MeAd (or Mead) is a fantasy setting for Live Action Role Play (LARP).
Wikipedia says: A live action role-playing game (LARP) is a form of role-playing game where the participants physically act out their characters' actions. The players pursue goals within a fictional setting represented by the real world, while interacting with each other in character. The outcome of player actions may be mediated by game rules, or determined by consensus among players. Event arrangers called gamemasters decide the setting and rules to be used and facilitate play.
Unlike traditional table top roleplaying, this is a physical environment. There are going to be monsters who will be storming down on you and you will need to defend yourself!

But getting started in a new hobby can be intimidating.
First remember, this is all for fun and we’re a friendly (if slightly zany) bunch of people.
Second, you have quite a few resources at your disposal like the Newbie Section. Start with that and feel free to contact us on the forum or characters@meadsa.co.za
MEAD also includes a between session strategy game to handle the politics. For a full explanation, read here: MEAD In Between Session Strategy Game
They say a picture is worth a thousand words though (and we have close to a thousand pictures :P ): Galleries
