DEAR FURRY FRIENDS,
I would like to take th
his opportunitty to
welcome you to the 2015 edition
n of
FurryCon: A game of Con Ch
hairs
Season 2 War is com
ming. This iss the
second year
y
in a th
hree year the
eme
based on
n the HBO series Game
e of
Thrones.
We at FurryCon
F
prid
de ourselves for
immersion
n in theme. Therefore
T
you
u will
see thingss referred to differently
d
tha
an at
other con
nventions. For
F example, the
con chair is called the Paw of the King,
K
our regiistration lev
vels are Serfs
S
(attendee), Squires (atttendee + shirt), Knights (ssponsors), Ro
oyalty (super sponsors) an
nd Persons of
o Title
(limited ed
dition) or ourr House Lead
ders (guests of honor). While
W
we do things
t
differen
ntly (and hop
pefully
better) tha
an other conv
ventions, you
u as a conven
ntion attendee can expectt to see all off the typical things
t
the fandom has come to expect like
e, a con suite
e, dealers den
n, dances, pa
anels, fursuit games, and so on
whilst still maintaining our
o over arch
hing theme.
Game of Con Chairs was
w selected as a theme because
b
of the grand and epic nature of
o the story byy JRR
Martin. I felt that it pla
ayed well with
h the grand vision
v
that is FurryCon,
F
how
wever, it wass not feasible to do
for only one year. This has lead to
o us spreading
g the theme over
o
a series of three conventions, eacch the
same and
d building upo
on the previou
us year but each
e
unique in their own right. To my knowledge
k
thiis has
not been attempted before
b
by a convention
c
an
nd I am glad
d you have chosen
c
to be part of the grand
experimen
nt with us.
Last year I served dou
uble duty as the
t con chair and as king. The winner of last year'ss convention game
(more on this later in the
t con book)) SomaCat, won
w the privile
ege of being this year's king and I will serve
as Paw off the King (co
on chair).
A lot of ve
ery hard work
k, from a myriad of individu
uals, has gone
e into this pro
oduction for your
y
enjoymen
nt this
weekend. Please hav
ve fun and im
mmerse yoursself in the exp
perience as much
m
as you
u wish. but also be
ate to yourself and others by making su
ure you follow
w standard co
onvention etiq
quette such as
a the
considera
6-2-1 rule
e, know your limits (both ph
hysical and with alcohol) an
nd respect others wishes/p
personal spacce.
FurryCon would like to
o give a hearttfelt thank yo
ou to everyone that has made this weekend possible

F
Stafff, our volunte
eers, our rave
ens, panelistss, and lastly YOU
Y

hotel and their staff, FurryCon
for whom all this is for!
Have a grreat weekend!
P.S. TH
HIS IS THE MESSAGE
M
YOU HAV
VE BEEN LOOKING
L
G FOR!
HIS GRACE, SOMACAT, OF HOUSE TARGARYEN, FIRST OF HIS NAME,
KING OF THE ANTHROS AND THE FIRST FURS, LORD OF THE SEVEN
FANDOMS, AND PROTECTOR OF THE REALM WELCOMES YOU TO
FURRYCON™2015: SEASON TWO OF A GAME OF CON CHAIRS.
You are about to be part of another ground breaking convention, where one lucky attendee will become
the honorary chair of the next year’s convention. As the honorary chair, the winner will get a free room on
the staff floor, complete access to the 2016 convention, their character on the 2016 promotional product,
be able to provide input into some aspects of the convention, and the right to sit on the throne during
functions during the 2016 convention.
The more active you and your house are the better chance you have to win, however, it will still be
possible to do nothing but attend the convention and still win the game!
The winner will be chosen through the convention game by a two step process.
The First Step: Choosing the Ruling House
House Influence
The total house influence will be calculated from four parts of the game: panel attendance, tournaments,
the marketplace, and the War Room. Whichever house has the most points at the end of the convention
elevates their most personally influential member to be the new Con Chair!
Panel attendance
Each attendee at a panel will earn notoriety for their house by giving it a public face. But, naturally, if the
assembled public has no idea who the attendee is, it is of less value to the house! Houses will earn:
5 points for each Serf and Squire attending a panel
10 points for each Knight attending a panel
15 points for each Lord and Person of Title attending a panel
Tournaments
The tournaments are a place for attendees to prove their skills and put on a display of character for the
whole kingdom to see. Those who show themselves worthy earn not only personal glory but recognition
for their house and it’s capability to rule. Even the lowliest of serfs can attain notoriety by overcoming all
opponents and attaining an unexpected victory while the highest ranking of lords may find themselves
outperformed.
3rd place earns their house 15 points
2nd place earns their house 25 points
1st place earns their house 40 points
All participants in the tournament earn their normal house points for competing. But remember, those
with enough wealth can always put forward a wager for a rematch to upset the balance! Personal duels,
while fun for spectators, are not of sufficient notoriety for them to alter a house’s points. They will only
count for personal reputation.
The Marketplace
Central to any well-functioning kingdom is the marketplace where subjects of all ranks mingle to acquire
their wares. Thus, the vendors that work all day in the market are critical to upholding the standards of
their house and promoting its splendor. Houses compete with one another to be the most visible
throughout the market. Whichever house spends the most money in the Den on a given day will earn 100
points at the end of the market day as well as 5 resources to be used in the War Room.
The War Room
The War Room is the battle at large taking place between the houses outside the festival at which they all
pretend to be getting along. Players will have the opportunity to finance armies, purchase territories for
their house, and help lead the attack against the other houses!
The Second Step: Individual Wealth, Power, and Backing!
Personal Influence System
Personal Influence will be won throughout the course of the convention by assisting the convention,
engaging in con activities, and exploring the city of Rochester and so on. Anybody who is actively
engaged in the convention has a reasonable shot at being crowned the King! Wealth is only one factor in
the calculation of Personal Influence this year. Achievements can be verified at the Ironside Bank table (in
Dealers Den). The calculation is:
Total points from achievements and awards + (personal wealth/house wealth)*RankModifier= Influence
Thus, personal wealth is reckoned as a percentage of intra-house wealth to compare the person with their
peers. The Rank Modifiers are: Serf x50 Squire x60 Knight x75 Lord x100 Person of Title x125
Details of the achievements and the War Room rules are available as a separate handout
The Monetary System:
Hexagonal Coins:
You have been supplied with hexagonal coins of the realm at registration based on the day you picked up
your registration and the level of your registration. These coins can be used throughout the convention to
wager on contests, to make alliances by donating them to another player, to offer rewards for good deeds
done for you, or to purchase resources for your house to use in the War Room. As in real life, the more
coins the better, so get them however you can! Be cunning, be light of finger, have sticky paws, be wise
in your choices, be bold in your bets, be brave in your contests, and get as many as you can. Even if you
don’t want to win, you can accumulate wealth to back another fur that might. This year the coins are
worth the following points: Black: 100Neon: 50 Green: 20 points Red: 10 points Blue: 5 points Gold: 1
The Ironside Bank
In the Dealer’s den there will be a banker. You can bring all or some of your coins to the banker at any
time to keep them safe from theft or loss, however, when they are in the bank you can’t use them, they
are locked up and kept safe. Keep in mind ALL coins must be turned into the banker by NOON on
Monday, in order to count. Loose coins will continue to be collected, however, they will not be used to
determine the winner. So turn your coins in EARLY.
Convention Leadership
SORON, PAW OF THE KING (CON CHAIR), HOUSE BEARATHON (DEFEATED)
Soron is a giant panda that stands at
6'6" tall and is often seen cloaked in
dark green, brown, and black archer's
garb from the Renaissance period. His
leather armor is embellished with a
head of a fennec and has a wolf head
on his belt buckle, both tributes to his
friends. He totes a green bow and
long arrows with green and yellow
fletching, leading Soron to also be
called "The Green Archer Panda".
Soron often tends bar at various room
parties including the Frozen Oasis and
this has earned him the nickname
“The Booze Bear”. This affectionate
term was first “coined”, by Soron’s
friend Draconis, many years ago.
ETHERAS, LORD OF HOUSE FOXISH:
CREATIVE DIRECTOR, CONVENTION TYRANT,
PROFESSIONAL FENNEC
The nefarious little white fennec that helped put
this convention together, Etheras is a fox driven by
pursuit of perfection. This has led him to question
and re-imagine many aspects of what passes for
furry cons, and also to drive Soron crazy with
nagging demands about every little detail.
Etheras (the character) entered the fandom less
than a year ago. Before this, Etheras (the person)
used the fennec Jaspian as his character. He
started the Frozen Oasis Parties alongside Soron
in 2006, and since there have been over 25. He is
a well-known DJ and music-producer and artist.
Etheras is also a proficient fashion and costume
designer, and is easily-recognized by his
outlandish (and provocative) costumes, that have
become a trademark of his at furry cons (Often
leaving trails of feathers in his wake).

ONE OF MANY.
BY SASUKE
I am just one of many. So many of the others
around me have never tasted blood. Never
known what it was like to be brought into
battle. Never cleaved a limb from one's flesh,
nor drank from the blood-soaked pool known
as violence. No, I am unique to those around
me. Worn, beaten down, and used to the
point at which I would never be useful again.
And yet I stood beside those of far more use
as an equal, something which was not ever
possible; until I was given a new life, and a
new purpose.
Many have used me since I have come to
join the others, and I have served each new
master as faithfully as a worn out warrior
can. I have seen blood, violence, and
arrogance pass before me time and time
again, and yet each time a new victor comes
and claims the spoils which myself and my
many companions can only possibly grant. It
is no small task, to be the one which has
such power, and yet it is one that my old,
tired frame does dutifully day in and day out.
As worn down as I am, and as much as I lust
to be brought back out into battle so that I may fall or be broken down utterly in a manner
befitting my true purpose, I relish every single time a new master comes and makes use of me
and my compatriots. We are a symbol after all; a beacon to be lusted after in the great seven
kingdoms and one which will be fought over until the very end of time itself.
No one man, nor woman, can ever hope to truly claim us for good. We never expect on serving
just one master, and are always waiting in silence for another to come and claim our loyal
servitude. We are but the instrument of the king however, a tool that he can use to display his
dominance over all of the land as we serve whichever man has claim to us for the time being.
When we were forced through the crucible of battle, and the fire of our creation as a group of
one, we knew that the life we had been given would be one of nigh eternal strife and battle. It
was a known fact, and yet all that we would be allowed to do was watch and give our service to
the victor. It was hard for the warrior in me to accept, but being that I have always been but a
tool, an instrument, who was I to complain? I have been given a second chance to serve a
warrior king, and to be used as what I am... How could I? For I am but a sword after all.
A sword on the Iron Throne.

Code of Conduct for Attending FurryCon
™
Introduction
The primary purpose of FurryCon is to have fun and meet new and interesting people.
To ensure our guests achieve this objective we have established certain rules that
govern your conduct while at the convention. FurryCon welcomes all persons with an
interest in anthropomorphics and the community commonly known as “furries”,
however, the convention's management reserves the right to deny or revoke the
membership of any individual at any time for any reason. Kanouse Entertainment Group
reserves the right to amend these rules at any time without prior or posted notice and
reserves the sole right of interpretation. In any dispute, the convention chair has final
say. If you have any questions, please contact Soron for assistance.
Anyone who accepts a membership badge agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Kanouse Entertainment Group, FurryCon, the hotel, and the convention staff from any
claim for personal injuries or other damages or equity arising out of any individual's
activities at FurryCon, even if such injury or damage is caused by negligence by or on
the part of Kanouse Entertainment Group, FurryCon, the hotel, and/or the convention
staff.
As a condition of membership, all FurryCon attendees are required to abide by these
standards of conduct for the entire duration of their stay, even prior to Opening or after
Closing Ceremonies.
These terms and conditions may be updated at any time and without prior notice.
Changes to legal documentation will be posted on the furrycon.com news board.
Changes are not subject to appeal or re-negotiation. Convention membership will not be
refunded to users who disagree with revised legal documentation. Rest assured: we
won’t change legal agreements unless it is important. By attending FurryCon, you agree
to these terms and conditions.
General Rating of the Convention
All convention areas are considered to be "PG-13" at all times, even though this is a 21and-up convention there may be minors in visual or audible range and attendees should
act accordingly. Attendees, when in public areas, may not wear clothing which is
inappropriate to the atmosphere of the convention or could be deemed obscene by the
hotel staff or guests. Basically use your good judgment here. Generally speaking,
nightclub rules apply. If you would be kicked out if you were to wear it at a decent dance
club, you should reconsider your wardrobe. If you have a question, ask convention
security or operations.
Shirts, pants/shorts, and footwear must be worn when in areas of the hotel, that are
accessible to other hotel guests, such as lobbies, restaurants, and concourses.
Full-body fursuits are excluded from the "shirts/pants/footwear" rule, provided that the
costume is not unacceptably revealing. Public displays of affection beyond what is
appropriate in public are frowned upon. Again if this is you have questions please ask
we will be glad to let you know what is acceptable and what is not.
Public Decorum
No items of any kind, including paper airplanes, may be thrown or dropped from the
hotel balconies, patios, or room windows.
No water pistols, silly string, confetti, rice, glitter or similar materials may be used in any
area of the hotel.
Handheld glowsticks are permitted in the dances at all times. For safety reasons,
glowsticks on strings (aka "poi") will also be allowed only as room permits. Convention
staff will have final say on this and their decision will be final.
No sleeping in the lobby, the hallways, the meeting rooms or the Zoo. You must have a
room or go home.
Convention attendees must abide by instructions given by Convention staff. Failure to
do so will result in escort from the convention and the hotel. There will be no refund of
membership fees. Any disputes or concerns may be addressed with Convention staff.
FurryCon functions are open only to paying members who have not had their
memberships revoked, and all attendees MUST wear their membership badges at all
times. A badge is valid only for the person to whom it was issued; badges cannot be
shared under any circumstances. You will be caught if you share badges. Your picture
is brought up when your badge is scanned. Badges are scanned at every checkpoint. If
the picture is not you then the badge will be confiscated and you and the badge owner
will be questioned by Convention staff. Those found to be willfully attempting to defraud
FurryCon by not paying, or using a badge without permission of the registered party,
you will be turned over to the local authorities and prosecuted for theft of services and
possible the use of a false ID for those under the age of 21. If the badge was used with
the permission of the owner you will both be removed from the convention and the hotel
without refund.
There is no smoking in any area within the hotel, including the guest rooms. Smokers
are asked to use designated smoking areas provided by the facility, and comply with
any other smoking rules of the facility. Cigarette butts must be disposed of properly and
not left on the ground.
Providing transportation or housing, or otherwise enabling an individual that is known to
be unwelcome at FurryCon or of a person who is under 21 to attend or enter the
Convention's space will result in permanent revocation of membership privileges and
possible criminal charges.
Consumption of Alcohol
FurryCon offers free and unlimited drinks we require you to be responsible for your
consumption of alcohol. Our bartenders and Convention staff have last say in cutting
you off from consuming alcohol. As a condition of membership you assume all
responsibility for your actions and agree not to hold FurryCon, the Convention staff,
Kanouse Entertainment Group and/or the hotel liable if any injury, damages, or accident
occurs because of your alcohol consumption. Drink your fill but know your limits. Public
drunkenness will not be tolerated.
Attendance by Minors
Minors and persons under the age of 21 years of age as of May 21st, 2015 will not be
allowed to register or attend. Any minor attempting to register or providing false
identification will be turned over to the appropriate law enforcement agency as required
by law and no refund will be given.
Any person allowing their badge or ID to be used by a minor will be turned over to the
local law enforcement for providing alcohol to a minor.
Weapons Policy
Theme appropriate blades, bows and prop firearms are allowed (no real firearms),
however, these must be peace bonded by convention security staff and never drawn in
convention space. Any weapon drawn in convention space will immediately become
the property of the con chair (Soron likes new additions to his collection) and the
previous owner will be removed from the convention.
Firearms:
Real firearms are prohibited in convention space. State and local laws apply elsewhere.
NOTE: In New York you must not only possess a NYS pistol permit but you MUST also
be a resident of New York to possess or carry a handgun. So please leave the
handguns at home, no one wants to spend time in jail.
Pet Policy
FurryCon does not allow pets in convention space. This is for the protection of the pet,
the pet owner, and our attendees as a whole. Service animals are permitted in
accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Parties and Similar Gatherings in Hotel Rooms
Room parties are allowed but discouraged. We have gone to great lengths to provide a
whole con room party in convention space. Please party with the con and keep the
hotel happy!
Gatherings in hotel rooms must not generate any noise that can be heard in neighboring
rooms during nighttime hours.
Hotel doors must be kept shut during such gatherings and guests are not permitted to
congregate in the hotel corridors.
Loud parties will be given a single warning to remain quiet. No second warnings will be
given before action is taken by the hotel to remove the offending individuals. There is a
huge party being provided for you at the convention. Go there, enjoy, and keep your
hotel neighbors happy!
Hotel guests who host any gathering are responsible for cleaning up afterward.
Excessive amounts of unbagged trash must not be left for housekeeping staff to clean
up (it's just plain rude). Trash bags are available. Ask for them and use them.
Other Hotel Matters
Any act of vandalism, deliberate or excessive damage to hotel property, or interference
with any hotel worker in the performance of their duties will result in at least permanent
revocation of membership and removal from the hotel, and possible legal action.
The person in whose name a room is rented is solely responsible for the conduct of all
individuals in the room as well as for the condition of the room.
If you are going to hang door signs or notices please do so with non-marring adhesive,
such as blue painter’s tape. Please use the convention message board or the website
social media sections for posting of events and room locations.
Inappropriate parties are not permitted and will be shut down, and participants
reprimanded, including possible revocation of convention membership.
Sales of Merchandise
The sale of any merchandise, excluding personal commissions, may only take place in
the provided spaces (Dealers room).
It is the seller’s responsibility to abide by NYS tax laws. Those laws are available for
your review at http://www.tax.ny.gov/
Harassment
The convention has a ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY on harassment of any nature
(physical, verbal, or sexual). If someone tells you "no," then your business with that
person is over. "STOP" means "STOP!" "GO AWAY" means "GO AWAY!" If someone
will not understand these simple commands, contact a member of Security or any
member of Staff.
If you feel like you are being harassed (in our out of costume), talk to the person you
feel is harassing you. If you don’t feel comfortable doing so, or they don’t listen to you,
please tell a con staff member. If you’re okay with random hugs, that’s fine. Please say
so, or put it on a badge. We just don’t want it to be the assumption for all (in costume or
not).
The convention and convention staff are not responsible for solving any interpersonal
problems that may arise between individuals.
Substance Abuse
The sale or other distribution of any illegal or controlled substances is not condoned or
allow by the convention. Any individual found to be in possession of or distributing such
substances will be removed and reported directly to the local law enforcement.
Knowingly or unknowingly providing alcohol to an individual under the age of 21 is a
felony; both parties will be turned over to local law enforcement. It is the sole
responsibility of persons providing alcohol in their rooms to ensure that every person in
attendance is over the age of 21, even if that person is not drinking alcohol. New York
State and the county courts are extremely serious about the social host laws and we
ask our members to respect it.
Media
No journalists, media photographers, online content producers/publishers, nor any other
members of the press are welcome to attend FurryCon unless they do so not in
conjunction with their press duties/online content producer role. We are a private group
and wish to remain that way, please respect the wishes of our members. We have
nothing to hide, however, we have nothing to share with the public either. If members of
the media are present, attendees must act responsibly.
As a condition of membership you are informed that audio and/or video recordings are
frequently made in convention areas and that your likeness(es) may appear in those
recordings. Attendees further agree that FurryCon, The Frozen Oasis, Kanouse
Entertainment Group, or the hotel may use these pictures or recordings for promotional
materials.
If you suspect that an individual may be uninvited media (as defined above), please
notify our staff.
Copyright
This convention is copyrighted by Kanouse Entertainment Group and is for the private
non-commercial use of our attendees. Any commercial or other use of video footage, or
of any pictures, descriptions, or accounts of the convention without Kanouse
Entertainment Group's express written consent, is prohibited.
Ending Thoughts
Have fun be safe and stay within the rules. The main idea behind FurryCon is to enjoy
your furry friends and family.
What is Frozen Oasis?
Frozen Oasis is a group led by Etheras and Soron that holds
parties on Friday nights at several conventions around the United
States, usually including a dance room with live DJs and a laser
light show. In the bar area/party room, frozen golden margaritas
and strawberry daiquiris are typically served, however the drinks
can and do change to reflect the convention’s theme, as well as
non-alcoholic drinks.
How did Frozen Oasis start?
Frozen Oasis was born out of the principle of “if you don't like how
something is done, do it yourself”. Etheras and Soron didn't like
how a lot of the best furry parties seemed to be elitist and popufuronly events, either by design or by circumstance. While at Further
Confusion 2006, Etheras and Soron attended the Klingon-run Black
Hole Party which reaffirmed their belief that furs needed an open
and awesome room party. One thing that impressed them about
the Black Hole was that it was open to all and the Klingons didn't
just pander to the famous furs. The Klingon Party was drama-free,
fun, and well-regarded, but Etheras and Soron didn't want the
Klingons to have the best party at a furry con! They wanted to show
that furries knew how to party too!
Etheras and Soron started out at FWA 2006 with a simple “open to all
party” and the foundation was set for what today has become a
legendary furry party. They created a place where any fur could hang
out without regard to fandom status. They were all just furs having
fun. Afterwards, while discussing how the party went and what vision
they were to have moving forward, the topic of themes was
discussed. They didn't like how a lot of cons had themes, but don't
do much with them. Etheras and Soron decided that the Oasis would
be heavily theme driven. This started out as a luau style party but
they quickly realized that this might get stale after a while. It was
decided that in the future the party theme would reflect the con's
theme, or an element thereof, while still keeping a luau flare.
From the beginning, the team would entirely transformed two
connecting hotel rooms, and later on suites, into a nightclub. The
room was transformed through the use of curtains, lighting rigs, and
wall coverings so you would never know you were in a hotel room.
The dance area walls were covered with a mirrored
backdrop to add the lighting’s effects. The sound system
and light shows were leaps and bounds ahead of the
convention’s dances. A lot of the most popular cons are
just now catching up to where they were in 2008. During
its run some of the fandom’s best DJs spun at the Oasis.
During its tenure as a “room party”, Frozen Oasis
redefined the term and has become the model for others
to attempt to emulate. To date all attempts have fallen
short of achieving the same results as Frozen Oasis.
One major factor that set Frozen Oasis apart from other
parties, aside from the physical atmosphere, is the
philosophy that they attempted to make every guest not
only feel like they were a GoH, but also an integral
component of the party. This was accomplished by :
• Each party having a unique poster featuring Etheras and
Soron that were posted throughout the hotel (these were
often taken as souvenirs by party attendees).
• Making sure every guest was presented a lei upon entry,
and is personally greeted by Soron or Etheras.
• Guests were provided with glow sticks if they wanted to
use them while they dance.
• Whenever possible guests new to the party were given up
to 3 business cards that contained Etheras’, Soron’s, and
the Frozen Oasis’ contact information (one for each).
• Soron several times throughout the night would take a
pitcher of drinks around and fill people's glasses so they did
not have to wait in line at the bar.
• Announcements were made, usually by Soron, throughout
the party as to the number of drinks served usually reported
by the 5 gallon batch.
• Whenever possible guests were said goodbye to by
Etheras and Soron, often with a goodbye toast
• Anyone left at the end of the night was typically invited to
the “hangover breakfast” which immediately follows the end of the party at a local 24 hour diner.
Frozen Oasis parties have also been used by
patrons as their birthday parties, as well as other
significant lifetime events such as wedding
receptions and anniversary parties.
Since Friday February 17th, 2006, Frozen Oasis has
hosted 27 parties (18 at conventions). The seven
conventions around the country that have had a
Frozen Oasis are: Further Confusion, Furry Weekend
Atlanta, Morphicon, Anthrocon, Mephit Fur Meet, Fur
Fright and FangCon. Frozen Oasis has also hosted
parties at Soron’s residences in and around
Rochester, NY.
With all things, an end must
m
com
me…
The partyy grew far too
o popular to be
b contained in a set of ho
otel rooms. This
T
coupled with
w room blo
ocking
mistakes on the part of
o the hotel (a
and the unavo
oidable noise
e complaints caused
c
by them) and give
en the
fact that there
t
was jus
st no way they could stuff anymore furss into a set of
o adjoining ro
ooms, Etheras and
Soron ma
ade the decision to not ho
ost a Frozen Oasis
O
at a co
onvention unless it was in convention space
s
and could
d be done properly.
s, however, also
a
a new be
eginning. In 20
011, Frozen Oasis
O
took ovver the Fridayy night
With everry end there is
dance at Morphicon. The
T party wass attended byy over 85% off the con’s re
egistered mem
mbers the passt two
years. Givven that succe
ess, Etheras and Soron de
ecided to put in to motion a plan that ha
ad been formu
ulated
in Novem
mber of 2008. They would host the lastt furry event ever,
e
taking place
p
directlyy on the eve of
o the
Mayan ap
pocalypse, be
eing true to the
eir principles and refusing to accept anyy weekend exxcept the auth
hentic
date. Thiss was publically announced
d at the annu
ual Frozen Oa
asis Christma
as Party at So
oron’s residen
nce. It
was also announced that it would
d be the lastt party held with the nam
me Frozen Oasis
O
at a private
p
e as with hote
el rooms, the
e party had grown
g
too larrge to properrly accommod
date the gue
ests in
residence
Soron’s house.
h
All futu
ure events will be hosted at venues orr in the out of
o doors in orrder to ensure
e that
everyone has a safe and
a fun time.. The future of Frozen Oasis events held
h
at conve
entions, otherr than
ones chaired by Ethera
as and Soron, is on a case
e by case bassis.
The mostt recent Froze
en Oasis wass in Knoxville
e, TN when Soron
S
and Ettheras were GoHs
G
at Fan
ngCon
2014. Th
here are no cu
urrent plans for
f future Frozzen Oasis events, except maybe a 10 year
y
birthday party
in Atlanta 2016. Who knows
k
it could
d happen…

DJs:
Ashadan
Ash is a Hoss what else do you need to know?! Not only is he a Hoss and
FurryCon’s dance lead, but also one of our very talented DJs and a proud member of
Fur the Record. He has spun for FurryCon since its inception in 2012 at the End of
the World Con. When not behind the decks or working at cons, Ash is an avid
fursuiter and all around nice fellow! Ash had much more to say but we couldn’t
understand everything he was telling us. As Ash is fond of saying, “it is hard to talk
with a ball gag in your mouth.”
Genki
With a name synonymous with US freeform hardcore, Genki
has made a sound all his own. Known for over the top energy
and stage presence, original and rare music, and rock solid mixing skills, he has
been an in demand DJ for almost all of the last two decades. He has been a
resident at the Candyball NYC events since their beginning in NYC, and has been
a part of the Ravers Only family since 1999. Genki has brought the hardcore
sound around the US and beyond since the 1990s, into places it had never been
before, and been a driving force in exposing underground artists and producers
rather than catering to the mainstream sound at the times.
He has been a resident DJ of Klub Ambush, Vanqul, The Abyss VA, Bugatti’s, and
many other clubs and events over the years and has been a regular on the UK’s largest Hardcore station
Krafty Radio. Genki is a signed artist on Kniteforce records where he has released several original songs,
and is quickly building a catalog of new music. Genki has also played several Frozen Oasis parties since
their debut at FWA in 2006.

debuted as a convention DJ at Morphicon from 2009-2012, spinning
Complextro, Drum and Bass, Dubstep, and Electro House. As Jaspian, he
was the first furry DJ to play Dubstep at a major furry event. As Etheras, he
was the first furry DJ to play a Complextro set at a major furry event.
