Gallivant -DMAC Quest

On April 18th from 11-7 you can join one of our talented GMs on an oneshot adventure @Arthole in Canton.

We'd prefer if you'd buy an advance ticket, but there should be seats available if you show up in the morning. We are starting with selling 3 D&D Adventures, but we will be adding more according to demand.

GMs will lead you on a oneshot adventure through systems old and new, with pre-written characters available for each story. You don’t need anything to play at any of our tables - just bring yourself! You are welcome to bring dice, pencils and paper too if you wish, but equipment will be provided. We recommend that people bring a packed lunch, but there are also several cafes and supermarkets in the area.

Please bear in mind any content warning or setting descriptions provided for each game, as well as if it is friendly to beginner players. We have tried to be as clear as possible to the content in the adventures. Though every game takes place in the realm of fiction, we understand some themes or events in our games will be upsetting or might feel in some way close to real-life. We will have processes in place on the day to make sure you have a clear line of communication with your GMs about your limits and triggers, called The Lines and Veils process.

---Q&A---

11-7 sounds like a long day! Won’t that be tiring?

The timings were chosen to give you the most optimum oneshot experience, with two breaks to give your brain a rest, to drink and eat, and multiplie shorter breaks for your comfort. Your tables GM will work with the players to create the most comfortable experience possible for the unique needs of your table. Don't be afraid to go at your own pace. Your game will finish some time from 6-7.

We've run this once before, and we got positive responses about the pace of play.

When should I arrive?

Please arrive promptly from 11-11.20. We won’t turn you away if you are late, but we can’t promise the game will wait for you if you are very late.

Can we book as a group?

Of course! Please be careful to book the exact amount of tickets you need in one go, if you can, to make sure you and your friends get to play on the same table if that’s what you’d like to do.

Can I bring food into the venue, and eat during play?

Yes, you can! We only ask that you be respectful to the venue and the GM and try to be as clean and tidy as possible.

What are levels? I'm a beginner, will I struggle?

In D&D, levels describe the level of supernatural ability the players have, and the power of the monsters is adjusted accordingly. It goes from 1-20, and there is a slight increase in complexity to characters as you accrue more levels, but overall the game stays the same. Level 1-6 remain fairly beginner friendly. If you are nervous, I recommend picking an unleveled or low level adventure. No matter what level you play at, or DMs are expecting inexperienced people at the table and will help you make the most of your character. TTRPGs are not competitive games, they are collaborative!

Venue is totally step free, with a small incline at the entrance. We have two ungendered toilets, with one of them being wheelchair friendly. We're located on a main bus route with regular public transport stopping within a 1 minute walk of the venue. Trains are 10 minutes away by foot.

Have a look at what takes your fancy below. Please make sure you book the ticket with the same title as the game you wish to play!
