Calling all quest-seekers! What do collaborative roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons and writing have to do with each other? Quite a lot, as you’ll discover! In this class, we will explore rich, fantastical worlds; create complex, driven characters; and learn how to hone our plot points into stories that the bards will sing of for ages to come. We will study tricks for tackling that fearsome beast known as writer’s block, and find answers for age-old riddles like “How do I make a believable backstory for my character?” and “How do I make my story a page-turner?” In the mornings, we will hone our storytelling craft with prompts, workshop time, and in-class writing. In the afternoons, we will use what we learned to forge our own story together in the world of Dungeons & Dragons by playing the game.
