Message: <blockquote data-quote="pedr" data-source="post: 5167240" data-attributes="member: 33464">If you choose to play Living Forgotten Realms adventures, you can only play a character which was created as an LFR character and has only played in LFR adventures. In other words, unless you play before the convention, the only listed/scheduled LFR games you'll be able to play are the three MINI adventures.As I understand it, RPGA HQ will try to match players to LFR GMs willing to run LFR adventures, so if you point out to a marshal that you only have a 1st (or second, after the MINI adventures) level character they'll try to find you more games for it. Usually I'd suggest you find a local group to start playing LFR with before GenCon, but actually this year the scheduled/planned games are either for characters of levels 1-4 (the MINI adventures) or characters of much higher level, and you'd have to work very hard to get to 11th level with an LFR character between now and GenCon, unless you're playing a lot!So the RPGA pick-up games are not ones where you can drop in any character you happen to have played locally - you would have to have levelled the character up in the LFR system to play. I only know that the Ravenloft adventure is characters provided because I'm (just) enough of an RPGA old-timer that I know that 'Classic' means 'provided characters' in RPGA-speak. The GenCon catalogue doesn't do a great job in communicating the details of the RPGA, but the net's full of people who can help navigate its oddities, so do keep asking questions! There's a whole message-board of RPGA people here: <a href="http://community.wizards.com/go/forum/viewcategory/75854/RPGA" target="_blank">RPGA forums</a> who can help with any other questions you've got. One other note - remember that if you only get to play MINI2-1 at the convention, you will, at some point later in the year, be able to play it elsewhere, or even in a virtual chatroom/tabletop over the Internet, as Living Forgotten Realms is a world-wide persistent campaign. If you need help finding local or online people to play with, or want to set up a group to play RPGA adventures, get in touch here or on the WotC forums. Have fun! (I'm jealous. I'm stuck on the wrong side of the Atlantic!)</blockquote>
