The Rose Coliseum: Newbie Friendly Two-Shot w/ Paul

Campaign: Weirdbridge
Adventure: The Rose Coliseum (Part 1 and 2)
Setting: Forgotten Realms

The Rose Coliseum is where aspiring adventurers go to be recognized for their gifts. Stepping into its arena means leaving with fame, fortune, rare magical items—or never leaving at all. Survive the trials, put on a good show, and the world will know your name.

As you approach, the structure feels ancient. Crumbling stone arches loom overhead, their columns wrapped in climbing roses, the air sweet with possibility.

The iron gates swing open. Do you dare enter?

Character Creation.

• We will follow the DND4N rules for character creation.
• I hold character creation sessions every four weeks. Join us to get started your character.
• Our first session will include building our characters, but please feel free to put some ideas together beforehand.

Who are you? You met a Tiefling on your travels or at your local tavern. You met them during those quiet moments between adventures. They told the story of the Rose Coliseum and of some of the great heroes who walked its sands and bested its trials. Their stories promised adventure. Glory. You are either lawful or chaotic good. For a table with new players or new-to-each-other players it is best for all characters to be good aligned.

Seats at the table. Preferential seating given to those that have attended previous sessions and/or character creation sessions with the DM.

• Please keep your RSVP updated so players on the waitlist can join and the DM can plan accordingly. Last minute RSVP changes (less than 48 hours) or no-shows are frowned upon.
• The DM reserves the right to decide party make-up (Players and PC Levels)
• There is no required fee for this session, but supporting the table and the DM (suggested $30) is much appreciated.

You Meet in a Tavern. We will be meeting at the Chapel Pub on Killingsworth in North Portland.

Your DM. Showing up to a Meetup event where you don't know anyone can be a lil scary. If you'd like to get to know the DM a little, I am a 46 year old data nerd that got into DnD because of a TikTok. I am from the Midwest but moved out here for the clouds and the rain (not joking).
