Hello Adventurers!

🌟 This Dungeons & Dragons 5e event is what we call "open play" - where anyone is welcome to reserve a seat at the available tables with no experience or previous attendance necessary. This is a great opportunity for both new or returning players to join forces with veterans and get first-hand experience, friendly tips, and helpful explanations.

📖 The tables are run by a rotating roster of DMs, and each month will be a new "one-shot" or a story arc that can be completed in one sitting. We're running these tables at 5th level if you would like to create a character ahead of time. (Please use standard array or point buy if you choose to do so, and no homebrew.)

🎲 However, you do not need any supplies to play, as our wonderful DMs and regular players can share premade character sheets, supplies, dice, and miniatures if needed. But you're more than welcome to bring all of your own loot or purchase some on location if you so desire!

📌 This event is scheduled from 1:00pm to 5:00pm, with a short recess near the middle of the adventure, and snacks/refreshments are available for purchase from the shop. Our current location is R U Game? in Saline, MI - you’ll find our tables near the back of the store, although there may be other groups present so please check in with a DM/Host to confirm.

⌚ If you find this event is full you’re welcome to join the waitlist and Meetup.com will notify you if other members change their RSVP or can no longer attend, so keep an eye out for a notification or email closer to the date of the event. We ask that you ensure you have a reservation confirmed on this event before attending, as each table can only accommodate a limited number of players.

👋 Be sure to join our Discord server for the latest updates, asking questions, and to stay in touch with the community: https://discord.gg/FNdvtTkdc5

Adventure awaits!

📢 Calling all adventurers for TTRPG Open Play: Shadowdark RPG!

*Current Adventure:*
*“Deep in a wasteland cleaved by a sierra of ebon mountains, a young woman was unshakeable in her faith in the Great Scorpion of Khemet. She dwelled as a scribe among the priestesses of the Scorpion Temple, chronicling tales and composing songs of the venomous faithful as they marched toward the glorious Final Age.*
*Then, on a night soft with chanting and prayer, a purple worm burst from the walls of the temple, devouring the young bard. However, she did not perish, but rather emerged from the titanic worm as an undead sorceress. Generations later, the Worm-Witch’s song still echoes across the wastes, luring in mortals with the promise of faith and fortune…”*
