The Kansas City D&D Meetup represents a small portion of the roleplaying community in the greater metropolitan area. We are players and DMs from all walks of life, representing decades of experience through at least four incarnations of the D&D system. Anyone with the desire to play or run a campaign is welcome in the hallowed circle of the Meetup :)


Quick Questions and Answers

What does the KCDD Meetup offer?

-We offer a safe, supervised environment to experience D&D (or any roleplaying system). The Meetup Organizer and Assistant Organizers provide a structure for the Meetup to smoothly operate and assistance when needed.

How do I get started?

-Players: A quick look at the Campaigns page would be the first step if you're looking to join an existing campaign. Once you find a campaign you like, contact the DM to request a seat at the session. He/she should contact you in return with the specifics of the campaign and what time you should show up.

If you are new to D&D, Wizards of the Coast has provided a free test drive for the fourth edition of the game with quick-start rules, two adventures and a character builder for levels 1-3.

-DMs: If you intend on beginning a new campaign, contacting an Organizer for more information would be a good idea. We're always looking for talented DMs to create more roleplaying opportunities for our community!

What's a Mega Meetup?

-If you check out our Calendar, a Mega Meet is when the community comes together at the Kansas City Public Library in downtown KC to enjoy some D&D. Mega Meetups are held on the second floor mezzanine where you can get down to some serious recreation with other roleplaying enthusiasts. Mega Meetups are usually scheduled on Saturdays and start between 10:30AM and 11:00AM and end by 5:00PM when the library closes. Contact your DM regarding session length/rules.

What should I bring?

-Generally speaking you'll need at least paper and a pencil to participate in any campaign. Additional (and recommended) supplies include a set of your own dice, core rulebooks, character sheets, a miniature to represent your character, a beverage, and either food or money to get food during the session. Check with your DM or ask an Organizer for more specific supplies or questions regarding what you can/should bring.

Wait! You didn't answer all my questions!

-If you have further questions regarding the Meetup you can either post a reply to this thread in the general forum or email an Organizer directly. We'll do our best to answer whatever questions you may have :)
