Dungeons & Dragons

Dungeons and Dragons: For Newbies For new players who are interested in learning and playing, here is a list of expectations on how to act and what to bring: Bring your own character sheet (filled out completely), dice, and a pencil. A digital character works as well. Get in touch with rules by reading the books or watching the videos. We mostly play with 2014 rules. A Player’s Handbook is recommended. Take the sessions, characters, and story seriously, but still have fun. Don’t be a murder hobo (Murder hobo is when someone wants to kill everything. Don’t do that.) Your actions have consequences. Focus on the sessions and story for a more comprehensive and fun experience. If you make a character, they can die. Be creative with your actions, not stupid with them. Feel free to ask the players or Dungeon Master a question. Missing sessions is okay; the players or DM (Dungeon Master) are able to provide a summary. Don’t me mean, rude, or derogatory to our players or DM. In session, feel free to speak up if you’re feeling left out. Being quiet is alright, but participation is key. Info for seasoned layers Bring dice, a pencil, and a ready-to-play character (Digital or paper). Take it seriously, but have fun. Don’t kill everything. Your actions have consequences. We play in a non-traditional way. 2014 rules are preferred, 2024 rules are also allowed. Be creative, not stupid. Don’t be mean Feel free to ask questions. Missing a session is alright, we can summarize. Nobody’s a main character. Adventurers ages 12-18 must come prepared with completed character sheet, ready for game play. We meet in the Jonathan Trumbull Library Teen Room every Thursday from 5-7 pm (unless cancelled). (Note to parents/guardians: Please pick up teens prior to the library's prompt closing time of 8:00 pm.)
