Description

You've conquered character creation! You've improved your improvisational imagination! Now, it's time to triumph over trials together with teammates! Join us as we apply our acting skills into the ever-changing, ever-creative, ever-awesome world of role-playing games! In Role With It, we'll use funny co-creation games to sculpt our improv skill set. We'll delve deeper into what makes a character tick and talk, while remaining engaging to watch and play. All of this will be undergirded and overlaid with the relevancy of responding in real games we'll be playing together. You'll design and develop a character and then walk them through a world with your fellow players, trying to use your wits to roll with the doom of the dice! If you'd like to come create a world of fun with us, Role With It!!! You must have taken an acting or improv class before you may take this class.
