We have been biting our tongues and keeping it in for the past couple months and we can't stand it any longer!
We just officially launched the pre-order for ROLEMODELS: The Battle for Vyk' Tornaahl, a limited-edition card game featuring all the incredible alter-egos from the 99 participating artists in our October exhibition! The deck is $25 and features 95 Hero cards, 4 Kingdoms, 1 handy rule card, a D20, and a small 100-page perfectbound book on the lore, land, characters and instructions on how to play the game.
We believe that the nuances of our personalities can be seen in the characters we choose to play. RPG games hold a special place in our hearts and for the upcoming ROLEMODELS exhibition, we've asked our creative role models to help show us their inner hero / heroine. From the righteous paladins, to the back-stabbing rogues --- ROLEMODELS brings you a look at the characters inspired by the personalities of the artists you know and love. While not a literal self-portait show, we find the decisions we make while crafting our characters to be very telling of how we see ourselves and who we long to be.

We will be unveiling a slew of interactive extracurriculars, gameplay videos and plenty of goodies around one of Light Grey's biggest shows of the year! The ROLEMODELS opening reception falls conveniently on HALLOWEEN WEEKEND - where we'll ask our patrons to come dressed in their best mail, share a flagon of mead (or ranger beer) and party with us while we nerd out IN COSTUME.
THE GAME:
The realm of Vyk'Tornaahl is in a state of flux. Heroes battle for power in a strategic game of gathering allies, defeating foes, bluffing competing champions and ultimately vying for the rule of the realm of Vyk' Tornaahl. ROLEMODELS: The Battle For Vyk' Tornaahl is an easy-to-play game for 2 to 4 players.
The deck is available for $25 and can be pre-ordered through Friday, October 25th. The games will be shipped after the opening reception.
