A live action role-playing game (LARP) in the original sense is a form of role-playing game.

History
The first LARPs were run in the late 1970s, inspired by tabletop role-playing games and genre fiction. The activity spread internationally during the 1980s and has diversified into a wide variety of styles. The players pursue goals within a fictional setting represented by real-world environments 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.
PsyOps
Steve Outtrim uses the term LARPs for government agents that try to influence (and ultimately derail) the discussion in areas that would be of interest of people that research conspiracies (aka "conspiracy theory"). The people that participate in these LARPs often make connections to each other over time and build their own 'microcosm of information'. What these people are doing is a variation of what is known from programs like Cointelpro, but adjusted for new realities that social media has created.
Known LARPERs are:
