TridentCon 2017

TridentCon is an RPG convention happening on Nov. 11 & 12 in Baltimore. An adventure I wrote will be part of the convention-exclusive content available to play: "CCC-DDT-01 The House At Weeping Quay
Tier Two (Lvl 5-10). A premiere con-created DDAL adventure for TridentCon! In his melancholy, the bard has unleashed something horrible...dare you set foot in this accursed house of madness and murder? A gothic mystery adventure saluting Edgar Allan Poe." 
Suffice to say that if you like my particular brand of Gothic Fantasy, and like spotting allusions to some classic American Gothic literature, you're probably going to have a grand old time.

If that doesn't move you, I am assured that there are going to be plenty of games on offer no matter what your favorite flavor of gaming happens to be. Here's the scoop from Erik Jensen, the conference organizer:
