Class Overview
Made With You in Mind
Tabletop roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons, Monster of the Week, and Warhammer involve hours of character building, collaborative storytelling, and imaginative freedom. Kids love TTRPGs because they don't just watch stories—they live them. We take that same thrilling energy and use it to build writing skills in this one-of-a-kind class!
Gamers Write! is designed for middlers who want to craft characters, weave stories, and play out spine-tingling adventures, all while building writing confidence.
Participants will use our custom world-system to craft complex characters (complete with backstories) and engage in gamelike scenarios. While kids won't complete an actual campaign, they will use their writing skills to engage with our unique world in fascinating ways. This is the perfect writing class for the passionate gamer!
Highlights include
- Interactive Storytelling: Write as your own custom character in an epic, monster-hunting adventure
- Dice-Driven Drama: Learn how rolling dice can change the story—just like in your favorite role-playing games
- Creative Writing: Develop character backstories, describe action scenes, and team up with other young writers
- Creative Problem-Solving: Think on your feet, investigating mysteries and making choices
The only equipment needed to play (and write) is a pair of six-sided dice. We'll provide the rest!
The Best Part: This class is repeatable. While the game structure remains the same, the dynamic of new participants (and their varying characters) makes for fresh gameplay each time!
Spots are limited in this popular class. Register early to save your spot in the creative adventure. Gamers, write!
Our roleplaying system has fantasy elements such as magic, fantastical creatures, monsters, weapons, and perilous action.
Some activities in class include use of a private Padlet board.
