It's free. It will never cost a penny to download or use.
It's generic. The system isn't married to any particular game world or setting allowing those who use it the freedom to customize their setting as they see fit.
It's a stand alone system. Everything a person needs to know to play the game is in the rule book, there are no hidden systems or parts just for a select group of people.
It's classless. Allows each player the freedom to customize their character as they see fit with the skills they feel their charcter should have.

Long answer: The use of the system and other information on the site is free for non-commercial use. If a person wishes to run a game and charge any fees for it then they must sign up as a sanctioned chapter.
How do I join Mortalis LARP/Mortalis Games?
You can join the Mortalis Games website anywhere on the site by registering for an account. Once the game system and some related information is released for public use and chapters form up you can join up with one of them to enjoy playing the game, or you can start your own chapter. Keep an eye out here for updates as those will be coming before long.
What are the benefits of becoming a sanctioned chapter?
As a sanctioned chapter you'll receive these benefits:
Chapter owners gain access to special forums and sections of the national web site that contain further information which new and old chapters will find useful.
Chapter owners gain access to special tag, character, and monster sheet templates, a handbook with further information, and more.
Players of sanctioned chapters can visit and play a character of theirs in other sanctioned chapters.
Your chapter will be promoted on the national web site and gain exposure as the national web site and organization are advertised.
You will have a voice in the creation and modification of new and current rules, policies, and procedures as each chapter has one seat and vote on the Mortalis Games Board of Directors.
How does my group become a sanctioned chapter?
Right now no registrations are being accepted for new chapters since work is still being done on the system and its parent organization. More information about starting Mortalis LARP chapter will be available on this site once development has reached that point.
Can I help play test the system?
As of right now a play test start date has not been set, however one should be set soon. For more information on playtesting Mortalis please visit the Playtesting page.
Why can't I download any of the files?
Right now the system is being worked so things are in constant flux right now. This is also being done to help reduce the "borrowing" of ideas before I am ready to release the game. As of right now only a few people who are assisting me with the work have access to these files. Once things are completed an announcement will be made and the rules set made available to the public.
What happened to Mortalis RPG?
It has been decided after looking at the current standing of projects and the hobby market to cut Mortalis RPG so that full focus can be put on the quality development of Mortalis LARP. After Mortalis LARP releases Mortalis RPG will be re-evaluated and may be brought back into development.
