A Queerer Furry History
Saturday December 7, 2024 9:30am - 11:30am CST
You are already aware of the history of the furry fandom, but when, how and why did furries get to be SO QUEER? In this talk, Arrkay from the award-winning video series "Culturally F'd" takes a second look into the queer origins of the furry fandom. Our journey takes us through homophobia fueled flame wars, a convention described as a "pride parade on acid", all the way to litterboxes in classrooms. Together we'll peer into the past of queer and trans furry artists, marches, frolics and raves, and even some pre-fandom stuff just for fun.

A Fully Improvised Musical: Trapped in a Musical
Saturday December 7, 2024 10:00am - 11:00am CST
Trapped in a Musical is a fully improvised, hour long musical. Welcome to our little town. It’s a mostly ordinary town, filled with mostly ordinary critters. But every so often, one of our townspeople finds themselves TRAPPED IN A MUSICAL! They never know when it’s coming, because it’s up to YOU, our audience. Every performance you’ll pick the main character, you’ll give us the plot points, the finer details, and on the spot we’ll create a 60-minute musical about this seemingly ordinary townsperson. They’ll only be as ordinary as you make them, but we guarantee you’ll laugh as we improvise songs, dances and mayhem. So welcome to our little town! Stay a while.

Blood on the Clocktower: Trouble Brewing (New to the game/Beginners+)
Saturday December 7, 2024 10:00am - 12:00pm CST
Blood on the Clocktower is a game of murder, mystery, lies, logic, deduction, and deception for five-to-twenty courageous players and one devious storyteller. A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know. The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge, trust each other, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust, evade detection, and wipe out the village. During a hellish thunderstorm, a scream echoes through the sleepy town of Ravenswood Bluff. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the beloved local storyteller has been murdered, their body hanging limp from the clocktower. As blood drips onto the cobblestones below, a realisation slowly dawns… a demon has been unleashed, killing by night and taking on human form by day. Can good find the demon in time? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful town?

Self-Expression and Authenticity in the Furry Fandom
Saturday December 7, 2024 11:00am - 12:00pm CST
Have you ever felt like being around others is awkward because you have to 'play a role' that isn't you? Have you ever felt like some part(s) of you that are longing to be expressed, but can't safely be shown to others? Have you felt 'wrong' or 'broken' in your body, identity, or sense of self? This is a panel about finding authenticity. It will discuss ways to do this, through several lenses common in the fandom, such as gender, neurodivergence, and disability. It is hoped that this panel will spark a discussion about finding acceptance from both others and oneself, and inspire us to be better at both seeking support and providing it for others. Through this, it is hoped that we can do better as a fandom, both for all the diverse people within it and for ourselves.

Blood on the Clocktower: Bad Moon Rising (Moderate skill level+)
Saturday December 7, 2024 1:00pm - 3:00pm CST
Blood on the Clocktower is a game of murder, mystery, lies, logic, deduction, and deception for five-to-twenty courageous players and one devious storyteller. A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know. The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge, trust each other, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust, evade detection, and wipe out the village. During a hellish thunderstorm, a scream echoes through the sleepy town of Ravenswood Bluff. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the beloved local storyteller has been murdered, their body hanging limp from the clocktower. As blood drips onto the cobblestones below, a realisation slowly dawns… a demon has been unleashed, killing by night and taking on human form by day. Can good find the demon in time? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful town?

Where the River Meets the Sea - Mythology of the Mermaid
Saturday December 7, 2024 2:30pm - 3:30pm CST
This panel is a survey of mythology surrounding "mermaids" and mermaid-like creatures. Half human, half fish, these beings exist between worlds and play a variety of roles in the stories in which they appear. Where and when did the concept of a "mermaid" arise, and how has it changed over the centuries? Join us as we discuss the tropes and how mermaids (and their close cousins) have appeared in literature, pop culture, and folklore.

Your Imagined Furry Fantasy (18+)
Saturday December 7, 2024 3:00pm - 6:00pm CST
This light-hearted RPG-esque system designed by SteelTheWarrior was borne of frisky fantasy, silly stories of over-the-top shenanigans and inspired by popular flash games like Corruption of Champions, Trials in Tainted Space, and Flexible Survival! Gameplay gives players a different perspective on the psychology behind modern-day sexuality and taboo as they adventure in a world where just about everything is over-sexualized (including combat!) to offer silly-fun and sex-positive escapades!

Blood on the Clocktower
Saturday December 7, 2024 4:00pm - 6:00pm CST
Blood on the Clocktower is a game of murder, mystery, lies, logic, deduction, and deception for five-to-twenty courageous players and one devious storyteller. A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know. The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge, trust each other, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust, evade detection, and wipe out the village. During a hellish thunderstorm, a scream echoes through the sleepy town of Ravenswood Bluff. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the beloved local storyteller has been murdered, their body hanging limp from the clocktower. As blood drips onto the cobblestones below, a realisation slowly dawns… a demon has been unleashed, killing by night and taking on human form by day. Can good find the demon in time? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful town?

Blood on the Clocktower
Saturday December 7, 2024 6:00pm - 8:00pm CST
Blood on the Clocktower is a game of murder, mystery, lies, logic, deduction, and deception for five-to-twenty courageous players and one devious storyteller. A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know. The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge, trust each other, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust, evade detection, and wipe out the village. During a hellish thunderstorm, a scream echoes through the sleepy town of Ravenswood Bluff. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the beloved local storyteller has been murdered, their body hanging limp from the clocktower. As blood drips onto the cobblestones below, a realisation slowly dawns… a demon has been unleashed, killing by night and taking on human form by day. Can good find the demon in time? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful town?

I Feel Weird: Strange Desires from the Golden Age of Animation (18+ ONLY)
Saturday December 7, 2024 10:00pm - 11:30pm CST
Come join us for a screening of "those" cartoons - you know the ones. The ones that made you uncomfortable as a child. The Looney Tunes that stirred up uncanny desires you'd never felt before, and gave you feelings that didn’t have a name. A loveless lovebird wants desperately to be swallowed whole by a voracious puddy tat. A potion is consumed, and a tiny mouse begins expanding his horizons. There are wolves in sheep’s clothing, bunnies beyond binaries, and buzzards under the thrall of mesmerizing emanations. Do you remember the one where death was the happy ending? Do you remember when existential fear first felt warm? Tonight, the glow of the TV will be our full moon, as we unwind tight coils of 16mm film and VHS tape to unleash lost memories of transformative Saturday mornings. Your host Auryn will overshare stories from childhood while guiding you through the classic cartoons that launched a million kinks. This is where you came from, remember? Possibly named one of FWA’s “Top 10 Emerging Panels” by Teen Panelist Magazine, this new presentation for MFF features permanent audience hypnosis, even more rare 16mm films, and at least twice as much personal vulnerability! So bring your sublimated yearning and your PJs – we’ll bring the milk and cereal!

A Search through Cyberspace: Spirituality and Storytelling
Sunday December 8, 2024 11:00am - 12:00pm CST
I think it's a common furry experience to surf the web for like peoples and like stories; to reach across cyberspace for comfort and connection. This is a powerful drive reflected in much of our community's media and fiction. And for me, it is spiritual. What does that mean? Let's talk about it. In this panel, I'll use fantasy and cyberpunk storytelling along with my visual novel "String Zero" as lenses to discuss how spirituality as "a search for meaning and connection" buoys and enriches furry storytelling.

Come join a discussion about the challenges of preserving furry history, where the fandom stands today and what needs to be done in the future to build the institutions and infrastructure to preserve the past. This is the fourth installment of the panel with new content and hopefully a group discussion about what aspects of the current fandom should be focused on for preservation.

Why Aren't You Wearing Pants?! - Discussing "Bottomless" Cartoon Characters

Have you ever wondered why characters like Donald Duck, Porky Pig, Bugs Bunny, or even Princess Sally Acorn wear little to no clothing? This panel is a PG-13 get-together discussion of our favorite cartoon animal characters that have an interesting fashion choice of wearing nothing below the waist or sometimes nothing at all. We talk about the possible reasons why this is the case and how it has become one of the norms in animation for anthro characters. Does your fursona also follow this fashion or take inspiration from these characters? Please feel free to join in and discuss!

Your Imagined Furry Fantasy (18+)
Sunday December 8, 2024 12:00pm - 3:00pm CST
This light-hearted RPG-esque system designed by SteelTheWarrior was borne of frisky fantasy, silly stories of over-the-top shenanigans and inspired by popular flash games like Corruption of Champions, Trials in Tainted Space, and Flexible Survival! Gameplay gives players a different perspective on the psychology behind modern-day sexuality and taboo as they adventure in a world where just about everything is over-sexualized (including combat!) to offer silly-fun and sex-positive escapades!

This panel is for the furries in the fandom who just love tails, maybe too much, or maybe just a bit. Tails are a BIG part of the fandom that sometimes don't get the attention they truly deserve! This panel starts with a short presentation from me, Mika, where I discus what makes tails special to the fandom. We will go over the various ways people in the fandom can appreciate them, from aesthetics, to practical use, to wanting to have one ourselves! Plus sharing some characters from media that have particularly nice tails! We will then open the panel to the audience, where they can admit they have a tail problem and chime in on why THEY love tails! They can discuss how their tail love began, and some of their favorite characters in media they think have nice tails! We will conclude with a Meet & Greet where everyone can mingle and discuss tails with other fellow tail lovers! For an appendage almost every fursona has, and one of the few that isn't just a different shape of something we already have, tails are really special. Let's give them the attention they deserve!
