Cub Friendliness at The Gathering?


"Will The Gathering Be Family Friendly?"
______________________________________________
 
Well we're glad you asked! We know that ElfQuest has some (deliciously) adult content. In fact, the realistic advantage on this marvelous world of fantasy we all have come to love is what has kept so much of the fan base steadily faithful. Despite the differences, EQ has always had a prominent level of relatability - and to be frank, WE FRIGGIN' LOVE IT!
 
However, truth of the matter is: adults aren't the only ones who enjoy ElfQuest. In actuality, in a vast assortment of EQ groups or forums, you will find tons of longtime readers - and parents - who not only started reading EQ at young ages themselves (myself included - I was barely in elementary school when I discovered my newfound love), but have also introduced the comic to their children. And needless to say, many of these said children have taken the torch and are running enthusiastically with it.
 
So, why should the young ones be denied the experience of a lifetime?
ElfQuest radiates in the love and comfort that tribe or family (is there ever really a difference?) can bring. Why not let that feeling soar on the grounds of The Gathering?
 
One thing we and ElfQuest DEFINITELY share is love for family
(mates, cubs, and those who have earned the title).

That being said, of course The Gathering will be family friendly! We wouldn't want it any other way. It is our intention that everyone of all ages be able to enjoy the fun - and with so many wonderful people around, how can it be anything other than a good time? I can hear the sounds of laughter running through the air already. Can't you? No? Well, it'll probably be something a little like this:
 
Yeah, we're gonna be Skywise and Starjumper playing around, fun!

All jokes aside, we of course want people to understand what they are coming to howl to. Naturally there won't be any "Go-Back" styled, fire pit partying going on - you all know very darn well what kind of partying I'm talking about (NOT that we're cutting out a jolly good fire pit dance) - but we don't want anyone to be offended. For example: cosplay. A lot of our EQ characters' dress has been considered "barely there" by other fans. I'm sure there will be an assortment of characters being cosplayed at The Gathering, so if you are a parent uncomfortable with your children being around exposed skin - great - but then you might want to make this a trip for adults only. If you are not uncomfortable with this, great! Bring the whole tribe!
 
Either way, we desire everyone to feel as comfortable as possible and altogether around enthused about what The Gathering is trying to birth forth. If you have any questions or comments, don't be shy to reply or contact us at our social media sites or email: EQTheGathering@gmail.com
 
On behalf of EQ The Gathering, we look forward to seeing ElfQuest fans of all ages at ElfQuest The Gathering 2018!
