The Crossroads, Revised Edition

Since October of 2000, The Crossroads has been constantly refined to be one of the most intense and comprehensive live-action roleplaying systems on the market. With 6 classes, nearly 30 races, virtues and flaws, Orders, 10 forms of magic, and over 250 individual skills, The Crossroads offers more character options than any other modern LARP. The latest edition builds upon its predecessors, adding many new rules and flavor to differentiate the base classes and make them more distinct and useful in play.
