Ashes of Athas at Owlcon

Because of the success of Dark Sun gaming at Comicpalooza in 2010 and 2011, we wanted to link the Ashes of Athas Living play for this campaign in Houston, especially since too few of us travel to GenCon, Origins, etc.



The Incomparable Mr. Sims!

Also, with gaming legend Chris Sims returning to Houston for Owlcon (along with Keith Baker of Eberron fame), we'll have a global admin so we're in a good place to offer lots of hot AoA play under the blistering sun of Athas.

Chapter 1 was offered at Comicpalooza 2011.  Chapter 2 would have been retired, but we received special permission to offer it, and we're going ahead with Chapter 3 as well.  Each chapter offers 3 adventures in an arc, so there will be 6 different mods you can play at Owlcon, a full 24 hours of Athas awesomeness! ( 6 mods x 4 hours per slot).

For Owlcon, I am only focusing on AoA and letting those experienced vets do their thing without my interference.  I am still looking for a few DMs and Owlcon offers a free pass for DMs willing to run 2 slots over the weekend.   Owlcon XXXI is February 3 - 5, 2012.
