What

Once upon a time, we met in person at least once a year to play Exalted. Let's do it again.

Where

Dan's house in Melrose, MA (Get flights to Logan in Boston -- I can probably pick you up). We have room for everyone in my house:

  • Basement: 2 people (1 couch pulls out into a bed + 1 air mattress)
  • Guest room: 1-2 people (there's a bed, could fit an air mattress on the floor)
  • Nursery: 1 person (could fit an air mattress on the floor for anyone not weirded out by this)
  • Main floor: 2-3 people (couch could sleep 1 if you don't mind sleeping on a couch, could fit 2 air mattresses on the main floor)

When

August 18 - 21

What to Bring

  • If you have a Nintendo Switch or controllers for it, this will make the inevitable 7v1 Smash game against Dan easier to set up.
  • If you have a laptop that is gaming-capable, it may be useful depending on what we decide to play in between roleplaying sessions.
    • I have 2 reasonably powerful PCs (can run FFXIV and anything older/not super demanding), and maybe a 3rd that can squeak by for some games.

What will we play?

Exalted! Probably some form of Exalted Essence. To be specific:

  • Some continuation of the currently-active Hundred Kingdoms chronicle.

OR

  • A storyline set in the Linowan kingdom in the Northeast.

What else will we do?

  • Thursday:
    • People arrive, probably unpack at Dan's house, dinner at Lolita in Boston at 5 P.M.
    • Trillium after dinner, back to Dan's house at some point
    • Final character prep at Dan's house at night so we're ready for EXALTED
  • Friday:
    • EXALTED
  • Saturday
  • Sunday
    • Parting is such sweet sorrow
  • Unallocated ideas (obviously won't get to all these, here for reference)
    • Breakfast/Brunch at Iron Town Diner or Cibo Cafe (local)
    • Something in North End/Back Bay (Boston)
    • Grill out if weather is nice
    • FFXIV gambling watch party
    • Smash Tournament
