Dungeons and Dragons 107: The Rusty Nail Inn, an Improv Skills Adventure

**Taught by career classroom theater teachers, this course is a combination of "improv basics" and roleplaying practice for games like D&D**

Do you want to work on your roleplaying skills? Do you enjoy getting into character? Well...its time for a trip to the "Rusty Nail Inn" where you'll play as your character with other students in this one time, roleplaying focused session. 

Many D&D sessions can wander off into monster hunting adventures, and while fun, often leave little time for roleplaying. This is your chance to spend time delving into your character's backstory, chatting up mysterious NPCs in the DnD Club world, and testing your skills against other players or patrons of the "Rusty Nail Inn". Perhaps you've met Sula, or Sidin, or the cranky Uvedran? They may all make an appearance in this course, and if you enjoy yourself, feel welcome to sign up for repeat sessions. Every trip to the Inn is a bit different.

What will be taught? 
The session will take place in the "Rusty Nail Inn" and students will participate in an open roleplaying session where they will play their character to their comfort level. There will always be some set encounters, and students are encouraged to come up with their own scenarios to roleplay during class.  Maybe their character arrives with a magic weapon.  Maybe they have a quest from their DnD Club campaign about which they need more information. Students are welcome to direct message the instructor to brainstorm about a scenario they have in mind or if they need help preparing.

Who will enjoy this class?
Students who want to work on their roleplaying and character development. Players who already have a character they are exploring in one of our campaigns will be a particularly good fit. Please reach out to the DM if you need help with creating a character. 

STUDENT EXPECTATIONS: Students agree adhere to our core philosophy that roleplaying games are team based, inclusive, and supportive of fellow players. Students will strive, to the best of their abilities, to help each other both in and out of game. Any deliberate behavior to negatively impact another player's character or make students feel excluded will be cause for potential removal from the course without refund. This is at the discretion of the DM and Adam Scott, the DnD Club head teacher.
