Expect a non-traditional phenomenal gaming experience that upholds our values of creating a safe, inclusive, creative, and considerate environment. Our culture focuses on smooth story flow and a “Yes, And” GM style. We will be offering various tabletop RPGs and systems such as CY_BORG, Savage Worlds, Coyote and Crow, Swyvers, and many more.

FWD RPG

FWD (Forward) RPG is a group of like-minded Game Masters who love all kinds of RPGs, and want to see lesser-known/played TRPGs see the light of day at cons, gamedays, game stores, private homes, online, and wherever else we can run them. We operate based on 3 tenets:

1. We run games besides D&D
2. We're always willing to teach the games regardless of your experience level
3. We use a "Yes, And" GM style rather than a "Gotcha" GM style

Code of Conduct

This day is going to be a fun time for all attendees. Most of us are friends, and we trust each other. Having said that, FWD RPG would be remiss if we did not advise all attendees of our Code of Conduct. Upon receipt of your badge, each attendee is acknowledging the acceptance of this expected code of conduct. (Legal guardians of minors attending the event will assume responsibility of said minors to do the same.) Let’s keep this convention a fun, friendly, and safe environment!

Our code of conduct (CoC) is located here.

Ticket Sales

Ticket Sales will go live on Saturday, February 15 at 12 noon Central time. Be sure to check out our games in the schedule to grab your event tickets when they're available!
