Welcome to Origins!
Welcome to the 2019 Origins Game Fair! As the new Executive Director, I want to begin
by thanking the Board of Directors, the hard-working GAMA staff, our sponsors,
outstanding clubs, volunteers and GMs, special guests, and of course all of you who’ve
Show Info
come to this show and play games!
I’m excited to build on the programming we’ve offered year after year and the work of
those who founded Origins Game Fair 45 years ago. All your familiar favorites at
Origins are back again this year, plus some new and expanded events. The Exhibit Hall
is filled with more than 250 booths. Artist Alley is as strong as ever and we’ve expand-
ed the Origins Library program with sixteen writers in a new location on the main con-
Awards & Honors
course. And for the first time, we are offering the option to purchase a print or digital
copy of the Anthology.
We have tripled the amount of Open Gaming space to nearly 10,000 square feet and
6 have upgraded the play experience in the Board Room with neoprene gaming mats and
table coverings. In an effort to enhance the value of attending Origins, we have made
most of the workshops and seminars in the Origins University complimentary, expand-
ed the Quiet Room, added a new Family & Community Room with gaming and program-
ming aimed towards families, and partnered with Path to Path to offer a Sensory-
Friendly Gaming Room for those on the autism spectrum.
Programming
Guests of Honor this year include designer Elisa Teague, artist Lisa Sell, and authors
Mercedes Lackey and Larry Nixon. Other special guests include actors Charisma Car-
penter (Charmed, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Veronica Mars); Nicholas Bren-
don (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Criminal Minds); Juliet Landau (Buffy the
Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Doctor Who audiobooks); Wendy Padbury (Doctor Who and
Emmerdale), Frazer Hines (Doctor Who and Emmerdale), Gleume Cosplay, and Amanda
Robinson (3 Rivers Cosplay).
Other notable attendees include Czech game designer Vlaada Chvátl who created
Community
Codenames and fantasy artist and illustrator Gerald Brom who is well known for his
gothic artwork in role-playing games, card games, novels, and comics. The two of them
will be inducted in the Academy of Adventure Gaming Arts and Design Hall of Fame on
Saturday during the Origins Awards Ceremony.
Again, thank you for attending Origins and helping to make it one of the largest and
best gaming conventions in the world. With your help we can work together to fulfill our
vision of “A game on every table, a table for every gamer.”

Gerald Brom
Show Info
Born in the deep dark south in the mid-sixties.

Brom, an army brat, spent his entire youth on the
move and unabashedly blames living in such
places as Japan, Hawaii, Germany, and Alabama
for all his afflictions. From his earliest memories
Brom has been obsessed with the creation of the
weird, the monstrous, and the beautiful.
Awards & Honors
At age twenty, Brom began working full-time as a

commercial illustrator in Atlanta, Georgia. Three years later he entered the field
of fantastic art he’d loved his whole life, making his mark developing and illus-
trating for TSR’s best selling role-playing worlds. He has since gone on to lend
his distinctive vision to all facets of the creative industries, from novels and
games, to comics and film. Most recently he's created a series of award winning
horror novels that he both writes and illustrates.
Brom is currently kept in a dank cellar somewhere in the drizzly Northwest.

Contest Rules
Show Info
1. You must have purchased an entry into Origins Game Fair 2019 in order to enter/pre-
sent on stage for the Costume Contest.
2. The Costume Contest is a family-oriented event. Please keep all costumes to a

“PG-13″ rating (i.e. no nudity or overly revealing attire).
3. No bought costumes. Costumes must be 50% crafted or more. You may purchase
parts of a costume, but said parts must be disclosed during the judging process. If you
Awards & Honors

are not the maker of your costume (and simply modeling), said creator of the costume
must be present with you upon entry. If the costume wins an award, the award will go
to the creator of the costume.
4. All weapons and props must conform with Origins Game Fair 2019 rules, convention
center policies, and local laws concerning carrying a weapon. If there is a question of
doubt, don’t bring it (see Show Policies p.10).
Pride
5. Please provide reference images of the character you are dressed as. We cannot
guarantee the judges will know what your character looks like, so having something to
Programming
compare to will help you as much as them! Please provide this image on a piece of
paper to attach to your costume contest registration form. No digital images (i.e. cell
phones, iPads, portable computers, tablets, etc.) or books can be submitted for your
reference image. Please print the picture out for the judges.
6. Each costume must be entered separately. The costumes may be presented on

stage (and prejudged) together, but each costume is judged as a separate entry. Simply
put: the “Best of Show” award can only go to one individual and not a group.
Community
7. The contest will be limited to 50 entries total. Please be at Union Station Ballroom B
to sign up.
8. Origins Game Fair and Wasabi Anime reserve the right to modify, update, or amend
the rules at any time.

In Memoriam - Andrea Steyer
Origins Volunteer for over a decade
Awards & Honors
Andrea was born on April 15, 1981 and

spent her childhood in various parts of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Idaho. A love
of science and a sense of compassion
led Andrea to a career in nursing. She
was intensely curious and a voracious
reader, had an unparalleled love for
board games, cats, casinos, knitting,
Programming
travel, and the Pittsburgh Steelers, and

was an avid tabletop gamer and role-
player. Andrea spent a decade volunteering in Registration at Origins,
through which she met her husband Cory; they were married at the con in
2012. She also reunited with a high school crush, Adam, at Origins in 2011,
and the spark rekindled; they spent eight happy years together, and Adam
officiated hers and Cory’s wedding. She and Cory also met their mutual
partner, Jade, at Origins in 2011 completing her eclectic family. We were

all saddened and shocked in the late summer of 2018 when Andrea was
diagnosed with angiosarcoma. Although she fought hard, the cancer
moved faster than anyone expected, and Andrea passed away on Novem-
ber 17th, 2018, surrounded by her partners, friends, and family. Andrea
brought love, laughter, and an infectious spirit of joy to everyone whose
life she touched, and this memorial can only scratch the surface of the
beautiful soul that she was.

Love the Board Room at Origins Game Fair? Then you already
know what Buckeye Game Fest is like. The same people that
bring you the highly successful Board Room at Origins, bring
you Buckeye Game Fest. It’s more relaxed, slower paced, and
more club-like than your regular gaming con experience.
