Join us as we play All Is Not Red and Merry, a fun Christmas themed single session adventure. This class consists of a single interactive 120-minute session. The story adapts to the choices made by the adventurers. Parents can expect a blend of teamwork, problem-solving, and imaginative storytelling. All characters must be ready to play BEFORE the session begins. New players may choose from a selection of pre-made characters. Alternatively players may come with their own 1st level character which must be approved in advance. CLASS 1: Introductions & Story Introductions - Learners will greet each other, discuss their experience with Dungeons & Dragons or similar games. Rules - As a group, learners will create a set of rules to follow through the week. Character Introductions - Learners will describe their character or choose from a selection of pre-made characters. Adventure - Characters begin by finding out goblins have broken into the warehouse and stolen this year's presents. Following a trail of presents left in the snow the players find a cave. Inside a goblin overlord and his minions are waiting, can the players survive? Reflection- Learners will describe their favourite moments from the story and what they enjoyed. To participate in this thrilling adventure, students will require access to a computer. Alongside our Zoom meetings, we will be using the websites D&D Beyond (https://www.dndbeyond.com/) and Owlbear Rodeo (https://www.owlbear.rodeo/) to enhance our gameplay. Sign up today for an adventure that promises both suspense and excitement!
