D&D5E Rules:

We use the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons, even if we are playing a offshoot game, these rules will still largely apply. YOU DO NOT NEED TO KNOW ALL OF THEM, THERE ARE A LOT. You can show up without ever having looked at them, and still have a fantastic time. This is just if you want an overview of how the game works. In very simple terms, if you want to just show up and say what you want to do in a situation, and roll some dice (which will be provided) then your good to go!

Character Creation:

Now, if pretending to be a Dwarf, or even an Orb rolling around sounds like your jam, then you need a character sheet! The link below will give you a walkthrough of all the (pre outlined) things you can be. Let your imagination free, and browse like a kid in a candy shop. No characters suiting your fancy? Talk to a Dungeon Master! If you want to be a flying chair named Nedward that doesn't want to live, or even knows why it's actually alive in the first place, you can! Just work it out with your DM. PS: they usually want you to have arms.
