into the long-abandoned ruins of Koor, a former forge city high<br />
in the Zho Mountains. In their effort to find the lost agent, the<br />
Pathfinders may find themselves facing a foe long locked in a<br />
secure vault by the city’s former occupants—guardians whose<br />
departure weakened their defenses, paving the way for a terrible<br />
escape. Lisa Neilson<br />

kobolds living beneath Absalom. When an elite patrol discovers<br />
a wounded member of the Society with a desperate message, the<br />

279 Beginning Voice [workshop] Paine (2W)<br />
i A workshop aimed at people who have no vocal training. It will<br />
cover some of the basics that singers learn, including breathing,<br />
projection, and diction. No observers. This is a room where it’s OK<br />
to suck. This workshop is limited to 15 students; attendees should<br />
sign up in advance at the Program Nexus. Mark Bernstein (m)<br />
280 The Ridiculous SF Premise Marina 1 (2E)<br />
Scientific progress has a way of defying expectations. Turns out<br />
that many of the things we never thought possible have come to<br />
pass, while that orbital elevator still eludes us. What premises in<br />
SF seem the most ridiculous and difficult to explain, and what<br />
ones make all sorts of intuitive sense until you look beneath the<br />
surface? Mark L Amidon (m), Ken Kingsgrave-Ernstein, B. Diane<br />
Martin, Ian Randal Strock, Stephen R Wilk<br />
281 The Impossible Girl: Clara’s Run as Companion Marina 2 (2E)<br />
Jenna Coleman has now left Doctor Who. In her short time, she’s<br />
been the Doctor’s “Impossible Girl,” been a part of the 50th Anniversary<br />
Special with its Tennant/Smith crossover, and been the<br />
first Companion in seven years to witness a regeneration. How<br />
has her run worked overall, and what would we like to see done<br />
differently with the next Companion? Gordon Linzner (m), John<br />
Chu, Forest Handford, Victoria Queeno, Isabel Schechter<br />
282 Introduction to Asexuality Marina 3 (2E)<br />
We’re all familiar by now with the sexual orientations homosexual,<br />
heterosexual, and bi/pansexual. Much less discussed are<br />
asexuals, people who do not experience sexual attraction (but<br />
who may experience romantic attraction). We’ll discuss what<br />
asexuality is and is not, the umbrella of asexual identities, and<br />
talk about some common challenges asexual people face and<br />
why visibility matters. Dash (m), Elizabeth Birdsall, Fish, Faith<br />
Karklin<br />
283 Haus De Fraction: Milkfed Criminal Masterminds Marina 4 (2E)<br />
With successes like Captain Marvel, Bitch Planet, Hawkeye and<br />
Sex Criminals under their belts, comics has a new power couple<br />
in Kelly Sue DeConnick and Matt Fraction. These gifted writers<br />
are using the comics medium to address issues regarding representation,<br />
diversity and feminism in wildly creative ways. This<br />
panel will explore their amazing talents and enduring popularity<br />
