MORE DETAILS
This series of one-shots is open to experienced players (no tutorial provided). Each session is it's own one-shot but there is a loose arc that ties them all together. You can join the series at anytime, for one session or multiple, and don't need to have played any other sessions. Each session will open with a recap of the previous session(s) so you will have all the information you need. If you plan to attend multiple sessions be sure to purchase a package pricing plan to get a 20% discount and use it when you sign up. Also be sure to check the box at checkout to let us know you would like to sign up for all 6 with your pricing plan and we will take care of signing you up for each session on our end. If you do not check this box you will need to sign up for each session individually.
​
We will have pre-made characters that are specific to the series to create the best story cohesion, but there are some opportunities to customize them. If you sign up for all 6 you can choose to "adopt" a character as your own that you will play each time. They will start at level 4 and end at level 6 and you can make all the character decisions when they level up. We also try to keep some details open ended for you to add flavor to the character.
​
We have 2 choices for character sheets:
#1 - DnDBeyond.com on an electronic device that you provide and connects to the internet (computer, tablet, or phone). After signing up, we will send out the link via email to claim the character. This could be especially helpful if you want to play a spellcaster as managing spell lists and slots on paper can be tedious, but certainly doable if you prefer.
#2 - We can provide a printed character sheet and spell cards to organize spells
We will also provide dice, trays, and minis, but you are also welcome to bring your own too.
Light snacks and drinks are also provided.
​
A note on safety tools
Role playing games can present challenging topics or situations. This is an adult only game and we expect adult themes and situations to come up during play, though we never allow sexual assault by characters or NPCs (or by any humans in the room at Catalyst for that matter). Please let us know if you have any subject sensitivities during checkout. We have never had any harmful situations and don't anticipate having any for this game, but we want everyone to feel safe and comfortable, creating a more joyful experience for everyone! In the unlikely event that you feel uncomfortable with a situation in the game, we will also implement the "X card" safety tool at the table. Flash it anytime and the story will fade to black with no questions. After the game, you can share with Jessica or the game master any specifics that could help us prevent the situation in the future, and in any format that you are comfortable sharing (in person, email, etc.)
