This class is an on-going adventure, students are free to join at any time, they will be integrated at the beginning of their first session. Sessions will be learner-directed based on story and character choices the learners make. To participate in this adventure, students will require access to a computer.

Parental Guidance
This class features gameplay that includes fighting and killing monsters, so parents should be aware that the story and themes will include these elements.
We also use the websites D&D Beyond (https://www.dndbeyond.com/) and Owlbear Rodeo (https://www.owlbear.rodeo/). D&D Beyond is an officially licensed game by the Wizards of the Coast who creates the game Dungeons & Dragons. We use the website exclusively for making the characters learners will use and them making a group so players can see each others characters. However parents should note that the website also features an online forum for members of the public. Therefore content cannot be fully censored. Owlbear Rodeo is a website that provides maps to use while playing.
