DnD for Newbies - You Meet in a Tavern :-)

We welcome anyone from veteran players that are Newbies at heart all the way to those that have never played a session.

You Meet in a Tavern. We will be meeting at the McMenamins Barley Mill Pub on Hawthorne.

There is no agenda or schedule. We manly focus on character creation and talking about game play rules. We usually have around 10 people, but don't be surprised if its as few as 5 or as many as 20. Both have happened.

• When we've had a larger group we've broken into a couple different tables where one is making characters with the DnD Beyond App and another is doing paper/pencil. We've also done one very large table of about 12 where we all made a sorcerer together.
• For the smaller groups we've made characters based on movie/TV characters, we've just sat around and talked, one time I had some premade characters and we did a quick 1 hour mini session.

What to bring. I'll have character sheets, dice, copies of the Player's Handbook, and access to DnD Byond for participants. I do, however, encourage you to bring your own stuff if you are able (D&D is more fun with your own dice). I also sell dice if you want to buy a set while you're there.

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 44 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). I will be at the event 30 minutes ahead of time if you'd like to stop by before everyone else shows up.

If you are a DM who is interested in helping out feel free to shoot me a message! We can always use some help running our events.

---------------

This session is $5 per person, payable at the time of the event. I accept cash, Venmo, and lunch :-). This $5 will go towards the cost of the next adventure you attend. This does not include food/beverage, which I encourage you to purchase in support of our hosts.

In addition to the session itself, you also get extended access to all my resources on DND Beyond for at least a month after the event.
