Arcanacon XV

Special Guest... Special Event...

Arcanacon XV is proud to welcome Liam Routt as a Special Guest.

Liam first became a part of the local roleplaying scene in the early 80's, attending several Phantastacons as the youngest AD&D Dungeon Master. He left AD&D behind to write and run scenarios for RuneQuest and eventually Call of Cthulhu with the Cthulhu Conglomerate, and was a regular face at local conventions as a result.

Over the last decade he has made his own small mark on the roleplaying industry at large. In 1992 he started his own company, Darcsyde Productions, to release the English translation of a French roleplaying game, TRAUMA, and Chaosium have published his scenarios for both Call of Cthulhu and Nephilim.

In August 1996, Liam was offered an Associate Editor position by Chaosium when, following the success of their Mythos CCG, they were in a position to expand their staff. He is now responsible for both the Elric! and Pendragon lines.

Outside of roleplaying, Liam works as a research programmer at Melbourne University, and plays bass in the local and obscure band, The Power Trio.

Liam will be presenting seminars on Chaosium’s future directions, with emphasis specifically on Pendragon and Elric. If there is sufficient interest, he will also talk about the Mythos CCG.

If you are interested in attending Liam’s sessions, please indicate this on the entry form or at registration. There will be no charge for these seminars, which will be scheduled at the Convention according to demand.
