January 10: Beginner Class- Off Until Further Notice

Sunday, January 10, 2021 at 2:00:00 PM River Market , Kansas City, MO

I think there are two logical formats that this event could take on in order to help people learn. One is having random people every week, like an open class. The other is a beginner friendly campaign where I try to hold on to the same people every week. The latter will benefit about four people. The former will allow many others to participate, and honestly that might work better for me while I am learning to DM. Game starts at 2:00. Be early. I have made my own pregenerated characters. Pick one based on who you are as a person. Your own natural talents will feed into role playing better that way. In order to find a group for yourself, go to the individual facebook pages of the gaming shops around town. That is an effective way of joining a table that needs players. Look for their extra pages called LFG (Looking for group) or RPG (Role Playing Game). Meetup is kind of a fluid hub of info, made up of players, but we are busy and our membership is ever changing. This may not be the only place that you need to go in order to connect with other players. Downtown: Level One Gameshop and Pawn & Pint Lee's Summit: Pulp Fiction Comics Independence: Game Cafe Overland Park: Tabletop Games I don't know if Liberty or Lawrence have a shop. If they do, I have not been there personally, and can't vouch for their D&D supplies. I feel like someone needs to get brave and open a St. Jo shop. There are enough random people seeing this for me to want to throw out advice or discussion topics in this space. So this week's advice- Quit the group if your DM seems like a narcissist. There is such a thing as a toxic DM. If you are still reading this long post, inexperienced players- -5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons -Meaningful story>mindless combat -Bring a sensible amount of maturity and consideration for teammates, (show-offs are amusing once or twice, but stupidity shouldn't be encouraged in the long run) -Have a pencil and dice Buy a Player's Handbook. This is vital. If you want to learn more about the D&D universe, there are several console and PC games available. I play Neverwinter. This will give you visuals of the classic places and races of the settings. The Forgotten Realms specifically. I recommend looking up the novels, either online (ebooks) or through the library (hardcover). This will give you more in depth knowledge on the cultures and typical personalities of the races. Wikipedia has lists of all of the novels. Pick one trilogy from one setting and go from there. You can use the website D&DBeyond to get started. It does the math for you and tells you some spells to choose from, but they intentionally exclude certain options in order to make you pay for the service- so not all of the races/subclasses/spells are available. Make sure to use the website for D&DBeyond. Apparently, the app is specifically for source books, if you have paid for access to any. I know this is rude AF but honestly please, if you are not new to D&D (you learned everything there is to know about d&d through podcasts or you played earlier editions and just want someone to teach you 5th Edition) this class isn't for you. I am trying to teach people that genuinely do not understand how all of this works, and need to have the etiquette and the story building and the mechanics and the technicalities explained. There are hundreds of youtube videos that will explain 5th edition.

This will give you visuals of the classic places and races of the settings. The Forgotten Realms specifically. I recommend looking up the novels, either online (ebooks) or through the library (hardcover). This will give you more in depth knowledge on the cultures and typical personalities of the races. Wikipedia has lists of all of the novels. Pick one trilogy from one setting and go from there. You can use the website D&DBeyond to get started. It does the math for you and tells you some spells to choose from, but they intentionally exclude certain options in order to make you pay for the service- so not all of the races/subclasses/spells are available. Make sure to use the website for D&DBeyond. Apparently, the app is specifically for source books, if you have paid for access to any. I know this is rude AF but honestly please, if you are not new to D&D (you learned everything there is to know about d&d through podcasts or you played earlier editions and just want someone to teach you 5th Edition) this class isn't for you. I am trying to teach people that genuinely do not understand how all of this works, and need to have the etiquette and the story building and the mechanics and the technicalities explained. There are hundreds of youtube videos that will explain 5th edition.

January 10: Beginner Class- Off Until Further Notice

Sunday, January 10, 2021 at 2:00:00 PM River Market , Kansas City, MO

I think there are two logical formats that this event could take on in order to help people learn. One is having random people every week, like an open class. The other is a beginner friendly campaign where I try to hold on to the same people every week. The latter will benefit about four people. The former will allow many others to participate, and honestly that might work better for me while I am learning to DM. Game starts at 2:00. Be early. I have made my own pregenerated characters. Pick one based on who you are as a person. Your own natural talents will feed into role playing better that way. In order to find a group for yourself, go to the individual facebook pages of the gaming shops around town. That is an effective way of joining a table that needs players. Look for their extra pages called LFG (Looking for group) or RPG (Role Playing Game). Meetup is kind of a fluid hub of info, made up of players, but we are busy and our membership is ever changing. This may not be the only place that you need to go in order to connect with other players. Downtown: Level One Gameshop and Pawn & Pint Lee's Summit: Pulp Fiction Comics Independence: Game Cafe Overland Park: Tabletop Games I don't know if Liberty or Lawrence have a shop. If they do, I have not been there personally, and can't vouch for their D&D supplies. I feel like someone needs to get brave and open a St. Jo shop. There are enough random people seeing this for me to want to throw out advice or discussion topics in this space. So this week's advice- Quit the group if your DM seems like a narcissist. There is such a thing as a toxic DM. If you are still reading this long post, inexperienced players- -5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons -Meaningful story>mindless combat -Bring a sensible amount of maturity and consideration for teammates, (show-offs are amusing once or twice, but stupidity shouldn't be encouraged in the long run) -Have a pencil and dice Buy a Player's Handbook. This is vital. If you want to learn more about the D&D universe, there are several console and PC games available. I play Neverwinter.
