Dungeons & Dragons 5e isn't the only game in town; Learners explore contemporary TTRPG games systems and settings with a tabletop roleplaying game writer and publisher.
Class experience
While no one can deny that Dungeons & Dragons is a beloved classic, the world of tabletop roleplaying is so much larger than a single game or system! In this class, we will delve into the wide array of tabletop RPG systems beyond D&D and the 5e system. We will discuss what types of games different systems work best for, why players might prefer one system over another, and how these systems can be used to represent different skills, actions, or in-game events.

Students will learns about a variety of tabletop roleplaying systems currently available on the market which do not use D&D 5e mechanics.
I started playing tabletop roleplaying games almost 30 years ago, beginning with Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition and rapidly expanding into horror, scifi, and other fantasy game systems. I have worked in the a tabletop roleplaying game industry as a writer and editor for over 20 years. My husband and I opened a small roleplaying game publishing company in 2019, producing licensed materials for the contemporary investigative horror game, Chill 3rd Edition. I have extensive experience as a Game Master for players age 8+, and have even run a three-part actual-play game session that aired on YouTube during Dragon Con Goes Virtual in 2020.
Learners do not need to bring any supplies to class. I will not distribute copies of the games shared in class. I will provide a link to the game discussed each week if learners wish to purchase the game for their own use.
Some tabletop roleplaying games may contain age-appropriate combat/violence, monsters, and themes of romance. Learners are encouraged to examine their own boundaries and comfort level as we approach each game. Learners who are uncomfortable with the subject matter of a specific game (for example, if the learner doesn't wish to explore horror game content) may prefer to unenroll for that week and reenroll after. I am happy to answer questions about any of the games we will be covering.
