While running a successful table of D&D isn't nearly as hard as it seems, that first time leading a game can feel daunting. Wouldn't it be great to get some pointers and tips from a seasoned Dungeon Master as a fresh campaign got underway? What if you could try taking over as the Dungeon Master of an ongoing game just to get the feel of things? One ticket secures your spot at the table for this unique four-week gaming workshop, where we will play a regular game of D&D but take turns fulfilling the game roles typically held by the Dungeon Master.
This workshop is intended for adventurers 14+. For younger adventurers (ages 9-13), check the schedule for one of our D&D for Kids sessions.
Event Dates: 1/6, 1/13, 1/20 & 1/27
Event Time: 6:00PM - 9:00PM
Summary: Dungeons and Dragons is a tabletop role playing game in which players act together to build a communal story. While most players describe only their character’s actions within the fictional world of the adventure, the person taking on the role of Dungeon Master (DM) describes everything else in the fiction of the story. That responsibility can be challenging as it includes the challenges faced by the player characters, the environment, the monsters, and any non-player characters.
Some worry that taking the role of DM calls for a lot of work and hardship. However, by rising to this challenge, one can be at the center of all the fun, excitement, and creativity of running a game session. It can be very rewarding, and ultimately make the DM a better player as well.
This workshop will tell a story, but it will be shaped by each and every player on a principal level. Let’s learn how to Dungeon Master by taking turns behind the screen, and share game mastering tricks plucked from years of running role-playing games of all types. .
About the Professor: Your professor is Andrew Smith. Not only is he a skilled game master, he's a former educator, a computer programmer, and a father. He's a friend of the Academy, and we know he will be your friend as well.
What to Bring: No need to create a character beforehand, but come ready with a concept for what kind of game you want to play. We will create a party of third level characters together and decide what our adventure will be about on the first night. Bring dice, paper, and a pencil. If you have a miniature to represent your character would be great!
