The Queen's Justice

The Queen's Justice is a larp about tyranny, religious extremism, and revolution. The fictional setting of Ussland resembles pre-revolutionary France, offering a contrast of flamboyant and destitute characters, cruelty, hope, fanaticism, desperation, and ratcheting tension between incompatible ideologies.

The scenario features 26 characters including nobles, soldiers, and a colourful rabble of the lower classes who are under suspicion for conspiring against the Queen. The eponymous Queen's Justice are a roaming court of inquisition, who would sooner execute innocents by firing squad than lose their lofty noble positions. The game takes about 2.5 hours, and can be played with between 18 and 26 players. Violence is resolved with simple live combat rules and cap guns. Included in the game are:
