LARPing is just acting, but with no audience -_-

Everything is an act, Dragon.

all the world's a stage
and all the men and women merely players
they each have their exits and their entrances
and one man in his time plays many parts

D&D is Dungeons & Dragons. You probably know it by that name!? Anyway, go to it's Site or to Wikipedia and find out what those are, in real life.

There are 2 famous sistems above all others, D&D and the one from White Wolf, which includes various specific settings: Vampire the Masquerade, Hunters the reckoning, Mage the awakening, Werewolf, etc. You may have also heard of Vampire the Masquerade. Lots of games have been made using the rules of real D&D (like Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights) and a few using the setting of Vampire the Masquerade.

Anyway, thanks for the help. I found quite some interesting stuffs.

That is incorrect! Trading card gamers are at the same level as RPGers, quite often even worst.

Actually, computer game geeks can fall into the «trading card games»/«pen and paper RPG», especially those who play mmoRPGs/RPGs. Those are the people who, when you hear them speak, all you hear is:
«So i was power leveling in the To3W and morgion only hited me 1 time cause i had an AC of over 1300. HAHAHA» «HAHAHA. And me, the other day, was fighting a cleric, he had a screaming armour but i had gloves of the sun and a neclace of djamir and, everytime he tried to send me a spell, i pumeled him, hhaha.» «huuuu, that has to hurt.»
Which is quite funny to hear (especially because i see miself a little in all that).

Shadowrun is probably the obvious one; it's one of the most popular pen and paper games.

And, of course, it's going to become even more popular when the lore-raping Xbox 360 game comes out.

Learn sarcasm, for 1 :P

And eh, I feel you are better off finding out on your own :P

Masquerade!
Every face is a parade.
Masquerade.
Hide your face
So the world, will never find you.


...sorry. I wanted a song too. Except the other one was really a poem. But this sorta becomes a poem when it's written down and not sung.
