Chicago – Media personality, content creator, podcast host and TTRPG influencer Cate Osborn – known to fans and friends more informally as Catieosaurus – is set to make her way to Gen Con 2022 in Indianapolis as a featured guest during the long weekend of August 4-7th.<\/p>\n
The original, longest-running and busiest gaming convention in the world for fans and trade exhibitors will shine a spotlight on Osborn as she attends to make several interview and actual-play guest appearances and to raise awareness for neurodiversity and disability in TTRPG spaces.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am thrilled to return to GenCon to see old friends, make some new ones and share my experiences with like-minded gaming fans that made the trip to the Indiana Convention Center for The Best Four Days in Gaming,\u201d said Osborn.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year I am particularly excited to be asked to run a one-shot of Epidiah Ravachol\u2019s award-winning horror-based game, Dread. The game will be played live onstage in ICC 101 and streamed to GenCon\u2019s Twitch channel. Most importantly, we\u2019ll be fundraising for The Trevor Project: a not-for profit that focuses on suicide prevention efforts among LGBTQIA+ youth. The audience will have the opportunity to donate in order to affect what happens in-game, so it should be a really fun and entertaining evening!\u201d<\/p>\n
Cate\u2019s popular DnD character, Newt Inline, will be making a triumphant return to the stage on Friday at 12pm for the Stars of TikTok Dungeons and Dragons One Shot. \u201cIt\u2019s an incredible group of creators- I\u2019ll be sharing the stage with Markeia McCarty, Haley Whipjack, Nur-D, OneShotQuesters, Erik Gude, Kurt Wise, ThatGreyGentleman and our DM, Dicecream Sandwich.<\/p>\n
