Never roleplayed before?

Help, I'm not sure what to do!

Roleplaying conventions are places where people come to meet other gamers, play your favourite games or try new games, and look through the retailers' stall. There are card and miniatures games to play, but the main attraction is the roleplaying games.

Each game is a short adventure, and most come with pre-generated characters, so you can get straight into the game and make the most of your time. This is a great chance to meet other people who like your favourite game, and to try new games.

Browse the games listed on this website, and when you're ready fill in the entry form to register your interest in playing the games you want. Or you can just come along on Registration Night to see what's going on! Bring a friend or two or join a team of other players at the convention.

Time at the convention is divided into (two and a half? three?)-hour long sessions - most games take only one session. If you can only attend some of the sessions, just let us know.
