I would like to join your group!
Hey! That's awesome and I cannot wait to meet you! Before you shoot me an email telling me about you, have a quick read below and if you're still on board, fire me a message.
Online Stream
I run an online stream and attending players should be aware that they will be on camera for all the unwashed masses to laugh and jeer at.
The best part about this is that you can watch past episodes of my game to decide if my game is your jam.
Adult Game
I do run youth oriented games but sufficed to say I require attendees at my regular seasonal games to be 19 or older.
What do you cost?
When you're coming to my regular game, "payment" is your presence and playership.
If it's your first session, you are expected to provide the table with a housewarming present.
You will be judged harshly for your choice in house warming present. I may hold your choice against you. Harshly.
Intake & Schedule
I operate two weekly seasonal campaigns that begin October 1st and end May 31.
Games (and their respective streams) run from 6pm till 9/10pm Mondays and Wednesdays.
To be a part of my regular seasonal campaigns, keep an eye on the Okanagan Dungeons & Dragons Facebook group where I will post when I am seeking players through September.
I try to include past players as well as new players each year.
One Shots
I write single session modules when the inspiration strikes and am always seeking interested players to playtest my ideas with.
This means you may be credited as a playtester if the module is released, although there are no royalties or benefits beyond having your name in the modules if you wish.
As with my seasonal campaigns, if you would like to be involved in my one shot modules, keep an eye upon the Okanagan Dungeons & Dragons Facebook group for seating calls.
Expectations
As with any social circle, I expect you to be house broken, and well enough behaved respective of the chemistry surrounding you.
I expect players to know their respective rules or know well enough how to look them up so we're not delaying game for reference.
I expect players to be communicative and honest when it comes to their expectations from a game.
If this is your first time, I expect you to do your unapologetic best and appreciate the support of a sincere group of like minded players surrounding you.
If you are a veteran, I expect you to enjoy the game and save commentary and criticisms for the end where I will implore and listen diligently, and debate till the early morn if it behooves.
I expect players to be make the concerted effort in being respectful of each others boundaries and limits. Your fun ends where someone elses comfort begins.
What should I bring?
Food, drink, a charge cord for your device (we have spares) and if you feel it necessary, a copy of your relevant rules.
How long are games?
Games are typically ~3 hours.
I'm New to D&D.
You're in for a treat, but you'll be spoiled ever after.
We've had and taught plenty of new players and we welcome you aboard.
How do I create my character?
When you join, you're provided an invite link to a D&D Beyond campaign.
Once you've created an account, you can create a character as you see fit just like you would a character in any digital role playing game.
You'll be able to manage your character during game with ease using your mobile device. Don't forget a charge cord.
Unless otherwise specified in my campaign, you may use any canon content available in D&D Beyond.
You may not be an orphan. Someone, somewhere loves your character and wants to see them for the holidays.
You may not be an evil alignment. You are free to act as you see fit in the game, within reason.
What sort of play style do you deliver?
I offer a mix mash of thespian exposition and raw tactical gameplay.
I believe in everyone having fun and do not demand any play style from players.
I write stories in the Forgotten Realms canon and use existing characters to involve the players in a world anyone can reference easily.
Do you sell D&D?
No. I do not resell any materials.
I provide the service of operating the game for those who wish to play. If you wish to purchase D&D gear, you can visit https://www.quantumgames.ca/ in Kelowna where they provide everything you need and great advice.
Can I hire you?
Yes. If you wish to have a private game scheduled for a number of attendees, we can work something out. Typically I ask $50 per person for a 3 hour session and will run games for up to 6 players regardless of prior experience.
I have another question!
No problem. Feel free to email me at dooley@dungeonmaster.ca
