Phenomenon 2003

A roleplaying convention

Games

This is what Pheno 2003 has on offer. The games are divided into several categories:
The Triptych, Living Greyhawk, freeforms, team games, and special events.

There will be nine (9) sessions for scheduled games across the weekend, as well as a banquet, special events, and all the fun of post-Con drinkies (venue to be determined):

Triptych

Each year, three respected designers are invited to present a systemless single session game as part of a triptych. Each scenario emphasises characterisation, psychological realism and drama. Each game will be judged separately, but teams competing in all three games will also be eligible for the Triptych Perpetual Trophy.

• Psi — Mike Walker
• Can you go home again? — David James
• Silence — Ingrid Bean
