Game Registration for Enbicon 2020 is live!! If there’s a game you want to run be sure to submit it! Due to the virtual nature of the convention we’ll be using Discord along with whatever supplemental digital tools the GM uses (for example I use Roll20 for my games).

GM Registrations Begin in April.
HEY FOLKS – WE’RE GOING TO BE GEARING UP VERY SOON FOR ENBICON 2020. STARTING IN APRIL WE’LL OPEN THINGS UP SO POTENTIAL GMS CAN REGISTER THEIR GAME. WE HAVE EXTRA SPACE FRIDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY, SO MORE GAMES!! WE’RE GOING TO HAVE DEDICATED SPACE SATURDAY NIGHT FOR 18+ GAMES AND A FEW OTHER NEW THINGS WE’RE TRYING.
Enbicon 2020
Quick update!
A few things we’re looking at for 2020.
- Having more space for both Friday night and Sunday. If we utilize the A and B Salons (currently we only use A on those times), this gives us another 1500 square feet of space on those days. It’s an increase of 75%.
- Moving the auction room/panel room to Salon F instead of D. So right across the hall from the main space as opposed to down the hall. This is a <slightly> smaller space (down 30 sq. feet) but the layout is different and feels larger. We feel the significantly better location is worth the 30 square feet.
- Saturday night we will have Salon C set aside for games that are specifically 18+. It is the only time we’ll be able to have a specific section for more mature games and we will only be scheduling those games at that time.
- Soon-ish we’ll have announcements regarding a new Volunteer Coordinator and a Marketing/PR Coordinator.
Thanks and looking forward to making 2020 a standout convention! Note – more space Friday and Sunday will mean a higher facility cost but we are going to make sure that we do everything possible to not increase ticket prices over the 2019 prices. As we go along we will have a working budget so anyone who’s curious as to where the money goes can simply ask. We want to be transparent for our attendees.
As a final note, with the new year, our organizers are now gearing up, getting to work on improvements, and pounding the digital pavement looking for new sponsors to make 2020 our best year yet, if you’d like to contribute in any way, please let us know. Submit!
Also if you don’t know our dates for 2020 are September 25-27th, the last weekend of September, Stay tuned for more to come!
Scheduling Changes.
Enbicon News
With small numbers/tickets sold we unfortunately had to cancel the DDEP08-02 “Stardock Under Siege” epic. In its place we will offer single adventures offered by the Epic DM/Admin Crew to be offered Saturday, September. 28th. Below is list of offerings:
Fai Chen: Saturday 11PM-12PM
Saturday 9 AM
Escape from Wheloon (lvs.1-4), 6 spots, Ryan Finn
The walled city of Wheloon holds the criminal population of Cormyr. The residents of that place are bound to it forever and cut off from the outside world. Inside, plans are made and malcontents pool their resources – and outside, forces influence the innocent to ensure that a dire plot can be realized without interference from the knights and mages that guard the realm. Now you’re here with no memory of what brought you to Wheloon, and all you can think of is finding out why!
Saturday 1PMFane of the Night Serpent (lvs. 5-10), 6 spots, Steven Hirtle
A curse has befallen the continent of Chult. Those that have died and have been raised, are now suffering a terrible wasting disease that does not respond to any known cure. Divine divination has pinpointed the source to a Yuan-Ti temple hidden beneath the Lost City of Omu. You are to infiltrate the temple, discover the plots of the Yuan-Ti and put an end to this curse.
Undermoutain: The Musical (tier 2 pregens, award applied to a tier 2 PC), 5 spots, Andrew Diagle
Minsc and his faithful ally Boo have seen much of the Forgotten Realms, and have been inspired by Volo to produce a guidebook detailing some of the more incredible things that they’ve experienced!
Red War: Housekeeping (lvs.11-16), 6 spots, Ryan Finn
The dawn of the final day arrives: The Red War looms on the horizon, and nothing can stop what is to come. But in those early hours before carnage begins, a group of adventurers are tasked with a covert operation to remove sensitive information left behind by the factions and sow subterfuge. Will internal and external influences keep them from completing their missions?
