My Day at Origins (Deals, Dice, & DCC RPG)

Post by Rick »

Drove up to Columbus (just for the day) to check out the Origins Dealers Room (admission = $10 for me and my GF).

It was pretty much the same as its been the last several years: not as big a deal as GenCon, but well worth a 1.5 hour drive and $10.

What really made it worth it, though, was finding 12 piece GameScience dice sets (incl. d3, d5, d14, d16, & d24s) for $11 each (! :o ). I bought 2 (ruby & glow-in-the-dark) so I now have 3 sets. I'll get a couple extra d7s & d30s later.

The other equally cool thing was getting to meet DCC RPG cover artist Doug Kovacs. He had the original paintings for both front and back cover (yeah, I got to see a finished full color Hugh!) plus some of the upcoming adventure covers on display... amazing! I now have an agenda to one day own some original Doug Kovacs artwork.

Doug (like Joseph) is friendly and easy to chat with. He also signed a copy of the DCC RPG "Dig it!" poster and the Free RPG Day Adventure Starter for me.

Other than that, I got Vornheim (it's meant for LotFP, but I'll be looking to use it for DCC), a very cool new boardgame called Chaostle (Chaos + Castle), and a t-shirt
