Open-Ended
Team & Individual Challenge

Have you ever played D&D or wanted to play it? This challenge will take you or your team of 4 on D&D quests. They will not be full D&D campaigns but you will get to experience a taste of that world.

Quests
You will be given a quest and have to solve a problem. Quests will vary. You will have some tasks BUT your team may be expected to devise a solution to a problem and use books to create that solution. You may also be expected to create your own tasks for some steps.
Please note that original quest tasks are pre-planned BUT additional tasks are NOT. They are in response to your answers. Please be patient as I will have to think them up on the spot. Every game will be different so no two game threads will be the same (spying will not work out well for you here). I am DMing these in real-time. Yes, I may have lost my mind...

Characters, Skills & Levels
You will get to choose your own race & class before starting any quests. Everyone starts at a class level of 3 and as such has certain skills they can use. You will level up periodically. However, you can wow me with your solution to a problem and earn a level up. You can research class levels here: https://5e.tools/classes.html#barbari...

Deadlines
There are no deadlines as this is a self-paced challenge. I would prefer you to take your time and submit a well-thought-out response. Please note that this is a long challenge. It will take months, maybe a year or more depending on how fast you complete the quests. Your team can quit at any time by letting your mod know.

Signups
You may choose to sign up as an individual or for a team. If you sign up as a team, you can choose to sign up your own team or have one chosen for you. There will be no scores in this challenge. Please note this in your sign-up post.


Challenge Rules
📘No graphic novels, poetry, or cookbooks allowed.
📘Standard Rules Apply


Giving credit where it is due... These quests have been created using cards from the Deck of Many Quests. They are random and can be quite insane.

Shan ~A~ | 1248 comments If we can do both (since no two are the same and it's open ended), I'd like to join a team & have an individual thread.

If not, individual only (I may change this, since I don't know which I really prefer for this. 🤦🏽‍♀️)

Catsalive | 1475 comments D&D passed me by so I have no idea what to expect. So I'll live dangerously & sign up for both individual & team.


Jayme(theghostreader) (jaymetheghostreader) | 683 comments D&D stands for dungeons and dragons. It's a roleplaying game where you create a character and it involves rolling dice.


message 21: by Donna, Curator of Challenge Terrors (new)

Donna (dkflynn33) | 7437 comments Mod
Yes, but I have eliminated the dice rolling in my adventures. Too complicated but I wanted to give you a taste of it. I do hope you like it. You do get to create characters and go on quests.

All the solo players have threads that signed up so far. The teams that have formed themselves also have threads. People that need teams assigned will be assigned teams on the 28th and receive a team thread then.
