About this Event

Been curious about Dungeons & Dragons but hesitant to play without knowing the game?

Here's your chance to learn the basics in a fun, inclusive environment! Side Quest Books & Games founder and long-time Dungeon Master Caroline will guide you through the rules, help you make a character, and get you ready to dive in sword-first. (Plus, you'll get a free set of dice.)

No need to prepare or bring anything, just show up!


ABOUT YOUR DUNGEON MASTER

Caroline (she/her) has been playing and GMing TTRPGs for over ten years. She loves homebrewing adventures, she strives to create safer and more inclusive gaming environments for everyone, and she's never met an NPC she couldn't make just a liiiiittle more deliciously unlikeable. She also owns Side Quest Books & Games.
