How does this work?

Hello! We play D&D 5e on Wednesday nights, 7-9 pm, in-person at Comic Quest in Lake Forest. If you are looking to join one of CQ’s Wednesday night D&D 5e groups, here’s what you need to know.
First, join our Discord Server, which is the primary way that we organize and discuss regularly scheduled D&D groups and events. ** Once there, please look at Start Here for general information. Link to our Discord server: https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD
No experience with D&D is required, but different tables and DMs may have preferences. If you are interested in learning how to play there are “learn to play” sessions approximately once a month.
Our games are frequently full. Whether there is room at any given table changes week to week, so you have to post a message on the channel of any table you think you might be interested in to see if there are currently openings, as priority goes to regularly attending players. Some tables have PINNED information about their campaigns (click on the push-pin looking icon on the top ribbon of each campaign). Also, we often run a 1-shot table which is open to new players.
Facebook Group
What do I need to play?
Please check in with the DM of the table/game you are joining for these details, but some helpful items:

A character sheet (either your own or the pre-generated)
A writing utensil (Pencil, Pen)
Appropriate dice for your character
Appropriate source material for your character (basic book, Players Handbook, ability cards, whatever floats your boat)
A miniature (optional, but helpful)

We also have a Discord server: https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD](https://discord.gg/vj2xcfD?fbclid=IwAR3KLXW32PY__0KkFJjOwkw0HKpYYQMb-Cgr5HUSvDvXbl-SMZOmS0uaKXo)

Book Club - Eden II
2024-08-10 12:00 - 13:00 (Asia/Shanghai)
Each month we select a notable graphic novel for the book club. It is 25% Off to everyone all month. At the end of the month we meet to discuss.

Eden II
by Kenny Wroten
Meeting to discuss: Saturday Aug 10. Noon.
Eisner Nominated:
BEST GRAPHIC ALBUM—NEW
In the grungy, punk-inflected world Kenny Wroten creates, a cast of disaffected young characters struggle to find their purpose in life. Faced with a dying Earth and numbingly useless jobs, protagonists Ellis and Dr. Otis Heck invent an immersive virtual reality game, Eden II. But when Heck betrays Ellis and sells the game to a mysterious corporation, the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur. As each chapter highlights a new character in the ensemble, the game’s impact grows as the world becomes consumed by fantasy.
Coming off the heels of their acclaimed queer comics Cannonball and Crimes, Eden II is Wroten’s magnum opus, establishing them as a breakout graphic novelist. Philosophical, sarcastic, self-assured, Eden II is a vital work of the moment that positions Wroten alongside recent comics luminaries like Emily Carroll, Caroline Cash, Isabel Greenberg, Melanie Gilman, and Tillie Walden. Reminiscent of the stylized angst of Gregg Araki and Jamie Babbit’s works, Wroten’s imagery in Eden II reflects the blighted pastiche of Andrei Tarkovsky’s Stalker―and they have suffused that pastiche with a dark sense of humor and technologically enhanced moral ambiguity.
