Definition

A physical object or improvised stand-in used in live-action roleplay (LARP) to represent something that can't realistically be brought into the game—like a foam prop sword for an actual sword, or a marked square for a trap. It's the LARP equivalent of 'use your imagination, but with props.'

Example Usage

The player used a glow stick as a physrep for magical energy radiating from the spell.

It's what happens when you can't just say 'agree' or 'compromise' like a normal person. Perfectly captures the internet's obsession with creating new words for things we already have words for.
