2019 Spring Convention Schedule
Adam A. Thompson will be running games this spring at OwlCon in Houston, TX and at GaryCon in Lake Geneva, WI.
If you’d like to play some games with Adam, schedules are as follows:
OwlCon 2019 – Rice University Campus (Houston, TX) – Feburary 22 – 24
Classic Dungeons & Dragons (5e) – Saturday at 10:00 AM, 8 hours, Student Center: Sammy’s:4
Many heroes have traveled into the hills above Verbonbc in search of the rumored lost treasure of Rufulo and Zanzabar. But a new terror inhabited the black craig a month ago – a dragon and evil cultists devoted to it. Now two of the village’s children have been kidnapped, slated to be sacrificed in just eight hours! Dare you adventurers venture thither to rescue the children?
Traveller: First Run – Sunday 10 AM, 4 hours, Herring Hall:224:1
Try your hand at one of the original science-fiction role-playing games: Traveller. No previous experience required. In a far-flung future where anything is possible, the players will first create their own characters, earning skills, contacts, and enemies as they journey through the depths of space. Then, events that no one could have predicted will hurl the characters into crisis that could threaten their very lives!
GaryCon 2019 – Grand Geneva Resort & Spa (Lake Geneva, WI) – March 7 – 10
Vampyre Women of Venus Open Play – Friday at 6:00 PM, 4 hours, at Forum C FORC-363
An adventure board game set on a pulp sci-fi planet Venus where the players’ rocket ship has crash landed. New players may try their luck every hour with this quick game. Rotating rounds of play should be the norm. Three different ways to win—solo or co-operative. Stop by at the top of any hour to play.
Classic Dungeons & Dragons (5e) – Saturday at 1:00 PM, 8 hours 1777, Westgate A WGA-394
Many heroes have traveled into the hills above Verbonbc in search of the rumored lost treasure of Rufulo and Zanzabar. But lately, a new threat has inhabited the bleak peak: A night-soaring dragon and its reptilian worshipers. Now the cultists have kidnapped some of the village children to be sacrificed to the dragon at midnight! Dare ye adventurers venture thither?

One Page Dungeon Contest 2014
The April 30th deadline for the One Page Dungeon Contest 2014 is rapidly approaching! This fantastic “competition” is a great excuse to dust off an old adventure you’re run and distill it to its essence. You can find out lots more about what one pagers are all about, including the submission rules and guidelines on their site in case you want to share your one-page creations with the (role playing) world.
The site is also a fine repository of fantastic ideas for adventures if you’re running one in the near future. Nothing quite like being prepared for a game you’re running…
I have put together a one-page version of an adventure we ran at a few Houston gaming conventions in 2013, The Tomb of Athganazar and just submitted it. Regardless of how it fares, the joy is in the making!

Free Download of Fourthcore Alphabet
In honor of Halloween, SVD Press has made their Fouthcore Alphabet available as a free PDF download from Lulu now through the dark holiday.
We have found this to be a valuable resource for generating new ideas for dungeons, denizens, and deathtraps! Each letter of the roman alphabet contains tables of 1d20 and 2d20 roll results with juicy elements to pick and choose in your deep or ad hoc dungeon design.
Go get your copy now before it’s too late. You’ll kick yourself if you don’t.
And as always, make it fun!
