Roll the Dice!

virtual dungeons and dragons adventure

We might still be wearing masks and social distancing, but you can still go on adventures with an intrepid crew of heroes with our virtual Dungeons & Dragons sessions.

Join our Discord server to connect with other players, register for virtual D&D sessions, and chat about gaming in general. Learn to use the free websites Roll20 and D&D Beyond to play with us and even set up your own games with friends.

Starting in 2022, we will have one in-person game and one virtual game a month. Virtual sessions will continue as usual; registration will be required for in-person sessions. 

E-mail our teen librarian Krista with questions about our in-person or virtual sessions. Have some questions about Discord, D&D Beyond, or Roll20? Visit the sites below!

More Information

For our new players who want to read a little about the basics of D&D, check out this handy guide of links and explanations from D&D Beyond.

Our current campaign is called "Guards! Guards!" This is a homebrew campaign set in the magically flying city-state of Lothian. This campaign is designed to be flexible and adaptable, with linked short adventures planned by a number of different Dungeon Masters but all taking place in the same world. Player characters are all Lothian Royal Guards who go on a variety of exciting missions. Read more about our world-building here.

The "Guards! Guards!" campaign starts at Level 3, and you level up the more you play! You can bring your own Level 3 character to start, or you can ask for a pre-generated character that I have available. We use D&D Beyond for our digital character sheets; after you join the library's campaign, you will also have access to the full digital library of D&D books.

You must be a member of our Discord server and have participated in at least three sessions of gaming with us. Then, you can fill out this Google form to apply and describe the adventure you'd like to run. 

The majority of our programs are virtual through the end of 2021. In 2022, we will be meeting in-person once a month on a Saturday from 1-4. Spots are limited and registration is required. Masks must be worn at all in-person programs.
