About this Event
Forget dungeons and dragons... it’s time for starships and laser blasters!
Love the mechanics of Dungeons & Dragons but fancy swapping traditional swords and castles for starships, laser rifles, and alien planets? Step into the wild, high-octane universe of Dark Matter by Mage Hand Press for an exclusive 3rd-level Sci-Fi D&D adventure at Liquid Light Brewery Taproom!
Dark Matter takes the classic 5e rules you know and love (or are excited to learn!) and launches them into deep space. Expect high-stakes starship dogfights, futuristic tech, magic-powered hyperdrives, and bizarre cosmic monstrosities, all paired with Liquid Light’s fantastic craft beers and relaxed taproom vibes.
Whether you're a seasoned 5e player seeking a fresh spin on the system or a curious newcomer wanting an action-packed introduction to tabletop gaming, this one-shot is built for fast-paced, cinematic fun.
If you like Guardians of the Galaxy mashed with Hitchhikers of the Galaxy then this is your type of session.
Why You Should Join:
- The Same D&D You Love, Powered by Sci-Fi: Uses standard 5e rules, so you can jump right in without learning a completely new system. You'll just be casting spells from a blaster or piloting a starship!
- 100% Beginner-Friendly: Never rolled a d20 before? No problem! Our expert Dungeon Master will teach you everything at the table in minutes.
- Zero Prep Required: Ready-to-play 3rd-level Sci-Fi character sheets, dice, and player reference guides are all provided.
- Solo Adventurers Welcome: Over half of our attendees sign up solo! Walk in on your own and leave with a whole new crew of spacefarers.
- Craft Beer & Cosmic Vibe: Enjoy Liquid Light’s amazing selection of local craft brews while exploring the final frontier.
