Introductory Role-Playing Games
Intro games are designed with new or inexperienced players in mind. These are all lower-powered games offered by experienced game masters, running 4 hours with no more than 5 players. The rules are basic, characters are provided or created at the game, and there will also be some experienced players in many cases, since these games are open to all.These are not Organized Play games — each scenario is crafted by the individual GM. The games are unique because of it. If you aren’t sure how RPGs work, want to try out a new system, or want to be part of an intimate, lower-powered game, these are ideal for you. You sign up for them just like any other game, through the game registration system, either on-line, or by going to the Info Table, where you can get help. You can even drop into a game to see if there are open seats; many games throughout the convention have unexpected vacancies, and GMs love to fill every seat they offer.
