===Main Events & Side Quest Announcement===

====SimuCon Main Events: Live Alterations====

Back again this year, there will be two sessions per day on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday where you will be able to sit with a GameMaster and get an alteration done. Look for posted GM names when our schedule is solidified!

====SimuCon Main Quest: Roarin’ 20’s Themed Casino Night!====

Join us in the main room for an exciting and fun Roarin’ 20’s Costumed (or Casual!) Event as we dive into a Speakeasy to play Craps, Texas Hold ‘em, Roulette, Blackjack, and 3-card Poker!
Elite Events will be providing this entertainment for us, while Simutronics will be providing the funny money for the games. There will be prizes and purchases that can be made with your earnings! Come ready to play!

====SimuCon Side Quests: Jackbox Games====
During SimuCon, we’ll be hosting a Jackbox Party. Attendants will enter a raffle to see if they are a player in the game. We’ll run several rounds this way, and then all the winners will have a head-to-head battle to see who reigns supreme!

We will be using one of the SimuCon Breakout Rooms for this event and anyone not playing gets to be in the audience!

Non-attendees watching on Twitch will also get to be part of the audience!

Don't know what Jackbox Games are? Here's a handy link: [https://www.jackboxgames.com/ Jackbox Games]

====SimuCon Side Quest: D&D====
Whether you are a seasoned veteran of the game or have never played before, this fun session based in Elanthia is open to all! There will be a ZERO Session to help you understand the basic mechanics, assign roles, and prepare you for the campaign.

There will be 6 sessions, all running the same one-shot, throughout SimuCon. This is a sign-up event, which will include a set of dice and several hand-outs.

DragonRealms' Mazrian, Irenos, Miskton, Ben, Melindrha, and Gemstone IV GM Thandiwe will each be a Dungeon Master for one of the sessions of this exciting event. Be sure to sign up for the fun at the Box Office Under SimuCon 2023 for DR Attendees – D&D One-Shot Game!

This is a sign-up event, so be sure to sign up for the fun at the Box Office Under SimuCon 2023 for DR Attendees – Sip and Paint, miniature painting!

====SimuCon Side Quest: Dungeon Mayhem====

Based upon iconic Dungeons and Dragons characters, but with a comical twist, this deck-based game involves beating the other players to be the ultimate winner!

Each game can host 12 players. Players can pick from either heroes or monsters with choices like:

'''Heroes:''' Sutha the Skullcrusher (barbarian), Azzan the Mystic (wizard), Lia the Radiant (paladin), Oriax the Clever (rogue), Shapeshifter Jaheira (druid), and Minsc the ranger with his hamster friend Boo.

'''Monsters:''' Lord Cinderpuff (a banker dragon), Hoots McGoots (circus owlbear), Dr. Tentaculous (therapist mind flayer), Blorp (hungry gelatinous cube), Delilah Deathray (narcissistic beholder), and Mimi LeChaise (a mimic).

====SimuCon Side Quest: Blindfolded PvP (DragonRealms Only)====

Team up with a friend and take part in this hilarious and fun In-Game event where you and your friends battle in PvP Combat with a twist! One person sits in the chair before their own laptop, completely blindfolded, while their partner directs them on what actions to take as they face off against another in head-to-head battle!

Each team of two must bring their own laptop. May the best team win!

====SimuCon Side Quest: Once Upon a Time====

Joins us for laughs and creative thinking as we play the Card Game “Once Upon a Time.” This fun game has everyone working cooperatively to tell a fairytale story, while secretly steering the story towards their own ending.

One person is the Narrator, ensuring that the story flows and the cards are used correctly, while the rest of the players draw, deal, and play storytelling cards.

SimuCon 2020

Cancellation

On March 26th, 2020, it was announced that SimuCon 2020 was canceled.

Hi friends,

We've gone ahead and made the very difficult decision to cancel SimuCon this year. I know it's a long way off still, but we feel it's the best thing to do for our playerbase and everyone's families and friends. We're giving you as much advanced notice as possible so you can do what you need to do with any resources you may have devoted to SimuCon, like airfare or hotel reservations or vacation time.

We're still going to offer non-attendee goodie bags (the in-game swag) and put the funds raised from that into the budget for SimuCon 2021. In addition, we're looking at how we can livestream some events, like round table discussion and the State of Elanthia. We'll keep you posted about how we decide to handle that when it gets a little closer, but the plan is to do at least the SoE when it would have been scheduled in St. Louis.

Main Events & Side Quest Announcement

SimuCon Main Events: Live Alterations

Back again this year, there will be two sessions per day on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday where you will be able to sit with a GameMaster and get an alteration done. Look for posted GM names when our schedule is solidified!

SimuCon Main Quest: Roarin’ 20’s Themed Casino Night!

Join us in the main room for an exciting and fun Roarin’ 20’s Costumed (or Casual!) Event as we dive into a Speakeasy to play Craps, Texas Hold ‘em, Roulette, Blackjack, and 3-card Poker! Elite Events will be providing this entertainment for us, while Simutronics will be providing the funny money for the games. There will be prizes and purchases that can be made with your earnings! Come ready to play!

SimuCon Side Quests: Jackbox Games

During SimuCon, we’ll be hosting a Jackbox Party. Attendants will enter a raffle to see if they are a player in the game. We’ll run several rounds this way, and then all the winners will have a head-to-head battle to see who reigns supreme!

We will be using one of the SimuCon Breakout Rooms for this event and anyone not playing gets to be in the audience!

Non-attendees watching on Twitch will also get to be part of the audience!

Don't know what Jackbox Games are? Here's a handy link: Jackbox Games

SimuCon Side Quest: D&D

Whether you are a seasoned veteran of the game or have never played before, this fun session based in Elanthia is open to all! There will be a ZERO Session to help you understand the basic mechanics, assign roles, and prepare you for the campaign.

There will be 6 sessions, all running the same one-shot, throughout SimuCon. This is a sign-up event, which will include a set of dice and several hand-outs.

DragonRealms' Mazrian, Irenos, Miskton, Ben, Melindrha, and Gemstone IV GM Thandiwe will each be a Dungeon Master for one of the sessions of this exciting event. Be sure to sign up for the fun at the Box Office Under SimuCon 2023 for DR Attendees – D&D One-Shot Game!

SimuCon Side Quest: Sip & Paint

Join us for a Sip (BYOB) and Paint session at SimuCon where you will get to paint a Dragon Miniature to bring home with you! Sit with fellow players and GMs for this engaging experience. This is a sign-up event, so be sure to sign up for the fun at the Box Office Under SimuCon 2023 for DR Attendees – Sip and Paint, miniature painting!

SimuCon Side Quest: Dungeon Mayhem

Based upon iconic Dungeons and Dragons characters, but with a comical twist, this deck-based game involves beating the other players to be the ultimate winner!

Each game can host 12 players. Players can pick from either heroes or monsters with choices like:

Heroes: Sutha the Skullcrusher (barbarian), Azzan the Mystic (wizard), Lia the Radiant (paladin), Oriax the Clever (rogue), Shapeshifter Jaheira (druid), and Minsc the ranger with his hamster friend Boo.

Monsters: Lord Cinderpuff (a banker dragon), Hoots McGoots (circus owlbear), Dr. Tentaculous (therapist mind flayer), Blorp (hungry gelatinous cube), Delilah Deathray (narcissistic beholder), and Mimi LeChaise (a mimic).

SimuCon Side Quest: Blindfolded PvP (DragonRealms Only)

Team up with a friend and take part in this hilarious and fun In-Game event where you and your friends battle in PvP Combat with a twist!

Each team of two must bring their own laptop. May the best team win!

SimuCon Side Quest: Once Upon a Time

Joins us for laughs and creative thinking as we play the Card Game “Once Upon a Time.” This fun game has everyone working cooperatively to tell a fairytale story, while secretly steering the story towards their own ending.

One person is the Narrator, ensuring that the story flows and the cards are used correctly, while the rest of the players draw, deal, and play storytelling cards.
