About the adventure
Are you someone curious about D&D, role-playing games, or how to play them online? Then this is for you! By the time you're done, you'll have made a character of your own and played in a mini-scenario so that you're ready to play in any D&D game. In this session, we will cover: * Tips for using Discord for voice, video, and text chat. * What a roleplaying game is, and D&D in particular. * The basic setting elements of a D&D game. * The basic mechanics of the game. * A *brief* overview of the classes and races. * A *brief* overview of the technology and virtual tabletops. * How to use D&D Beyond, Roll 20, and Beyond 20 together. While doing so, we'll work together to make your own character from your ideas, generate some party backstory, and play a brief mini-scenario to allow your character to interact with a fantasy world and use what you've learned!
This is an inclusive session for all people, regardless of race, orientation, neurotype, disability, or other factor. Session sizes are kept small to allow for more one-on-one interaction.

What I provide
Decades of experience playing and running tabletop roleplaying games, including multiple editions of Dungeons & Dragons
Gameplay details
I take trigger warnings seriously, and so should you. As a general rule, I try to avoid anything related to sexual assault. Be respectful to others, don't be a jerk. This is almost entirely character creation and rules explanation, so there should be no issues.
