INKYFINERS: January Update I
Hello, all! Good moldy paint cans? I forget! And Neville fought with slime? Should all men make sense with ergot, and old, long slime! Welcome to 2026 at the Arcanist's Tavern!
RIFT FAIRE
The Arcanist's Tavern will be making a special appearance at London Megacon in two weeks, as we unveil a new Rift Faire experience!
This immersive pop-up event will allow you to explore a mysterious village from beyond the veil filled with independent TTRPG creators, themed drinks, beginner friendly drop-in sessions and exclusive merch to uncover.
Our Tavern Game Masters will be running introductions to Dungeons & Dragons, Daggerheart, Call of Cthulhu, and a variety of other indie systems…
Starry-eyed adventurers, take heed: the elusive Guilds of Adrestia will be in attendance and recruiting new initiates. If you have a passion for mortal peril and blind unwavering loyalty, then they may just offer you the chance to prove yourself.
The Rift Faire will be open from 24-25 Jan. Keep an eye on our socials for further announcements, vendor spotlights and game schedules!
TICKETS AVAILABLE
Tickets for our February sessions are now available! Be sure to snag your Quest Board tickets, if you're playing in the Aeturnum campaign, or if you're looking for somewhere to start, our D&D Beginners, Daggerheart Beginners AND Blood on the Clocktower Beginner-friendly sessions bookings are all open! Tickets and more info are available on the site.
CANDLEKEEP CHRONICLES
Standing atop a rocky crag overlooking the Sea of Swords, the massive citadel of Candlekeep has endured the elements for centuries and defied the degradations of time. It holds the largest repository of written lore in Faerûn, including the collected prophecies of an ancient sage named Alaundo the Seer. Those compiled divinations make up a tiny fraction of the accumulated knowledge and secrets contained in the library’s vast collection…
Join us for a multi-part adventure, as you uncover lost tales from the forgotten depths of Candlekeep. Your work as a research assistant to the citadel's scholars will see you traversing distant planes in search of long buried secrets. Candlekeep Chronicles is a reimagining of the classic adventures from Candlekeep Mysteries.
Please note, this is a multi-part event running on Tues 03 Mar, Tues 10 Mar and Tues 17 Mar.
Your ticket will get you access to all three sessions for the month.
Guided by one of our veteran House GMs, each adventure will take place over three weekly sessions, with the opportunity to level up at the end of each arc! This anthology-style campaign will take you all the way to Level 16 as you embark upon a series of perilous adventures.
Our next quest will be The Book of Inner Alchemy, for Level 12 adventurers. More I
TAVERN QUIZ
The monthly Tavern Quiz will once again take place on the final Monday of the month, this time being Mon 26 Jan. Tavernkeeper Ringo will fire barbed knowledge-seeking darts directly into your cerebellum from 7pm, and the team who can fill the most darts with knowledge will win store credit! That's how quizzes work, right? Tickets are £3.50 on our site, and, space permitting, on the door on the night. Ringo has asked me to include the following statement: 'Michelangelo signed the Pietà'. I have no idea what that means.
CLOSURE
Please note that we will be closed all day for a private function on Saturday 31 January.
AETURNUM: THE FINAL SPECIALS
With the Season of the Witness, our story finally draws to a close.
Tickets will be going live shortly for our final two Narrative Events of the Masquerade Arc: THE PROMISE and SO BELOW. Tickets for our final Quest Board will then follow! We’ll be sharing more details about these upcoming events shortly, so watch this space for further updates.
Until next time!
I.
