龍與地下城：尋找冒險家！

One of the best ways to learn Dungeons and Dragons is by playing it!  This is a short, one-time class during which students will have 90 minutes to solve a mystery, defeat their foes, and reap the rewards!  Our story will start with a group of would-be heroes looking to get their feet wet in the world of adventuring.  They'll take a job helping a pretzel-maker who got in over his head when he tried to expand his basement kitchen.  Will they be able to fend off the horrors the baker unwittingly unleashed?  Can they find the source of trouble and prevent future attacks?  Will they get more than just free pretzels as payment?

Students will practice the many skills that Dungeons and Dragons hones - creativity, problem solving, critical thinking, teamwork, leadership, public speaking, and the ability to perform quick mental math calculations.

No D&D experience is necessary to participate in this class, but even experienced D&D players should find this adventure a fun and exciting diversion.  For beginners, gameplay will be explained as we proceed through the adventure.  Students should have a first level character ready to play prior to class.  A set of starter characters is included in the files for learners who would rather use a premade character.

This quick one-time class is a great way to try out Dungeons and Dragons without committing to a longer adventure or spending tons of money on books.  I will provide students with the Players Basic Rules in addition to starter characters.  If students do not have dice, they may use an online dice roller.  They should also have a pencil to use during class.

Please note:  students will be expected to cooperate with each other in class.  Students are discouraged from playing characters with an evil alignment.  Player vs. Player combat is not allowed.
