I’m getting ready for GenCon, and I hope I’ll see some of you there. Here’s what I’m up to.
ILLIMAT AND TWOGETHER STUDIOS
I’ll be at Booth 2667 for much of the convention. This is where my company, Twogether Studios, will be demonstrating our game Illimat. This is a neo-classic card game we created in conjunction with the band The Decemberists; it’s familiar and mysterious at the same time. And if you’re an Eberron player, you can check out this article about using Illimat in Eberron! We’ll be doing demos all weekend, but we also have a special promotion. Each day, the first 25 people to purchase an Illimat product receive a copy of the limited edition Rusalka Luminary, pictured above! This is ONLY at Booth 2667. We’ll also be demoing my game Action Cats at Booth 1552, and you can buy either game at either location, but you can only get the Rusalka at Booth 2667.
EBERRON EVENTS
There’s two Eberron events on the GenCon Schedule.
Exploring Eberron with Keith Baker (Friday, 11 AM – Noon; Lucas Oil Mtg Rm 4)
The D&D setting of Eberron is a world of magic, pulp adventure, and noir intrigue. It’s been fifteen years since the Fantasy Setting Search that produced Eberron: join setting creator Keith Baker for a discussion of how Eberron came to be and how the world has evolved over the years!
Inkwell Society Live! (Friday, 9 PM – 11 PM; Westin Grand Blrm I & II)
Within the seedy underbelly of Eberron metropolis, Sharn, the Inkwell Society follows the path of broken, beleaguered level zeroes who would kill for a little class, but when their rise collides with the Dream Lily cartels, they find the streets they roam are anything but home. Don’t miss DM Ruty Rutenberg unfold the next installment of the Inkwell Society LIVE at Gen Con 2018!
Both of these events have limited space, so if you’re interested, get your tickets now!
SIGNING
I’ll be doing a single signing session: Thursday from 3 PM – 4 PM at Booth 2667.
WRITER’S SYMPOSIUM
I’m participating in the GenCon Writer’s Symposium this year. It’s a great program, and I’m doing four different session.
- Convincing Aliens (Thursday, 11 AM – Noon; Marriott – Atlanta Room)
- Finding Inspiration (Thursday, 4 PM – 5 PM; Marriott – Ballroom 1)
- Dealing With Imposter Syndrome (Friday, 10 AM – 11 AM; Marriott – Atlanta Room)
- When Fantasy Jumps The Shark (Friday, 3 PM – 4 PM; Marritott – Austin Room)
Most of these are already sold out, but there’s always the chance that there will be empty seats!
Whether we play a hand of Illimat or talk about Eberron, I hope to see you at GenCon!
is there any chance that the exploring eberron talk(?) will have a downloadable recording those of us who can’t make it can download after?
I would also be interested in either a recording or some kind of recap.
I’m not recording it and don’t have the time to set that up now. But if someone who’s attending wants to record it and share it, I’m fine with it.
Wish I could make it. Sounds like fun.
Simple, direct question: do you have any plan for coming to Europe?
It’s something Jenn and I would like to do as part of our Have Dice Will Travel plan, but it’s too soon to say if it will be possible.
Let me know if I can help someway
