Saturday 25th May Morning Sessions
Brindlewood Bay
Brindlewood Bay is a tabletop roleplaying game that combines Murder, She Wrote with H.P. Lovecraft.
In it, you play a group of elderly women, members of the local Murder Mavens Mystery Book Club, who help the authorities solve murder cases in a picturesque New England Town.
Over the course of their investigations, they become aware of a dark occult conspiracy that connects the cases, and will eventually have to face that conspiracy in order to save their community.
Terminus RPG
Terminus is a far-future Spacepunk RPG with a focus on narrative Storytelling in a unique setting created in Australia.
In Terminus you will take on the role of a Terminal, someone who has been disenfranchised to the brink of destruction and is ready to fight back - even if it means going out in one hell of a blaze of glory. It all comes down to one singular, unifying desire: raze the system and do it stylin'.
All classes have four unique programs, each that grant it wild and powerful abilites. From dimension-jumping Gatekeepers and people-puppeteering Techromancers, to memory-manipulating Plastics and narrative-exploring StreetSharks, every class is distinct, powerful and a helluva lot of fun to drive.
Fangwood Keep
Claim the Castle! Fangwood Keep has changed hands innumerable times since its founding decades ago on the border between the warring nations of Molthune and Nirmathas.
Over the years, both countries have sacrificed money and soldiers in an effort to control the fortress along the Marideth River valley, both for its tactical location and for its secure defenses.
Recently, however, the battles around Fangwood Keep have dwindled to a trickle as Nirmathas has firmly rooted itself in the surrounding valley, allowing the tide of war to shift elsewhere and peace to settle at last over Fangwood Keep.
Shadowrun 5e
When magic returned to the world in 2011, everything changed. Dragons appeared and babies were born that resembled dwarves, elves and orks. But as much as things change, some stay the same. Multinational corporations have the same legal status as governments but a hell of a lot more power and money.
With one notable exception: ever since a swirling, permanent manastorm cut Sydney off from the rest of the world, the Sydney Metro Council assumed control and all but declared independence from New South Wales, Australia, or anyone else who might claim the vast wealth of magical weirdness going on inside.
Watch your back. Shoot straight. Conserve ammo. And never, ever, cut a deal with a dragon.
D&D 5e The Cursed Menagerie
The sleepy village of Willowbrook is under a strange curse, all the village's butchered livestock and over small animals aren't staying dead. Rats, squirrels, sheep, wild pigs and the occasional cow are all coming back as undead versions of themselves.
They aren't dangerous, just mindless, but the villager's are starting to eat their larders bare and could have no stored food for winter.

Players find themselves amidst the festivities, navigating through the bustling crowds and partaking in various daytime activities.
As evening approaches and the sky darkens, mysterious figures clad in elaborate masks begin to emerge, adding an air of mystique to the affair.

In 'At the Edge of Existence,' players will confront the challenges of survival in the unforgiving depths of space. With danger lurking around every corner and time ticking away, teamwork and resourcefulness are their only hope for salvation.
In-the-Footsteps-of-Horror
A group of powerful Pathfinders had to abandon the exploration of an underground complex after defeating a powerful lich and stopping a devatating ritual by the skin of their teeth.
The PCs are tasked with exploring this complex now cleared of threats and cataloguing what's there.
The ritual, though, while incomplete, has still linked the site to its conterpart in the Netherworld, and once they enter the PCs find that their task will not be as simple or boring as promised, as they have to fight through the shadowy mirror of the Netherworld complex just to get back home, with unknown threats that most assuredly were not cleared out.
