Dragons & Drafts

This is a one-shot adventure for Old School Essentials, which means the adventure will begin and end in the same session.

Event Details: This is an Old School Essentials adventure. This will be a mix of BECMI and AD&D – which means these are old school D&D rules being used.

BECMI stands for Basic, Expert, Companion, Master, and Immortal. These are rules that started out as ways to get people into Advanced D&D, but then expanded out into its own system for a more immersive experience and higher-level play.

Advanced D&D is the edition that followed original D&D and laid the groundwork for 3rd and 5th editions – the most popular editions of D&D.

The game will be held at Heliotrope and will be a one-shot for players who would like to see some of Dungeons & Dragons roots that led to the editions most played today!

This event runs from 5pm to 9pm on Saturday, September 23rd. The event takes place in the back garden behind Heliotrope, through the alley (rain or shine, the area is covered). The event may run past 9pm if all agree, however please make sure you close your tab and turn in your dishes/glasses prior to 9pm.

*Dragons & Drafts benefits local bars/breweries by bringing in customers during off-peak hours and we encourage players to purchase food and/or beer. To this end, players must be 21+ to participate in Dragons & Drafts events.

About Heliotrope:

We strive to cook and brew with as many local ingredients as possible, from produce grown within a few miles of the brewery, to barley harvested and malted here in Virginia. Our walls are hung with rotating local artwork, not televisions, and our taproom is set with community tables intended to promote conversation with friends, new and old, over a shared meal or a round of beers.
