The world has changed since the end of season 7. The Slayers have gotten all organisey and missiony but there are a few newly awoken slayers that aren't part of the plan. They still live with their folks, struggle with math and try to get by at school. One such slayer is trying to avoid flunking school and do their bit to keep the world safe, now if only they hadn't been grounded for smoking...

Yes I'm running it again, with some twists....

Musketeers, Skyships, Swashbuckers, and Pirates. All of these meet in the port city of Agua Azul on the free cloud island Crail.

When a mysterious artifact is brought in to the port , The Falcons of Agua Azul must track down the conspiracy looking to destroy the city. Could it be a super weapon left over from a people long forgotten ? an assasin's cache in a plot to kill the commandant and plunge the city into disorder?

Either way a motley crew of miscreants / musketeers or municpal employees must solve this riddle.

From there, you have been moved out to near a military airfield and told to wait pending an announcement that should come in an hour or two.

This was a great year for the SDC with five entrants submitting 7 scenarios. The games covered a range of genre from futuristic horror to two fisted mystery to camp humour. The quality of the games was universally high and choosing a winning scenario was no easy task.

Well, KapCon 18 is over, and we have to wait an entire year till another. Thanks to everyone who came along and made it such a lot of fun, especially our overseas visitors and the LARP team, but not forgetting all our amazing facilitators!

In the meantime, you can look at pictures of the LARP (some more are available here, but you'll need a Facebook log-in to see them), or follow the thread on NZ-RAG where people link to posts about their experiences of the convention. If you've written one, or just want to make some comments, go to the thread and link yours in, we all want to hear what people thought!

Now we have to figure out what (if anything) next year's KapCon will be subtitled!

PALMERSTON NORTH: A lab accident at Massey University claimed the life of a researcher yesterday. The accident is understood to have occured in a biological research lab on the university campus. No names have been released.
Police are remaining close-mouthed about the incident, and have cordoned off the area pending a full investigation.

There are no aliens out in the Black. That's what they tell you. But on the planet of Edgerock, there are rumours of strange creatures attacking the local homesteads. A small team of mercenaries might just find out what's going on.

June 1936. For two minutes on a stormy night, a face was seen looking down on Manhattan. Now every paranormal investigator from the nearest three states has come to investigate why this has happened... and reveal its secret.

First mission of the Denver story arc from Shadowrun Missions. This is a simple small package delivery, easy enough, right?

This is part of the ongoing Shadowrun Missions series of games, and is the first game set in Denver. You are welcome to bring along a new character you wish to use in Shadowrun missions games, otherwise I will have a selection of pre-generated characters with me for you to choose from.

It's the 1940s, and in the city of Purity a D.A. looking to make a name for himself has caught a break -- there's someone willing to testify against the city's biggest mob boss. He's got himself a "task force" of two pairs of detectives, and together they're meant to strike a blow for justice against someone who thinks they're above the law. But in the most corrupt city in America, where everyone has a dirty little secret, who can you trust?

This game will be run using the Mountain Witch rules, with a fair amount of player narration.
