New GM Game Day: Dungeons Crawl Classics, People of the Pit
Details
The GMs from our How to GM Class will have their course culminate in them running their own October Game Day.
For New GM Game Day, each game has one seat reserved for an experienced prechosen Guild GM coach, a classmate from their course, and potentially a +1 GM guest in order for our new GMs to feel the most comfortable running for their first game. You may see players in a game's attendee list before guild-wide RSVPs open.

ABOUT THE ADVENTURE
It has been years since the last virgin was sacrificed: and now the pit beast awakens once more! Every generation it stumbles forth on undulating tentacles from its resting place deep below the great ravine, its towering blubbery mass ravaging the land before returning to slumber for decades. But this time is different. The Great Beast strikes with intelligence: bands of faceless gray-robed men emerge from the tenebrous depths, herding the beast’s roaming tentacles before them. The enigmatic people of the pit live despite the passage of ages! The earth shakes each night as they herd the primordial tentacles ever further, while the villagers ask: is any man brave enough to put the sword to this menace?
ABOUT THE SYSTEM
Ready to roll some dice, fight weird monsters, and maybe die gloriously?
Dungeon Crawl Classics is a fast-paced, old-school-inspired fantasy roleplaying game published by Goodman Games. Designed to capture the weird, gritty, and gonzo energy of early tabletop RPGs, DCC blends lethal dungeon crawls, strange magic, and heroic destiny with a heavy-metal-meets-sword-and-sorcery vibe.
Join us for a one-shot adventure in Dungeon Crawl Classics (DCC) — a wild, rules-light fantasy RPG where anything can happen and probably will.
