I-CON 22 proudly continues its tradition of finding cutting edge Live Action Role Playing Games to their fabulous line up of events. At I-CON we choose our guests based on their reputations for excellence. Nothing compares to the rush of actually being one of the main characters in an epic adventure. This year we are working on a lineup that will give players the opportunity to experience just about whatever they desire...
Vampires lurk in every shadow, will you be one of them, their prey, or their destruction? Can you find the mystery to save yourself and your companions from an insidious horror that threatens the very existence of man? Are you brave enough to sneak into a dungeon full of skeletons to find the ultimate prize? Do you have what it takes to go into a radiation storm, and risk your life against mutants to fix the power station that keeps your colony alive?
