We believe that the best way to forge lasting friendships is through travel and adventure - and so we decided to bring our community together and do exactly that! Tapping into the magic of RPGs, LeafCo has prepared a meet-up session where you'll be able participate on an epic roadtrip while sitting comfortably in an amazing space, surrounded by amazing people :) Event Schedule: 18:30 - Round table chat: get to know our project and your fellow participants, in a relaxed convo about anything and everything. 18:45 - Short energizer: you'll meet your peeps by participating in a short social game designed to connect your fellow players and boost your energy levels :) 18:55 - Let the games begin: Create your character’s backstory, and share with the circle. We’ll take care of everything else, so no need to be prepared at all - don’t hesitate to be spontaneous! 19:00 - the Quest is on: Your adventure commences, with your merry band of fellow participants - don’t worry, our Game Masters are true pros, and they’ll guide your group through dangerous dungeons, lively taverns and long discussions on how to beat that orc. 20:45 - Round table chat - reflect on your journey, exchange IG handles, and get ready to hit a bar or a restaurant with your fellow adventurers - you’ll be bffs by then! What you'll be playing: ALONG THE ROAD TO EVERYWHERE is a post-apocalyptic roadtrip tabletop role-playing game. It sets the aesthetics and ideals of the Beatnik and Hippie movements of the mid 20th century against the backdrop of a vast, magical wasteland. It’s relatively low-key and role-play focused, dealing with ideas of community and regrowth. Part of the idea is to tell the stories that happen between larger stories—between dots on the map. You don't have to have any knowledge of RPGs, or have previous experience of D&D or another tabletop role-playing game. You don't have to bring or prepare anything. We can lend you everything you need including a pre-generated character.In this meet-up we will explore the incredible effect that RPGs have as a practice to know ourselves better, as well as the friends you'll meet on your journey - we've prepared an adventure meet-up that will allow you to socialize, have fun, and discover a whole new world!
