RinCon 2024

In the vast emptiness of the cosmos, secrets lurk in the darkness of nothingness. An ancient evil promises death to any who fight it, fortune to any who capture it, and glory to any who kill it. From Free League Publishing is the ALIEN RPG, based on the film/game series of the same name. This module, named "Chariot of the Gods" serves as a cinematic introduction to the game and world of ALIEN, and features a full one-shot adventure with pre-generated characters.

Cyberpunk RED is the latest edition of the classic TTRPG of the Dark Future, featuring updated mechanics and new lore set midway between the events of the tabletop Cyberpunk 2020 and CD Projekt Red’s Cyberpunk 2077. We'll be using the latest rulesets as provided in the Cyberpunk RED: Easy Mode book for fast, streamlined play. Dice and pregenerated character sheets will be provided. The game primarily uses d10 and d6 and players will be able to take home one of each as a souvenir.

This is an introductory type of session meant for players of all skill levels. Players will choose one of five available character roles and briefly work together to create a backstory for their crew. We'll hit the ground running with the fallout of a successful mission and learn some of the intricacies of the game as we go. Teamwork will be everything. The game features the Interlock system from R Talsorian Games and works best as a vehicle for storytelling. Look forward to working together with the GM and some new or established choombas to tell a gritty story worth the mirror shades you bring to the session.* Rule of Cool absolutely applies here. See you on the Streets!

*Mirror shades recommended but certainly not required.

It's October, 1999, and you're at a nondescript rest stop off I-90 in northern Idaho. A somewhat unseasonal blizzard has stranded you, a few other travelers, and a skeleton shift of employees for the duration. You're content to settle in with a hot cup of what passes for coffee and some idle conversation with the other patrons, but something feels... off.

Which is when the lights go out.

"Exit 23" is an adventure from the Dark*Matter horror-conspiracy setting created by WotC, but we'll be using the venerable GURPS.

Pregens will be provided and rules will be taught.

A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1–4 (subtiers 1–2 and 3–4).

The Pathfinders travel to Iobaria, where elven druids and centaur warriors are united against an unlikely threat: a self-propogating horde of corrupted leshys! The source of the Abyssal corruption may be tied to a previous trip to Iobaria by the Pathfinder Society, so it falls to the PCs to seek out the source of the leshy incursion and restore balance to the woodlands.
