I love to LARP!  That's a live action role-playing game - it's so much fun!
I've heard of that before, yeah, I can see the appeal of it! You get to dress up!
Yes, and it's awesome!  There's a gamemaster that decides the rules that will be used and where we will play!
What kind of LARP do you like to do?
I like to play Lord of the Rings!  It's fun being able to physically portray their characters.
That's cool, I really like the lore of LOTR. Do you always play the same character?
No, I like to change it up sometimes and play different characters. It's interesting how LARP spread so much internationally in the 1980s!
Is that the decade it started? It seems like it's not something that has been around a long time.
No, it actually started in the 1970s.  Tabletop role-playing games is what inspired LARP!
Yeah that makes sense! Things like Dungeons and Dragons made some people want to do it in person!
