Hello Forge users! A cool new event for fans of Foundry VTT is taking place soon, starting May 19th, 2023, to May 21st 2023. Say hello to FoundryCon, the first virtual fan convention for Foundry VTT, hosted by the /r/FoundryVTT subreddit in partnership with Foundry Gaming.
GM Signup
FoundryCon 2023 has opened up sign up for GMs wishing to run during the convention. Sign up will be open until May 15th, 2023. Interested in running a game? You can sign up here.
Beyond the joy of running games for others and meeting new people, GMs will get the chance to win prizes and gifts from several sponsors. This includes us, The Forge.
GMs can reach out during sign up to recieve complimentary hosting from The Forge for the duration of the event. Participating GMs will also have the chance of winning various prizes and coupons from the loot table below. This includes a $50 gift card for those who roll a critical success! We want to encourage people to not only participate, but help contribute toward making one of the coolest fan conventions possible for the Foundry VTT community.
The Loot Table
Giving out prizes is fun, but deciding which prizes to give is not! So instead, we're letting Fate decide.
Each participating GM will get a chance to roll on The Forge's loot table and receive the prize that the dice gave them. After the event, we'll set up a game with a roll table that you can join and roll from. Roll a d8, and see what you've won!
