What is Numina like?

Daring Deeds! Spooky Monsters! Bold brave heroes fighting against the odds for what’s right.

You arrive on site Friday afternoon or evening and show your proof of vaccination to our logistics staffer at check in. Get any last minute questions answered. Get in costume and get settled in your cabin.

Before we start there is a pre-game announcements meeting in or near the tavern when game runners go over important info and answer questions.

New players start their first few events on a special “new player mod” (we call adventures players have “modules” or “mods”) where you’ll meet other players who are “young at heart” and get your first taste of taking part in boffer combat.

Game usually begins around 10pm or so on Friday night. Everyone is in character the entire weekend though there are always a few people around who will be flexible to help answer out of game questions. The big event of Friday evening is usually finished by 1am or so - some people stay up later than that

Saturday breakfast is at 10am and Dinner at 6pm - again the big “town fight” (a module where all players participate at once) is usually finished by 1am or so. Most adventures throughout the event won’t include all players at the same time as there are usually multiple things happening at once - all with smaller groups. These smaller adventures (mods) take place throughout the day and parts of the night, but not during meals. NPC will visit to talk and share information. Players who stayed up late the night before might find time for a nap.

Sunday’s breakfast is at 10am and typically followed by one more adventure that involves all players. The game is called off around midday, followed by clean up tasks.
