After Hours: Goblins & Glazes

Well met, adventurer! Stay a while and listen! An evening of art and (<i>rules lite</i>) adventure await us. Guests will paint pottery while playing heroes of yore as they save villagers, vanquish monsters, and recover fabulous riches, or get incapacitated trying (<i>the heroes, not the guests</i>).<div><div><br></div><div><b>Date</b>: Saturday, October 25th, 2025</div><div><b>Time</b>: 7:00 pm-10:00 pm</div><div><b>Price</b>: $10* per player</div><div><b>Max</b>: 8 players</div><div><i>*Pottery is not included admission price.</i></div><div><div><br></div></div><div><b>Restrictions</b>: This is an "adult swim" event (<i>18+</i>). Please feel free to bring food/drinks, but no oily/greasy foods (<i>it's bad for bisque</i>). Alcoholic beverages will requires a waiver.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Questions &amp; Answers:</b></div><div>1) "So what&nbsp;exactly&nbsp;are we playing?"</div><div>This game will be very loosely based on Dungeons &amp; Dragons open license, in that it will be d20, it will have classes, stat blocks, rolling dice, etc., but it will also be "rules lite". Players will be choosing from customizable premade "stat blocks", with rules on paper that will tell you everything you need to play. Everything you will need to play will be provided by Imagine Studios.</div><div><br></div><div>2) "What does rules lite mean?"</div><div>It means you don't have to have played table-top games before to join. You don't even have to own any rulebooks to play. Mostly, we're going to be having fun and playing for the laughs and the experience, while we paint.</div><div><br></div><div>3) "How much of a commitment are we talking?"</div><div>Though we are absolutely open to the idea of a full on "campaign", for now the plan is a fun "one-shot" adventure to introduce players to the flow of play. If everything goes well, we'll set up another one in a month.</div><div><div><br></div><div>4) "Why am I paying to play a tabletop game?"</div><div>We need to pay for our assistant who will help with glazing materials, lights, music, clean-up, etc. There's also props, figurines, and door prizes! I'm hoping to make this as entertaining as possible, with more than what you can expect in your living room.</div><div><br></div></div><div>5) "Will I have to bring anything?"</div><div>Dice if you have some. Probably something to write with is a good idea, too, but these will also be provided.</div><div><br></div><div>6) "How will I get the rules?"</div><div>You will receive a page with your character's stat block, including all the basic rules for play, via e-mail before the game. You can "fill in the blanks" to make the character your own.</div><div><br></div><div>7) "Wait! What are these characters you keep talking about?"</div><div>They are the hero you will be playing. We're planning on a group of up to 8 players, each playing their own hero. We'll need a good mix of characters to make sure the heroes have a chance of succeeding.</div><div><br></div><div>The 4 character types:</div><div>The Warrior.</div><div>The Rogue.</div><div>The Wizard.</div><div>The Priest.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>
