“The Fall of the House of Richards” a Standard One Shot in the FATE Condensed system. Led by Ansel Burch

"The Richards family have worked the land in this valley since Haywood Richards walked away from the sea with an oar on his shoulder. They've survived 200 years of history in their stately home where a time capsule has waited for November 22, 1918. What waits in the box for the remaining scions of the line and will it explain any of the strange things that have happened on the farmstead over the centuries?

Play as members of a family as they deal with the legacy of their house and face the darkness they've been quietly ignoring for generations. "

This game will be great if you like Southern Gothic Fiction, Creeping Dread, Dark Family Secrets.

The game runner will provide characters.

This session will be especially good for new players.

“Associated Spectres” a Standard One Shot in the FATE Condensed system. Led by Ansel Burch

“Associated Spectres” a Standard One Shot in the FATE Condensed system. Led by Ansel Burch

Being dead leaves a person with a lot of free time. Spending an eternity without good conversation and diverting company would be a terrible pity. I am the Herbert Wells and I've been fortunate to collect some true luminaries into my little supper club. It's not all dinner jackets and spectral cigars though. Lately, we've been getting into adventures! Care to join us?

This game will be great if you like historical figures, silly problems, and taking liberties with the truth.

FATE in the Flying City
Aug
20

FATE in the Flying City

A game using the FATE Condensed rules, led by Ansel Burch.

The planet of Citun is unique in many ways, not least of which being that it is close enough to its sun to super-heat the surface and warm a pocket of air at the core sufficient to spawn life. The empty space hosts three distinct communities. The submerged community of Pasiph, the ceiling clinging people of Alaut, and the flying city suspended evenly in the open space. Tensions are mounting, and a political coupling has been proposed. The ceremony is slated to happen soon here in the flying city.

This game will be great if you like Journey to the Center of the Earth, non-human centered high fantasy, player-motivated gameplay.

We will build characters in the session.

This game will be great for new players, and the game runner knows the system well.

Tone: Silly⚪⚪⚪⚪⚬ Serious

Combat: ⚪⚬⚬⚬⚬

Role Play: ⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪

Exploration: ⚪⚪⚪⚪⚪

This game will be hosted in room #2 of the con’s Discord server. Spectators are welcome.

CW: Flying, Falling, Claustrophobia, Drowning.

FATE Of The Galaxy
Jan
22

FATE Of The Galaxy

A game in the FATE condensed system, led by Ansel Burch.

The galaxy is big, really big. Ruling it would be near impossible. Mapping it is ridiculous and the idea of destroying it is laughable. So, when the Galactic Cartographers Union sends an urgent communique that the fate of the whole thing is in your star measuring hands... well, it's an exceptional day.

this game will be great if you like Cowboy Bebop, Star Wars, Star Trek and Firefly.

Players should build characters ahead. I will provide characters if needed.

This game will be great for new players.

This game will lean toward the dramatic and will largely favor role play over combat.

This game will be hosted on the con’s Discord server in room #1 and spectators are welcome.

CW: None.

Project Phosphorus: A Pulp FATE Adventure

A game in the FATE Condensed system, led by Ansel Burch.

Dr Sally Ammon, the noted chemist and expert in historical alchemy, has made an amazing breakthrough in releasing the full potential of phosphorous in the production of focused, energized beams. Rumour has it she can cook a chicken from the other side of a football field in under a second. You've been invited to the first-ever public demonstration of her miraculous technique ahead of the 1939 Golden Gate International Exhibition. How Dandy!

This game will be great if you like Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, The Rocketeer.

We will build characters in the session.

This game will be great for new players.

This game will be a little on the goofy side and will likely feature almost no combat.

This game will be hosted on the con discord in room 1 and spectators are allowed.

CW: Scientific negligence, theft, heights, burns.
