Gen Con 2017 Tournament – 2 Rounds
Nascrag Presents: A Little Madness Now and Then
(Character Sheets) <— Updated 8/6/2017!!! (Sign-in Sheet)
Six strangers wake to find themselves inmates in a bizarre asylum. Escaping their captivity is only the beginning as the Great Old Ones stir in their slumber, roused by dark rituals in the night. Porcine disease and even stranger things stalk the land as society collapses. Mr. Pig is not to be trifled with.
Horror meets humor in Nascrag’s 38th consecutive year at Gen Con. Our heroes include a Gunslinger, a Gearhead, a Witch, a Viking, a Monk, and an Alien who band together to fight the horror with good role-playing, bad jokes and a whole lot of fun. Featuring original art by Indy Bill Cavalier.
The Nascrag tournament is a two-round, team advancement Pathfinder event. The qualifying rounds are on Thursday 1 pm and 7 pm, Friday 1 pm and 7 pm, and Saturday at 1 pm. The Finale (by advancement only) will be at 7 pm on Saturday. Afterwards (11 pm) Tom Lommel (aka the Dungeon Bastard) will bestow honor, glory, and a gigantic pile of prizes at our annual Award Ceremony / Party.
* Note: This year’s authors are Jason Smith and Jennie Stanchfield, authors of the Stolen Lives Series of Nascrag adventures. Jason is also the co-author of the Cult of Yex series of novels.
** Note: Captain Ambivalent and his Accordion of Gold will be performing selections from his new Album; “Save the Orcs!” at our Award Ceremony / Party. **

Time Change Announcement (1 pm and 7 pm daily!)
We love our players at NASCRAG. We really do. We’ve said it many times but we do what we do because you folks are so much (darn) fun.
We’ve heard from more than a few of you that the 9 pm slots are just too late. And Thursday’s are crazy for us. We have a 1 pm judges meeting followed by 5 pm – 1 am straight through!
So to fix this we thought “why not just run at 1 pm and 7 pm every day?” The naysayers shouted ( as naysayers often do) “But then we could eat dinner!” “And we’d be getting too much sleep!” In the end we decided if it made the players happy it would make us happy too.
From now on NASCRAG will run it’s events at 1 pm and 7 pm on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (Saturday 7 pm would be the Tournament finale only).
