HEY Y'ALL! I am oh so very tired and my funny brain is not working so excuse the lack of title but WELCOME TO ANOTHER NEWSLETTER! It's a chill week, not too much going on, but still an exciting newsletter! So, let's get into it!
❗ Announcements ❗
🎲 TABLETOP WEEKEND
Yes you heard right your favourite weekend of chaos is returning for WEEK 4. But wait, I hear our sweet new Freshers asking 'well whatever is Tabletop Weekend?' and that question I am here to answer! Tabletop Weekend is our bi-termly event where from 10am to 10pm on Saturday and Sunday you can join us in B2.02 to play games from any of our factions. Keep an eye out for discussions on discord as to what people are wanting to play / bring and get in on the action! Oh, and a little birdie told me that there may be something happening on the Friday too, so watch out for that!
📄 Change to Draft Sign Ups
Draft is changing their sign-up system for people to come and join each week. Instead of joining the event on the website, you must now vote on which draft set to be played in their separate discord, linked here. This vote determines which set will be played, but also classes as your sign up, so be sure to react to the message in the Draft Announcement channel (if you don't care what set is being played, there is an 'I don't mind' option.

💭 What happened last week? 💭
Last Week in RPGS!!
- Oops Almost all Gingers - Tasked with finding a serial killer's lair, the party kicks off their session by being ambushed by a hot dark purple lady, T'ssaia, who promptly kidnaps their contractor, Rynsyl. Naturally, they decide it's the perfect time to go shopping, hitting up shoe shops and bakeries before tackling the lair. Surprise, surprise—it’s T'ssaia’s, and her lab is just north of the city! Navigating through puzzle rooms and destroying flying trebuchet-style siege machines, the party eventually confront T'ssaia. Armed with a crackling glyph carving device and a skeleton army, T'ssaia proves tough. But with some struggle, the party eventually prevails, saving the city and Rynsyl!!
Last Week in LARP!!
Baron Thalass’ son, Sebastian had another bright idea. After the failure of Newseb two years ago, he went on a trek up the mountains for normal, non-petulant reasons. Our party was hired to track him down and bring him back. Along the way they encountered many creatures, such as wolves, exposition-giving birds and a bridge spirit who knew nothing. They encountered and slew the bear that attacked Sebastian, before following the young noble’s trail further up the mountain, where they fought husks and other voids weirdness, before locating and bringing home Sebastian.
A reminder that you are ALWAYS welcome to send your own highlights from any faction to the Highlights channel on our discord to be featured in the Newsletter!
Extra Bonus End Bit
Last week's 'Feldspar Buttons Firebreath III's Funky Beloved Fun (the obnoxiously named minigame)' Feldspar was of course hiding the 'Alien' RPG (which by the way is a BRILLIANT game and I highly suggest you play it). This week, our LARPers have a chance to show off, as Feldspar has gotten a hold of one of the names of a faction within the world of Duality and has scrambled it up. Can you figure out what it is?
