D&D and more at The Independent!


Details
TLDR: See specific game postings and sign up for them on our web app at [ATLRPG.org/calendar](atlrpg.org/calendar) !
Hail and well met, adventurers! We host multiple weekly meetups for playing D&D and other TTRPGs.
Both new and inexperienced players are welcome! We'll teach you the rules, and give a free pre-generated character and set of dice to all first-time players, unless otherwise noted by a specific GameMaster (GM).
GMs of all skill levels, using any system or setting, are always welcome.
Also, we offer both giftcards from The Independent for GMs, and a virtual GM Token GMs can enter into raffles for donated TTRPG 'loot' at our monthly GM Workshop!
How It Works:
- We use a digital signup where GMs* post their game pre-pitch specs, and players can Reserve their spot in a single game or Waitlist in multiple. An Admin or another regular attendee can help with signups on-site for in-person/walk-in signups.
- (*including Flex GMs if they're unsure if they can run, are up for running, will be needed, or would otherwise be playing)
- Unofficial 'ATLRPG Happy Hour' starts at 6:00 PM - meet your fellows, discuss your plans, and prepare devious plots! Folks usually arrive after 6:30pm.
- At 7:00 PM, the official meetup starts! By 7:15pm, GMs gather their players and the games begin. Games typically run from 7:30 PM to 10:00/11:00 PM.
What You Need to Bring:
You don't need to bring anything to play--we provide dice, character sheets, and helpful advice for all new players!
- Players, if you want to bring a homemade character sheet, the assumptions for D&D 5e are 3rd level, Standard Array or Point Buy, and average HP. Any WotC content, but no UA or Homebrew. If you see a GM prepitch a different RPG in our Discord, feel free to ask them if you can bring a homemade character if they did not specify it.
- GMs, if you are interested in running a game, we provide players with dice, pencils, and D&D 5e pregens as specified above. You will need to bring whatever you usually use to run a session--e.g., books, maps, minis, etc. If you're running a system other than 5e, you'll need to provide character sheets (and rules instructions) for your players. Feel free to prepitch or otherwise gauge interest in our Discord's event channels.
See you soon, adventurers!

Every week on Thursday until May 4, 2025
