Become the greatest wizard of the Annual Grand Rite by collecting and managing your Materia to feed your familiar and learn your spells. Act quickly to use your powers early...or wait to unleash them at full strength. Your path to victory is full of choices and combined tactics!

In SpellBook, each player, accompanied by a familiar, possesses a grimoire and collects Materia to master spells and feed their familiar. The game provides pre-drawn spell sets for use in the early rounds, but soon players start drawing spells randomly or create their own spell combinations that are common to all players. Each spell combination gives an effect that lasts the rest of the game, and the more ingenious the combination, the more powerful the effect. As the rounds progress, the game becomes a different experience every time, with more than 2,100 spell combinations being possible.

The simple rules and strategic gameplay mean that anybody can play it, but victory can only be achieved by the player whose strategy comes out on top.

This is a pirate-themed tactical race game with player interaction and side goals (e.g. detouring for treasure). The winner is the player who best balances their position in the race with their success at the side goals. The game ends on the turn when at least one player's ship reaches the finish line, completing one circuit around the island of Jamaica. At that point, players are awarded different amounts of gold in accordance with how far away from the finish line they were when the race concluded. This gold is added to any gold a player gathered along the way by detouring from the race to search for valuable treasure, by stealing gold or treasure from other players, or just by loading gold as directed by the cards the player played during the race. The player with the most total gold acquired through all these means is then declared the winner.

Saturday November 16, 2024 9:00am - 12:00pm MST
BG45 (Tourney)
A beautifully crafted 2-player abstract strategy game from Smirk & Laughter. Your turn is in two parts. First, a player may move one of their stones up to two spaces in any direction, including diagonally, in what is called a passive (or set up) move. Second, they take a more aggressive move, which must be the same direction and number of spaces as the first move. It is this second move that allows you to push stones across the board - or off the board's edge. Remove all four of your opponent's stones from just one of the four boards to win. The winner of this tournament will get a trophy, a copy of the game, plus a seat at the final round of the West Coast Regional Championship at RAGECON 2025 (as well as a free badge to RAGECON 2025)!

In a time when the world balances on a knife’s edge, a perilous mission awaits. A Fire Nation princess has been abducted, and rumors swirl of her being taken to the Temple of Four Elements, an ancient, long-forgotten structure hidden deep within the mountains. Once a sanctuary for benders of all nations, the temple now stands as a dark monument to ancient power.

Set during the era of Avatar Kyoshi, your team of heroes must unite their bending skills and cunning to infiltrate the temple, unravel its mysteries, and rescue the princess before her captors unleash a force that could tear the world asunder. But be warned—within the temple, the very elements themselves are restless, waiting to test your resolve.

Will you master the ancient energies of the temple or fall prey to its forgotten dangers? The fate of the Four Nations may rest in your hands.

The town of Stineville is a great place to have a fresh start. Interesting neighbors, plenty to do, a good assortment of local businesses. It’s enough to make anyone not want to leave. Except you’ve been noticing things. Things that make you question the reality of the town. Perhaps Stineville is a little more strange than everyone would have you believe. Fiasco is a mostly dice-less TTRPG where players act out scenes together to create a fiasco of events.

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. Knowledge of shows like "The X-Files" and "Millenium" is helpful, but not necessary. Knowledge of late '90s trivia may also enhance your experience, but is also not necessary.

The nefarious Marquise de Cat has seized the great woodland, intent on harvesting its riches. Under her rule, the many creatures of the forest have banded together. This Alliance will seek to strengthen its resources and subvert the rule of Cats. In this effort, the Alliance may enlist the help of the wandering Vagabonds who are able to move through the more dangerous woodland paths. Though some may sympathize with the Alliance’s hopes and dreams, these wanderers are old enough to remember the great birds of prey who once controlled the woods.

Meanwhile, at the edge of the region, the proud, squabbling Eyrie have found a new commander who they hope will lead their faction to resume their ancient birthright. The stage is set for a contest that will decide the fate of the great woodland. It is up to the players to decide which group will ultimately take root.

In Root, players drive the narrative, and the differences between each role create an unparalleled level of interaction and replayability.

Clash with other Gangs in the meat or on the Net, as your enterprising band of toughs seeks to gain dominance over the criminal underworld that rules the streets. Only the boldest will be remembered, and your Street Cred will pave your way to the top.

In Single Player mode, you are pitted against an opposing Gang and an Edgerunner (Johnny or either V's) in a free-for-all for Night City. Similar to the multiplayer mode, the faction with the most Street Cred wins.

In the game, players assume the role of a gang leader, with you organizing your gang members to take power in the city. Your actions affect not only your game and your opponents but the city itself. Each gang has different attributes and goals, giving each player a different gaming experience.

In PARKS, players will take on the role of two hikers as they trek through different trails across four seasons of the year. While on the trail, these hikers will take actions and collect memories of the places your hikers visit. These memories are represented by various resource tokens like mountains and forests. Collecting these memories in sets will allow players to trade them in to visit a National Park at the end of each hike.

Each trail represents one season of the year, and each season, the trails will change and grow steadily longer. The trails, represented by tiles, get shuffled in between each season and laid out anew for the next round. Resources can be tough to come by especially when someone is at the place you’re trying to reach! Campfires allow you to share a space and time with other hikers. Canteens and Gear can also be used to improve your access to resources through the game. It’ll be tough to manage building up your engine versus spending resources on parks, but we bet you’re up to the challenge. Welcome to PARKS!

Artemis simulates a spaceship bridge by networking several computers together. One computer runs the simulation and the main screen, while the others serve as workstations for the normal jobs a bridge officer might do, like Helm, Communication, Science, Engineering, and Weapon Control. Artemis is a social game where several players are together in one room (bridge) , and while they all work together, one player plays the Captain, a person who sits in the middle and tells everyone what to do.

We will have 2 full bridges and some fighter stations, so you can do joint or head to head missions.

CANCELLED: 7 Wonders Duel (both expansions)
Saturday November 16, 2024 2:00pm - 3:00pm MST
BG39 (Minis)
In many ways 7 Wonders Duel resembles its parent game 7 Wonders. Over three ages, players acquire cards that provide resources or advance their military or scientific development in order to develop a civilization and complete wonders. What's different about 7 Wonders Duel is that, as the title suggests, the game is solely for two players.

Players do not draft cards simultaneously from decks of cards, but from a display of face-down and face-up cards arranged at the start of a round. A player can take a card only if it's not covered by any others, so timing comes into play, as it can with bonus moves that allow the player to take a second card immediately. As in the original game, each acquired card can be built, discarded for coins, or used to construct a wonder. Each player also starts with four wonder cards, and the construction of a wonder provides its owner with a special ability. Only seven wonders can be built, though, so one player will end up short.

Players can purchase resources at any time from the bank, or they can gain cards during the game that provide them with resources for future building; as they are acquired, the cost for those resources increases for the opponent, representing the owner's dominance in this area.

You can win 7 Wonders Duel in one of three ways: each time you acquire a military card, you advance the military marker toward your opponent's capital (also giving you a bonus at certain positions). If you reach the opponent's capital, you win the game immediately. Or if you acquire six of seven different scientific symbols, you achieve scientific dominance and win immediately. If none of these situations occurs, then the player with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Sentinels of the Multiverse
Saturday November 16, 2024 2:00pm - 5:00pm MST
BG14
Web Link for Game
A team of heroes, all with impressive powers and abilities stand between the world and the forces of evil. Will you help them? Answer the call to protect the multiverse!

Sentinels of the Multiverse is a cooperative, fixed-deck card game with a comic book flavor. Each player plays as one of ten heroes, against one of four villains, and the battle takes place in one of four different dynamic environments.

Each player, after selecting one of the heroes, plays a deck of 40 cards against the villain and environment decks, which "play themselves", requiring the players to put the top card of the appropriate deck into play on the villain and environment turns. On each player's turn, they may play a card from their hand, use a power printed on one of their cards in play, and draw a card from their deck. Each round starts with the villain turn, continues clockwise around the table, then concludes with the environment turn. Each villain has various advantages, such as starting with certain cards in play, as specified by the villain character card. Play continues until the heroes reduce the villain to 0 or fewer HP, or until the villain defeats the heroes, either via a win condition or by reducing all the heroes to 0 or fewer HP.

The 2024 Arizona State boop. Championship
Saturday November 16, 2024 2:00pm - 5:00pm MST
BG45 (Tourney)
A deceptively cute, deceivingly challenging abstract strategy game for two players. Every time you place a kitten on the bed, it goes “boop.” Which is to say that it pushes every other kitten on the board one space away. Line up three kittens in a row to graduate them into cats… and then, get three cats in a row to win. The winner of this tournament will get a trophy, a copy of the game, plus a seat at the final round of the West Coast Regional Championship at RAGECON 2025 (as well as a free badge to RAGECON 2025)!

Spirit Island
Saturday November 16, 2024 2:00pm - 6:00pm MST
BG15
Spirit Island is a complex and thematic cooperative game about defending your island home from colonizing Invaders. Players are different spirits of the land, each with its own unique elemental powers. Every turn, players simultaneously choose which of their power cards to play, paying energy to do so. Using combinations of power cards that match a spirit's elemental affinities can grant free bonus effects. Faster powers take effect immediately, before the Invaders spread and ravage, but other magics are slower, requiring forethought and planning to use effectively. In the Spirit phase, spirits gain energy, and choose how / whether to Grow: to reclaim used power cards, to seek for new power, or to spread presence into new areas of the island.

**Roll Player**
Mighty heroes don’t just appear out of thin air -- you must create them! Race, class, alignment, skills, traits, and equipment are all elements of the perfect hero, who is ready to take on all opposition in the quest for glory and riches.

In Roll Player, you will compete to create the greatest fantasy adventurer who has ever lived, preparing your character to embark on an epic quest. Roll and draft dice to build up your character’s attributes. Purchase weapons and armor to outfit your hero. Train to gain skills and discover your hero’s traits to prepare them for their journey. Earn Reputation Stars by constructing the perfect character. The player with the greatest Reputation wins the game and will surely triumph over whatever nefarious plot lies ahead!

**Stonespine Architects**
Dungeon-crafting is an ancient Minotaur art that you’ve studied for a decade under Master Hortgully. To demonstrate your skill as your final project, you must carve your own perilous labyrinth into the base of the Stonespine Mountains.

Stonespine Architects is a card-drafting game for 1-5 players where you compete to construct the most dangerous labyrinth. Players simultaneously draft and play cards to expand their dungeons, one chamber at a time. Follow a unique blueprint and a variety of scoring challenges. Choose between mapping a path through your underground tunnels, placing key elements in your rooms, or searching for extra riches. Spend gold between rounds to customize your labyrinth with monsters, traps, treasures, and secret passages. At the end of four years, the player with the most treacherous dungeon will earn the title of Master Architect!

**LockUp**
Lockup is a competitive worker-allocation game for one to five players. In the game, players manage groups of minions -- gnolls, kobolds, bugbears, goblins, or insectoids -- locked up in Kulbak Prison.

All you gotta do now is call your Fixer and get paid. Sound easy? If it does, you must be new to Night City, choom...

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.

You've grown up together, practiced together, trained together, and even though you dont all see eye to eye, the idea of now competing against each other is hard to fathom. But the night before the big day, an ill-advised excursion to steal some time together away from the adults prying eyes results in an accident that puts your group into much greater danger than the Proving ever could. Youre all going to have to grow up pretty quick, and suddenly its not exploiting each others weaknesses, but coaxing out each others strengths that could mean the difference between life and death.This is an original adventure set in the Horizon universe (based on the Horizon: Zero Dawn computer game).

Greedy and unprincipled, this wealthy noble found a loophole in the diabolically complicated laws of the city and exploited it to seize the deed to the toyshop and threaten to boot the toy maker and his lovely creations out on the streets. What are sentient toys to do in the face of such reprehensible actions? Break in and steal the deed back, of course!

CANCELLED: 7 Wonders Duel (both expansions)
Saturday November 16, 2024 3:00pm - 4:00pm MST
BG39 (Minis)
In many ways 7 Wonders Duel resembles its parent game 7 Wonders. Over three ages, players acquire cards that provide resources or advance their military or scientific development in order to develop a civilization and complete wonders. What's different about 7 Wonders Duel is that, as the title suggests, the game is solely for two players.

Players do not draft cards simultaneously from decks of cards, but from a display of face-down and face-up cards arranged at the start of a round. A player can take a card only if it's not covered by any others, so timing comes into play, as it can with bonus moves that allow the player to take a second card immediately. As in the original game, each acquired card can be built, discarded for coins, or used to construct a wonder. Each player also starts with four wonder cards, and the construction of a wonder provides its owner with a special ability. Only seven wonders can be built, though, so one player will end up short.

Players can purchase resources at any time from the bank, or they can gain cards during the game that provide them with resources for future building; as they are acquired, the cost for those resources increases for the opponent, representing the owner's dominance in this area.

You can win 7 Wonders Duel in one of three ways: each time you acquire a military card, you advance the military marker toward your opponent's capital (also giving you a bonus at certain positions). If you reach the opponent's capital, you win the game immediately. Or if you acquire six of seven different scientific symbols, you achieve scientific dominance and win immediately. If none of these situations occurs, then the player with the most points at the end of the game wins.

Artemis is a social game where several players are together in one room (bridge) , and while they all work together, one player plays the Captain, a person who sits in the middle and tells everyone what to do.

We will have 2 full bridges and some fighter stations, so you can do joint or head to head missions.

When bees are creating honeycomb, they connect their legs together to form a chain, called a festoon. In this game, players compete the be the first to form a festoon. Players take turns placing hexagonal bee tiles adjacent to the other tiles on the table one at a time. The first player who places four bees in a straight line wins.

As players create advantageous patterns and block others, Festoon becomes a game of competitive cooperation. Players must decide whether it is more advantageous to block another player's festoon or set themselves up for victory. The simple rules and strategic gameplay mean that anybody can play it, but victory can only be achieved by the player whose strategy comes out on top.

Web Link for Game
Snow White, The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, and many other fairy tale princesses are celebrating a five-day party. The prince charmings, who have not been invited, will try to infiltrate the ball to propose marriage to the girls. As a princess, you have to avoid marriage proposals and remain single and independent after the celebrations.

Rebel Princess takes place over five rounds, representing the five days of a party, and each round has a special rule that makes each game totally different. The general mechanisms are those of trick-taking games, in which each player plays a numbered card into each trick, following one of the four suits in the game. The player with the highest number of the suit that started the trick takes all the cards of that trick — but that's not necessarily good as players want to avoid taking cards with prince charmings, who each bring one marriage proposal, aside from the enchanted frog who brings five proposals. The player with the fewest marriage proposals after five rounds wins.

Web Link for Game
GM will be playing as the beast and the 3 players will need to work tighter to defeat it.

Welcome to the Northern Expanse, a place where nature is still unexplored, mystical and dangerous. When the humans first arrived, they thought they found an unspoiled paradise, filled with bountiful forests, lakes swimming with fish and cold freshwater flowing from the mountains. But as their settlements expanded and the surrounding forests grew thinner, nature itself pushed back. Great creatures known as Beasts emerged, and with their fangs, claws and mystical powers, they proved an incredible threat to the humans. In order to protect the settlements, humans enlisted specialised hunters, tasked with tracking and killing the Beasts before too many of their kin perish.

The Beast uses a deck of direction cards to move over forests, swamps and caverns, using guile and deceit to hide its track from the hunters. However, whenever a hunter moves over a location where the Beast has previously been, a trail appears. Only when a hunter searches a location or the Beast itself attacks an unsuspecting target is the Beast's actual position revealed. More so, each hunter has but one chance of searching each round, making it a tense and difficult decision. Hunters seldom have full information whether the trail they’re pursuing contains the Beast’s actual location, or if the trail has already gone cold.

Each action you perform in this game is done by playing a card from your hand (up to a maximum of two cards per turn). This means that if a player wants to search, attack or move, they need to have a card in their hand that lets them do that. Before each round, both hunters and Beast participate in a draft for the most important cards. All action cards can be used by both Beast and hunters alike.

In order to win this game, you either need to cooperate every step of the way if you play as a hunter, or skillfully outmaneuver your opponents if you play as Beast. On their own, hunters are never

IoG
Web Link for Game
Worldspanner Factions is the grand successor to the Duel of Ages series of games. A combination of tactical RPG and adventure, Factions carries on the tradition of intensity and uniqueness. Two decades have proven that you've never played a game like this.

Two teams of heroes from past, present, and future descend into the Worldspanner Arena and compete to earn the most glory by acts of renown--and by facing down the enemy. Earn the alliance of one of the six factions, or the queen mother of the Games. For 2-8 players who divide into two teams. In effect, a co-op game with excellent opponent AI (unless your friends dump-statted INT).

The teams take turns, conducting an action with each hero--move, attack, unleash a minion. This is followed by reactions from the opposing team, after which the current team conducts adventures. Play continues for 9 or 12 turns, after which objective points are tallied. Most objective points are earned from non-combat activities such as alliances with the different factions.

Contains 49 heroes, 90 treasures and a selection of map pieces, making each play different--new teams gathering new treasure on a completely new map. Expansions bring both the treasure count and the hero count up to 360--The Full Degree.

With a ruleset significantly streamlined from Duel of Ages, Factions has half the rules word count of Duel of Ages I and over a third less than DoA II. Factions is now a game system capable of pulling in a universe of heroes (and their miniatures).

Dungeon World - The RPG system that bases the entire world on what the players want to see! This will be a super light-hearted one-shot, and is great for those who want to dip their toes into RPGs, but get hives just glancing at the rules of D&D.
Pre-generated character sheets for the basic classes will be available, along with a few curated Playbooks (the term for class types and their abilities). Dungeon World is very easy to do homebrew Playbooks, but we'll stick with the basics and what I already know is balanced.
We'll do a 30-minute primer to explain the rules, roll some math rocks to get the feel for them, then go around the table to build out the environment(s), scenery, points of interest, and possible dangers.
https://www.dungeonworldsrd.com/ is a good reference for all of the basic rules of Dungeon World, but don't forget you can get MOST of the game primers from the official site https://dungeon-world.com/

You are a group of adventurers hired by the Silver Key Adventurers Guild, a business that takes care of anything that is outside the jurisdiction of the local garrison of Winterhaven. This is a level 5 adventure where you can either build your own character using the PHB+1 (Player's Handbook + 1 supplemental book), or use the plethora of premade characters I will have available for use. The games will have a larger focus on game mechanics and combat rather than roleplay, so please do keep this in mind. All games will have a different adventure, so feel free to sign up for multiple sessions if so inclined.

Quest 16 Level (3-6). Repeatable:
The ruler of Irrisen, Queen Anastasia found a number of strange dollhouses when going through her aunt's vaults. She sent one to the Pathfinders for study. When Aslynn's magic was unleashed in the vaults of Skyreach, the dollhouse's magic was reactivated. In reality, these dollhouses were prisons which would shrink down those who angered Elvanna, the former queen. Now the magic is poised to ensnare the PCs. What's more, the animate doll servants have awakened as poppets, and while some are happy to help, others are not so welcoming. Written by Brite Cheney

And

Quest 7 Level (1-4):
Money is power in the land of Druma and those who know how best to manipulate the economics of the land have the most of both. The PCs are sent to Druma to investigate a missing ship and the particulars of an insurance claim related to its disappearance, though both ravenous undead and agents of one of the Pathfinder Society's fiercest rival organizations seek to keep them from the truth behind the ship's sad end. Written by: Dennis Muldoon

Saturday November 16, 2024 8:00pm - Sunday November 17, 2024 12:00am MST
RPG17
A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 3rd- through 6th-level characters.

Time after time, enemies of the Society have attacked the Grand Lodge in Absalom. Following the sudden surge in disasters befalling the Society's lodges across the Inner Sea, the Society's leadership sought the expertise of one of its strongest new allies—the hobgoblin nation of Oprak—in bolstering the Grand Lodge's defenses. These new defenses prove their worth when they signal a sudden infiltration by shadowy foes. With the Society's forces stretched thin, will the few agents stationed at the Grand Lodge be enough to repel this sudden attack? If they succeed, what might the agents learn about the enemies orchestrating the Society's recent troubles?

Saturday November 16, 2024 8:00pm - Sunday November 17, 2024 12:00am MST
RPG15
A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for 1st- through 4th-level characters.

Many newer agents are often sent to the Three Gates Lodge to make sure that the wildlife on the island isn’t out of control, and that the various allies that the Society made when claiming the lodge are rewarded for their continued aid. The tasks are routine, as the greatest threats were dealt with when initially setting up the lodge, and Venture-Captain Kukuha Mukai performed a ritual utilizing the ley-lines. This ritual is a form of powerful defensive magic and almost guarantees safety from all but the direst threats.

The PCs are the latest agents dispatched for this duty. Unfortunately for them, shortly after they arrive, so too does the direst of threats: a god dies, and a strange rain falls over the island, just as the PCs are being briefed. Now they have to deal with the literal fallout, as no one else is near, and no help can come for some time.

If you are a fan of stuff like Final Fantasy, Elder Scrolls, Starfield, Destiny, Ark: Survival Evolved, Monster Hunter World of Diablo - then Legends of Kralis is right up your alley. Come play characters types from these games and many others!

Through out the world there is always some wild-eyed old man raving in a local tavern or inn about them finding some lost mine or cave that has hidden treasure and relics. This happens to be the exact situation that the party
has found them staring at. Old man Bowditch, a ragged old man, dressed in torn and tattered clothes. He seems to be a part of the tavern, sitting in corner hovering over his drink and whatever food he gets.
He is always muttering to himself, and occasionally has an outburst as though he is arguing with some one or something else.
Recently, his muttering have changed and now all he talks about is a series of caves in the near-by mountains filled with gold, silver and other relics. And he also talks about how he cannot find his way back. He also seems to be wearing an ancient cloak covered in what looks like runes, and possibly a map. His ramblings describe a cave filled with treasure and artifacts. He is constantly rubbing his thumbs over a large gold
item of unusual design.
You are currently running low on funds, your armor could be better and your weapons are dull, so if there is lost treasure to be found you might just be the ones to locate it

This adventure is Sci-fi based and is an introduction to the Legends of Kralis game system.

Savage Rifts: Carnival of Cadavers - MULTI-TABLE SAGA by PHX RPGs

RPG07
Event Name: Savage Rifts: Carnival of Cadavers
Event Type: A Savage Worlds Saga
RPG System: Savage Worlds Adventure Edition
Experience Required? Helpful, but not required. The event is designed to help new players learn the system.
Characters Required? Pre-made characters provided.
Summary: The Tomorrow Legion investigates foul play in southern Arizona where a new carnival is at the center of missing person cases.

Rifts® is a multi-genre role-playing game that captures the imagination unlike any other. Elements of magic, horror, and the supernatural co-exist with science, high technology and the ordinary. The game spans countless dimensions, making anything and everything possible. Players are truly limited only by their imaginations!

Before the Great Cataclysm, Arizona was moderately popu­lated and housed the greatest number of its residents in and around the capital of Phoenix, very near the geometric center of the state. In Rifts®, the population is much less concentrated, with small ranches, homesteads, towns and nomadic tribes scat­tered throughout the region. Arizona is very expansive and foreboding to would-be settlers. Dinosaurs, monsters, vampires and creatures from the Rifts roam the land, as do bandits, thieves, outcasts, Simvan, and adventurers.

Recently several missing persons have centered around a new carnival that has popped up at the southern edge of the area. The Tomorrow Legion is investigating along side Alba (Dawnbringers) as vampiric activity is suspected.

Join us to exterminate any evil found in the area

IF YOU ARE NOT SURE WHAT TO PLAY, THIS IS THE EVENT YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS!

THIS WILL BE A CHARITY EVENT. YOU CAN PURCHASE BENNIES (Rerolls of a sort) FOR 1 DOLLAR.

Tanto Cuore: Memento Mori

Web Link for Game
It appears you have Inherited the abandoned Twilight Manor, which has sat dormant for decades since the family was chased away by the resident ghosts. No one knows for certain what transpired within these walls, but the hauntings have left the property untouched and possibly cursed.

It’s now up to the Twilight sisters to try to bring new life into their ancestral home. How far will they get as troublesome hauntings make things even more challenging while they try to restore the manor? It seems the ghosts aren’t too happy with the renovations and will do everything in their power to stop you!
Tanto Cuore 6 offers several new game mechanics. In here, the players are in a rush to complete dilapidated rooms, avoid the ghosts, and perform seances to help with their goals. However, the spirits are not always willing to play along, and they can at times go out of their way to mess up your strategy if they turn evil!

In Flamecraft, 1-5 players take on the role of Flamekeepers, gathering items, placing dragons and casting enchantments to enhance the shops of the town. Dragons are specialized (bread, meat, iron, crystal, plant and potion) and the Flamekeepers know which shops are the best home for each. Visit a shop to gain items and a favor from one of the dragons there. Gathered items can be used to enchant a shop, gaining reputation and the favors of all the dragons in the shop. If you are fortunate enough to attract fancy dragons then you will have opportunities to secure even more reputation.

In Red Dragon Inn, you and your friends are a party of heroic, fantasy adventurers. You've raided the dungeon, killed the monsters, and taken their treasure. Now you're back, and what better way to celebrate your most recent victory than to spend an evening at the Red Dragon Inn. You and your adventuring companions will spend the night drinking, gambling, and roughhousing. The last person who is both sober enough to remain conscious and shrewd enough to hold onto his Gold Coins wins the game.
