Story

Galik's first dungeon crawl, as seen from DM Mike's table

For more about the actual in-world event, see The Naga's Glaik of Galik

Galik (DM Mike)

At DM Mike's table, players were taken in a large-scale dungeon crawl through a large portion of Galik to reach a temple deep in the city where the Naga was psionically anchored, meaning it was immortal unless the temple's pillars could be destroyed.

Along the way they fought snakes and spiders and all manner of fodder meant to slow them down and keep them from getting to the temple.

Krunch's Head (DM James)

At DM James' table, the players were taken through 5 different "Tower Defense" style combats, where the heroes needed to protect a tortle named Captain Krunch, while the Naga twisted and distorted the world, taking them through 5 nightmare traps. This was where they could finally kill the Naga for good, but only if the team at DM Mike's table had reached the temple and destroyed the 4 pillars/anchors.

Attendees

Most notably, QuelmarCon 2021 was the first (and so far only) time that players or dms from every single Quelmar campaign up to that point had gathered in one place. The campaigns that had reps attending included:

Sick of this Shit (2 in attendance)
Towson Tabletop (6 in attendance)
SOTS Inc (3 in attendance)
Chronepsis Campaign (2 in attendance)

The Underdungeon (3 in attendance)

Secondary Characters (14 in attendance)
Tails of Quelmar (5 in attendance)
Brightwater (4 in attendance)
Another One Bites the Dice (3 in attendance)
Ancients Alive (11 in attendance)
>Get Submodule (7 in attendance)

Other Games

While the first convention was structured around a single massive day-long adventure, having everyone in one place also meant some spontaneous gaming was able to also happen that weekend.

IRL Brightwater Session

Typically an online campaign, DM Kevin was able to wrangle the whole team for their first (and only?) in person Brightwater game.
