6 Introduction Introduction But when the darkness sets in, their true beauty Is revealed only if there is a light from within. Elizabeth Kübler-Ross Think back to when you were a child. Games were full of make-believe. Cowboys and Indians, hide and seek, even playing with trucks and dolls all involved dreaming up worlds of adventure each day. As you got older, complex rules often replaced free-floating imagination as the basis for your amusement. With Mind s Eye Theatre, you can have both. Instead of sitting around a table describing what your character is doing, you become your character, acting out the scenes in which you are involved. If you have never done any sort of roleplaying, you can think of it as a long-running improvised play, with the world as your stage. Origins Laws of the Hunt Players Guide is part of the Mind s Eye Theatre series. It contains all the information necessary to create and run mortal characters but occasionally refers back to other MET supplements. To make best use of this supplement, you should have Laws of the Hunt and one other MET book, such as Laws of the Night, Laws of the Wild, Oblivion or The Shining Host. 5
