D&D 5e Learn-to-Play, with House GM Eric V. on Tuesday, June 18th, from 6pm to 11pm, 6 Seats Maximum
About this experience
New Dungeons & Dragons :
Learn-to-Play Game Session
Maybe you played Baldur's Gate, or maybe you watched Stranger Things. Or maybe you've been on the internet in the last few years, and seen games being streamed by professional actors. However you heard about D&D, you've taken the hardest step of all, you found a game to play in!
Congrats! Now let us take over the heavy lifting, as we show you the ropes in a fun and intuitive way. We'll begin with character creation, as we walk step-by-step, through building your first Hero. Bring your imagination!
And then we'll head to adventure, diving into a quest. We'll learn the mechanics of playing the game in real time, as you explore, socialize, and fight. At it's core, D&D is a game about killing monsters, that's true, but also an immersive and collaborative storytelling experience. The decisions your characters make will guide the direction of the story.
Your Host
House GM Eric V.'s Backstory-
Hey, folks.
I'm Eric, and most of all, I love the community of TTRPGs.
I started playing D&D in a very different time and place, the early to mid-eighties with AD&D. I'll be honest, we didn't know what the hell we were doing, but we had a lot of fun. Fast-forward 40-ish years and my brother tells me he's playing D&D. I remember thinking, "oh, people still do that? That would be so fun now. I wonder if anyone plays in Dallas?". And now, a few years later, running games is one of my favorite things in the world.
I love building a world with a group, and TTRPGs are just about the most fun thing you can do with your brain. 5E has been my mainstay, but of late, game design and other systems have grabbed a share too. Anything that adds more fun and family to the TTRPG community is what I seek. Let's tell great stories together!
