Hail and well met, adventurer!
Embark on an epic odyssey into the realms of imagination with Dungeons & Dragons! This legendary tabletop role-playing game puts you in the hero's shoes, where danger lurks at every corner and glory awaits the brave. Unleash your creativity as you craft a unique character, wielding magic, swords, or wit to conquer treacherous dungeons, face vile monsters, and unravel mysteries beyond imagination. Collaborate with fellow adventurers, forging unbreakable bonds as you strategize, laugh, and overcome formidable challenges together. With boundless possibilities, exhilarating quests, and the power to shape worlds, Dungeons & Dragons is the ultimate adventure where legends are born, and heroes are made!
The 5th edition of D&D is a one-size-fits-all jack-of-all-trades system that can accommodate most styles of play, and it's the most commonly played RPG today.
Grab whichever character sheet on the right seems most appealing to you, and ask your DM to explain what all that stuff means. You don't need to understand all - or really any - of it to get going. Click the email link on the right to book a free session.
The videos below will give you a (slightly) more thorough overview of the game, albeit with some inevitable minor differences to how your next game will be played.
Below that, you'll find some sample level 1 character sheets.
The Basic Rules PDF is below that, after which are the "house rules" that I normally prefer to use in games. Playing fast and loose is an intrinsic part of the game, so don't mind the rules too much. That's the DM's job.
Yours is to roll dice and be merry.
Let's roll!

Join a campaign, or choose the world you want to explore:
The Forgotten Realms of Faerun on the world of Toril (after the sundering from its twin planet Abeir): Explore the Tolkienesque fantasy setting, built atop layers of ancient civilizations built by mystical elves and mysterious Netherese. Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter, Waterdeep, Icewind Dale, and the Red Wizards' mageocracy of Thay all exist here.
Eberron: A world named after one of the three Progenitor Dragons whose battle created it. Eberron became the ground, Khyber the Underdark, and Siberys the ring around it. Ride the lightning rail in this high-fantasy neo-noir steampunk pulp adventure after a century-long hot war turned cold by the mysterious cataclysm known as The Mourning.
Barovia, and other mist-beset Domains of Dread in the Shadowfell (also known as Ravenloft): Enter the perpetual nightmare of this classic Victorian gothic horror setting in a land, borne of the very sins of its Dread Lord and Master. He is the Ancient. He is the Land. You are merely a disobedient pawn on his chessboard.
The Feywild where laws of logic are the thrown out the window, tossed around by pixies, and may be bartered for a bracelet of your mother's shattered dreams. A landscape ruled by emotion. Everything is something else, but not unless it isn't. Hop along the grass with the white rabbit and hope a trip in the feywild ends shortly before hereafter is soon past dew.
Board a Spelljammer spaceship (like the ones in the BG3 trailer), explore the multiverse through the Astral Plane and hope you don't catch the attention of an infinitely large Dreadnought, or get hijacked by the eternally-warring psionic Mind Flayers and Gith, or crash into the world-sized remains of a forgotten dead god.
