This is Gunstock: Deathcon 2025 NY
On certain years, the town of Gunstock fills with traders, hunters, entertainers, and travelers during the height of Midsummer. They gather together to hunt the raider tribes that flock there for “DeathCon,” ready to harvest their parts for drugs, elixirs, and more.
While the hunt continues, others descend on Gunstock for further gains. Pop-up bars, entertainers, musicians, religious zealots, and others ply their trades in order to turn a profit.
This time, though, there’s something wrong with the town of Gunstock. The Raiders have begun to swarm, but they seem to be avoiding one, particular area – a place where zombies loom and the fetid smell of rot wafts on the breeze. Now, Grave Divers plan to get to the root of the problem before it becomes something catastrophic. But more worrying still is the idea that the two may be related – that, perhaps, something has always lurked – waiting for its moment.

The Violence at Gunstock
Not only are Raider hunts a staple of Gunstock, but the recent issue with the Mortis means that Grave Divers have begun to swarm. Clearly, there will be a lot for visitors to do this year…especially as the violence spreads outward.
During the day, hunters and fighters alike gather to test their mettle against the makeshift Raider encampments just outside the town of Gunstock. They gather teams to go out and gather Raider parts for profit, and to support various factions that may just have their own goals.
Just remember: Raiders are brutal, and there is no glory without risk.
Raider Hunts
At night when the world grows calm, the undead grow restless. Grave Divers gear up to enter the Mortis — a place of death where they may not come back the same.
Gunstock is suffering from a Corrupted Morgue — an issue that needs to be dealt with before it rises to the surface and unleashes hell upon the town. Brave teams have decided to enter death itself in order to clear it out…and potentially learn more about the mystery of why it’s formed in the first place.
