Howdy All,
My game was approved (late arrival) for this Labor Day Weekend's Celesticon.
The game can be found here, and runs 2 - 6 pm on Sat, 8/30.
From Port Blackheart, With Love
Without a High King, political and moral instability continue to plague the Keranak Kingdoms. The old King dealt aggresively with the troublesome pirates of the Sea of Stones, but now they grow bold. Agents of the Blue Heron merchant company hire your band of troubleshooters to investigate the loss of their latest vessel. All leads point to the notorious Port Blackheart.
About this Game: “From Port Blackheart, with Love” uses the BareBones Fantasy game system, a simple but flexible d100 (percentile) based engine by DwD Studios. I think it has a great mix of old and new school mechanics, beginner-friendly, and is released under Creative Commons license.
Sounds like fun. Please, please, let us know how it goes. Bill wants to play the adventure.

I'll try to gather my thoughts and give a report out. Then game went a full four hours - right until the very end - and was highlighted by riotous laughter and fun.
I had all 6 spots filled, and one additional person wanted in - so, 7 players in total. I used the pregens out of the book, and let the 7th create his own (a Sprite ... a Leadership heavy Sprite).
Let me just say: "Likes expensive clothes" won the show for best descriptor. The way the wizard played that ... wow.
I was fortunate to have a great group of players. The game was a joy to run, although there was only one real combat in town, and the final encounter went down in the last 3 minutes of the game - everyone threw their Bones on the table, and I gave them each a single narration, and then wrapped it all up from there.
By the way, "From Port Blackheart, With Love" is just a renamed "High Seas and Blue Herons" from the Keranak Kingdoms. ;)
