The Raven City:
Main Campaign
The main campaign: an episodic, ongoing story with a pool of regular players.
​
2 drop-in spots available every session for new players to try out the game.
​
Adults, and kids in school year 9 or above.
New Players
If you've never played in our library games before, please come as a drop-in player. You are welcome to any regular "The Raven City" session. Please come as a drop-in rather than booking a space.
You must be an adult, or a child in year 9 or above. There are TWO spots available on a first come, first served basis. You will be provided with a premade character, pencil, and dice.
​​
PLEASE NOTE:
Drop-in players MUST play a premade character provided by the Dungeon Master.​

Become a Regular Player
If you have played in a session already as a drop-in and you wish to keep playing, you may request to be a regular player. This will allow you to book onto game sessions to reserve a spot and you may play your own character (subject to Dungeon Master approval). See Character Creation Rules for further information.
​
PLEASE NOTE: Once you are a regular player, please do not arrive as a drop-in. Those spots are for new players only.
1. Character Creation
Create a character and ensure they comply with the Character Creation Rules.​
​
If you're totally new to creating a character, try checking out the Resources page, or come along at the end of a session to chat.
​
PLEASE NOTE: The Dungeon Master is the final arbiter of the rules. If they deny your character, it's only because it won't be a good fit for this particular game.
2. Character Approval
Once you have a character, submit them for approval by the Dungeon Master.
This is so we can double-check that the character is compliant with the rules and will be a good fit for the campaign.
​
PLEASE NOTE: The Dungeon Master is the final arbiter of the rules. If they deny your character, it's only because it won't be a good fit for this particular game.
3. Book Session
If your character is approved, you can book onto any Raven City session.
​​​​​​
The DM is the final arbiter of the rules and the players.
​​
PLEASE NOTE: bookings are subject to approval by the Dungeon Master.
​
Given that spaces are limited, please ensure you are able to attend a session prior to booking.
Book Your Space
Once you have been accepted as a regular player, you may sign up to any Raven City campaign session.​​
​
Because we have such a large pool of regular players, booking is via a waitlist.
​
-
At the end of each month, a new set of available dates will go up on the website.
-
If you are available to play, book onto the waitlist by 23:59 on the Friday of the previous week.
-
A week before the session (by 23:59 on the Sunday of the previous week), the six chosen players will be selected from the pool of available players and notified.
-
Who gets to play is based on who is available, who has played recently, and which players work well together.
-
If someone then subsequently drops out due to unforeseen circumstances, another player will then be selected from the waitlist and notified.
