==Plants==
Some larps use NPCs that the players are not aware as being anything other than regular players ("''plants''"), in order to do specific scenes or actions which would detract from the full player experience. For instance, [[Vreden]] had NPCs that the players thought were coplayers that were killed off or rendered incapacitated in order to drive home the seriousness serious consequences of violence at the larp. There has also been talk of using NPCs and "expelling" them from the larp early on in order to counter some perceived problem in that larp culture, such as prolific rule abuse or unsafe behaviour.{{Citation needed|reason=Who's been talking about this?}}
