[GenCon] Where Dark Elves Rule - Sat. night 9pm - 1am

I'm going to run a game for the first time at Gen Con. It is an adaptation of the published adventure I wrote years ago only with a huge twist.

A crack team of highly experienced adventurers have been hired to recover an artifact of immense value to an eccentric collector. In an abandoned temple, a diamond the size of a man's head is just waiting to be snatched up. Sounds easy right? Then why does the collector insist on seasoned adventurers to perform this quest? And why does he have a fear of dark elves? Find out if you dare.

This adventure is designed for up to 5 players using the D&D 3.5 rules. Just chime in if you want to play. If there is enough demand, I could run a second game on a different day depending on my schedule.

Edit: I'm going to move it back to 9:00pm to avoid a schedule confilict with another game.

Spot 1: der kluge (Cleric)
Spot 2:
Spot 3:
Spot 4:
Spot 5:

Alt 1: Mistwell (maybe)
Alt 2: Thunderfoot (from EN World)

Yes, it's past my bedtime, particularly if it moves to 9, but it's Gen Con! And Gen Con only happens once a year!

Alenda's all-girls game is during part of this, so I'm going to definitely drop. Sorry.

Pregens, yes.
Level, I haven't fully decided but probably around 16th unless I want to go the "put the players through hell" route and reduce it to 10th.

Incidentally, not only did Seonaid drop out of both of our games, but my game got moved back to end at 8.

This still might be too late for me to play, but I may consider it.

If I wasn't in JC's earlier game, I'd be in yours in a heartbeat. Damn. Too many games to fit in such a tight schedule.

I may decide to do this game on a different day and time to make it easier to play for folks. I'm thinking maybe Wednesday or Thursday night. If you have a preference pipe up.

Last call for players, otherwise I will probably cancel it.
