Thanks for the update. I certainly plan on going again next year. I had a blast in 2015.

My wife is due in December, so unfortunately with a newborn I doubt I'll be able to make it to Arcanicon this year.

I should be able to make it. Our cruise is in February next year

As we're taking the better part of 2 weeks off in January to get married, I do not think that we'll be able to make this year unless a large sum of money comes our way. Alas!

We will be trying to make Origins, however.

Have the powers that be decided on the in-game location or theme for Arcanicon 2016? I recall some discussion of an Auxunite fortress but I don't know if that's still on the table. I enjoyed the setting of Savona for this years con so another city would certainly be fine with me. Not sure I want to do a delve but that could be fun too. Something set in Plexus might be fun or Censure.

The last I heard was the Auxunite fortress, but that was also what Savona was going to be before it wasn't

I thought the same thing as well. I imagine things are still in the talking stage at this point which is why I wanted to throw out some ideas. I for one love the politics and culture of Censure which would be more about intrigue and investigation that say Savona. On the other hand Plexus should offer a more blank canvas to play with. Of course if we really want to go out on a limb we could have a con set in Whon....I still have some ideas for the Kingfisher mod I've been playing around with, but it's still in "development hell" to use a Hollywood term. That and I've not heard back from either Joe or Tony since I last emailed them on 23 July (assuming they got my email).

I had the thought that the rogue "Pillar of Fire" mentioned in the Origins LARP was on the plate as a possible site to be explored at Arcaniscon...

Hello,



Nope - I'm writing that as a Hard Point for next year's Origins, possibly.
