The collapse came fast but the fall is taking... longer. Magic hit us like thunder. The world is still reeling at the birth of true alchemy, the revelation of sorcery, and the equality of conjuring but we can't afford to be complacent. This magic is new to us. The study of it is even newer. So, when the true practitioners show up from across the rift, we're going to need to be ready.

This game will be great if you like stories of magic in the modern world. We will build characters in the session.

New players are welcome.

The game runner is very familiar with this system.

A game using the Quiet Year rules, run by Ansel Burch.

Our community has been isolated and all that is left now is to survive until we are saved or destroyed. Will our community be able to overcome the hardships of this inhospitable new place? What will we discover over the course of one year's effort?

This game will be great if you like stories of community building and perseverance.

Characters will be built in session.

This game is great for new players.

This game will lean a little on the serious side and will feature almost no mechanically driven combat.

This game will be hosted on the con’s Discord server in room #2 and spectators are welcome.

A World Unlike Any Other

A game of “The Quiet Year” led by Cameron Evesque Davis.

Ever wanted to create a fascinating world and see how a village of people might survive, complete with conflicts from outside and inside? Well, The Quiet Year is the bizarre world building map drawing game for you. Throughout a few hours, we will guide (and sometimes harm) a community of people struggling to survive after some sort of apocalypse. This (relatively) Quiet Year will be filled with successes and failures and is certainly going to be fun (for us) to experience.

  • This game will be great if you like Civilization, Banished, etc.

  • Characters will be built in session… along with everything else.

  • This game will be best for moderately experienced players.

  • This game will balance silliness and seriousness. It will be entirely role play with no mechanical combat.

  • This game will be run in the con’s discord server and spectators will be allowed.

  • CW: Only what you bring with you.
