Learn & Play Dungeons & Dragons

We love teaching roll playing games at Storyweaver Games and this week we are teaching the world’s most famous one, Dungeons & Dragons. You may have seen it in Stranger Things or found out about it through the animated shows of Vox Machina and The Mighty Nine, now you can play it. Pick your character, tell your tale, and roll some dice as you learn how to play Dungeons and Dragons in this single session game. You find yourself on the way to the Borderlands to make a name for yourself and get a start on your adventuring career but it seems the trail to the keep may not be as safe as it has been made out to be. All playing materials will be provided.
