This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Well, the event catalog has been posted, but unfortunately it is in XLS and comma separated value format only right now. Sometime next week we can begin registering for events.

Here's some that think I'll probably show up at:

The D&D Open: it' a GenCon tradition for us: competitive D&D event with elimination rounds. This year it's called 'Scions of Elemental Evil' and it appears to be set in Greyhawk. We made it to the semifinals last year, and this year we are going in as a unified team.

Living Greyhawk Core Special: Into White Plume Mountain! This is a modernized "return to" type module. Looks awesome! I had a great time in the City of Brass special at DDXP. Plus, I want bragging rights to say my guy has been from the City of Brass all the way to White Plume Mountain. And if I get a magic trident, I certainly won't complain. Not sure yet if I am bringing my sorcerer or my fighter.

Greyhawk Ruins- Ruins of Discovery: This is a Living Greyhawk spin-off campaign that debuts at GenCon this year. It's LG, but it requires everyone to start a new character so that we all start on the same footing. 1st Level D&D. If anyone is intersted in trying out Living Greyhawk, I recommend you start here. I think I will debut either a Baklunish sorcerer or a scout, or possibly a hexblade.

Blackwheel Company #7- A Test of Mettle: Xendrik Expeditions. The Blackwheel Company modules have been 100% stellar, and this one looks pretty awesome- a Saving Private Ryan type operation- D&D special forces hold a besieged outpost until Deneith Mercenaries arrive. Highly recommend.
My BWC character (currently half-orc necromancer) is headed towards picking up Sea Witch by then.  

Crimson Codex #7 - A Costly Truth: Xendrik Expeditions. My Crimson Codex character (Spellscale bard)  is easily my favorite character right now. So although this module description didn't really entice me much, I'm going to jump at the chance to play her again.

XE Expedition #5: Shargon's Rage: The Expedition adventures have all been kick-ass, and this is kind of a dilemna. I can play my BWC Sea Witch (this looks to be a nautical adventure), or my favorite- the Spellscale Bard once again. I think I'll go with the Sea Witch.

Star Wars: Prelude to Defiance: This looks to be the beginning of a new Star Wars living campaign using the SW Saga rules. I'm getting in on the ground floor.

Star Wars: Rebel Run- A STAR WARS DELVE?! This kicks ass. 20 minute slots of "get as far as you can in 20 minutes" blasting.

Undermountain seems to be debuting as well. I'm not a huge Forgotten Realms fan, but the cool thing about this is that it's all pure dungeon adventuring (there's three events, and theyre all just pure dungeon- three sections of a linked mega-dungeon, actually). 4th level characters. Also, some of the treasure you pick up may be applied to your LG character.
Download Secret Santicore! (10MB). I painted the cover :)

You can already search it in the registration page, you just can't add anything to your cart.

S'ok, XLS is easy enough to deal with by throwing auto-filters at it.

I'll be running Living Spycraft Saturday morning, as well as some "unofficial" events. I might hit some official Spycraft events as well, but they have too few spots in WoF and Ten Thousand Bullets... I bet they sell out quick.
The Secret Volcano Base: my intermittently updated RPG blog.

Running: Pathfinder Scarred Lands, Mutants & Masterminds, Masks, Starfinder, Bulldogs!
Playing: Sigh. Nothing.
Planning: Some Cyberpunk thing, system TBD.
