They’ve been on hiatus a little while, but D&D Encounters, our weekly in-store Dungeons & Dragons game, returns in mid-August with an all-new edition! Play the newest D&D with our GM every week, or drop in week-to-week when you have a chance, as long as there’s room, you can come to play!
Have your own 1st level character you’ve built with the new rules? That’s great! No character, never played before? Pick up one of the pregenerated characters and give it a shot. All you need is a pencil and some dice, and in a pinch, we can spot you both of those.
Encounters begins on Thursday, August 21st at 7 PM. We have room for six players at the table, so we suggest calling ahead on the day of Encounters to put your name on the list to play that night. Players should get to the store by 6:45 so the game can start right at 7.
The first set of Encounters is based on Hoard of the Dragon Queen, the first in a series of dragon-based adventures that will kick off the new line.
In an audacious bid for power the Cult of the Dragon, along with its dragon allies and the Red Wizards of Thay, seek to bring Tiamat from her prison in the Nine Hells to Faerun. To this end, they are sweeping from town to town, laying waste to all those who oppose them and gathering a hoard of riches for their dread queen. The threat of annihilation has become so dire that groups as disparate as the Harpers and Zhentarim are banding together in the fight against the cult. Never before has the need for heroes been so desperate.
