Parental Guidance
This class teaches the rules and knowledge to play Dungeons and Dragons. Learners will encounter nothing scary. The Dungeons and Dragons Game is basically a storytelling exercise with a construct of rules placed over it. The game does have imaginary combat and spellcasting as its focal point as most tales take place in fantasy worlds much like Lord of the Rings or fairy tales that include fighting dragons. Only the secure Outschool tools and meeting platform will be used in presenting this class.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been playing Dungeons and Dragons and being a game master for over 44 years. During that time I have taught many people to play the game, people of all ages. I wish to pass some of my knowledge and love of the game to a new generation of players.
