It's seven generations since the world died, or so you've heard before. Humanity as it once was is gone. But you've heard of a man, known as the Publican, who is obsessed with restoring civilization to how it once was.

Welcome to the Bar at the End of the World, a post-apocalyptic pop-up bar and live-action role-playing event by Atlanta Drunks and Dragons and Dystopia Rising Georgia in collaboration with Joystick Gamebar.

Admission price gets you entry into the bar, allows you to participate in three scheduled events, entitles you to a complimentary first-time admission to a Dystopia Rising live-action RPG event, and if you come in costume you receive a free Hofbrau beer.

The Story

The Publican is the owner and proprietor of the Bar at the End of the World, a respite and oasis in the post-apocalyptic wasteland.

He is obsessed with recreating the perfect drink from the pre-fall world, thinking it to be the key to bringing culture and civilization back from the brink. Whether he succeeds or fails is up to you.

Finding the Bar

In the back room of Joystick Gamebar you'll find your contact who knows the location of the Publican's hidden bar. For a small bribe you can convince them to lead you there ($6.66 online, $10.00 at the door).

Everyone will receive an innoculation against zombie infection (not guaranteed to work) that will allow them to enter and exit the bar.

Anyone that looks like they can hold their own in a fight (has come in costume) will get a ticket for a complementary drink at the Bar at the End of the World - assuming they live long enough to use it.

Guests can enter the Bar at the End of the World starting at 7:00PM. Three events will happen at 7:30, 9:00 and 10:30. These events are open to all guests, but you may choose not to participate if you wish.

Events

The Great Hunt (7:30PM)

Starting at 7:30, the Publican will begin his search for the ingredients in his special cocktail. Anyone brave or foolish enough to help him can set out into the zombie-infested wastes in search of the neccesary components.

Every thirty minutes a new ingredient will be revealed. Guns and bullets will be available at the bar, and are free to trade among players.

Telling Visions (9:00PM)

The Publican needs a a Pristine Bar Set, untouched by radiation, to properly mix the drink. A member of the Church of Telling Visions is in possession of such a set, but will only give it to someone worthy.

Show your devotion by demonstrating your knowledge of pre-collapse movies and television to receive the set.

During this time the Zombie Pacification System will be active, allowing zombies to mingle with players at the bar. The ZPS functions using alcohol, so please buy the hardworking zombies a drink.

The Golden Beverage (10:00PM)

The Publican will begin mixing the drink. The ZPS system fails, and all infected players join the zombies in a final assault on the bar.

Either the survivors fend off the assault and the Publican finishes the drink, or the zombies overwhelm the survivors and destroy the bar.

So whether you assist the Publican in his mad quest, or just stand on the sidelines and watch the world burn, we hope you enjoy your time at the Bar at the End of the World.
