Women's Space: Hurt Party - A Game of Bad Apologies

Saturday November 16, 2024 4:00pm - 5:00pm MST

Women's Space B (51)

Have you ever made a mistake? Hurt someone’s feelings? Said something you wish you hadn’t? Hurt Party: A Game of Bad Apologies is a party game that pokes fun at all the unfortunate ways we say we’re sorry. It hurts to know we've hurt someone, especially when we know we didn't mean to. We never want to hurt the people we love, but inevitably, being human means we make mistakes. And because we value those relationships, we apologize! But it doesn't always go the way we planned.
Hurt Party is designed for 2-7 players. Officially, Hurt Party is for ages 14 and up, though none of the cards in the deck are inappropriate for younger players. Gameplay takes 10-20 minutes, based on the number of players.

Tanto Cuore: Memento Mori

Saturday November 16, 2024 8:00pm - 9:00pm MST

BG18

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!

Saturday November 16, 2024 8:00pm - 11:00pm MST

BG27

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

Special Programs (52)

"The soft glow of the willowisps and fireflies dance amidst the moon dappled grove of the ancient woods. The heady scents of flowers and earth waft upon the cool evening breeze. The gentle rustle of leaves, the babbling brook, and denizens of the forest, entwine with the soft music of flutes and harps floating through the velvety night. Before you stand a henge of tall stone pillars reflecting the brilliant light of the full moon. A shock shudders through you as you take in the grisly scene before your eyes! In the center of the standing stones, lies a battered and bloody form.

Who could have wrought such violence in the very heart of the Enchanted Forest? Who had the motive, means and opportunity to commit this crime? Are you up to the challenge of finding the killer?

Join us at RinCon 2024 for "An Untimely End in the Enchanted Forest - A Murder Mystery Event". You can be a creature of legend and find the culprit who committed murder! You, and the other forest folk, will strive to find who had the motive, means, and opportunity to take another's life. Role play is encouraged, but not required.

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/

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.

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.
