D&D One-Shot and History Lesson
We’re finally doing it!!
Thursday, March 30
6- 9 p.m.
Gullixson Library
Did you know that in a basement just over 6 miles away from Luther Seminary, the very first fantasy roleplaying game was played on April 17, 1971?
This first gaming session would be developed into a set of house rules that would eventually be expanded on and published in 1974 as a set of brown booklets called Dungeons & Dragons.
Nathan Lyke is a senior at Luther Sem, and a D&D enthusiast and game-history archivist.
Come for a brief history of how this game came to be through historical objects (including a model castle that belonged to the game’s co-creator Dave Arneson), ask questions, and play a “one-shot” session in the style these original players used when the game was merely a loose set of house rules.
No experience is necessary, and even seasoned players will likely learn some new historical points of interest about the game!
Jimmy Johns sandwiches and chips will be provided!
Contact Nathan Lyke with questions: nlyke001@luthersem.edu
