About the adventure
- Loves character driven, exciting roleplay - Also loves strong narrative storytelling and worldbuilding - Uses voice acting skills to bring NPCs to life - Engaging combat, everyone gets to do something cool - Uses background music to enhance gameplay/atmosphere - New player friendly! “Welcome to Riddle Me This! The premiere game show where you answer riddles, fight monsters, and win fabulous prizes! My name is Venus, and I’ll be your host for today’s show. Let’s give a warm welcome to our contestants! Why don’t you introduce yourselves, contestants?” The players hear the tale of a sphinx guarding treasure, and follow a path through the woods to find the sphinx running a fun and (sometimes) deadly game show! Made to teach new players how to play D&D. A little bit of roleplaying, a little bit of riddles (a lot of riddles), and a little bit of combat to round out the experience.

Gameplay details
Absolutely no bullying, sexual harassment, racism, hate speech, queerphobia, or prejudice will be tolerated. Any player that engages in these behaviors will get one (1) warning, and if the behavior continues you will be kicked from the game and you will not receive a refund. There will be a mandatory 10 minute break halfway through the session for bathroom, refilling drinks, snacks, etc. but always feel free to ask for a break at any time. This is mainly to teach players the mechanics of D&D while having a wacky riddle solving time, so there should be very little triggering content. I'll be providing an optional feedback poll at the end of the adventure.
