About this event
Join us for an unforgettable day of Dungeons & Dragons adventuring. Put your courage, cunning and wits to the test and embark on a thrilling journey of classic D&D. Pick from a selection of classic, pre-made characters - Fighter, Wizard, Cleric or Rogue, and immerse yourself in a whole day's exploration of dungeons, wilderness, and deathtraps, at Leamington's Royal Pug's private function room. All you need is your imagination!
Investigate and neutralise the various threats emanating from the Caves of Chaos, a network of caverns, inhabited by a variety of monstrous creatures, including goblins, orcs, and other classic D&D monsters. The adventure emphasises exploration, combat and problem-solving, offering a variety of challenges that can be approached in multiple ways. But of course, there's more to face, and adventure awaits!
Two, three-hour chapters run by our professional Games Masters (GMs), designed for maximising interaction and excitement. Three tables of up to five players, and each chapter will run by a different GM.

Novices / improvers: Enjoy D&D in its purest classic form, of high excitement and adventure, guided through rules and gameplay by excperienced, and professional GMs.
