About the adventure
Come and visit Nix's Tavern! Bring a character at any level for games of chance, revelry, role play, and perhaps a random battle! A monthly drop in gathering held on Final Fridays with a special focus on Role Play practice. These games will benefit charity organizations. Come and go as you need throughout the hours, as if you're arriving at a Tavern. Bring your party or come on your own! Read through for safety boundaries. For July, 2025 we have not yet set our beneficiary! We will either partner with SPG or I will make up the 15% platform fees myself so that 100% of all proceeds of the game go to our named group. Let's help while having some fun shenanigans!

About me
Profile Pic by HoneyandHeatherPhotos on Instagram I love telling collaborative stories. It is the best feeling in the world. To improvise imaginative stories together where we can problem solve, overcome obstacles, choose hope, and carve a better reality together? It is my deep and abiding joy. Storytelling is an ancient tradition and it is a gift to share this skill with others. I began GM'ing 7 years ago after I finished my doctoral work in storytelling. Adding my theatre training alongside of my decades of community building, these three threads spin together to create the warp of our story's tapestry. I love to teach, guide, and encourage. I listen, watch, and celebrate communal and cooperative story telling. I love to nurture, cajole, and challenge a group of people towards a common goal. To find your story threads, grab onto them, and weave them into a cohesive tapestry that we can each remember with satisfaction. Whether we choose Dungeons and Dragons 5e, Thirsty Sword Lesbians, a simple one page rule set, or something yet to be released - together we will use the mechanics of the system and our gathered imaginations to create something beautiful.

Creating your character
Bring a D&D 5e character of any level to the Tavern. Characters must be suitable to play with minors in attendance or within earshot. If you would like to receive a prebuilt character please let me know ahead of time in Discord! I can certainly help you out but we'll need to have a little chat first. I am able to honor 2014 or 2024 character builds. I will be defaulting to 2024 base rules for encounters.
Know that you can come and go during this 4 hour window! This is a Tavern/Gathering atmosphere. If you can only stay for a short time, that is perfectly ok. The hours are set to hopefully allow folks from multiple time zones a chance to join the fun.

What Nix brings to the table
DnDBeyond Pro Account with almost all source books HeroForge virtual token creation Nix's Table Discord Server I can allow you access to DnD Beyond for character creation if you wish to create something unique! You can then download the character sheet or transfer your character to another campaign. I cannot host your character long term. I am a storytelling DM that relies on my theatre background to help bring things to life. I utilize voices and accents as well as posture and facial expression to give unique qualities to different NPC's. I am a patient teacher and have worked with a wide variety of people throughout my life. It is a joy to create a fun and playful environment for growth and experimentation.
