L001: "If You Find This, Assume the Worst" presented by Anne Ratchat. Adapted from Banana Chan's Golden Cobra LARP "They're Onto Me", "If You Find This, Assume the Worst" is an asymmetric larp where players enter the roles of a conspiracy theorist attempting to document an alien parasite slowly taking over their office and those coworkers. This is a lighter, satirical game that is welcoming for first-time larpers. This game is in late-stage playtesting. Video recording is a core mechanic in this game so must consent to be recorded. Said video may remain private after the game if players decide so. Thursday, 8:00PM - 12:00AM; One Round; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.
L002: American Freeform; "Hemophiliacademics" presented by Jacqueline Bryk. It is present day. Vampires are real. Vampires have been exposed publicly in the last year. Vampires now flock to academia for safety, a food supply, careers, and friends. Any vampire who does not get accepted into academia is fair game for hunters, priests, and mobs alike. You are a vampire, or a human, or a dhampir. You are either an interviewer on a panel for a private university, interviewing applicants for a brand new special vampiric graduate student program - or else you are being interviewed. All of you know this is a matter of life and death, as well as academic enrichment. A tense American Freeform LARP about academia, prejudice, and interviews. Thursday, 8:00PM - 12:00AM; One Round; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Serious, 18 & Over ONLY.

 L004: "War Birds: Model Protectorates" by Unruly Designs; presented by Brand Robins. Under the dominion of the Reich, the people of Denmark were forced to examine just how much they were willing to comply or resist the state of occupation. Family bonds were tested. Autonomy and sovereignty became primary concerns as much at home as in the streets. This is a game about resistance and control, freedom and protection, and the difficulty that comes from deciding not to model the behavior that is expected of you. Thursday, 8:00PM - 12:00AM; One Round; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Serious, 18 & Over ONLY. See Also: L041. THIS EVENT HAS BEEN FILLED!

Each character must convey a series of messages about their intimate experience to their partner without explicitly talking about it. To do this, players talk about the food and tea items as a metaphor for the sexual acts they participated in. Pass the Sugar, Please is part of "Honey & Hot Wax: An Anthology of Erotic Art Games, an upcoming anthology published by Pelgrane Press, with support from the Effing Foundation for Sex Positivity.

In 1977 fifty deaf children from across the country were brought together to an experimental school in Managua. Without a shared language to express themselves, the children did the only thing they could - they created one. In Sign, we follow a small piece of their journey. Taking on roles inspired by these children, players will develop their own sign language. Friday, 9:00AM - 11:00AM; One Round; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages. See Also: L066, L067. THIS EVENT HAS BEEN FILLED! You may sign up as an Alternate at the convention.
L007: "The Harvest Festival" presented by Marshall Bradshaw. The Harvest Festival is a high-transparency pastoral freeform game about interpersonal conflict and support networks, with elements of Stardew Valley, origami, sewing circles, and the glass box mechanic. Villagers have three days before the Harvest Festival, when they gift their handiwork to other members of the community as symbols of gratitude, forgiveness, or apology. Before then, players will have three rounds of origami-building and semi-privates scenes to set the stage for those handcrafted gifts to be either accepted or denied by those they care about on the big day. Friday, 9:00AM - 1:00PM; One Round; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Fun, All Ages.
L008: "Honor Bound" by Randy Lubin & Jason Morningstar; presented by Randy Lubin. A game about honor culture and toxic masculinity, through the lens of an old fashioned duel.

A LARP about the culture and customs of Beauty, and people in Beauty love to play with these customs. Sadly, as times grow harder we will have to ration our customs. It's okay, we are all in this together. Beauty explores social conformity, loss, and what happens when we can no longer communicate and show affection in the ways we used to. Will you accept rationing for the common good, or become non-compliant, welcoming ostracism for one last chance to sing against the darkness? Content list: Non-verbal, movement, wordless singing, dancing, physical touch (hands, shoulders, and face), deprivation, social pressure. Note: There is no forced touch in Beauty, but declining touch is an in-character (diegetic) action, and may upset other characters. Friday, 2:00PM - 6:00PM; One Round; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Serious, 18 & Over ONLY.
L011: "Pop!" presented by Lucian Kahn. POP! is about people who love and have sex with balloons. There will be no balloons and no sex in this game, but keep love in your heart. (Looners, as they often identify, are real people, and so are you. Take care.) Characters will spend an hour in Cyberspace, communicating through writing. Then, all the characters will meet in person, IRL, for half an hour. This game is kink-positive and queer-friendly. We bring you POP! at DREAMATION as a preview of "Honey & Hot Wax: An Anthology of Erotic Art Games" which will be published by Pelgrane Press in Spring/Summer of 2020.

In The Lesser Players' Tale, a grubby troupe of Renaissance actors take their best play, a racy tragedy, on the road. Along the way, they'll furiously adapt that play to the absurd whims of each new audience. Participants will perform The Lusty Queen (a sloppy, 10-minute adaptation of Racine's Phedre) many times as they scramble to master the material while holding their little family together across danger and opportunity. Note: Good acting is emphatically NOT required - there's no time for it in a ten minute play with improvised dialogue that includes: A treacherous plot to frame a good Prince for unspeakable deeds; A star-crossed romance and a stepmother's skeevy love for her skeeved-out stepson; A King who is dead...or is he?; Two brisk deaths at sea, witnessed by a clown; Adoption!

The drama is not limited to the walls of Aretuza, however, rumored as it is to be full of unethical experiments. Elven guerilla fighters are harrying the coastal fortress, demanding something.

L042: "Praying For The End of Time" presented by Chad Wolf. For members of the genderless vesper species of planet ML-1021, marriage is a biological process. After they are married, two people join hands and a biological process takes place which permanently joins the hands together. Until recently, if anything separated them, both vespers died. A new medical breakthrough has allowed two vespers to become separated surgically, and as long as both are joined to new partners immediately. The hope that this procedure brought for many unhappy couples was quickly dashed as governments around the planet placed onerous restrictions on the procedure. The government demands high fees and requires participants to meet through a government sanctioned speed dating event. Unlike most speed dating, this is a high stakes event. If two people match but their spouses do not find someone new, then the two that matched can force the surgery to happen, causing the death of their former spouses. Additionally, participants will have paid the price for the surgery, regardless of whether they find a new partner or not. Saturday, 10:00AM - 1:00PM; One Round; All Materials Provided. Beginners Welcome; Serious, 18 & Over ONLY.

During the game, the characters explore their own understanding of sexuality, challenge what they were told during "the talk," share knowledge, and apply that knowledge through a series of party games and organic conversations. The Sleepover is also about how we apply what we know about sex and gender in real situations. In the game, characters will navigate their comfort with intimacy and sex through various mini-games that are sometimes played at teen parties. This gives the characters a chance to experiment with how to communicate sexual interest, negotiate consent, and understand what sexuality means for them. This game affirms, explores, and celebrates queer sexuality and queerness. The Sleepover is part of "Honey & Hot Wax: An Anthology of Erotic Art Games", an upcoming anthology published by Pelgrane Press, with support from the Effing Foundation for Sex Positivity.
