Dungeons and Dragons for Adults 18+
2024-11-23 12:00 - 17:00 | Capitola Library, 2005 Wharf Road, Capitola, CA, 95010, United States
Dungeons and Dragons for Adults 18+
2nd & 4th Saturdays, 12-5pm, beginning May 25

For adults 18+, step into the realm of Dungeons & Dragons! Whether you’re a newbie or a veteran adventurer, join us every 2nd and 4th Saturday for an epic afternoon of storytelling.

Be a bard, wizard, or barbarian, and tackle creative challenges with new friends. No experience needed, just your creativity!

Let the adventure begin!

No prior experience is necessary. This program is for adults 18+.
What is Dungeons and Dragons?
D&D is one of many tabletop role-playing games, in which players create and control fictional characters within a shared imaginary world. A Game Master guides the story and sets the scene, while the players make decisions for their characters, rolling dice to determine outcomes. TTRPGs encourage creativity, teamwork, and storytelling as players collaborate to overcome challenges and complete quests.
Modern D&D has veered away from the combat-heavy game it used to be. While it’s still possible to spend hours attacking monsters and finding loot, many groups now tell stories of mystery, intrigue, horror, or whimsy.
Who are the game masters?
This event is organized by Jeltje van Baren (yinnah@yahoo.com), who learned to play a few years ago and has been creating games for new players ever since. She will be assisted by a rotating group of diverse GMs from the local TTRPG community, all of whom are used to patiently explaining the rules and keeping the game fun for everyone.
