Description

This game was written at the Intercon XVI dead dog party. Drew was showing off his pants and having had a severe lack of sleep that weekend, I decided to write a game about it. The character parts in the game are all famous, or infamous, items of the core LARPA community.

This is a trading game where the objects traded actually form the characters. Players get three items and then use those three items to form a character. However, if a player can guess what items another player has, he can steal an item from that player, trading him an item in return. The new items now comprise the character's personality.

Each item is worth a number of Pants Points. The object of the game is to end up with the most Pants Points. Pants Points are determined by a number of factors including, size of object, niftyness of object, and closeness to Drew's Pants. They range from 5 (Drew's Pants) to -1 (Mike's Foam Armor).

Wardrobe Points are bonus Pants Points based on matching clothes. Clothes match if the names of the owners match, even if they are different people. Eric's Loincloth goes with Eric's Cloak event though they technically belong to two different Erics. You get two Wardrobe Points if two of your items match, and five Wardrobe Points if three or more of your items match.

Once you have the hand of the game, forget these items and replace them with items from your own gaming group.
