Level: Beginner
Characters: We are going to make them!
Description: Led by an experienced Dungeon Master (and Nerd Louisville board member), this workshop will walk you through creating a Dungeons & Dragons (2024 Rules) character.
We’ll then put those characters to immediate use in an introductory adventure!
Character sheets, pencils, dice, minis, and maps will all be provided. You only need to bring yourself!
However, if you already have a copy of the Player’s Handbook (2024 Rules), bringing your own copy may be of use, but it’s not required. You are also welcome to bring your own favorite dice or a mini for your character if desired.
Trigger Warning: possibility of drowning during the ship-focused adventure
Level: Beginner
Characters: Pregens will be provided
Description: A crowd stood in the parking lot, gathered around something huge, neurocasters glittering everywhere. It seemed to be an enormous rebuilt drone. Its head and arm looked like they came from one of those big action drones you see in Neurodrome arenas, and bundles of cables poured out of its open head.
Level: Beginner
Characters: Pregens provided
Description: The Mayor of the sleepy town of Bur Hollow has requested your help to determine the whereabouts of Melina, the town guard captain. The town is unprotected without her leadership and rests uncomfortably close to goblin lands. Time is of the essence as rumors swirl of an imminent goblin raid!
Level: Beginner
Characters: Pregens will be rolled at the table
Description: Want to play “D&D” without learning tons of rules or mechanics? This is your chance! You don’t need *any* prior D&D/TTRPG experience to enjoy this game, so beginners are especially welcome! Characters will be created at the beginning of the session. Dice, character sheets, etc. will be provided.
Scenario: You are a bunch of muscular people who are good-natured and not academically inclined (Himbo, Herbo, Brobo, Thembo, Shimbo, etc.). You’re on a mission to save the local gym from being demolished and repurposed into some high-end apartments. Lucky for you, you’ve heard tell of an ancient treasure buried under your high street way back in 1973! You’ve got until 5pm to find the hidden treasure and buy back the lease.
Game System: Himbo Treasure Hunt is a free one-page RPG by Grant Howitt and Sasha Sienna available at https://gshowitt.itch.io/himbo-treasure-hunt.
