Venice freeform larp

Venice is a freeform larp for 15 players set in mythic sixteenth-century Venice. It was written at Peaky 2013 and takes about three hours to run.

Venice is ruled by five powerful families, alike in dignity: the Capones, the Capulets, the Corleones, the Montagues and the Sopranos.

Lady Theresa Capulet, the Doge, the ultimate authority in Venice, has been murdered and the five ruling families of Venice are meeting to decide who is to replace her…

Venice is a factions game, where players are all members of one of the families and are vying for power.

Authors: Kate Dicey, Steve Hatherley and Tym Norris with assistance from Debbie Hollingworth.
