Join us for an exclusive playtest of Fatefully Tragic Hero—a dark fantasy, anime-inspired tabletop RPG where heroism and tragedy walk hand in hand.

When: Tuesday, March 26th, 7:30 PM
Where: Is/Was Brewing — 5121 N Ravenswood Ave, Chicago, IL 60640

This special one-shot will feature a never-before-seen adventure—the same scenario that will be given away at Gen Con 2025—but you'll have the chance to experience it first, months before anyone else.

In Fatefully Tragic Hero, you play as a Reincarnation—someone who has died in one world and awoken in Aetheria, a realm scarred by the fall of its last great champion. As you grapple with your new heroic path and the gods’ expectations, you'll face impossible choices, forge fragile alliances, and uncover the dark forces pulling the strings behind the world’s unraveling.

This playtest will push the limits of the game’s core mechanics—testing its fast-paced combat system, Heroic Path abilities, and the emotional weight of its Resonance Points. It’s not just about strategy—it’s about how your choices shape the story and the world around you.

Why attend?

• Be the first to experience a brand-new Fatefully Tragic Hero adventure.

• Be the first to try the newest version of Fatefully Tragic Hero!

• Help shape the final game—your feedback will directly impact the upcoming campaign test this August.

Whether you're a veteran playtester or new to Fatefully Tragic Hero, this is your chance to step into the world of Aetheria and test your resolve.

Spots are limited—sign up now and be part of the story before it’s told.
