dead.

==== COMPEL N (One complete command) ====
{{id|COMPEL}}
Unless otherwise stated, this lasts until the next {{call|REFRESH}} call.

When you take this call you follow the instruction given to the best of your ability.

A COMPEL requiring further input, i.e. “Obey my every command” will fail.

You are aware that a foreign influence is trying to control your actions.

These COMPELs last until they expire or you do one of the following:
*Spend N {{gloss|stamina}} to shake off the effect.
*Take N {{gloss|wounds}} to shake off the effect.

If you choose to take wounds and do not currently have a wound card, you may elect to take wounds on the [[Bleeding from the Eyes]] wound track as a means to streamline your roleplaying.

==== RESIST ====
This call indicates that you have heard someone else's call, but you are not reacting in the way they might expect. It is purely {{gloss|OC}} information.

==== DROP ====
You fall unconscious and cannot be roused. Normally used for visions etc. May not be {{call|RESIST}}ed.

== Dying ==
*If your character reaches 0 {{gloss|hits}}, you should fall to the floor. Your character is now {{gloss|dying}}.
*A {{gloss|dying}} character who receives a {{call|CURE}} call ceases to be {{gloss|dying}}.
*Someone who is {{gloss|dying}} can neither move under their own power nor take any IC action except talking. A {{gloss|dying}} character cannot resist any action taken on them.
*After spending 120 seconds {{gloss|dying}}, a {{gloss|character}} becomes {{gloss|terminal}}. They cannot be saved by any means, and the {{gloss|player}} may choose when the {{gloss|character}} dies.

=== Executions and Wounding ===
*An unresisting character can be {{gloss|executed}} with 10 seconds of roleplaying delivering an obvious deathblow to the target with a weapon. Call {{gloss|EXECUTE}}. Alternatively, you may give the victim a Wound.

== Wounds ==
*If your PC has been reduced to 0 hits, a Ref will give you a Wound card. Your PC has the the first level of {{gloss|wound}} on the card, and each subsequent time they become {{gloss|dying}}, they go up a level.
*PCs may also receive {{gloss|wound}}s at {{gloss|ref}} discretion.
*A {{gloss|PC}} loses 2 levels of {{gloss|wounds}} after each {{gloss|interactive}}.
