The biggest annual event from the Waikato Role-Playing Guild is returning this September: Convergence!

The Waikato Role-Playing Guild will be bringing you an epic weekend of role-playing, giveaways, and banter, capped off with a social function on Sunday evening. 

What is a TTRPG?
Table top role-playing games are mostly played with friends, and usually require pen, paper and dice to play. You have probably heard of Dungeons & Dragons, but thousands of different systems exist. From simple romps to complex campaigns games can cover topics such as drag racing racoons, eldritch horrors, sci fi, fantasy, dystopias, TV shows, and even Carly Rae Jepson. They all need the players to use their imagination to drive the story and make the game come alive.

What is Convergence?

Convergence is a two day games convention, organised by The Waikato Role-Playing Guild. The aim is to give new and experienced players a chance to meet like minded people, make new friends, try new games and have a blast doing so. At Convergence there will be games running, seminars, socialising, and vendors providing a range of gaming related equipment.

The games will run in 3 and 4 hour slots, depending on the game itself. All the games will be run as “one-shots” meaning it will be a self-contained adventure within the time slot. There will be games for newbies and experienced players alike. Pre-generated characters will be provided where needed. The Waikato Role Playing Guild will make sure you have everything you need to hit the ground running and have a fantastic weekend!
