Many and various worlds await. There will be adventures for the thrill seekers and challenges for the brave. Some games will test your combat skills. Others will test your strategy and teamwork. Join us and our Guest of Honor, Jody Harkavy, the RPG Guide at About.com as we travel through time and space, myth and history.

RPG Guest of Honor: Jody Karkavy

Imagine spending the entire weekend playing games and being able to say you were just doing your job. Imagine if it was your job to be an expert in roleplaying games. Pretty cool? Jody Harkavy has that dream job. She is the Roleplaying Game Guide at About.com, the search engine that uses real Human expertise to help you find what you need.

Jody Harkavy has reviewed every game you have ever played and many you have never seen. She has published articles about all aspects of roleplaying, from the basic explanations of what roleplaying is, to the complex world of setting up futuristic worlds, cultures and societies. She is coming to ICON to talk to our players and gamemasters, and she is bringing sample copies of games with her to give away as prizes.

Come meet Jody Harkavy and find out what it’s like to turn games into a dream job.
