You Are Cordially Invited
Honored Friends, Enemies, and those who count themselves among both,
Queen Mab cordially invites you to attend a weekend celebration within her beautiful Realm. Enjoy the Queen of Air and Darkness' Hospitality as we witness her dear niece's wedding to the mortal kith Antonio Rossi.
This is a time for bitter rivalries to be set aside, old friends to reunite, and new paths to be forged. Celebrate with confidence that only the condemned would upset such joyous accords. The first night shall be a revelry of the like not seen since the turn of the century. Formal business with Winter, or others if so inclined, may be pursued on the second night of the gathering.
Come celebrate the cycle of Birth, Bonding, and Death.

The letter strikes a chord in deep places where fear resides. The Winter Court celebrating the marriage of the Summer Lady's Changeling twin sister... and to mortal blood no less. What mess are the Fae making now?
​
Everyone is still reeling from the ravages of the Great War. Mortal and supernatural alike are just starting to let loose in what is quickly being dubbed The Roaring 20's. If the Fae are true to form, the surface revelry will conceal a myriad of dangers and a sea of violence. A wise person would think twice, especially with attendees from vampires to mortal mob bosses... but it would be rude to decline such a polite invitation.
Come Play With Us
This LARP will take place 100 years ago in the Dresden Files universe
LARPs are a wonderful opportunity to show off amazing costuming, live in a world you've enjoyed via fiction, and create powerful scenes with deep emotions.
​
This game will feature characters from all walks of life, both fictional and historic. Players will take on the roles of Fae Queens, White Council members, scrappy independents, and even famous 1920's mobsters.
​
Tell stories of power, loss, sacrifice, and growth. Each player will receive a custom character written for their experience, goals, and motivations to drive their game, an NPC guide within their faction to provide support during play, and the freedom to pursue a story they will be able to tell tales of for years to come.
​
Jim Butcher, author of the Dresden Files series, will be consulting with our writing staff to help bolster the story, and will be available to sign books after the final game.
