Now this had been a special appearance by these musicians to the Convention and so the lead guitarist had brought along his priceless collection of
1937 Reubenstein-Fender guitars both steel and with vacuum tubes.
The guitars all 6 of them had been lined up near the back of the stage with neon laser lights flashing on them as the guys in werewolf suits howled out their hit single.
Then of course a lightening bolt had blasted a hole in the roof and stuff happened.

Now you might be thinking that the Hooded Figure was some kind of sorceress,but in truth
Gallatea Crabbe had no magic,and was actually the genius who had
written the artificial intelligence software that had
brought Xecnathys to life in RPG games around the world.
The A.I. dragon RPG character had taken Gallatea 15 years to develop and she had started the project in 2004 when dragons were all the rage in RPG games.
Alas by the time Xecanasyths plug in A.I modules had been rolled out in 2017 dragons were out and horny sex crazed cat girl A.I.'s
with no emotions,no brains ( BIMBO Mk 1)
were the rage and no one wanted to buy a A.I dragon that knew Chaucer,Shakespeare and Ovid .
Which meant of course the manufacturer of the Xecanyths A.I. modules had been on the verge of bankruptcy as the Convention began.
In other words Gallatea Crabbe wasn't the only Mysterious Hooded Figure wandering the Convention floor that day pumping fists,uttering the immortal
words "Xecanyths,Get ready for the adventure of a life time" and slipping
a 50% off discount coupon into a potential clients coat pocket or Convention Bag.
Clearly the Powers-that-Be were still 15 years behind the RPG trends times.....
