"In all kingdoms there are tales, and in the Barony of Westlake, it is said that the Grimmswood hides the ruins of a long-lost realm. The daughter of its final king, cursed by a malevolent faerie, pricked her finger on a spindle upon her sixteenth birthday, in the blossom of her youth, and died. With her death, the kingdom went to ruin. Few now dare to go far into the Grimmswood, although the riches of the lost kingdom are said to lie unclaimed within. Fear of dark fey magic and even greater evils keep men out.

Or they did so until now. For Prince Hubert Charming of Westlake has determined that the long-dead Princess Beauty is only cursed to sleep away the aeons, and he will have her for his bride. His men rounded up a stable of “volunteers” at the beginning of one early autumn morning, and here you are, with what makeshift arms and equipment you had upon you when you were “volunteered”.

Your mission, the Prince’s Bailiff explains, is to enter the ruined castle, find the place where the “Sleeping” Beauty lies, and bring her forth for Prince Charming to restore with a kiss. Those who choose not to go upon this quest must take their chances with the Prince’s Guard, twenty men strong, and be declared outlaw. Those who choose to hazard their lives within the ruined castle may keep what they find, apart from the sleeping princess, but dare not leave without her."

“Put to Rest” a standard one shot game in the Avatar Legends system. Led by Ansel Burch.

The history of Royal Caldera city frequently leaves out the Battle of the Ancestors. Those records which can be found speak of the second wave, brought about by warlord Shu and his army of opportunists. Shu’s family was well connected and useful in the reunification following the final battle ensuring that his deeds were relegated to the footnotes of history, easily swept away by the arrival of Avatar Szeto. The heroes who stopped him are no less revered. Their statues gleam in the sun and have inspired generations, even if their plaques read vaguely and the names are unfamiliar. Is one of those statues secretly of you?

This game will be good if you like Avatar, zombies, and stories of young heroes.

The history of Royal Caldera city frequently leaves out the Battle of the Ancestors. The first wave of undead were stopped but the heroes who made the day had gone missing. Court records show that a private meeting was held with these benders when they finally re-surfaced and many Fire Sages have since debated on the nature of the spirit world they claim to have visited and how it differs from the one known to the Avatars and people of the spirit wilds. Are you one of the few who know these stories firsthand?

BRINDLEWOOD BAY is a roleplaying game about a group of elderly women—members of the local Murder Mavens mystery book club—who find themselves solving actual murder mysteries in their quaint New England town. There is no canon solution to the mysteries, instead, players must collect and piece together many different clues and come up with a convincing theory, then play to find out if they are right! The specific mystery will be one not played at TTRPG Pickup Con before and is selected based on submitted lines & veils :)

The Mavens themselves are all elderly women whose partners have passed away and whose children have long flown the nest. Now, they’re enjoying their golden years in the picturesque town of Brindlewood Bay, keeping their homes the way they like, pursuing their hobbies, and finding comfort and companionship in each other. Their mystery book club has been meeting on the top floor of The Candlelight Booksellers every Saturday evening for the last ten years. The Mavens are particularly fond of The Gold Crown Mysteries series by Robin Masterson, featuring the globe-trotting super-sleuth, Amanda Delacourt (which only exists in-universe and not in our world).

The Mavens' special interest in these books has resulted in them becoming amateur detectives themselves, and by the time the game starts, they have helped local police solve several high profile crimes. Sometimes people approach them to get their help on a case, but usually, the Mavens just stumble onto it—much to the chagrin of the authorities, who almost always resent their meddling.

There are some supernatural elements in play in the background, but those will need to be uncovered through repeated plays and aren't a part of this oneshot. There is also a meta-level to the setting, where the Mavens are actually characters in a TV show that the players are watching. If there is enough interest in it, the gamerunner is willing to offer this system at future cons in a West-Marches approach where both of these elements will feature more prominently.

This game will be great if you like cozy murder mysteries, PbtA games, collaborative storytelling, improv, Murder She Wrote, Riverdale, Pretty Little Liars, One Of Us Is Lying Players should build characters ahead.

Characters who played 0-2 sessions (this system has no levels). Character creation is a really quick multiple choice process. The gamerunner will contact players in advance to share handouts (rules reference & character sheets) and make your selections

Examples of potentially triggering content could include terminal illness, mental illness including mentions of attempted suicide or other self harm, bullying, substance abuse (alcohol/drugs), abandonment, kidnapping of humans or pets, imprisonment and infidelity. Not all of these are part of the same mystery, so I will work around your boundaries to provide a great game for everyone.

“Unbalance” a standard one shot game in the Avatar Legends system. Led by Ansel Burch.

The history of Royal Caldera city frequently leaves out the Battle of the Ancestors. The fire nation had fractured and lost all sense of itself as warring factions tore apart the land and its people seeking control of resources and survival. Plagues and famine had devastated the previously stong bonds shared by fire benders and their people. This unbalance manifested finally in the rising of the ancestors as zombies, sweeping across the cities and plains of the fire nation some even retaining their ability to bend. Will you be among the heroes to save the nation and help restore it to unity?

In this one-shot, you’ll play as members of The Red Hand Adventuring League. Your guild is frequently contracted to kill various beasts or bring back treasures from treacherous dungeons—it’s nice work if you can get it. For this mission, your team is being contracted by a local wizard to bring back a magic Glaive that was stolen long ago by fearsome giants. Legends say that these blood-thirsty thieves descended from their fortress in the sky to raid temples full of magical artifacts and weapons.

A game using the Dungeon Crawl Classics rules, led by Judge Bob.

The village of Maxxônia has been suffering attacks from mutant rodents that have destroyed crops and threatened the lives of the citizenry. The local militia was overwhelmed in the face of these wicked creatures and the few soldiers that returned alive came told terrible stories about the evil that infects the swamp north of the village, where is believed that the creatures come from. A desperate meeting called for bold volunteers in a desperate effort to save the village. YOU are these volunteers, and they and you will face a dangerous forest and a stinking swamp to get to the root of the problem. Perhaps it has something to do with Vexx, a mysterious elf who vanished into the swamp long ago. Could he be responsible for the danger? It is up to you, the bold villagers, to find out.
